Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those assumptions are based. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by words such as "believes," "project," "expect," "anticipate," "estimates," "intends," "plan," "may," "will continue," and similar expressions. Forward looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. References in this Annual Report on Form 10-K to "we," "us," "our," "San Lotus" and the "Company" are to San Lotus Holding Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

ITEM 1.          BUSINESS

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

San Lotus Holding Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 21, 2011 to market travel products and services to the growing "baby boomer" market, with an initial focus on the Asian market.

 

We are a development stage company that plans to market global travel products to the retiring baby boomer generation in the Asian markets. We are in the initial stages of opening a travel agency in Taiwan, Republic of China. On May 21, 2012, we obtained a license from the Investment Commission, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Taiwan (R.O.C.) to invest into Taiwan through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc., a Taiwan (R.O.C.) company. We anticipate that we will be able to obtain this approval by the end of 2015. The challenges we anticipate in obtaining the necessary approvals to operate a travel agency in Taiwan (as well as in other countries) primarily involves meeting the statutory requirements related to capital requirements, statutory reserves and employing fit, proper and qualified management. These challenges have already been addressed by starting our business in Taiwan (as referenced in Risk Factors under government approval). We expect to begin generating revenue in Taiwan in April 2014, after we obtain the relevant licenses and approval from Taiwan's government.

 

Our travel services entity in Taiwan will provide both outbound travel services for customers based in Taiwan and inbound travel services for customers based abroad and coming to Taiwan. Both the outbound and inbound services will be conducted in our Taiwan office, except the inbound services will rely in part on advertising conducted or directed outside of Taiwan.

 

We will not only book airplane tickets, hotels and tours, but design specialized destination-related travel services for our customers based on their specific needs and desires while they are in Taiwan. In this way, our market will consist of both those potential travelers based in Taiwan, but also anyone from any other country who might be planning a trip to Taiwan or need assistance with designing a travel itinerary once they arrive in Taiwan. We will market our products and services to the travel population in Taiwan and abroad through our website, www.sanlotusholding.com, as well as through services such as Twitter and other media outlets. In addition, we have already taken steps to begin marketing our services to the Chinese market in California through a California television station, TBWTV Inc. ("TBWTV"). We plan to use this entity for purposes of gaining access to a means of advertising our services to the California market of potential Taiwan travelers. Our vice president and secretary, Yu Chien-Yang and Chen Kuan-Yu, own TBWTV and, as a result, have knowledge of when preferred advertising slots become available and may be able to assist us in gaining preferable advertising rates, although we have no contractual guarantees on either of these issues. In addition, we have purchased three vehicles to provide transportation to our customers while they are in California, a common destination for Taiwan business travelers and tourists.

 

 


 
 

 

 

We intend to use the cars, with hired drivers, to provide car service for our customers from the airport to their hotels or other desired destinations upon their arrival in California. Providing car service is an experimental project at this point as we only have three vehicles available for use. We will charge our customers an amount that will cover our expenses in providing the car and driver. In the event the service is popular and appears to benefit our services, we may add to the service in the future, at which time we would reevaluate the amount we charge for the service.

 

In addition to developing our business in Taiwan, in the first quarter of 2013, we entered into non-binding letters of intent to acquire existing travel services agencies in Taipei City, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Vancouver, British Columbia and California. We plan to proceed in negotiating terms for these acquisitions over the course of the next several months while we simultaneously gather operational data from our module operation in Taiwan. We expect to complete the acquisitions of such travel agencies by the end of the second quarter of 2014. At the same time, we also have entered into non-binding letters of intent to acquire land in Taiwan, which land we intend to use to develop destination-related travel services. We expect to complete the acquisitions of such land and/or land holding companies by the end of the first quarter of 2014.

 

Despite of entering the non-binding letters of intent to acquire the travel agencies and land, we remain in the preliminary discussion with the travel agencies and the sellers of the land about the specific considerations to acquire them. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing such acquisitions. Acquiring the travel agencies located both within and outside of Taiwan and land in Taiwan is an ongoing effort that will continue during the life of the Company. To facilitate our acquisition efforts, we will actively seeking additional funding on favorable terms to continue our acquisition. If additional funding is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our acquisitions and continue our operations. We plan to be funded by private placement of our equity securities and/or mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully complete our acquisitions of travel agencies and/or land. If we fail to complete our acquisitions of travel agencies and/or land, we may be forced to cease our operation entirely, and you may lose all your investment.

 

Each of these non-binding letters of intent above was disclosed to the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K shortly after our entry into each such non-binding letter of intent.

 

Regarding the development of our travel services entity in Taiwan, our plan is to build up a successful module operation in Taiwan and to gain meaningful operational data for one year before using it as a model to replicate throughout Asia. It is critically important for us to obtain credible data in terms of the following (per module main office, plus branch officers):

1.

C. Fees estimated $1,000 upon application for license −  in or after 2014

 

D. Rent deposit estimated $2,000 upon rental of office −  in or after 2014

 

E. Equipment, etc. estimated $5,000 −  in or after 2014

 

F. Purchase of condominium and automobiles in California - $628,141 - June 2012

 

G. Purchase of interest in A Peace World Holding Inc. - $46,500 - January 2012

A. Number of employees and salary per office - two employees at estimated $1,500 each per month for a total of $3,000 - starting in April 2014

 

B. Office rent-Green Forest-$2,000 per month-starting in September 2013

 

C. Office rent-Da Ren-$1,333 per month -starting in September 2013

Making projections using real figures based on the module operations should lower our level of risk as we expand into other countries. While it is premature to set any definitive dates in applying for obtaining statutory approval to operate travel agencies beyond Taiwan (R.O.C.), we anticipate that after one full year of operation, we will have sufficient data to construct an expansion plan for establishing ventures beyond Taiwan.

Products and Services Offered:

•                Transportation: airlines / buses / car rentals / railways / cruises;

•                Accommodation: hotels / resorts / cruises; and

•               Packaged holidays / local tours.

 

Our business strategy is to generate revenue mainly through commissions or mark-ups for selling travel products. For example, for airplane tickets, for which we do not take inventory, we will receive commission revenue from the airlines as compensation for selling airplane tickets to our customers. In other words, our revenue will not come directly from the payments which the customers make to the airlines, but instead our commission revenue will be paid by the product provider (e.g. airlines) directly to our Company. The size of commission will vary from product to product, depending on how product providers (e.g. airlines) set their distribution strategy. Below is an estimate of the commission percentage we expect to be able to obtain for each type of product:

 

Type of Product

Estimated Commission %

Transportation

3 ~ 10%

Accommodation

3 ~ 10%

Packaged Tours

3 ~ 10%

 

Another type of revenue would come from mark-ups. Our mark-up revenue will be earned when we choose to take inventory on products such as hotel stays, cruise trips or tours. This type of revenue is different from commission-based revenue in that we will secure the product outright before customers purchase the product. After we purchase the product, we would then sell the product to the customer at a higher price, thereby earning the difference or mark-up as profit. The size of the mark-up will vary depending on our inventory level, market conditions and customer preference.

