PART I
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS
History and Overview
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 28, 2006 under the name Loreto Corporation. The Company was formed to design, print, market and sell greeting cards, wrapping paper, stationery products and collectibles in retail locations throughout Mexico. Between 2006 and 2013 the Company underwent name changes and ultimately redirected its primary business focus to seek quality assets and investment opportunities.
As of March 11, 2013, we sold 1,300 shares of our Series A convertible preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (Series A Preferred Stock), to Commonwealth Investments, LLC, a California limited liability company (Commonwealth). These shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of 12,770,339,600 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 99.0% of our common equity on an as-converted basis.
On March 22, 2013, we changed our name to HK International Group, Inc., and increased our number of authorized shares of capital stock to 3,000,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 2,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) 1,000,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, 1,300 shares of which have previously been designated as Series A Preferred Stock.
In April 2013, the Company effectuated a reverse split of the Companys common stock on the basis of one share for each 100 shares issued and outstanding.
On June 21, 2013, we changed our name to Hygeialand Biomedical Corporation. Following FINRAs approval, on July 11, 2013, the name change, and the change of our trading symbol to HBMC, became effective in the market.
On July 12, 2013, in connection with the change of our business focus (described above), we split off our wholly-owned Peruvian subsidiary, Loreto Resources Peru S.R.L. Compania Minera (the Subsidiary) to Luis F. Saenz, our former sole officer and director (the Split-Off). In connection with the Split-Off, (1) we contributed, assigned, conveyed and transferred all of our assets and property and all of our debts, adverse claims, liabilities, judgments and obligations relating to the Subsidiary, whether accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether known or unknown, to Mr. Saenz; (2) we transferred all of the outstanding capital stock of the Subsidiary to Mr. Saenz; (3) Mr. Saenz agreed to indemnify us and our officers and directors against any third party claims relating to the Subsidiary; and (4) the Subsidiary and Mr. Saenz released us and our present and former officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents, attorneys and representatives from any and all claims, actions, obligations, liabilities and the like, incurred or suffered by the Subsidiary or Mr. Saenz arising from, relating to or in any way connected with, any fact, event, transaction, action or omission that occurred or failed to occur on or prior to the Split-Off and related to the Subsidiary.
On July 23, 2013, we changed our name to Angstron Holdings Corporation. Following FINRAs approval, on August 19, 2013, the name change, and the change of our trading symbol to ANGP, became effective in the market.
On August 7, 2013, we increased our number of authorized shares of capital stock to 6,000,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 5,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) 1,000,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, 1,300 shares of which have previously been designated as Series A Preferred Stock.
On December 9, 2014, we closed a private placement offering, pursuant to which we sold 3,683 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock to Yunfeng Lu for an aggregate purchase price of $336,667. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of 358,278,987 shares of our Common Stock, at a rate $0.0000102796985970042 per share, beginning one year after the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock.
On July 31, 2015, we changed our name to HK Graphene Technology Corporation. The name change was made pursuant to Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes by merging a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into the Company. The Company is the surviving corporation and, in connection with the merger, Article One of the Companys Articles of Incorporation was amended to change the Companys corporate name to HK Graphene Technology Corporation, pursuant to Articles of Merger filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. Following FINRAs approval, the change of our trading symbol to HKGT, became effective in the market.
Going forward, our plan is to acquire other assets or business operations that will maximize shareholder value. However, no specific assets or businesses have been definitively identified and there is no certainty that any such assets or business will be identified or any transactions will be consummated.

Recent Changes to Management
On February 9, 2015, Jianguo Xu resigned as the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary of the Company in connection with Mr. Xus resignation, the Board of Directors of the Company designated Chunhua Huang, Ph.D. to serve and perform the functions of Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Shuning Luo, to serve and perform the functions of the Secretary.
On September 28, 2015, Dr. Yunfeng Lu resigned as director of the Company.
Research and Development
Effective as of June 1, 2015, the Company entered into a Gift Agreement (the Agreement) with The Regents of the University of California (Regents of the University), acting through the offices of the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA School of Engineering and Applied Science), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pledge $3,500,000 over a seven (7) year period with the initial payment of $500,000 made on December 31, 2015, to the Regents of the University, in support of a research center at the UCLA School of Engineering and Applied Science.

