Quarterly Financial Information Disclosure [Abstract]

Quarterly Financial Information

NOTE 20 - QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

The tables below present unaudited quarterly financial information and the footnotes correspond to the error descriptions in Note 1 - Organization, Business Description and Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements, except for the following:

m. The Company identified an error related to the timing and amount of stock-based compensation for restricted stock awards issued during 2021, impacting the quarterly periods within 2021.

n. During the preparation of the September 30, 2021 financial statements, the Company identified errors in its accounting for the January 21, 2021 lease described in Note 12 – Leases as the 273 Lease Agreement. In its original accounting, the Company concluded that the lease was an operating lease and used an incorrect discount rate to calculate the right-of-use asset and obligations under operating lease liabilities balances. The Company subsequently changed the discount rate on the lease and reclassified the lease as a finance lease, as the present value of the future cash flows associated with the lease exceeded substantially all of the fair value of the property. The Company has adjusted the balances associated with the lease from operating lease right-of-use asset to property and equipment, net and from obligations under operating lease liabilities to obligations under finance leases in the quarterly financial statements for March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021.

The following tables summarize the effect of the restatements on each affected financial statement line item as of the dates as indicated, impacting the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2021

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of HF Group, its subsidiaries and FUSO Trucking LLC ("FUSO") and the Staffing Agencies, which the Company has determined to be VIEs that requires consolidation. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Noncontrolling Interests

GAAP requires that noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries and affiliates be reported in the equity section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the amounts attributable to the net income (loss) of those subsidiaries are reported separately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Use of Estimates

Uses of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves, useful lives of property and equipment, lease assumptions, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of long-term investments, impairment of goodwill, the purchase price allocation and fair value of assets and liabilities acquired with respect to business combinations, realization of deferred tax assets, uncertain income tax positions, the liability for self-insurance and stock-based compensation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or shorter as cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no cash equivalents. Accounts at banks with an aggregate excess of the amount of outstanding checks over the cash balances are included in checks issued not presented for payment in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts Receivable, netAccounts receivable represent amounts due from customers in the ordinary course of business and are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Receivables are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable and determines the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors. When the Company is aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation, a specific allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded, reducing the receivable to the net amount the Company reasonably expects to collect. In addition, allowances are recorded for all other receivables based on historic collection trends, write-offs and the aging of receivables. The Company uses specific criteria to determine uncollectible receivables to be written off, including, bankruptcy filings, the referral of customer accounts to outside parties for collection, and the length that accounts remain past due.

Inventories

The Company’s inventories, consisting mainly of food and other foodservice-related products, are considered finished goods. Inventory costs, including the purchase price of the product and freight charges to deliver it to the Company’s warehouses, are net of certain cash consideration received from vendors, primarily in the form of rebates. The Company adjusted its inventory balance for slow-moving, excess and obsolete inventories to the net recoverable value of such goods based upon inventory category, inventory age, specifically identified items, and overall economic conditions. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Following are the estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment:

Estimated useful lives

Automobiles

3 to 7 years

Buildings and improvements

7 to 39 years

Furniture and fixtures

4 to 10 years

Machinery and equipment

3 to 10 years

Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred, whereas the cost of renewals and betterment that extends the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Retirements, sales and disposals of assets are recorded by removing the cost and accumulated depreciation from the asset and accumulated depreciation accounts with any resulting gain or loss reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in distribution, selling and administrative expenses.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805 (“ASC 805”), Business Combinations. The purchase method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred be allocated to the assets, including separately identifiable assets and liabilities the Company acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The consideration transferred in an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any noncontrolling interests. The excess of (i) the total of cost of acquisition, fair value of the noncontrolling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over, (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in earnings.

The Company estimates the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, its estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to future expected revenues and cash flows, useful lives, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates it has made in the past have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. On the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred, and are included in distribution, selling and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The results of operations of the businesses that the Company acquired are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually, as of December 31, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.

The Company reviews the carrying value of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such carrying values may not be recoverable and annually for goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as required by ASC Topic 350 (“ASC 350”), Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. This guidance provides the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If, based on a review of qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company performs a quantitative analysis. If the quantitative analysis indicates the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company measures any goodwill impairment losses as the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has one reporting unit. See Note 8 - Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets for additional information.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company determines the appropriate useful life of its intangible assets by measuring the expected cash flows of acquired assets. The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:


						Estimated Useful Lives
Non-competition agreement						3 years
Tradenames						10 years
Customer relationships						10 to 20 years

Long term Investments

The Company’s investments in unconsolidated entities consist of an equity investment and an investment without readily determinable fair value.

The Company follows ASC Topic 321 (“ASC 321”), Investments – Equity Securities, using the measurement alternative to measure investments in investees that do not have readily determinable fair value and over which the Company does not have significant influence at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, if any. The Company makes a qualitative assessment of whether the investment is impaired at each reporting date. If a qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired, the Company has to estimate the investment’s fair value in accordance with the principles of ASC Topic 820 (“ASC 820”), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. If the fair value is less than the investment’s carrying value, the entity has to recognize an impairment loss in earnings equal to the difference between the carrying value and fair value.

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 Topic 323 (“ASC 323”), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost, which is included in the equity method investment on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of each equity investee’s net income or loss into earnings after the date of investment. The Company evaluates the equity method investments for impairment under ASC 323. An impairment loss on the equity method investments is recognized in earnings when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets other than goodwill

Impairment of Long-lived AssetsThe Company assesses its long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Factors which may indicate potential impairment include a significant underperformance related to the historical or projected future operating results or a significant negative industry or economic trend. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of their carrying amounts to future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment, and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the assets or asset group exceeds their fair value.

Insurance and Claim Costs

The Company maintains workers compensation and general liability insurance with licensed insurance carriers. Beginning in April 2020, the Company is self-insured for auto claims less than $100,000 per claim. Insurance and claims expense represent premiums the Company paid and the accruals made for claims within the Company’s self-insured retention amounts. A liability is recognized for the estimated cost of all self-insured claims including an estimate of incurred but not reported claims based on historical experience and for claims expected to exceed the Company's policy limits.

The Company establishes reserves for anticipated losses and expenses related to auto liability claims. The reserves consist of specific reserves for all known claims and an estimate for claims incurred but not reported, and losses arising from known claims ultimately settling in excess of insurance coverage using loss development factors based upon industry data and past experience. In determining the liability, the Company specifically reviews all known claims and records a liability based upon the Company’s best estimate of the amount to be paid. In making the estimate, the Company considers the amount and validity of the claim, as well as the Company’s past experience with similar claims. In establishing the reserve for claims incurred but not reported, the Company considers its past claims history, including the length of time it takes for claims to be reported to the Company. These reserves are periodically reviewed and adjusted to reflect the Company’s experience and updated information relating to specific claims. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has recorded a self-insurance liability of $1.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products when control of each product passes to the customer and the customer accepts the goods, which occurs at delivery. Sales taxes invoiced to customers and remitted to government authorities are excluded from net sales.