 

Below is an estimate of the mark-up percentage and the initial cost of obtaining wholesale inventory for each type of product:

 

Type of Product

Estimated Mark-up %

Initial Cost of Obtaining Wholesale Inventory

Transportation

5 ~ 20%

$10,000

Accommodation

10 ~ 30%

$30,000

Packaged Tours

10 ~ 20%

$10,000

 

We expect to incur the cost of obtaining wholesale inventory starting in the first quarter of 2014 or as soon as our license to operate a travel agency has been granted. Consequently, we will recover the cost and make a profit when inventory is turned over or sold. The profitability of our mark-up business will depend on how frequent inventory is turned.

 

We anticipate providing other ancillary travel services such as submitting visa applications on behalf of clients. It is our understanding that it is customary to charge a handling fee of US$5~10 for the submission of a visa application. These types of services, however, should only constitute a small part of our overall revenue.

 

We plan to market our company to high-income individuals and affinity groups, such as private schools, alumni groups and wealth management organizations at banks and investment firms. Our plan to reach these target customers is through seeking lists from the affinity groups and marketing online. In terms of seeking lists from affinity groups, our strategy involves no upfront cost to our company. We will instead share the profits with the organizations that provided such lists when customers purchase travel products through our company. Our general rule of thumb is to share 50% of the profit with the affinity group. This estimate may be adjusted upward or downward depending on the size and quality of the customer list. Separately, we plan to market our company online through our company website. Currently under construction, our company website, www.sanlotusholding.com, will be a vehicle to promote our offerings to a wide audience. We plan on interacting with our retail customers primarily through our website. Our customers will be able to place their purchases via the telephone, through credit card or bank transfer payment.

Business Development

 

The Company seeks to develop mutually beneficial business relationships with travel product providers, such as airlines, hotels and tour operators, and will begin offering travel products to our customers. The Company will work on reaching a variety of affinity groups and reaching agreements to service their customers. The Company recently launched a website, www.sanlotusholding.com, to begin marketing our services online.

 

Our costs as a reporting company in our first year are approximately $165,000 in legal fees and $45,000 in auditing fees, including the preparation of our 10-K filing and annual audit.

 

Our costs as a reporting company in our second year are approximately $16,193 in legal fees and $50,300 in auditing fees, including the preparation of our 10-K filing and annual audit.

 

Our costs as a reporting company in our third year are approximately $12,672 in legal fees and $20,000 in auditing fees, including the preparation of our 10-K filing and annual audit.

 

Marketing and Sales

 

Our initial marketing efforts will be designed to drive prospective clients to our website, www.sanlotusholding.com. We plan to use social media vehicles such as Twitter and Facebook to generate awareness of our website. We expect to engage prospective clients through promoting our website and responding to requests for information. Eventually, we expect to use broader-based email marketing to generate a much larger number of sales leads that will be followed up with a personal exchange, via email or telephone, but there is no guarantee this will be successful. We will also market to potential customers based in California through TBWTV, a Chinese language television station based in California.

 

We have taken the following steps in implementing our business plan:

 

Vendor Discussion and Supplier Agreements

 

We have contacted vendors to provide travel related products to our customers. Below is a summary of the number of vendors who have responded favorably to our request. We have not signed any formal supplier agreements with product vendors.

Website Development

 

We have completed the initial version of our website, www.sanlotusholding.com, and will use this site to market our services to the general public.

 

Television Advertising in California

 

We will begin advertising our services to potential Taiwan travelers in California through TBWTV Inc., a local California station geared toward Chinese speaking audiences, sometime during 2014. With California's large Asian population and strong business connections with Taiwan, we believe there is potential to develop a strong customer base in California by directing potential customers to our website. As part of this effort, we have purchased a condominium unit in California so that our management and employees will be able to easily be able to travel to California to work on our television advertising campaign, as well as enable them to work with our various U.S. service providers. In addition, we purchased three vehicles that will be used to transport our management, as well as our customers, when in California.

Affinity Groups

 

We have used the contacts of our directors and officers in initially contacting various affinity groups. Thus far, we have had conversations with no less than five groups that have expressed interest in sharing their group list with our company. However, at this time we have not executed any of agreements with these companies. Below is a summary of the statistics we wish to reach regarding various affinity groups:

We are in the process of applying for our license to operate a travel agency in Taiwan. We expect to receive approval for our business license by the end of 2014. Once proper licenses and approvals have been granted, we will need to take the following steps in generating revenue:

 

-              Formally launch online operations (in or after 2014)

-              Sign formal supplier agreements with product vendors that have expressed interest previously (in or after 2014)

-              Begin advertising with TBWTV (in or after 2014)

-              Sign on additional product vendors (in or after 2014)

-              Sign profit sharing agreements with affinity groups that have expressed interest previously (completed as of the year 2012)

-              Sign on additional affinity groups (in or after 2014)

-              Hire office staff (in or after 2014)

 

These steps will ensure that we have sufficient product and service offerings to attract customers, both to launch our operations and on an ongoing basis going forward.

 

In addition to the aforementioned steps, we are in the process of investing in and developing scenic/destination real estate sites through the acquisition of land and land holding companies. We acquired certain land in Taiwan (R.O.C.), which is specifically described in Item 2 of this annual report on form 10k. We also have entered into four additional non-binding letters of intent to acquire additional land in scenic and/or agricultural areas in Taiwan. We aim to complete four acquisitions by the end of 2014. After we have completed these acquisitions, we will evaluate all of our real estate holdings as a group and determine how we will utilize those properties to support our overall goal of developing a travel, tourism and destination real estate business. At that same time, we will evaluate and plan for the costs of developing the properties.

 

We expect the destination real estate portion of our business to make up approximately half of our overall business in the future, with the other half consisting of travel agencies. By destination real estate, we mean to develop locations that will attract and support visitors for stays of one day or longer, providing outdoor activities and places of interest for visitors from both domestic locales and abroad. In addition to our destination real estate business, we are continuing to develop our travel agency in Taiwan and have entered into nine non-binding letters of intent to acquire travel agencies located outside of Taiwan in both Asia and North America. We aim to complete the acquisition of these nine travel agencies by the end of the second quarter 2014. We intend to fund all of these acquisitions through the sale of our common stock. While this will cause dilution to the existing shareholders, we do not believe this dilution will negatively affect the shareholders as the acquisitions will add significant value to the Company and will allow the Company to proceed in developing its business.

