XI’AN, China, March 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Entrepreneur Universe Bright Group (“EUBG” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: EUBG), a digital marketing consulting company, yesterday announced its audited financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Mr. Guolin Tao, CEO of Entrepreneur Universe Bright Group commented, “As of December 31, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be dynamic, and near-term challenges across the economy remain. Although vaccines are now being distributed and administered across many parts of the world, new variants of the virus have emerged and may continue to emerge that have shown to be more contagious. We continue to adhere to applicable governmental and commercial restrictions and to work to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our employees, customers, communities, liquidity and financial position.”
“Substantially all of the Company’s revenues and operations are concentrated in China. Consequently, our results of operations and financial performances have been affected since 2020 and into 2022. Due to widespread economic disruptions during the outbreak, demand for the Company’s consulting services by small and medium-sized enterprises were also adversely affected. Specifically, as a result of government mandated closures of non-essential business in China, many of the Company’s customers’ business were suspended while others permanently closed their businesses, which has had an adverse impact on our business and financial condition and has hampered our ability to generate revenue and access usual sources of liquidity on reasonable terms.” Mr. Tao added.