ITEM 1B.
UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
On October 22, 2015, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) requested that we make arrangements with our auditors to revise the opinion paragraph of their audit report to also cover the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 and the statements of operations, changes in stockholders deficit and cash flows for the year then ended, consistent with the first paragraph of their audit report. The SEC asked that we further amend our Form 10-K to include the auditors revised report. On November 3, 2015, we filed an amendment to our 10-K to include the revised audit report from our auditors in response to the SEC letter, which we believe fulfilled the SECs request. We have not yet received a response from the SEC.

Because our Common Stock is thinly traded, bid information on our Common Stock does not necessarily represent its fair market value.
Holders
As of April 11, 2016, we had 538,695,519 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding held by 25 shareholders of record.
Dividends
We have never declared any cash dividends with respect to our Common Stock. Future payment of dividends is within the discretion of our Board and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors. Although there are no material restrictions limiting, or that are likely to limit, our ability to pay dividends on our Common Stock, we presently intend to retain future earnings, if any, for use in our business and have no present intention to pay cash dividends on our Common Stock.
Securities Authorized For Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
On July 3, 2008, our Board and stockholders adopted the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2008 Plan) which reserves a total of 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2008 Plan. If an incentive award granted under the 2008 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to us in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2008 Plan. As of December 31, 2015 we have not issued any shares and there are no outstanding grants under the 2008 Plan.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On March 8, 2013, we entered into Promissory Note Conversion Agreements (the Conversion Agreements) with each of the holders of all of our outstanding convertible promissory notes as of the date thereof (collectively, the Notes), pursuant to which, among other things, an aggregate of $430,538 of principal and accrued and unpaid interest due under the Notes, representing all of our outstanding indebtedness for money borrowed on March 8, 2013, was converted into a total of 57,405,074 shares of our Common Stock, at a conversion rate of $0.0075 per share (the Debt Conversion Transaction). The securities were issued in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder inasmuch as the securities were offered and sold solely to accredited investors and we did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in making the offering.
The Company evaluated the Conversion Agreements under FASB ASC Topic 815 40 for derivative treatment and determined that the conversion options are required to be accounted for as a derivative upon the aforementioned closing of the next private placement offering. As the closing had not occurred prior to the aforementioned Note conversions on March 8, 2013, and as per FASB ASC Topic 470 20, neither the derivative instrument nor the beneficial conversion feature need to be accounted for through the date of the promissory note conversions.
On March 11, 2013, we closed a private placement offering, pursuant to which we sold 1,300 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to Commonwealth for an aggregate purchase price of $130,000. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of 12,770,339,600 shares of our Common Stock, at a rate of $0.0000102826655692955 per share. The securities were issued in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder inasmuch as the securities were offered and sold solely to an accredited investor and we did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in making the offering.
On December 9, 2014, we closed a private placement offering, pursuant to which we sold 3,683 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock to Yunfeng Lu for an aggregate purchase price of $336,667. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of 358,278,987 shares of our Common Stock, at a rate $0.0000102796985970042 per share, beginning one year after the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock. The securities were issued in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act inasmuch as the securities were offered and sold solely to an accredited investor and we did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in making the offering.
Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion highlights the principal factors that have affected our financial condition and results of operations as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Please see Forward-Looking Statements for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these forward-looking statements.
Results of Operations
Fiscal years Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014
We are still in our development stage and have generated no revenues to date.
We incurred operating expenses of $1,547,243 and $1,246,105 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These expenses consisted of general operating expenses incurred in connection with the day to day operation of our business and the preparation and filing of our periodic reports.
Our net losses for years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were $1,627,244 and $1,328,221, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance as of December 31, 2015 was $1,387,807.
On December 7, 2014, we sold 3,683 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock to Yunfeng Lu, for an aggregate purchase price of $336,667. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the Series B Preferred Stock to pay outstanding obligations to advisors, service providers, research and vendors, and to pay any outstanding tax liabilities.
Working Capital Needs
We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to our brief history and historical operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity. At our current level of operation, we do not have sufficient cash to meet our expenses for the next twelve months. We expect that we will need to obtain additional capital in order to meet our current working capital needs, execute our business plan, build our operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our Common Stock or debt securities, or borrow funds from private lenders or banking institutions. We have not made any decisions with respect to any such financing. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional funding as necessary, we may have to suspend our operations temporarily or cease operations entirely.
Our auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our consolidated financial statements relating to the uncertainty of our business as a going concern, due to our limited operating history, our lack of historical profitability, and our limited funds. We believe that we will be able to raise the required funds for operations and to achieve our business plan.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
The Company previously reported the information required by this Item 9 in its Form 8-K filed on January 24, 2014, Form 8-K filed on February 3, 2014, Form 8-K filed on February 19, 2014, Form 8-K filed on March 5, 2014 and Form 8-K filed on June 11, 2015.
ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, consisting of Luis Saenz, our former President and Interim Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of what might be deemed a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is identified below.
Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our sole officer concluded that, during the period covered by this annual report, our internal controls over financial reporting were not operating effectively. Management did not identify any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015; however, it has identified the following deficiencies that, when aggregated, may possibly be viewed as a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of that date:
1.
We do not have an audit committee. We are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however, it is managements view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal controls and procedures.
2.
We did not maintain proper segregation of duties for the preparation of our financial statements. We currently only have one officer overseeing all transactions. This has resulted in several deficiencies including the lack of control over preparation of financial statements, and proper application of accounting policies.
10
Attestation Report of Our Registered Public Accounting Firm
This Annual Report on Form 10-K (Annual Report) does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We are a non-accelerated filer; therefore, managements report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only managements report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Officers Certifications
Appearing as exhibits to this Annual Report are Certifications of our President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Certifications are required pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This section of the Annual Report contains information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certification. This information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