We may also from time to time invest in travel-related service providers that we believe can help us better service our customers and help them meet their travel needs. Through investing in such entities, we may be able to recoup some of our costs through maintaining small ownership interests in the entities our clients use. Furthermore, by investing in these entities, we may be able to work with them to better improve their travel offerings or related services or bring the entities up to the standard of service our customers expect. We recently made one such investment in A Peace World Holding Inc. ("APW"), a company in the early stages of developing destination real estate products and services. We expect that APW, based on its expressed business plans, will develop destination real estate that our customers will be interested in traveling to, thus enhancing the products and services we can provide to our customers. Any costs involved in offering such products and services to our customers, if there are any such costs, will be incorporated into the fees we charge our customers for our service. At this time we have no further plans for making any additional such investments and therefore have no plans of making further capital expenditures in relation to such investments.

 

Competition

 

We will be operating in two sectors −  in the area of destination real estate development and travel agencies. These two sectors will complement each other as, over the long term, the travel agencies will be able to refer clients and visitors to our destination real estate sites. We will face competition from many individuals and companies that also market travel locations and products. As concerns travel destinations, we desire to utilize scenic properties that will allow for outdoor activities. Thus we must create locations that provide both activities of interest and provide convenience and amenities, while allowing visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of the area around them.

 

Observation tells us that the current travel industry is generally driven by the lowest cost provider. However, different segments of the market, such as the affluent segment, consider factors beyond cost when they plan vacations and travel. Ahead of cost, an affluent consumer may value factors such as convenience, comprehensive service, and luxury and/or prestige, to name a few. We believe that a successful marketing effort to reach the affluent market segment (retiring baby boomers) with the right quality of products should increase our revenue opportunity. In Taiwan, market conditions for the travel industry are similar to those of the U.S. There is a mix of large travel agencies, online service providers and small-scale local operators. However, since Taiwan is geographically much smaller than the U.S., competition is fierce.

 

In Taiwan, there are four types of travel agencies:

 

1.      Mega Agencies

 

A.        Lion Travel

 

B.        Cola Tour

 

C.        EZ Travel

 

2.      Intermediate-Small −  locally or regionally owned agencies

 

A.        Star Travel

 

B.        SET Tour

 

3.      Independent Agencies: Usually catering to a special or niche market

 

A.        Royal Jet Way

 

B.        Perfect Travel

 

C.        Life Tour


 
 

 

 

4.      Airline & other types of travel consolidators

 

A.        China Airlines

 

B.        EVA Airlines

 

C.        American Express

 

We feel at this time we would fall into the Independent Agency category and hope to create our own niche as a more customer-oriented agency or travel service provider with a reputation of going the "extra mile" wherever possible in connecting the right type of customers with the right type of products.

 

Concerning destination real estate sites, there are many competitors who will be vying for the business of our potential clientele. The key will be to develop attractive properties that provide the amenities and activities that visitors would enjoy. In our development plans, we are defining destination real estate as locations that will draw tourist from both domestically and abroad to visit our sites for a period of one or two days or more. So in the long term we will be developing sites that include hotels, restaurants, as well as activity and entertainment centers, among other things. Some of our competitors in the destination real estate sector in Taiwan include the following companies:

 

Elements Innovation Co. Ltd.

E United Group

Taiwan Land Development Inc.

 

ITEM 1A.          RISK FACTORS

 

Our business is subject to many factors that could materially or adversely affect our future performance and cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Those risk factors are outlined below.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO DEVELOP OUR BUSINESS.

 

The development of our services will require the commitment of substantial resources of approximately $578,688 over the next 12 months to implement the next stages of our business plan. Currently, we have no established bank-financing arrangements. Therefore, it is likely we would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private offerings of our equity securities. We have no current plans for additional financing. As of March 23, 2015, we had $10,435 cash in the bank, $2,918 cash held by our wholly-owned Taiwan (R.O.C.) subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc. and $2,843 cash held by our wholly-owned Taiwan (R.O.C.) subsidiary Da Ren International Development Inc., for purposes of building our travel services business in Taiwan. We expect the remainder of the needed funds to come in the form of loans from our president and founder, Chen Li Hsing.

 

We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us or, if available, will be on terms favorable to us. The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. The occurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. If adequate additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our business development plans or continue our business operations. We believe the only source of funds that would be realistic at this stage of our operation is through a loan from our president and the sale of equity capital. At this time we have no guarantee or written loan agreement with our president, just a verbal agreement. Now that our stock is quoted on the OTCBB, we may have the opportunity to participate in the equity markets and raise the necessary capital through the sale of our stock. There is no assurance, however, that we will be able to raise capital through the sale of our stock.

 

WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND FACE MANY OF THE RISKS AND DIFFICULTIES FREQUENTLY ENCOUNTERED BY DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANIES.

 


 
 

 

We are a development stage company and, to date, our development efforts have been focused primarily on the development and marketing of our business model and website. We have a limited operating history for investors to evaluate the potential of our business development. We have not yet built our customer base or our brand name and it is possible we never will. In addition, we face many of the risks and difficulties inherent in gaining market share as a new company.

 

Our operations to date have been devoted primarily to start-up and development activities, which include:

 

1. formation of the Company;

 

2. development of our business plan;

 

3. evaluating various travel destinations;

 

4. researching marketing channels and strategies;

 

5. developing our web site: www.sanlotusholding.com; and

 

6. acquiring land for potential destination real estate development.

 

Our future will depend on our ability to bring our service to the marketplace, which requires careful planning, without incurring unnecessary cost and expense.

 

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS AND DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES.

 

With the addition of land and land development projects in Taiwan, we will be subject to additional governmental regulations that may limit our operations or create delays as we may be required to obtain additional permits and governmental consent to our development projects and/or land usage. Any additional requirements for permits or regulations that need to be complied with may cause us to incur additional expense.

 

WE WILL BE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND THE COST OF COMPLIANCE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. 

 

With the ownership of land, we will be subject to various environmental laws. Compliance with these laws may cause us to incur additional expense or delay in our land development projects.

 

DUE TO OUR REAL ESTATE DEVELPOPMENT PLANS, WE WILL FACE FIXED COSTS DUE TO PROPERTY TAX AND PROPERTY INSURANCE REQRUIREMENTS.

 

Our business strategy concerning our real estate development business involves high fixed costs, including property taxes and insurance costs, which we may be unable to adjust in a timely manner in response to any reduction in our revenues. The land we have acquired is uninsured at present and has a yearly property tax of NT$39,646 (US$1,300). We will need to insure the property in the future and we will be able to better estimate insurance costs as we determine how we are going to utilize the property, which we intend to do following the completion of additional land and land holding company acquisitions, which we expect to complete sometime in 2015.

 

OUR REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS MAY BE DELAYED OR UNSUCCESSFUL IN THE EVENT WE ARE UNABLE TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS.

 

The real estate development industry is capital intensive, and real estate development requires significant up-front expenditures to develop land and begin construction. Accordingly, we will require substantial expenditures to finance our land development activities. Although we believe that internally generated funds will be sufficient to fund our capital and other expenditures, the amounts available from such sources will not be adequate to meet funding requirements for our planned development and construction activities. We do not yet know how much the real estate development portion of our business will cost as we have just begun the process of acquiring land that we will use for development. Once we have acquired the lands for which we have entered into non-binding letters of intent for acquisition, we will evaluate our development plans and further determine how much we expect the land development to cost. We will likely need to seek additional capital in the form of sales of our equity securities to meet these funding needs. Our failure to obtain sufficient capital to fund our planned expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations and our results of operations in future periods.