The Company follows ASC Topic 606 ("ASC 606"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenue that represents the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfer to a customer. The Company’s contracts contain performance obligations which are satisfied when customers have physical possession of each product. The Company’s revenue streams are recognized at a specific point in time.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily includes inventory costs (net of vendor consideration, primarily in the form of rebates), inbound freight, customs clearance fees and other miscellaneous expenses.

Distribution, Selling and Administrative Expenses

Distribution, selling and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits for employees and contract laborers, trucking and fuel expenses for deliveries, utilities, maintenance and repair expenses, insurance expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, selling and marketing expenses, professional fees and other operating expenses.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and Handling CostsShipping and handling costs, which include costs related to the selection of products and their delivery to customers, are included in distribution, selling and administrative expenses.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. As of December 31, 2021, the Company does not have a deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC Topic 740 (“ASC 740”), Income Taxes, on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. See Note 14 - Income Taxes for additional information.

The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 (“ASU 2019-12”), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, on January 1, 2021. ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify various aspects related to managerial accounting for income taxes. The adoption had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Leases

The Company accounts for leases following ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). As of December 31, 2021, the balances for operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and liabilities were $11.7 million and $11.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the balances for operating lease ROU assets and liabilities were $1.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively. See Note 12 - Leases for additional information.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and also considers classification of leases as operating or finance. Operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets, current portion of obligations under operating leases, and obligations under operating leases, non-current on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, net, current portion of obligations under finance leases, and obligations under finance leases, non-current on the consolidated balance sheets.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable rent payments related to both operating and finance leases are expensed as incurred. The Company's variable lease payments primarily consist of real estate, maintenance and usage charges.

The Company has elected to exclude short-term leases from the recognition requirements of ASC 842. A lease is short-term if, at the commencement date, it has a term of less than or equal to one year. Lease expense related to short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has also elected to combine lease and non-lease components when measuring lease liabilities for vehicle and equipment leases.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820 ("ASC 820"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

•Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

•Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about what assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

Any transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy will be recognized at the end of the reporting period in which the transfer occurs. There were no transfers between fair value levels in any of the periods presented herein.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, advances to suppliers, other current assets, accounts payable, checks issued not presented for payment and accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The carrying value of the variable rate debt approximates its fair value because of the variability of interest rates associated with these instruments and the consistency in market conditions since the loans were entered into. For the Company's fixed rate debt, the fair values were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. As of December 31, 2021, the carrying value of the fixed rate debt was $15.0 million and the fair value was $12.2 million. The variable and fixed rate debt are both classified as Level 2.

Of the $15.0 million of fixed rate debt, $4.5 million is related to the Company’s promissory note payable to related party, $2.5 million is attributable to real estate term loans with East West Bank, $2.7 million is attributable to vehicle and equipment term loans with Bank of America, $4.5 million is attributable to loans with First Horizon Bank, and $0.8 million is attributable to vehicle loans with other financial institutions.

Please refer to Note 11 - Long-Term Debt and Note 15 - Related Party Transactions for additional information regarding the Company's debt.

Derivative Financial Instrument

Derivative Financial InstrumentsIn accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 815 ("ASC 815"), Derivatives and Hedging, derivative financial instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company has not designated its interest rate swap ("IRS") contracts as hedges for accounting treatment. Pursuant to GAAP, income or loss from fair value changes for derivatives that are not designated as hedges by management are reflected as income or loss on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Net amounts received or paid under the interest rate swap contracts are recognized as an increase or decrease to interest expense when such amounts are incurred. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty.

Concentrations and Credit Risk

Credit risk

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, and thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of its customers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

Concentration risk

There were no receivables from any one customer representing more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2021 and 2020. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company's consolidated net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Segment Reporting

ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements for details on the Company’s business segments. The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s operating decision makers for making operational decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. In 2021, former co-CEO Zhou Min Ni resigned, and Xiao Mou Zhang assumed the role of sole CEO and sole Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The Company reassessed how the CODM makes operational decisions and assesses performance and concluded it has one operating and reporting segment. Management, including the CODM, reviews operating results and makes resource allocations on a consolidated basis and thus the Company has concluded it has one operating and reportable segment. Previously the Company had two reportable segments. Management has revised its segment disclosure for earlier periods accordingly.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 was further amended in November 2019 in “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit losses”. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including those interim periods within those fiscal years. For emerging growth companies, the effective date has been extended to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company will

adopt this ASU within the annual reporting period ending as of December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard, but based upon its preliminary assessment, does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. These amendments are not applicable to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022 with an effective date of January 1, 2022, because as of December 31, 2022 the Company will no longer be an emerging growth company. ASU 2020-04 is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications and hedging relationships from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2020-04 during 2021. The ASU has not and is currently not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The guidance requires an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in the same manner that they were recognized and measured in the acquiree's financial statements before the acquisition. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements, but does not expect it to have a material impact.

Acquisition of Real Estate Companies

On January 17, 2020, the Company acquired 100% equity membership interest in nine subsidiaries of BRGR, which owned warehouse facilities that were being leased to B&R Global for its operations in California, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Washington, and Montana (the "Realty Acquisition").

Then Co-CEO (and current CEO) of the Company, Xiao Mou Zhang ("Mr. Zhang"), managed and owned an 8.91% interest in BRGR. The total purchase price of the transaction was $101.3 million for which financing was provided by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMorgan"), as Administrative Agent, and certain lender parties hereto, including Comerica Bank under an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"). The terms of which are set forth below, and the lender parties thereto relied upon the appraisals in determining to provide such financing. Based in part on the foregoing, the special transactions committee, composed of the Company’s independent directors, reviewed and approved the transaction and the related financing on behalf of HF Group’s board.

Consideration for the acquisition was funded by (1) $75.6 million in mortgage-backed term loans financed under the Second Amended Credit Agreement (see Note 11 - Long-Term Debt for additional information), (2) issuance by B&R Global of a $7.0 million Unsecured Subordinated Promissory Note to BRGR maturing on January 17, 2030, and (3) payment of $18.7 million from funds drawn from the Company’s revolving credit facility. The reissuance of the mortgage-backed term loans released BRGR from its obligations to the lenders under the First Amended Credit Agreement and predecessor financing arrangements.

The Company noted that the majority of the assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar assets, land and buildings, for the same purpose of warehousing and distribution. As such, the Realty Acquisition was deemed as an asset acquisition under ASC 805-10-55, and the total purchase price was allocated on a relative fair value basis to the net assets acquired.

Acquisition of Great Wall Group

On December 30, 2021, the Company executed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Great Wall Seafood Supply Inc., a Texas Corporation; Great Wall Restaurant Supplier Inc., an Ohio Corporation, and First Mart Inc., an Illinois Corporation (collectively the “Great Wall Group”) to purchase substantially all of the operating assets of the Great Wall Group’s seafood and restaurant products sales, marketing, and distribution businesses (the “Great Wall Acquisition”). The acquisition was completed as part of the Company’s strategy to develop a national footprint through expansion into the Midwest, Southwest and Southern regions of the United States.

