To add more to what @AliAnarkali said, a HOC returns you a component so when you write like

const EnhancedApp = withProps(App);

EnhancedApp is basically

  const EnhancedApp = props => {
    return <Component {...props}/>
  }

which a functional component and when you render EnhancedApp like

<EnhancedApp onChange={this.onChange} value={this.state.value} />

It is similar to how a functional component receives onChange and value as props and hence in an HOC, the inner function gets the props like this.