AVAILABILITY OF THE INTERNET MAKES IT MUCH EASIER FOR INDIVIDUALS TO PLAN THE DETAILS OF THEIR OWN TRIPS.

 

The availability of the Internet makes it much easier for affluent individuals and others to plan the details of their own trips, thereby eliminating the fees we hope to collect. Such self-managed trips may have caused many travel agencies to go out of business in recent years and may continue to cause travel agencies to go out of business.

 

IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE TRAVELERS WILLING TO PAY FOR TRAVEL SERVICES WE MAY HAVE TO CEASE OPERATIONS.

 

The travel industry in general is ruled by those who can provide service at the lowest price. The Company aims to reach travelers who are willing and able to pay for travel design services and it may be difficult to find these travelers in numbers large enough to make our business model work well enough to attain profitability. If we are unable to locate travelers willing to pay for our travel services we may not be able to continue our business operations.

 

UNCERTAINTY AND ADVERSE CHANGES IN THE GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF THE MARKETS IN WHICH WE WILL PARTICIPATE MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

 

Current and future conditions in the economy have an inherent degree of uncertainty. It is even more difficult to estimate growth or contraction in various parts, sectors and regions of the economy, including the markets in which we will participate. As a result, it is difficult to estimate the level of growth or contraction for the economy as a whole. Adverse changes may occur as a result of soft global economic conditions, rising oil prices, wavering consumer confidence, unemployment, declines in stock markets, contraction of credit availability, or other factors affecting economic conditions in general. These changes may negatively affect our sales and/or increase our exposure to losses. These possible changes may also affect the ability for a start-up company like us to raise sufficient capital in the U.S. equity market.

 

OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS CONTROL 42.65 PERCENT OF THE COMPANY GIVING THEM SIGNIFICANT VOTING POWER AND MAY TAKE ACTIONS THAT MAY NOT BE IN THE BEST INTEREST OF ALL OTHER STOCKHOLDERS.

 

Because our officers and directors together hold 36.61 percent of our common stock, they may be able to exert significant control over our management and affairs requiring stockholder approval, including approval of significant corporate transactions. They may also be able to determine their compensation.

 

WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS TO BE A PUBLIC COMPANY AND TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH U.S. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ABSORB SUCH COSTS.

 

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. While we do not presently have D&O insurance for our officers and directors, we intend to acquire D&O insurance in the future. We are estimating our annual costs for being a publicly reporting company to be approximately $160,000 range for the next few years. In addition, we may not be able to absorb these costs of being a public company, which will negatively affect our business operations.

THE LACK OF PUBLIC COMPANY EXPERIENCE OF OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO COMPLY WITH THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS OF U.S. SECURITIES LAWS.

 

Our management team lacks public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, such as those imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our senior management has never had responsibility for managing a publicly traded company. Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management may not be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to such increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements, including establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which is necessary to maintain our public company status. If we fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to continue as a U.S. public company would be in jeopardy in which event you could lose your entire investment in our company.

 

OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS HAVE THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE THEIR SALARY AND PERQUISITES WHICH MAY CAUSE US TO HAVE A LACK OF FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR NET INCOME.

 

Because our officers and directors have the discretion to determine their salary and perquisites we may have no net income. If our officers determine that their salaries are at a level above our potential earnings the company may not have funds available.

 

AS A SMALLER TRAVEL COMPANY WITH REPORTING OBLIGATIONS, AND AS THE TRAEL INDUSTRY HAS LOW BARRIERS TO ENTRY, WE MAY BE AT A COMPETITIVE DISADVANTAGE TO OTHER TRAVEL COMPANIES.

 

Because the travel market is competitive, is driven in part by costs and consists mostly of private companies that do not have public reporting obligations, our reporting obligations may put us at a competitive disadvantage. The travel industry has low barriers to entry. In addition, we face additional expenses that a private travel company does not have such as PCAOB auditor fees, EDGAR filing fees and legal fees related to our SEC reporting obligations. Other non-public travel companies do not incur these costs. We are at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors because of this.

 

OUR OFFICERS CURRENTLY WORK AS PART-TIME TRAVEL AGENTS WHICH MAY POTENTIALLY LEAD TO A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. 

 

Our officers currently serve as part-time travel agents and this may lead to a conflict of interest and potentially lead to a loss of business opportunities. Our officers' current part-time employment may divert potential clients and business opportunities for the Company to their other businesses. This may have an adverse consequence on our potential revenues. Our officers may be unable to spend adequate time developing the Company's business because of their current part-time status with the Company. Currently they each work 15-20 hours per week for the Company.

 

WE WILL NEED GOVERNMENT APPROVAL TO OPERATE TRAVEL AGENCIES IN THE COUNTRIES WHERE WE PLAN TO HAVE OPERATIONS.

 

We will need government approval to operate travel agencies in the countries where we have operations. For example, in Taiwan (Republic of China), we need to obtain the approval of the Tourism Bureau under the Ministry of Transportation and Communications. Accordingly, we will have to comply with the relevant laws regulating our activities. At this time, we have obtained consent from the Ministry of Commerce of Taiwan (R.O.C.) to directly invest into Taiwan through our wholly owned subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc., but we have not yet received permission to operate a travel agency. There are a number of requirements we will need to meet under the laws of Taiwan in obtaining and maintaining a license to operate a travel agency. The more pertinent requirements include (1) meeting capital base requirements by type of travel agency, (2) maintenance of statutory deposit/reserve by type of travel agency and number of branches, and (3) qualification of management personnel, among others.


 
 

 

 

Our company has enough capital to meet the capital and statutory reserve requirements for operating a travel agency in Taiwan after taking into account the costs of our business plan and cost of operations. As an example, to be a type B travel agency in Taiwan, the minimum capital requirement is equivalent to $100,000, with a required statutory reserve of $20,000 for the main office and $5,000 per branch office. A type B travel agency is one that is permitted to carry out the following travel-related business:

 

-         to sell transportation tickets on behalf of vendors;

 

-         to purchase transportation tickets on behalf of customers;

 

-         to arrange travel, accommodation, transportation and other travel related services for customers;

 

-         to promote travel tours to domestic customers on behalf of other travel agencies;

 

-         to design domestic travel plans;

 

-         to provide travel related consulting services; and

 

-         to operate any other travel related business permitted by the regulatory body.

 

We intend to apply for and operate as a type B travel agency. We have no plans to operate as any other type of travel agency in Taiwan. These activities combined allow us to market the global travel products referred to throughout the prospectus.