The final aggregate price for the purchased assets was $43.7 million with $30.8 million paid in cash at closing and the issuance of 1,792,981 shares of common stock of the Company (based on a 60-day VWAP of $7.36), with a fair value of $12.9 million based on the share price of $8.11 per share at closing and an 11.5% discount due to a lock-up restriction. In addition to the closing cash payment, the Company separately acquired all of the Sellers’ saleable product inventory, for approximately $24.3 million of which approximately $6.8 million was paid during the year ended December 31, 2021 and $17.4 million was recorded in accounts payable on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021. The Company also acquired additional vehicles for approximately $0.2 million. As such, the total acquisition price for all operating assets and inventory was approximately $68.2 million.

The Company accounted for these transactions under ASC 805, Business Combinations, by applying the acquisition method of accounting and established a new basis of accounting on the date of acquisition. The assets acquired by the Company were measured at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets recognized and represent synergies and benefits expected as a result from combining operations with an emerging national presence. For the year ended December 31, 2021, transaction costs for the acquisition totaled $0.9 million and were reflected in distribution, selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Purchase Price Allocation

The following table presents the allocation of the total consideration paid to acquire the assets and liabilities of the Great Wall Group:


(In thousands)	Amount
Inventory	$	24,728
Property plant, and equipment	1,537
Intangible assets	30,145
Total assets acquired	56,410




Goodwill	11,745
Total consideration	$	68,155

The Company recorded acquired intangible assets of $30.1 million, which included tradenames and trademarks of $10.5 million, customer relationships of $17.2 million and non-competition agreements of $2.4 million. The fair value of customer relationships was determined by applying the income approach utilizing the excess earnings methodology using Level 3 inputs including a discount rate. The fair value of tradenames and trademarks was determined by applying the income approach utilizing the relief from royalty methodology and Level 3 inputs including a royalty rate of 1% and a discount rate. The fair value of non-competition agreements was determined by applying the income approach using Level 3 inputs including a discount rate. Discount rates used in determining fair values for customer relationships, tradenames and trademarks, and non-competition agreements ranged from 11.5% to 14.0%. The useful lives of the tradenames and trademarks are ten years, customer relationships are ten years and non-compete agreements are three years, with a weighted average amortization period of approximately nine years. The associated goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. See Note 8 - Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets for additional information on acquired intangibles in the Great Wall Acquisition.

Since the Great Wall Acquisition occurred on December 30, 2021, the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Great Wall Group included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) from the acquisition date to December 31, 2021 were immaterial. Due to the New Year's Eve holiday, there were no revenue generating operations on December 31, 2021.

("Sealand") including equipment, machinery and vehicles.

The Company is in the process of finalizing its purchase accounting, which relates to the valuation of acquired inventory and intangible assets, which may impact the valuation of goodwill.

The Company accounted for this transaction under ASC 805, Business Combinations, by applying the acquisition method of accounting and established a new basis of accounting on the date of acquisition.

GOODWILL AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

NOTE 8 - GOODWILL AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are presented below:


(In thousands)	Amount
Balance at December 31, 2019	$	406,703
Impairment loss	(338,191)
Balance at December 31, 2020	68,512
Acquisition of Great Wall Group	11,745
Balance at December 31, 2021	$	80,257

The Company recorded approximately $406.7 million of goodwill in 2019 resulting from the completion of the business combination with B&R Global and approximately $11.7 million of goodwill resulting from the completion of the business combination with the Great Wall Group in 2021. The Company's policy is to test goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if certain triggering events or circumstances indicate it could be impaired. Potential impairment indicators include (but are not limited to) macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, other relevant entity-specific events, specific events affecting the reporting unit, or sustained decrease in share price.

In addition, the fair value of the goodwill is sensitive to the changes in the assumptions used in the projected cash flows, which include forecasted revenues and perpetual growth rates, among others, all of which require significant judgment by management. The Company has used recent historical performance, current forecasted financial information, and broad-based industry and economic statistics as a basis to estimate the key assumptions utilized in the discounted cash flow model. These key assumptions are inherently uncertain and require a high degree of estimation and judgment and are subject to change based on future conditions, industry and global economic and geo-political factors, and the timing and success of the Company's implementation of current strategic initiatives.

Towards the end of first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Company experienced significant decline in business volume due to mandatory stay-at-home orders issued by governmental authorities in response to the intensification of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company determined that the B&R Global reporting unit was very sensitive to these declines and that it was more-likely-than-not that an impairment may exist. The Company, therefore, performed an analysis of the fair value of the B&R Global reporting unit as of March 31, 2020 using a discounted cash flow method for goodwill impairment testing purposes. Based upon the analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of its B&R Global reporting unit exceeded its fair value by approximately $338.2 million. As a result, the Company recorded the amount as an impairment loss during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

The Company estimated the fair value of the B&R Global reporting unit using the income approach, discounting projected future cash flows based upon management’s expectations of the current and future operating environment. The calculation of the impairment charge included substantial fact-based determinations and estimates including weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"), future revenue, profitability, perpetual growth rates and fair values of assets and liabilities. The fair value conclusions as of March 31, 2020 for the reporting unit were highly sensitive to changes in the WACC, which considered as observable data for publicly traded companies, an estimated market participant’s expectations about capital structure and risk premiums. The Company corroborated the reasonableness of the estimated reporting unit fair values by reconciling to its enterprise value and market capitalization. The Company also observed that the WACC applied on March 31, 2020 increased significantly from the original WACC value as of the acquisition date, mainly driven by the increased risk and volatility observed in the market. Volatility had primarily been due to concerns about demand for food distribution services, as restaurant activity in much of the country had been reduced to takeout and delivery offerings. Continued uncertainty about the removal or perpetuation of these restrictions and levels of consumer spending cause ongoing volatility.

Due to structural changes at the Company during 2021, there is only one reporting unit at December 31, 2021. The Company performed a qualitative goodwill impairment assessment and concluded no impairment was required to be recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021. No impairment was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019.

Acquired Intangible Assets

In connection with the Great Wall Acquisition, HF Group acquired $30.1 million of intangible assets, primarily representing a non-competition agreement, tradenames and customer relationships, which have an estimated amortization period of approximately 3 years, 10 years, and 10 years, respectively. In connection with the acquisition of B&R Global, HF Group acquired $188.5 million of intangible assets, primarily representing tradenames and customer relationships which have an estimated amortization period of 10 and 20 years, respectively.

The Company evaluated possible triggering events that would indicate long-lived asset impairment assessment and concluded no impairment was required during the year ended December 31, 2021. No impairment was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

HF Group’s amortization expense for acquired intangible assets was $10.9 million in 2021, $10.9 million in 2020 and $1.8 million in 2019. The estimated future amortization expense for intangible assets is presented below:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Variable Interest Entities

GAAP provides guidance on the identification of VIEs and financial reporting for entities over which control is achieved through means other than voting interests. The Company evaluates each of its interests in an entity to determine whether or not the investee is a VIE and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of such VIE. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company considers if the Company (1) has power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE, and (2) receives the economic benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. If deemed the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidates the VIE. See Note 3 - Variable Interest Entities for additional information.

