On June 9, 2020, the Changzhi Public Security Bureau (the "Bureau") froze the assets of Jinchen Agriculture and its subsidiary Dongsheng Guarantee. Our legal counsel was unable to determine the cause of the freeze as the authorities did not provide us with this information, and our legal counsel advised us that we no longer have control of the assets or operations of both Jinchen Argiculture and Dongsheng Guarantee. Consequently, the Company's Board of Directors voted to dispose of Jinchen Agriculture and Dongsheng Guarantee.
On December 31, 2020, Wins Finance and Shanghai Guyuan signed an asset disposal agreement, pursuant to which on January 6, 2021, Wins Finance, sold its entire interest in Shanxi Jinchen Agriculture Ltd. ("Jinchen Agriculture") (including its subsidiary Shanxi Dongsheng Finance Guarantee Co., Ltd. ("Dongsheng Guarantee")) to Shanghai Guyuan (the "Purchaser") in exchange for the Purchaser assuming the obligations of Jinchen Agriculture.
In view of the slowdown in the Chinese economy and the impact of COVID-19, lessees' ability to repay their rental expenses was significantly impaired. We continue to be cautious about securing new leasing customers in the current economic environment. We have instituted further risk controls to mitigate the risks inherent in our financial leasing business and strengthen the recovery of our lease receivables. In addition, we are intent upon expanding our financing channels, developing new strategies to increase our cash flow and seeking out strategic investors to invest in our Company to help fund our initiatives. we expect our [medical business and trade business] to become our new business growth points in the future. We believe that we will be able to weather the currently difficult economic environment.
Financial Results for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2021
We currently offer the following principal products and services to our customers, which primarily constitute SMEs: (1) financial leasing; and (2) financial advisory and agency services.
Direct financing lease interest income
Direct financing lease interest income generated from payments under direct financing leases with customers was $0.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 37.5%, as compared to $0.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a slowdown in China's economy due to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Non-interest expenses
Non-interest expense was $0.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021, as compared to non-interest expense of $1.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in legal and audit fees during the six months ended December 31, 2021.
Income before taxes
Income before taxes was $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $4.4 million as compared to an income before taxes of $(2.7) million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. The increase was attributable to the prior accounting error adjustments.
Net income
Net income was $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $ 16.3 million as compared to net income of $(14.6) million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly due to the prior accounting error adjustments.
Current Outlook
The first six months of fiscal 2022 has been a period of transition for the Company given its disposal of its financial guarantee business as well as the lingering economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our board of directors adopted a 2022 Equity Incentive Plan in May 2022 which provides for the issuance of up to 9,498,725 shares under the plan. The purpose of the Plan is to encourage and enable the officers, employees, Non-Employee Directors and Consultants of Wins Finance Holdings, Inc. and its Affiliates upon whose judgment, initiative, and efforts the Company largely depends for the successful conduct of its business to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. It is anticipated that providing such persons with a direct stake in the Company's welfare will assure a closer identification of their interests with those of the Company and its stockholders, thereby stimulating their efforts on the Company's behalf and strengthening their desire to remain with the Company. No grants have been made under the plan as of the date of this release.
We believe that our operating experience and enhanced risk management protocols will ultimately help to propel growth once business conditions normalize and our competitive position in our sector continues to strengthen. However, we note that the period-to-period financial results of this sector is affected by the complexity, uncertainties and changes in China's economic conditions as well the regulations governing the industry and can cause fluctuations in our periodic operating and financial results.