 

A summary of the legal requirements for the qualifications of management personnel are listed below. Qualified persons are those who fulfill any one of the following requirements:

 

1.      a college degree holder with a minimum of two years of experience as the principal officer of another travel agency;

 

2.      a college degree holder with a minimum of three years of management experience in the travel industry;

 

3.      a college degree holder with a minimum of four years of experience in the travel industry or a minimum of six years of experience as a tour guide; or

 

4.      a minimum of ten years of experience working in the travel industry.

 

Both our President and Chief Executive Officer have college degrees and extensive experience in the travel industry (five years and fifteen years in management positions, respectively), thus qualifying them for fulfilling the legal requirements in holding management positions in a travel agency in Taiwan.

 

Risk Related To Our Capital Stock

 

WE ARE AN "EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY" AND ANY DECISION ON OUR PART TO COMPLY ONLY WITH CERTAIN REDUCED DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO "EMERGING GROWTH COMPANIES" COULD MAKE OUR COMMON STOCK LESS ATTRACTIVE TO INVESTORS.

 


 
 

 

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Startup Businesses Act (the "JOBS Act"), and, for as long as we continue to be an "emerging growth company," we have elected to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to "emerging growth companies," including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an "emerging growth company" for up to five years or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an "emerging growth company" can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, because we are an "emerging growth company, " we can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

 

BECAUSE WE HAVE ELECTED TO DEFER COMPLIANCE WITH NEW OR REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS, OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENT DISCLOSURE MAY NOT BE COMPARABLE TO SIMILAR COMPANIES.

 

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. Because of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

OUR STATUS AS AN "EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY" UNDER THE JOBS ACT OF 2012 MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT TO RAISE CAPITAL AS AND WHEN WE NEED IT.

 

Because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an "emerging growth company," and because of the extended transition period emerging growth companies are allowed for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we may be less attractive to investors and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our financial accounting is not as transparent as other companies in our industry. If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

 

BECAUSE WE WERE A "SHELL COMPANY" CERTAIN INVESTORS IN OUR COMPANY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO UTILIZE RULE 144 TO SELL THEIR SHARES UNTIL AT LEAST ONE YEAR AFTER WE CEASE TO BE A SHELL COMPANY.

 

The Shares issued to investors in the Company cannot be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act until one year after the Company ceases to be a shell company. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned restricted securities shares for at least six months, including persons who may be deemed "affiliates" of the Company, as the term is defined under the

Securities Act, would be entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares or the average weekly trading volume of shares during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to certain manner-of-sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about the Company. A person who has not been an affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned his or her shares for at least one year, would be entitled under Rule 144 to sell such shares without regard to any volume limitations under Rule 144.

San Lotus Holding Inc. was a shell company prior to filing this periodic report on Form 8-K and therefore a majority of its shareholders may not currently utilize Rule 144 to sell their shares. Rule 144 is not available for sales of shares of companies that are or have been "shell companies" except under certain conditions. The Company completed an acquisition and has removed its status as a shell company by filing this report on Form 8-K. Shareholders are able to utilize Rule 144 one year after the filing of this Form 8-K, assuming it files the documents it is required to file as a reporting company. Investors in the Company whose shares were registered in a registration statement will be able to sell their shares pursuant to said registration statement.

 

OUR STOCK HAS ONLY BEEN TRADED ON THE OVER-THE-COUNTER BULLETIN BOARD FOR A SHORT TIME, THERE HAS ONLY BEEN LIMITED TRADING ACTIVITY AND THERE IS LIMITED HISTORY WITH WHICH TO ESTIMATE FUTURE TRADING ACTIVITY IN OUR STOCK.

 

Although the Company's Common Stock is approved for trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, there has only been little trading activity in the stock. Accordingly, there is no history on which to estimate the future trading price range of the Common Stock. If the Common Stock trades below $5.00 per share, trading in the Common Stock will be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended

 

(the "Exchange Act"), which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, any non-FINRA equity security that has a market share of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions). Such rules require the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally defined as an investor with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with a spouse). For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. The broker-dealer must disclose the commissions payable to the broker-dealer, current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the market.

 

Such information must be provided to the customer orally or in writing before or with the written confirmation of trade sent to the customer. Monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in the Common Stock which could severely limit the market liquidity of the Common Stock and the ability of holders of the Common Stock to sell it.

 

WE MAY NEVER PAY ANY DIVIDENDS TO STOCKHOLDERS.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance expansion and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.

 

 

BECAUSE SOME OF OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS LIVE OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES, YOU MAY HAVE NO EFFECTIVE RECOURSE AGAINST THEM FOR MISCONDUCT AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ENFORCE JUDGMENTS AND CIVIL LIABILITIES AGAINST THEM. INVESTORS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RECEIVE COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGES TO THE VALUE OF THEIR INVESTMENT CAUSED BY WRONGFUL ACTIONS BY OUR DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.


 
 

 

 

Some of our officers and directors live outside the U.S. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the U.S. any judgments obtained against those officers and directors, or obtain judgments against them outside of the U.S. that are predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state thereof. Investors may not be able to receive compensation for damages to the value of their investment caused by wrongful actions by our directors and officers.

 

OUR BYLAWS PROVIDE FOR INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS AT OUR EXPENSE AND LIMIT THEIR LIABILITY WHICH MAY RESULT IN A MAJOR COST TO US AND HURT THE INTERESTS OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS BECAUSE CORPORATE RESOURCES MAY BE EXPENDED FOR THE BENEFIT OF OFFICERS AND/OR DIRECTORS.

 

Our bylaws and applicable Nevada law provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney's fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities conducted on our behalf. We will also bear the expenses of such litigation for any of our directors, officers, employees or agents upon such person's written promise to repay us if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by us which we will be unable to recoup. At this time we do not carry liability insurance for our officers and directors.

 

We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification for liabilities arising under federal securities laws, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will (unless in the opinion of our counsel, the matter has been settled by controlling precedent) submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question whether indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The legal process relating to this matter if it were to occur is likely to be very costly and may result in us receiving negative publicity, either of which factors is likely to materially reduce the market and price for our shares, if such a market ever develops.

 

OUR COMMON STOCK IS CONSIDERED A PENNY STOCK, WHICH MAY BE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON MARKETABILITY, SO YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR SHARES.

 

We are subject to the penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission that require brokers to provide extensive disclosure to their customers prior to executing trades in penny stocks. These disclosure requirements may cause a reduction in the trading activity of our common stock, which in all likelihood would make it difficult for our stockholders to sell their securities.

 

Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The broker-dealer must also make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

THERE IS NO ASSURANCE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PUBLIC MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK OR THAT OUR COMMON STOCK WILL EVER TRADE ON A RECOGNIZED EXCHANGE. THEREFORE, YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO LIQUIDATE YOUR INVESTMENT IN OUR STOCK.

 

There is no established public trading market for our common stock. While our stock is listed on the OTCBB, a market for our stock has yet to develop and there can be no assurance that a regular trading market will develop or, if developed, that such a market will be sustained. In the absence of a trading market, investors may be unable to liquidate their investments.