Noncontrolling Interests

On May 28, 2021, the Company purchased the remaining 33.33% noncontrolling equity interests in Kirnland Food Distribution, Inc. ("Kirnland") for $5.0 million, making Kirnland a wholly-owned subsidiary. In accordance with ASC 810, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary shall be accounted for as equity transactions. No gain or loss was recognized. As a result of this transaction, noncontrolling interests and additional paid-in capital were reduced by $1.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, noncontrolling interest equity consisted of the following:


($ in thousands)	Ownership of noncontrolling interests as of December 31, 2021		December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020

Uses of Estimates

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable represent amounts due from customers in the ordinary course of business and are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Receivables are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable and determines the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors. When the Company is aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation, a specific allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded, reducing the receivable to the net amount the Company reasonably expects to collect. In addition, allowances are recorded for all other receivables based on historic collection trends, write-offs and the aging of receivables. The Company uses specific criteria to determine uncollectible receivables to be written off, including, bankruptcy filings, the referral of customer accounts to outside parties for collection, and the length that accounts remain past due. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, allowances for doubtful accounts were $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Long term Investments

The Company’s investments in unconsolidated entities consist of an equity investment and an investment without readily determinable fair value.

The Company did not record any impairment loss on its long term investments during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company assesses its long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Factors which may indicate potential impairment include a significant underperformance related to the historical or projected future operating results or a significant negative industry or economic trend. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of their carrying amounts to future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If property and equipment, and intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the assets or asset group exceeds their fair value. The Company did not record any impairment loss on its long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Insurance and Claim Costs

Revenue Recognition

For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods was immaterial. Revenue expected to be recognized in any future periods related to remaining performance obligations is immaterial.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 815 ("ASC 815"), Derivatives and Hedging, derivative financial instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company has not designated its interest rate swap ("IRS") contracts as hedges for accounting treatment. Pursuant to GAAP, income or loss from fair value changes for derivatives that are not designated as hedges by management are reflected as income or loss on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Net amounts received or paid under the interest rate swap contracts are recognized as an increase or decrease to interest expense when such amounts are incurred. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

NOTE 13 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260 (“ASC 260”), Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income 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, warrants and restricted stock) 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. There were 21,288 potential common shares related to total shareholder return performance-based restricted stock units that were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2021 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive potential common shares for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 consists of the following:


	Year Ended December 31,
(In thousands)	2021		2020		2019
Current:			(As Restated)		(As Restated)
Federal	$	9,044	$	1,245	$	2,152
State	2,329		(54)		540
Current income taxes	11,373		1,191		2,692
Deferred income benefit:
Federal	(2,823)		(2,917)		(157)
State	(4,047)		(2,999)		(94)
Deferred income benefit:	(6,870)		(5,916)		(251)
Total provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	4,503	$	(4,725)	$	2,441

The Company's effective income tax rates for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 were 16.6%, 1.4% and 30.8%, respectively. The determination of the Company’s overall effective income tax rate requires the use of estimates. The effective income tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions based on enacted tax law, permanent differences between book and tax items, tax credits and the Company’s change in relative income in each jurisdiction. Due to the changes in the Company's business activities, the Company has updated certain state filing methodologies and related state apportionment which resulted in a change in the state tax rate used in measuring deferred income taxes as of December 31, 2021. This change had a favorable impact on the Company's effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2021. Changes in tax laws and rates may affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities and the Company’s effective income tax rate in the future. The Company has no operations outside the U.S., as such, no foreign income tax was recorded.

Temporary differences and carryforwards of the Company that created significant deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:


(In thousands)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Deferred tax assets:			(As Restated)
Allowance for doubtful accounts	$	202	$	443
Inventories	644		545
Federal net operating loss	—		102
State net operating loss	161		257
Equity compensation	132		—
Fair value change in interest rate swap contracts	67		245
Leases	6,065		1,767
Accrued expenses	662		67
Total deferred tax assets	7,933		3,426
Deferred tax liabilities:
Property and equipment	(5,400)		(4,144)
Intangible assets	(38,890)		(45,323)
Right of use assets	(2,949)		(284)
Equity investments	(149)		—
Total deferred tax liabilities	(47,388)		(49,751)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(39,455)	$	(46,325)

Reconciliations of the statutory income tax rate to the effective income tax rate are as follows:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2021		2020		2019
			(As Restated)		(As Restated)
Federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%	21.0	%
State statutory tax rate	5.8	%	0.7	%	4.0	%
Impact of goodwill impairment loss – permanent difference	—	%	(20.5)	%	1.0	%
U.S permanent difference	1.9	%	—	%	—	%
Rate difference due to change in state filing method	(13.7)	%	—	%	—	%
FIN 48 liability	0.6	%	—	%	3.6	%
Other	1.0	%	0.2	%	1.2	%
Effective tax rate	16.6	%	1.4	%	30.8	%

The Company has no federal net operating loss ("NOL") carryovers and $1.8 million state NOL carryovers as of December 31, 2021. Approximately $0.2 million of state NOL carryovers will expire in 2033, and $0.1 million of state NOL carryovers will expire in 2040, and $1.5 million state NOL carryovers will expire in 2041. The rest of the state NOL carryovers can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has approximately $1.5 million of California NOL carryovers generated in prior years. Due to California’s suspension of NOL carryover deduction for certain taxpayers, the Company cannot deduct NOL carryover in this period.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits


	Year Ended December 31,
	2021		2020		2019
			(As Restated)		(As Restated)
Total unrecognized tax benefits on January 1,	$	752	$	646	$	402
Decrease related to positions taken on items from prior years	—		—		—
Increase related to positions taken on items from prior years	—		—		—

It is reasonably possible that $0.4 million of the total uncertain tax benefits will reverse within the next 12 months. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized is $0.8 million, $0.8 million and $0.6 million as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Interest and penalty related to unrecognized tax benefits are reported in income tax expense, in the amount of $0.2 million as of December 31, 2021.

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2021

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 16 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan, known as the HF Foods Group Inc. 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Incentive Plan”). The 2018 Incentive Plan allows for up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance of awards to employees, non-employee directors, and consultants. The 2018 Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, stock appreciation rights, other stock awards, and performance awards that may be settled in stock, or other property. The Company began issuing awards under the 2018 Incentive Plan in February 2021.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 352,920 time-based vesting restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding, 143,278 performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) outstanding, and 2,503,802 shares remaining available for future awards under the 2018 Incentive Plan.

RSUs granted to employees vest over time based on continued service (vesting over a period between one to three years in equal installments). PSUs granted to employees vest based on (i) the attainment of certain financial metrics, as defined by the Company's compensation committee (“Financial PSUs”) and (ii) total shareholder return of the Company’s common stock (“TSR PSUs”). Both types of PSUs vest over three equal installments beginning from April 1, 2022 to April 1, 2024 based on the performance metrics established for each year and also require continued service for vesting.