ITEM 13.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
On December 7, 2014, we entered into a Cooperation Agreement with Yunfeng Lu, as amended by that certain Cooperation and Consulting Services Agreement dated January 14, 2015, whereby Mr. Lu, who, at the time of entering into the Cooperation Agreement, was the beneficial owner of 3,683 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock (which was convertible into an aggregate of 358,278,987 shares of our Common Stock, representing approximately 73.53% of the Companys common equity on an as-converted basis) received consideration of $150,000 per annum to develop certain know-how, technology and/or patents related to the production and manufacturing of nanographene and battery materials for the Company, as more fully described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 15, 2015. As of October 1, 2015, the Cooperation Agreement was terminated and Mr. Lu sold one hundred percent (100%) of his shares in the Company.
Director Independence
We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the Board be independent and, as a result, we are not at this time required to (and we do not) have our Board comprised of a majority of Independent Directors.
Our Board has considered the independence of its directors in reference to the definition of independent director established by the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). In doing so, the Board has reviewed all commercial and other relationships of each director in making its determination as to the independence of its directors. After such review, the Board has determined that neither of our current directors qualifies as independent under the requirements of the Nasdaq listing standards.

HK GRAPHENE TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2015
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
HK Graphene Technology Corp., formerly known as Angstron Holdings Corporation (the Company), was incorporated on June 28, 2006 in the state of Nevada under the name Loreto Corporation. The Company pursued its original business plan to create, market and sell greeting cards to wholesalers and retail customers in shopping malls in its own planned retail shops. However, in 2008, the Company decided to redirect its business focus and strategy toward identifying and pursuing business opportunities in the mining sector in South America, and specifically, in Peru. The Company later changed its name to Loreto Resources Corporation, and subsequently to HK International Group Inc., and subsequently to Angstron Holdings Corporation. On July 31, 2015 the Company changed its name to HK Graphene Technology Corporation. As of December 31, 2015, American Compass, Inc. owned 99.9% of the company.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and for the years then ended have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company's cash are with local and national banking institutions and subjected to current FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per banking institution. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company bank balances in these bank accounts exceeded the insured amount by $1,137,807 and $2,679,764, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to this concentration of risk. There are no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Basic Earnings per Share
Basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (EPS) amounts in the financial statements are computed in accordance with ASC Topic 260 10 Earnings per Share, which establishes the requirements for presenting EPS. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income/loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator during the period. Weighted average number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted loss per share is considered the same as the effect of dilutive shares is anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, carrying value of assets and liabilities approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments.
F-9
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. ASU 2014-10 eliminates the distinction of a development stage entity and certain related disclosure requirements, including the elimination of inception-to-date information on the statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-10 during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, thereby no longer presenting or disclosing any information required by Topic 915.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspect of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of June 28, 2006, and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and Nevada as our major tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2007 through 2014 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.
We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes. We have no interest or penalties as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
NOTE 3. GOING CONCERN
During the period ended December 31, 2015, the Company has not generated any revenue and therefore has been unable to generate cash flows sufficient to support its operations and has been dependent on debt and equity financing. In addition to negative cash flow from operations, the Company has experienced recurring net losses, and has an accumulated deficit of $7,496,378 as of December 31, 2015.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Going forward, the Companys plan is to acquire other assets or business operations that will maximize shareholder value.