 

IF WE ARE DEEMED TO BE AN INVESTMENT COMPANY, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO INSTITUTE BURDENSOME COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS AND OUR ACTIVITIES MAY BE RESTRICTED, WHICH MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR US TO COMPLETE STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS OR EFFECT COMBINATIONS.

 

If we are deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"), our business would be subject to applicable restrictions under that Act, which could make it impracticable for us to continue our business as contemplated.

 

We believe our company is not an investment company due to the exemption under Section 3(b)(1) of the Investment Company Act because we are primarily engaged in a non-investment company business. We intend to conduct our operations so that we will not be deemed an investment company. However, if we were to be deemed an investment company, restrictions imposed by the Investment Company Act including limitations on our capital structure and our ability to transact with affiliates, could make it impractical for us to continue our business as contemplated.

 

 

ITEM 1B.          UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

 

We received comment letters from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") dated October 28, 2014, November 24, 2014, and December 18, 2014 regarding our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for Fiscal Quarter Ended June 30, 2014. These comments are unresolved as of March 31, 2015. However, we have filed with the SEC responses to the comment letters and we are in the process of responding to the third comment letter.

 

In general, the unresolved staff comments relate to (1) whether we should classify our land purchased in 2013 and 2014 as non-current assets on our balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and the subsequent quarters ending in 2014; (2) what the historical cost to the seller for each land purchase is and how to determine such historical cost; (3) whether we should reflect the land purchase transactions in 2013 and 2014 as non-cash on our cash flow statements as of December 31, 2013 and the subsequent quarters ending in 2014.

 

We believe that the ultimate resolution of these comments is to revise our consolidated  financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and the subsequent quarters ending in 2014 by following SEC's further instructions. Also, we believe that such revision will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and/or related notes.

37,273.68 SQUARE METERS OF LAND IN DARONG SECTION, BEITUN DISTRICT OF TAICHUNG CITY, TAIWAN (R.O.C.).

 

We own 37,273.68 square meters of undeveloped land (the "Land-1") in the Darong Section, Beitun District of Taichung City, Taiwan (R.O.C.). The transaction and all pertinent contracts in the transaction are incorporated herein by reference to the Form 8-K filed on September 20, 2013.

 

Qualified Ownership to the Land

 

Although we own the Land-1, the seller of the Land-1, Chang, Cheng-Sung (the "Seller"), reserved certain rights to the Land-1 according to the Land Purchase Contract dated March 26, 2012. Therefore, to date, our ownership to the Land can be regarded as a qualified ownership (an ownership with limitations or conditions).

 

The rights the Seller reserved in the Land Purchase Contract are listed as follows:

 

1.       The Seller may set a maximum limited mortgage to the Land-1. (referred to Section 2 of the Contract)

 

2.       The Seller may decide whether Da Chuang Business Management Consultant Co., Ltd (the "Purchaser") may resell the Land-1 at a price not exceeding TWD $60,000,000. And, once the Purchaser resells the Land-1, the Seller may be entitled to an amount of TWD $60,000,000 of resale price.(referred to Section 3 of the Contract)

 

3.       The Seller may enforce his setting of maximum limited mortgage to Land-1 when one of followings occurs(referred to Section 4 of the Contract):

 

a.       The Purchaser resells the Land-1 at a price not exceeding TWD$60,000,000 without the Seller's consent, and/or

b.       The Purchaser fails to distribute the amount of TWD$60,000,000 to the Seller when the Purchaser is obligated to do such distribution.

 

4.       If the Seller terminates the Contract and assigns to the Purchaser the shares obtained in the Contract, the Seller may repossess the Land-1 and entire title to the Land and may request the Purchaser to pay an amount of TWD$60,000,000. (referred to Section 6 of the Contract)

 

5.       The Seller may refuse to cancel his registration of the maximum limited mortgage to the Land-1 before the shares are released from escrow account. (referred to Section 8 of the Contract)

 

To date, the Seller has not canceled his registration of maximum limited mortgage to the Land-1. There can be no assurance that our qualified ownership to the Land would become an ownership absent of any rights reserved by the Seller in the Contract.

 

Land Description

 

The Land-1 consists of three parcels of land, zoned as a "scenic spot" in a sparsely populated area on the immediate outskirts of Taichung City. The Land's immediate surroundings consist of agricultural and forested areas. We have not yet determined our specific use for the Land-1, although we either intend to use it to develop scenic/tourist-related real estate or hold it for later sale when we need to raise funds.

 

RE-SALE of 29,332.7000 SQUARE METERS OF LAND LOCATED IN THE XINHUA SECTION OF XINPI TOWNSHIP, PINGTUN COUNTY, TAIWAN (R.O.C.)

 

The 29,332.7000  square meters of undeveloped land in the Xinhua Section of Xinpi Township, Pingtun County, Taiwan (R.O.C.) (the "Land-2") owned by our subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc. ("Green Forest") has been sold out on December 4, 2014. The transaction and all pertinent contracts in the transaction are disclosed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Land Description


 
 

 

 

The Land-2 consists of 12 parcels of land, totaling 29,332.7000 square meters, in the Hsinhua Section of Hsinpi Township, Pingtun County, Taiwan (R.O.C.). The Land is zoned as "agricultural region" and is located in a sparsely populated agricultural region.  

 

CANCELLED TRANSACTION TO PURCHASE 76,435 SQUARE METERS OF LAND LOCATED IN ZAOQIAO TOWNSHIP AND TOUWU TOWNSHIP, MIAOLI COUNTY, TAIWAN (R.O.C.)

 

On December 27, 2013, our subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc.

ITEM 3.          LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Our management knows of no material existing or pending legal proceeding, litigation or claim against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material existing legal proceeding or pending legal proceeding, litigation or claim.

 

Yu Chien-Yang, our vice president and a member of our board of directors, was indicted by the Taichung District Prosecutor's Office of Taichung County, Taiwan (R.O.C.) on May 17, 2013. The indictment in no way involves San Lotus Holding Inc. or any of our subsidiaries and the matters described therein do not include any conduct involving, by, or on behalf of the Company or any of our subsidiaries.

 

The enforcement actions were brought against seven individuals, including Mr. Yu, alleging violations of Taiwan's banking and securities laws in connection with disclosure issues related to a single corporate bond issuance. The action predates Mr. Yu's employment with the Company and is in connection with Mr. Yu's service at another company, Da Chuang Business Management Consultant Co., Ltd. and its subsidiary, Da Ren International Investments Inc., which had conducted a general solicitation of its corporate bonds to the general public in the year 2010. We do not expect this litigation to have a material effect on our business.

ITEM 7.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of San Lotus Holding Inc. ("San Lotus" or the "Company") should be read in conjunction with our financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. References in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations or Plan of Operations to "us, " "we, " "our" and similar terms refer to the Company. This discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "plan," "continuing," "ongoing," "expect," "believe " "intend," "may," "will, " "should," "could" and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements.