A summary of RSU and PSU activity for the year ended December 31, 2021 is as follows:


	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested RSUs at December 31, 2020	—	$	—
Granted	355,242	5.22
Forfeited	2,322	5.17
Vested	—	—
Unvested RSUs at December 31, 2021	352,920	$	5.22


	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested PSUs at December 31, 2020	—	$	—
Granted	143,278	4.94
Forfeited	—	—
Vested	—	—
Unvested PSUs at December 31, 2021	143,278	$	4.94

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share-based payment awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. The fair value of the RSUs and Financial PSUs are measured using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ Global Capital Market on the date preceding grant date. The fair value of the TSR PSUs are determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the TSR PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2021 and valued under the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows:


															2021 PSU Grants
Risk-free interest rate															0.32% - 0.34%
Expected dividend yield															—% - —%
Expected term (years)															2.56 - 2.73
Expected volatility (1)															64.26% - 65.74%

(1)Expected volatility is based on a 50/50 blending of (i) the average historical volatility of a select group of industry peers with a look-back period equal to the expected term, and (ii) the historical volatility of the Company with a look-back period of 1.17 years, the time from the valuation date to the date six months after the completion of the merger with B&R Global, using daily stock prices. The expected volatility of peer companies was 62.42% – 63.45%. The expected volatility of the Company's common stock was 66.10% – 68.03%.

The fair value of RSUs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award. For the PSUs, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for each vesting tranche over the longer of the derived, explicit, or implicit service period for the vesting tranche. As of interim and annual reporting periods, the Financial PSUs stock-based compensation expense is adjusted based on expected achievement of performance targets, while TSR PSUs stock-based compensation expense is not adjusted. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.

Stock-based compensation expense is included in distribution, selling and administrative expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The components of stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 were as follows:


(In thousands)	Year Ended December 31, 2021
Stock-based compensation (RSUs) expense	$	405
Stock-based compensation (PSUs) expense	230
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	635

Tax benefit of stock-based compensation expense	$	132

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 there was no stock-based compensation expense.

As of December 31, 2021, there was $1.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to all non-vested outstanding RSUs and PSUs outstanding under 2018 Incentive Plan, with a weighted average remaining service period of 2.2 years. Of the total unrecognized compensation cost, $1.5 million is related to RSUs with time-based vesting provisions and $0.3 million is related to PSUs with performance and market-based vesting provisions.

ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS DESCRIPTION AND RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Organization and General

HF Foods Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively “HF Group”, or the “Company”) is an Asian foodservice distributor that markets and distributes fresh produce, frozen and dry food, and non-food products to primarily Asian restaurants and other foodservice customers throughout the United States. The Company's business consists of one operating segment, which is also its one reportable segment: HF Group, which operates solely in the United States. The Company's customer base consists primarily of Chinese and Asian restaurants, and it provides sales and service support to customers who mainly converse in Mandarin or Chinese dialects.

Corporate History

HF Group Holding Corporation ("HF Holding") was incorporated as a holding company to acquire and consolidate the various pre-merger operating entities. On January 1, 2018, HF Holding entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with the controlling shareholders in exchange for all of HF Holding’s outstanding shares.

On August 22, 2018, Atlantic Acquisition Corp. ("Atlantic") consummated a reverse acquisition transaction resulting in HF Holding becoming the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlantic (the “Atlantic Acquisition”). The shareholders of HF Holding became the majority shareholders of Atlantic, and the Company changed its name to HF Foods Group Inc. (collectively, these transactions are referred to as the “Atlantic Transactions”).

The Atlantic Acquisition was treated as a reverse acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). For accounting purposes, HF Holding was considered to be acquiring Atlantic in this transaction, as such, the aggregate consideration paid in connection with the business combination was allocated to Atlantic’s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair market values. The assets and liabilities and results of operations of Atlantic were consolidated into the balance sheet and results of operations of HF Holding as of the completion of the Atlantic Transactions.

On November 4, 2019, HF Group consummated a merger transaction resulting in B&R Global Holdings, Inc. ("B&R Global") becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Business Combination"). At closing, the Company issued 30,700,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company to the shareholders of B&R Global in exchange for the 100% equity interest of B&R Global.

On January 17, 2020, the Company acquired 100% equity membership interest in nine subsidiaries under B&R Group Realty Holding, LLC ("BRGR"), which owned ten warehouses that were being leased by the Company for its operations in California, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Washington, and Montana for purchase consideration of $101.3 million.

On December 30, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Great Wall Seafood Supply, Inc., Great Wall Restaurant Supplier, Inc., and First Mart Inc. (collectively the “Great Wall Group”), and substantially all of the operating assets of the Great Wall Group’s seafood and restaurant products sales, marketing, and distribution businesses (the “Great Wall Acquisition”). The acquisition was completed as part of the Company’s strategy to develop a national footprint through expansion into the Midwest, Southwest and Southern regions of the United States. The total acquisition price for all operating assets and inventory was approximately $68.2 million.

See Note 7 - Acquisitions for additional information on recent acquisitions.

Independent Investigation Update

In March 2020, an analyst report suggested certain improprieties in the Company’s operations. These allegations became the subject of two putative stockholder class action lawsuits which have subsequently been dismissed. In response to the allegations in the analyst report, the Company's Board of Directors appointed a Special Investigation Committee of Independent Directors (the “Special Investigation Committee”) to conduct an independent investigation with the assistance of independent legal counsel. As a result of the investigation, the SIC determined certain factual findings. Management evaluated the factual findings, as presented by the SIC, and analyzed them to determine which had impact on the historical financial statements, including disclosures, of the Company.

In addition to the independent investigation, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) initiated a formal, non-public investigation of the Company, and the SEC informally requested, and later issued a subpoena for, documents and other information. The subpoena relates to but is not necessarily limited to the matters identified in the Class Actions. The Special Investigation Committee and the Company are cooperating with the SEC. The SEC Investigation is still ongoing.

As with any SEC investigation, there is also the possibility of potential fines and penalties. At this time, however, there has not been any demand made by the SEC nor is it possible to estimate the amount of any such fines and penalties, should they occur. See Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

During 2022, the Company identified certain errors impacting the financial statements, including disclosures, for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and each interim quarterly period for 2021, 2020, and 2019 related to the identification of and accounting for operating and finance leases, the incorrect identification and disclosure of certain related party relationships including the identification of VIEs, the timing of revenue recognition for rental income received from a related party, the accounting for the self-insurance liability for automobile insurance beginning in 2020, classification errors in the financial statements, and an error in the calculation of earnings per share for 2020 and 2019. In addition, certain errors were identified based on the factual findings of the Special Investigation Committee such as unrecorded executive compensation to a certain executive and immediate family members, and related party disclosures. The Company analyzed the errors using Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, “Materiality” and SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” and determined the errors were material. Accordingly, the Company has restated herein the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related interim financial statements periods within the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. Any adjustments prior to 2019 are not quantitatively material, are consistent with the adjustments discussed within this Note and have been presented as an adjustment as of December 31, 2018 in the accompanying Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. The nature of these error corrections is as follows:

a.Certain operating and finance leases were not properly identified and accounted for upon the adoption of ASC Topic 842 (“ASC 842”), Leases on January 1, 2019 and during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and adjustments have been made to correct these errors. The errors primarily resulted in an understatement of property and equipment, right-of-use assets, and the current and long-term liabilities associated with operating and finance leases. In addition, the errors resulted in an understatement in cash flows from operations and an overstatement in cash flows from financing activities within the respective consolidated statements of cash flows.