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

San Lotus Holding Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 21, 2011 to market travel products and services to the growing "baby boomer" market, with an initial focus on the Asian market. Our business plan for the next twelve months includes the following anticipated milestones:

 

1.      Developing Travel Agency in Taiwan-September 1, 2013- throughout the life of Company

 

Our plan of developing our travel agency in Taiwan includes: seeking to be (1) approved by Taiwan government to operate travel agency in Taiwan and (2) meeting the statutory requirements related to capital requirements, statutory reserves and employing fit, proper and qualified management. We anticipate that we may obtain the approval from Taiwan government by the end of 2015.The total cost we have incurred and/or anticipated to engage such development is listed as "set-up cost" and "operating expenses" in page 2. Developing travel agency in Taiwan is an ongoing effort that will continue during the life of the Company. To facilitate our developing efforts, we are actively seeking additional funding on favorable terms to continue our development in Taiwan.

 

If additional funding is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our development in Taiwan and continue our operations. We plan to be funded by private placement of our equity securities and/or mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully develop travel agency in Taiwan.

 

2.      Acquisition of additional Travel Agencies -January 18, 2013- throughout the life of Company

 

We have entered into non-binding letters of intent to acquire the following travel agencies and expect to complete the acquisitions by the end of 2015:

 

Company

Location

USA XO Tours Inc.

 

Rosemead, CA

XO Tours Canada Ltd.

Vancouver, BC, Canada

See World Holiday Ltd.

Vancouver, BC, Canada

Grandfair Travel Ltd.

Vancouver, BC, Canada

Lok Yee Holiday Limited

Hong Kong

Sian Lian Hua International Travel Inc.

Taipei, Taiwan

SmileViet, JSC

Hanoi, Vietnam

Tourmaster Travel Service Inc.

Taipei, Taiwan

Vietlink International Travel (HK) Ltd.

Hong Kong

 

As a general note, we expect the travel agencies will be able to continue to operate as they have been, although we will integrate them into San Lotus by utilizing a comprehensive accounting system and assisting them in their further development. Although the non-binding letters of intent to acquire the travel agencies above were entered, we remain in the preliminary discussion with them about the specific considerations to acquire each of them. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing such acquisitions.

 

19

 


 
 

 

Acquiring travel agencies located both within and outside of Taiwan is an ongoing effort that will continue during the life of the Company. To facilitate our acquisition efforts, we will actively seeking additional funding on favorable terms to continue our acquisition. If additional funding is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our acquisition plan and continue our operations. We plan to be funded by private placement of our equity securities and/or mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully complete our acquisition of travel agencies.

 

3.      Acquisition of additional land or land holding companies-Third quarter of 2013- throughout the life of Company

 

San Lotus was designated a shell corporation until our wholly-owned subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc. ("Green Forest") acquired Da Ren International Development Inc., a Taiwan (R.O.C.) land holding corporation ("Da Ren"), on September 17, 2013. Da Ren's sole asset is 32,273.68 square meters of land located in Taichung City, Beitun District, Taiwan (R.O.C.). We acquired Da Ren for $3,070,645. The transaction and all pertinent contracts in the transaction were disclosed in the current report on Form-8-K filed on September 20, 2013.

 

With the acquisition of Da Ren, we are not only developing our travel agency in Taiwan, an ongoing process in our development, but also acquiring land and land holding companies, as well as acquiring travel agencies located both within and outside of Taiwan. After acquisition of Da Ren, we continue to acquire the lands in Xinpi Township, Pingtun County, Taiwan (R.O.C.). Such acquisitions are herein incorporated by reference to Item 2 of this annual report on Form 10-K.

 

In addition to our acquisition of Da Ren, we have entered into letters of intent to acquire the following land and land holding companies in Taiwan. We expect to complete these acquisitions by the end of 2015.

 

Land or Land Holding Company

 

Expected Acquisition Date

Da Ren International Development Inc.

 

Third uarter 2013 (completed September 2013)

Xinpi Land

 

Fourth Quarter 2013 (completed October 2013)

Den Wei Yuan Land

 

The end of 2015

Yao De International Recreation Inc.

 

The end of 2015

Mao Ren International Inc.

 

The end of 2015

 

We do not feel we are able to evaluate the land holdings accurately or make definitive plans for how to utilize the land and land holding companies until we can evaluate the properties as a whole. But, to date, we plan to use the land as follows: (1) dispose of the land for cash to develop other properties, (2) mortgage the land so that we may develop it ourselves, (3) enter into a joint venture with another developer or (4) use the land to capitalize other companies. We will evaluate this further once we complete the above listed acquisitions.

 

Except for the completed acquisitions of Da Ren International Development Inc. and Xinpi Land, we remain in the preliminary discussion about the specific consideration in acquiring other land or land holding companies. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing the acquisitions other than the completed acquisitions. Acquiring land and/or land Holding companies is an ongoing effort that will continue during the life of the Company. To facilitate our acquisition efforts, we will actively seeking additional funding on favorable terms to continue our acquisition. If additional funding is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our acquisition plan and continue our operations. We plan to be funded by private placement of our equity securities and/or obtaining the loan by mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully complete our acquisition of the land or land holding companies.

 

Results of Operations

For the period ended December 31, 2014, we had no revenue. Operating Expenses for the period ended December 31, 2014, totaled $186,525.

 

 

 

20

 


 
 

 

 

Capital Resources and Liquidity

 

Excluding our planned acquisitions, we expect the running of San Lotus Holding, Green Forest and Da Ren to require approximately $240,000 to carry out planned operations for the next 12 months. This includes as follows:

 

We expect our monthly expenses to continue at the rate of $20,000 after December 31, 2014, not including the costs we will incur in running any of our planned acquisitions or embarking on any real estate development activities. To meet our needs for cash required for sustain our businesses and completing our planned acquisitions, we will need to generate sufficient revenues or require additional funding.

 

As of December 31, 2014, we had $13,159 cash in the bank, $2,930 cash held by our wholly-owned Taiwan (R.O.C.) subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc. and $5,554 cash held by our wholly-owned Taiwan (R.O.C.) subsidiary Da Ren International Development Inc. Thus, San Lotus and Da Ren will not have enough funds to support themselves for remaining months, and Green Forest are already almost out of funds, We will likely have to borrow funds from our President and Chairman, Chen Li-Hsing, to sustain our operations until we are able to complete a private placement of our equity securities and/or mortgage our land.

 

As to our planned acquisitions, although the non-binding letters of intent to acquire the travel agencies were entered, we remain in the preliminary discussion with them about the specific considerations to acquire each of them. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing such acquisitions. Additionally, except for the completed acquisitions of Da Ren International Development Inc. and Xinpi land We remain in the preliminary discussion about the specific consideration in acquiring other land or land holding companies. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing the acquisitions other than the completed acquisitions.

 

If we require additional funding to complete our planned acquisitions, we will actively seeking additional funding by completing a private placement of our equity securities and/or mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. And, there can be no assurance that our existing shareholders will provide us with additional capital. Finally, if we are unable to generate sufficient revenue and/or obtain additional funding, we may have to cease operations entirely. We cannot guarantee that our operations and proceeds from any funding will be sufficient for us to continue as going concern.

 

Revenue targets

The Company anticipates no revenues be made in the early stages of completing our plan of operations.

Core services

The Company is incorporated to market its travel products and services to the growing "baby boomer" market, with an initial focus on the Asian market, which is herein incorporated by reference to Item 1 of this annual report on Form 10K.

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.

Based upon the above, we believe that to continue our daily operation and implement our plan of operations, we will actively seeking additional funding on favorable terms. If additional funding is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our operation plans and continue our operations. We plan to be funded by private placement of our equity securities and/or obtaining the loan by mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully continue our operation and/or complete our plan of operations.  

 


 
 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Going Concern

 

At present, we have no enough cash to pay for our selling, general and administrative expenses. As such, in order to continue developing our operations as planned, we may be reliant on obtaining additional funding by private placement of our equity securities and/or obtaining the loan by mortgage our land. But, there can be no assurance we will be funded as such. Thus, there can be no assurance we will successfully continue our operation and/or complete our plan of operations Based on these assumptions, our auditor has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

OUTLOOK

 

By the end of 2015, in addition to the planned acquisitions listed in this Item, we intend to complete more acquisitions of lands; land holding companies; and/or travel agencies. We remain in the preliminary discussion with the acquired parties about the specific considerations in such acquisitions. Thus, to date, we are not able to estimate any specific costs in completing such acquisitions.

 

Once we have completed such acquisitions, we will evaluate our land holdings as a group and develop an overall plan for how to proceed going forward.

 

At that time, and once we determine more definitively how the land will be utilized, we will develop cost projections, milestones and plans for financing the land's development. At present, we anticipate that we will have the following four development objectives for the properties: (1) dispose of the land for cash, (2) mortgage the land to develop it ourselves, or (3) use the land to enter into a joint venture with another developer or (4) use the land to capitalize other companies.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

It is our goal to clearly present our financial information in a manner that enhances the understanding of our sources of earnings and cash flows, as well as our financial condition. We do this by including the information required by the SEC, as well as providing additional information that gives further insight into our financial operations.

 

Our financial report includes a discussion of our accounting principles, as well as methods and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

We believe these discussions and statements fairly represent the financial position and operating results of our company. The purpose of this portion of our discussion is to further emphasize some of the more critical areas where a significant change in facts and circumstances in our operating and financial environment could cause a change in future reported financial results.

 

Impact of Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were no recent accounting pronouncements that have had a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Policies

 

We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 7A.           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We do not take positions or engage in transactions in risk-sensitive market instruments in any substantial degree, nor as defined by SEC rules and instructions. Based on the nature of our current operations, we have not identified any issues of market risk at this time.

 

ITEM 8.            FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

 

The information to be reported under this item is submitted in a separate section of this report. See Index to Consolidated Financial Statements on Page F-1.

 

ITEM 9.           CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING

AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A.           CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

 

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our chief executive officer. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2013 due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which is described below.

 

Management identified significant deficiencies related to (i) the lack of U.S. GAAP expertise of our chief financial officer, (ii) the lack of U.S. GAAP expertise of our internal accounting staff, and (iii) the company's failure to have a board of directors consisting of a majority of independent directors and our lack of a director who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. We will be addressing these weaknesses in the near term as the Company develops.

 

Changes in Internal Controls.

 

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

San Lotus Holding Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of San Lotus Holding Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the periods then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's Management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods then ended, are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 940,437 as of December 31, 2014 and has had no revenue since its inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1, which includes the raising of additional bank financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SAN LOTUS HOLDING INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014

 

NOTE 1- NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

San Lotus Holding Inc., a company in the developmental stage (the "Company" or "San Lotus"), was incorporated on June 21, 2011 in the State of Nevada. The Company is in the initial stages of opening a travel agency in Taiwan through its wholly owned subsidiary, Green Forest Management Consulting Inc., a Taiwan company. The Company has not conducted business operations nor had revenues from operations since its inception. The Company's business plan is to design and market global travel packages and affinity travel excursions throughout the world, and develop a global travel and leisure agency business. The Company's year-end is December 31.

 

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of San Lotus Holding Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

 

Going Concern

These financial statements were prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $940,437as of December 31, 2014, and it had no revenue from operations since its inception. The Company faces all the risks common to companies at the development stage, including capitalization and uncertainty of funding sources, high initial expenditure levels, uncertain revenue streams, and difficulties in managing growth. The Company's losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company is currently addressing its liquidity issue by continually seeking investment capital through private placements of common stock and debt. The Company believes its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this time. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities other than the normal course of business and at amounts which may differ from those in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

Property & Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:

 

Building

 

40 years 

Vehicles

 

5 years 

Equipments

 

3~5 years 

As of December 31, 2014, the Company's property and equipment consisted of the following:

Building

346,256

(87,680)

Property and equipment - net

 

$

3,427,998

Depreciation expenses were $53,928for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"). ASC 718 requires the recognition of compensation expense, using a fair-value based method, for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options. ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the grant date using an option pricing model. The Company does not have any awards of stock-based compensation issued and outstanding at December 31, 2013.

 

Loss Per Share

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share ("ASC 260-10"), which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic earnings per share have been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of the diluted loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2014, the Company did not have any common equivalent shares.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment ("ASC 360-10"). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its long lived assets for impairment annually or more often if events and circumstances warrant. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon

forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. Management has determined that no impairments of long-lived assets currently exist.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some or all of any deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Foreign-currency Transactions

oreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars ("NTD") at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Gains or losses resulting from the application of different foreign exchange rates when cash in foreign currency is converted into New Taiwan dollars, or when foreign-currency receivables or payables are settled, are credited or charged to income in the year of conversion or settlement. On the balance sheet dates, the balances of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are restated at the prevailing exchange rates and the resulting differences are charged to current income except for those foreign currencies denominated investments in shares of stock where such differences are accounted for as translation adjustments under stockholders' equity.

 

Translation Adjustment

The Company financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar ($), which is the Company's reporting currency, while its functional currency is the New Taiwan dollar ("NTD"). Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of income. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the statements of income.

 

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translates the assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars ($) using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of operations and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation from NTD into U.S. dollars are recorded in stockholders' equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash flows from the Company's operations are based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, " to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amended guidance changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU in the first quarter of 2012 and does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, "Intangiblesoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, " which modifies the impairment test for goodwill. Under the new guidance, an entity is permitted to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that the reporting unit's fair value is less than the carrying value before applying the two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place. If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that a reporting unit's fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU in the first quarter of 2012 and does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