b.Four entities previously disclosed as related parties were determined not to be related parties. The four related party entities that were reclassified in the financial statements from related party to third party for 2020 and 2019 were EMC Rowland, LLC; The Big Catch Alhambra, LLC; Winfar Foods, Inc; and Wokcano Carlsbad Partner LLP.

c.The Company identified an error related to the timing of revenue recognition for rental income received from UGO (a related party) during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019, and 2020. Rental income received from UGO, which was previously recognized in error, in full in 2020, was recognized in the appropriate accounting period as part of the error corrections. Please refer to Note 15 - Related Party Transactions for additional information on the lease arrangement with UGO.

d.As a result of the findings from the independent investigation, the Company determined that certain payments made by the Company in prior years to related parties should now be accounted for in the Company's consolidated financial statements as executive compensation. The Company made payments for inventory to Revolution Industry, which were diverted to Revolution Automotive to make car lease payments for the benefit of Mr. Ni and his family. Amounts paid by Revolution Automotive for car lease payments for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020 were $1.7 million, $1.0 million, and $0.5 million, respectively. The Company reclassified these amounts from cost of

revenue – third parties to distribution, selling, and administrative expense. The Company also made payments to UGO for marketing services, which services were determined as part of the independent investigation to have not been received commensurate to the amounts paid. Those payments amounted to $0.5 million, $0.4 million, $0.5 million and $0.1 million in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. The Company did not reclassify these payments in the historical consolidated financial statements because both marketing services and executive compensation are recorded within the distribution, selling, and administrative expense financial statement line. Please refer to Note 15 - Related Party Transactions for further details on Revolution Automotive, Revolution Industry and UGO. The Company has recorded an uncertain tax position liability associated with the reclassification of certain amounts as executive compensation as discussed further in j. below.

e.The Company had not previously recorded a liability (including incurred but not reported "IBNR") related to the self-insured portion of its automobile insurance policy, which started in April 2020. The error resulted in an understatement of accrued expenses and other liabilities at December 31, 2020 and impacted quarterly periods, and has been corrected.

f.The Company determined certain staffing agencies were VIEs and should have been consolidated into the previously-filed financial statements. As further disclosed in Note 3 - Variable Interest Entities, the result of the errors to the historical financial statements was primarily related to disclosure errors and did not result in significant changes to the consolidated balance sheets, or consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and shareholders’ equity. There were certain misclassifications between accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets specific to the staffing agency VIEs. See further discussion in Note 3 - Variable Interest Entities.

g.The 2020 goodwill impairment loss, which was previously misclassified as other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), was revised to be included in income (loss) from operations.

h.The gain/loss on sale of fixed assets, which was previously misclassified in other income (expense), net was revised to be included in distribution, selling and administrative expenses.

i.The earnings per share for 2019 was previously incorrectly computed at $0.22 per share in prior Form 10-K filings instead of at $0.20 per share based on the originally reported net income attributable to HF Foods Group, Inc. As part of the error corrections being made, the resultant earnings per share for 2019 is $0.18 per share. The loss per share for 2020 was previously incorrectly computed at $6.58 per share in prior Form 10-K filings and was corrected to $6.59 per share.

j.As a result of the executive compensation described in d. above, the Company recorded an uncertain tax position liability to account for potential implications to previously filed tax returns. The correction resulted in an increase of $0.8 million, $0.6 million, and $0.4 million in accrued expenses and other liabilities as of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively, compared to previously reported amounts. The quarterly impacts of the uncertain tax position have also been corrected.

k.In the Company’s December 31, 2020 financial statements, the Company did not disclose NC Good Taste Noodle, Inc. as a related party since Mr. Zhou Min Ni reported that he sold his ownership effective January 1, 2020. However, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Jian Ming Ni, continues to own a portion of NC Good Taste Noodle, Inc. and as a result, the Company has concluded that NC Good Taste Noodle, Inc. still meets the definition of a related party. The Company has corrected the classification of balances associated with NC Good Taste Noodle, Inc. in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of cash flows and notes to consolidated financial statements in the affected annual and quarterly periods. See Note 15 – Related Party Transactions for additional information.

l.Certain capital contributions from a noncontrolling shareholder were incorrectly recorded as other payables were reclassified to noncontrolling interest.

The corresponding footnotes have been restated for the adjustments noted above.

Consolidated VIEs

FUSO

FUSO was established solely to provide exclusive trucking services to the Company. The entity lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from the Company, and the Company has the power to direct the VIEs’ activities. In addition, the Company receives the economic benefits from the entity and has concluded that the Company is the primary beneficiary. The carrying amounts of the assets, liabilities, the results of operations and cash flows of the VIE included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and statements of cash flows are immaterial.

Staffing Agencies

The Staffing Agencies were set up by an employee of the Company, or their relatives, and provided temporary labor services exclusively to the Company at the direction of the Company. There were no other substantive business activities of the Staffing Agencies. There were immaterial assets held, or liabilities owed by the Staffing Agencies and immaterial equity. The Company has determined it is the primary beneficiary for the Staffing Agencies as it controlled how and when the labor force would be utilized. The Company consolidates the Staffing Agencies, recognizing compensation expense within distribution, selling, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), and the related accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company did not have any guarantees, commitments or other forms of financing to the Staffing Agencies. As of December 31, 2021, the Company no longer has involvement with any of the Staffing Agencies.

Unconsolidated VIEs

See Note 12 - Leases for additional information on AnHeart.

Revolution Industry, Revolution Automotive and UGO

Revolution Industry was established to produce egg roll mix for the Company and to create and provide funding to Revolution Automotive. Revolution Automotive was set up to acquire luxury vehicles for the benefit of the former Co-CEO (Mr. Ni) and his son. UGO was originally designed to be an online marketplace for various Asian goods. Revolution Industry, Revolution Automotive and UGO were thinly capitalized and were not able to finance their activities without additional subordinated support. The former Co-CEO's (Mr. Ni) son, as sole equity holder of Revolution Industry and Revolution Automotive, had unilateral control over the ongoing activities of Revolution Industry and Revolution Automotive and significantly benefited from their operations. Therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary for Revolution Industry and Revolution Automotive. The former Co-CEO (Mr. Ni) and certain family members, as equity holders of UGO, had unilateral control over the ongoing activities of UGO and significantly benefited from its operations. Therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary for UGO.

Revolution Industry and UGO are also related parties and were generally the Company’s suppliers or customers and the Company did not have other involvement with these entities. Therefore, the Company’s exposure to loss due to its involvement with these entities was limited to amounts due from these entities, which is included in Accounts receivable – related parties. The Company did not have any guarantees, commitments, or other forms of financing with these entities. Related party transactions with Revolution Industry and UGO are disclosed in Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.

BRGR

The Company determined BRGR to be a VIE. BRGR was established to hold real estate for rent primarily for the Company and BRGR was financed primarily through this rental income and proceeds from the real estate loan for which the Company was guarantor. The Company was not the primary beneficiary of BRGR as the Company did not have the power to direct or control the activities which most significantly influenced the performance of BRGR. On January 17, 2020, the Company acquired 100% equity membership interests of certain real estate subsidiaries of BRGR, as discussed in Note 7 - Acquisitions. The Company also entered into the Second Amended Credit Agreement, as discussed in Note 10 - Line of Credit, which removed BRGR as a guarantor of its revolving credit facility and as a borrower under its real estate term loans. Related party transactions with BRGR related parties is disclosed in Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.

For the period from January 1, 2020 through January 17, 2020 and the period from November 4, 2019 through December 31, 2019, the Company recorded rent expense of $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, related to its lease agreements with the realty subsidiaries of BRGR, which is included in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of December 31, 2019, the Company was a guarantor of BRGR and its subsidiaries’ mortgage-secured real estate term loan, which had an unpaid principal balance of $53.3 million. As of January 17, 2020, the Company had no remaining involvement with BRGR.

AnHeart

AnHeart was previously a subsidiary of the Company designed to sell traditional Chinese medicine, sold to a third-party in February 2019. As discussed in Note 12 - Leases, after the sale, the Company continued to provide a guarantee for all rent and related costs associated with two leases of AnHeart in Manhattan, New York. The Company has determined that AnHeart is a VIE as a result of the guarantee. However, the Company concluded it was not the primary beneficiary of AnHeart because it does not have the power to direct the activities of AnHeart that most significantly impact AnHeart's economic performance. Please refer to Note 12 - Leases for additional information regarding the Company's maximum exposure to loss to AnHeart.

The Company did not have any sales to or rental income from any of the other VIEs during the three years ended December 31, 2021.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	12 Months Ended
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	Dec. 31, 2021
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	NOTE 9 - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company utilizes interest rate swaps ("IRS") for the sole purpose of mitigating interest rate fluctuation risk associated with floating rate debt instruments (as defined in Note 10 - Line of Credit and Note 11 - Long-Term Debt). The Company does not use any other derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. On August 20, 2019, HF Group entered into two IRS contracts with East West Bank (the "EWB IRS") for initial notional amounts of $1.1 million and $2.6 million, respectively. The EWB IRS contracts were entered into in conjunction with two mortgage term loans of corresponding amounts that were priced at USD 1-month LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum for the entire duration of the term loans. The EWB IRS contracts fixed the two term loans at 4.23% per annum until maturity in September 2029. On December 19, 2019, HF Group entered into an IRS contract with Bank of America (the "BOA IRS") for an initial notional amount of $2.7 million in conjunction with a newly contracted mortgage term loan of corresponding amount. The term loan was contracted at USD 1-month LIBOR plus 2.15% per annum, but was fixed at 4.25% per annum resulting from the corresponding BOA IRS contract. On December 19, 2021, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to Loan Agreement, which pegged the mortgage term loan to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") + 2.5%. The BOA IRS was modified accordingly to fix the SOFR based loan to approximately 4.50%. The term loan and corresponding BOA IRS contract mature in December 2029. On June 24, 2020, HF Group entered into a forward starting IRS contract with JPMorgan Chase Bank (the "JPM IRS") for a fixed $80.0 million notional amount, effective from June 30, 2021 and expiring on June 30, 2025, as a means to partially hedge its existing floating rate loans exposure. On March 3, 2021, the Company unwound the JPM IRS. The contract was unwound with a view that 1-month LIBOR will continue to remain low in the foreseeable future despite the spike at the long end of the yield curve. The Company recorded a gain of approximately $0.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company evaluated the above mentioned IRS contracts currently in place and did not designate those as cash flow hedges. Hence, the fair value change on the aforementioned IRS contracts are accounted for and recognized as a change in fair value of IRS contracts in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has determined that the fair value of the interest rate swap obligations was $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The IRS are classified as Level 2 liabilities.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	12 Months Ended
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	Dec. 31, 2021
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	NOTE 18 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES From time to time, the Company is a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company records loss contingencies in its financial statements only for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Where a range of loss can be reasonably estimated with no best estimate in the range, the Company records the minimum estimated liability. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved is material. The Company continuously assesses the potential liability related to the Company’s pending litigation and revises its estimates when additional information becomes available. Adverse outcomes in some or all of these matters may result in significant monetary damages or injunctive relief against us that could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. There also exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on our financial statements for the period in which the effect of an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and reasonably estimable. As previously disclosed, in March 2020, an analyst report suggested certain improprieties in the Company’s operations. These allegations became the subject of two putative stockholder class actions filed on or after March 29, 2020 in the United States District Court for the Central District of California generally alleging the Company and certain of its current and former directors and officers violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by making allegedly false and misleading statements (the “Class Actions”). After the second putative stockholder class action was filed, the Class Actions were consolidated. On January 19, 2021, the Company and the director and officer defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the consolidated Class Actions. On August 25, 2021, the Court granted the Motion to Dismiss with leave to amend the complaint. The Plaintiff elected not to amend his complaint, and the Court entered Judgment in favor of the Company and the director and officer defendants on September 20, 2021. The Court’s decision was not appealed, and the Class Actions are now closed. The Company was likewise named a nominal defendant and certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in a shareholder derivative lawsuit filed on June 15, 2020, in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The complaint made similar allegations as the Class Actions and alleged violations of Sections 10(b), 14(a), and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. A second virtually identical shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed on August 21, 2020 in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. On November 19, 2020, the District Court for the District of Delaware transferred the second-filed derivative lawsuit to the District Court for the Central District of California. The shareholder derivative lawsuits were stayed pending the deadline to file a notice of appeal in the Class Actions. On November 5, 2021, the first of the two shareholder derivative lawsuits was dismissed voluntarily without prejudice by the plaintiff. On November 23, 2021, the second shareholder derivative lawsuit was dismissed by the Court on the basis of the parties’ stipulation of voluntary dismissal without prejudice. In response to the allegations in the March 2020 analyst report, the Company's Board of Directors appointed the Special Investigation Committee to conduct an internal independent investigation with the assistance of counsel. On May 20, 2022, the Board of Directors of HF Group received a letter from a purported stockholder, James Bishop (the “Bishop Demand”). The Bishop Demand alleges that certain current and former officers and directors of HF Group engaged in misconduct and breached their fiduciary duties, and demands that HF Group investigate the allegations and, if warranted, assert claims against those current or former officers and directors. Many of the allegations contained in the Bishop Demand were the subject of a shareholder derivative action that Bishop filed in August 2020 (the “Bishop Derivative Action”). On November 24, 2021, after the United States District Court for the Central District of California dismissed with prejudice a related securities class action, captioned Mendoza v. HF Foods Group Inc. et al., No. 2:20-cv-02929 (C.D. Cal.), the Bishop Derivative Action was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice. On June 30, 2022, the Board of Directors of HF Group resolved to form a special committee (the “Special Litigation Committee”) comprised of independent directors and advised by counsel to analyze and evaluate the allegations in the Bishop Demand in order to determine whether the Company should assert any claims against the current or former officers and directors. On August 19, 2022, James Bishop filed a verified stockholder derivative complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Action”), which asserts similar allegations to those set forth in the Bishop Demand. On September 21, 2022, Bishop and the Company filed a stipulation to stay the Delaware Action for 90 days, which the court granted on September 22, 2022. On December 20, 2022, Bishop and the Company filed a stipulation to extend the stay of the Delaware Action for an additional 60 days, which the court granted on December 21, 2022. The Special Litigation Committee is in the process of analyzing and evaluating the claims alleged in the Bishop Demand and Delaware Action, and has not determined whether any claims should be asserted or the probability of recovery for such claims. In addition, the SEC initiated a formal, non-public investigation of the Company, and the SEC informally requested, and later issued a subpoena for, documents and other information. The subpoena relates to but is not necessarily limited to the matters identified in the Class Actions. The Special Investigation Committee and the Company are cooperating with the SEC. While the SEC investigation is ongoing, the Special Investigation Committee has made certain factual findings based on evidence adduced during the investigation and made recommendations to management regarding improvements to Company operations and structure, including but not limited to its dealings with related parties. As with any SEC investigation, there is also the possibility of potential fines and penalties. At this time, however, there has not been any demand made by the SEC nor is it possible to estimate the amount of any such fines and penalties, should they occur.

Leases [Abstract]

LEASES

NOTE 12 - LEASES

The Company leases office space, warehouses and vacant land under non-cancelable operating leases, with terms typically ranging from one to thirty years, as well as operating and finance leases for vehicles and delivery trucks, forklifts and computer equipment with various expiration dates through 2050. The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes an embedded lease at contract inception.

Operating and finance lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date and initially measured based on the present value of lease payments over the defined lease term. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the Company also recognizes finance lease assets and finance lease liabilities at inception, with lease expense recognized as interest expense and amortization of the lease payment. Variable lease costs were insignificant in the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

AnHeart

On July 2, 2018, AnHeart, a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into two separate leases for two properties located in Manhattan, New York, at 273 Fifth Avenue and 275 Fifth Avenue, for 30 years and 15 years, respectively. AnHeart is obligated to pay all costs associated with the properties, including taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and repairs. The Company provided a corporate guaranty for all rent and related costs of the leases, including costs associated with the planned construction of a two-story structure at 273 Fifth Avenue and rehabilitation of the building at 275 Fifth Avenue. The Company originally entered into the leases with the purpose of expanding its product lines to Chinese herbal supplements, and to utilize the sites to develop into a central location for such products. The Company subsequently decided to cease this business expansion in early 2019.

On February 23, 2019, the Company executed an agreement to divest all of its ownership interest in AnHeart, however, the divestment did not release the Company’s guaranty of AnHeart’s obligations or liabilities under the original lease agreements. Under the terms of the sale of AnHeart stock, and in consideration of the Company’s ongoing guaranty of AnHeart’s performance of the lease obligations, AnHeart granted to the Company a security interest in all AnHeart assets, together with a covenant that the Company will be assigned the leases to be exercised if AnHeart defaults on the original lease agreements. In addition, AnHeart tendered an unconditional guaranty of all AnHeart liabilities arising from the leases, in favor of the Company, executed by Minsheng Pharmaceutical Group Company, Ltd. (“Minsheng”), a Chinese manufacturer and distributor of herbal medicines.

On February 10, 2021, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption of Lease Agreement (“Assignment”), dated effective as of January 21, 2021, with AnHeart and Premier 273 Fifth, LLC, pursuant to which it assumed the lease of the premises at 273 Fifth Avenue (the “273 Lease Agreement”). At the same time, the closing documents were delivered to effectuate the amendment of the 273 Lease Agreement pursuant to an Amendment to Lease (the “Lease Amendment”). The Assignment and the Lease Amendment were negotiated in light of the Company’s guarantee obligations as guarantor under the Lease Agreement. The Company agreed to observe all the covenants and conditions of the Lease Agreement, as amended, including the payment of all rents due. Under the terms of the Lease Agreement and the Assignment, the Company has undertaken to construct, at its own expense, a building on the premises at a minimum cost of $2.5 million. The Lease Amendment permits subletting of the premises, and the Company intends to sublease the newly constructed premises to defray the rental expense undertaken pursuant to its guaranty obligations.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, on January 17, 2022, the Company received notice that AnHeart had defaulted on its obligations as tenant under the lease for 275 Fifth Avenue. On February 7, 2022, the Company undertook its guaranty obligations by assuming responsibility for payment of monthly rent and other tenant obligations, including past due rent as well as property tax obligations beginning with the January 2022 rent due. On February 25, 2022, the Company instituted a legal action to pursue legal remedies against AnHeart and Minsheng.

In accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees, the Company has determined that its maximum exposure resulting from the 275 Fifth Avenue lease guarantee includes approximately $8.0 million of future minimum lease payments plus potential additional payments to satisfy maintenance, property tax and insurance requirements under the leases with a remaining term of approximately 12 years. The Company elected a policy to apply the discounted cash flow method to loss contingencies with more than 18 months of payments.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a one-time lease guarantee expense and liability of $5.9 million using a discount rate of 4.55%.

LINE OF CREDIT	12 Months Ended
LINE OF CREDIT	Dec. 31, 2021
Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
LINE OF CREDIT	NOTE 10 - LINE OF CREDIT On November 4, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA. (the “JPM Credit Agreement”). The JPM Credit Agreement provided for a $100.0 million asset-secured revolving credit facility maturing on November 4, 2022, with an option to renew at the bank’s discretion. The revolving credit facility carried a floating interest rate that was pegged to the 1-month London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 1.375% per annum and was collateralized by all assets of the Company and was also guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company. The JPM Credit Agreement was later superseded by a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Second Amended Credit Agreement”) as described below. On January 17, 2020, the Company and certain of the wholly-owned subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company as borrowers, and certain material subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into the Second Amended Credit Agreement. On December 30, 2021, the Company entered into the Consent, Waiver, Joinder and Amendment No. 3 to the Second Amended Credit Agreement with JPMorgan, as Administrative Agent, and certain lender parties thereto, including Comerica Bank. The Second Amended Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for (i) a $100.0 million asset-secured revolving credit facility maturing on November 4, 2022 (the “Revolving Facility”), (ii) mortgage-secured term loan of $75.6 million, (described in Note 11 - Long-Term Debt) and (iii) amendment in the referenced interest rate from 1-month LIBOR to 1-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a credit adjustment of 0.1% (difference between LIBOR and SOFR) plus 1.375% per annum. The existing revolving credit facility balance under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, was rolled over to the Revolving Facility on December 30, 2021. On the same day, the Company utilized an additional $33.3 million drawdown from the Revolving Facility to fund the Great Wall Acquisition. The Second Amended Credit Agreement, as amended, contains certain financial covenants, including, but not limited to, a fixed charge coverage ratio and effective tangible net worth. The outstanding principal balance on the line of credit as of December 31, 2021 was $55.3 million. As of December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its covenants. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company's lenders consented to the delivery of the Company's 2021 audited financial statements on or before January 31, 2023. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, on March 31, 2022, the Company amended the JPM Credit Agreement extending the Revolver Facility for 5 years, with a maturity date of November 4, 2027. The amendment provides for a $100.0 million asset-secured revolving credit facility with a 1-month SOFR plus a credit adjustment of 0.1% plus 1.375% per annum.
