VALUE EXCHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business 

 

Value Exchange International, Inc. (“VEII”, “Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 26, 2007. The Company’s principal business, conducted through its operating subsidiaries, is to provide customer-centric solutions for the retail industry in China, Hong Kong SAR and Manila, Philippines. By integrating market-leading Point-of-Sale/Point-of-Interaction (“POS/POI”), Merchandising, Customer Relations Management or “CRM” and related rewards, Locational Based (Global Positing System (“GPS”) and Indoor Positioning System (“IPS”)) Marketing, Customer Analytics and Business Intelligence solutions, VEII provides retailers with the capability to offer a consistent shopping experience across all marketing and sales channels, enabling them to easily and effectively manage the customer lifecycle on a one-to-one basis. VEII promotes itself as a single information technology (“IT”) source for retailers who want to extend existing traditional transaction processing to multiple points of interaction, including the Internet, kiosks and wireless devices. VEII services are focused on helping retailers realize the full benefits of Customer Chain Management with its suite of solutions that focus on the customer, on employees, and the infrastructure that supports the selling channels. VEII’s retail solutions are installed in an estimated 30%-40% of suitable POS/POI-suitable retailers in Hong Kong and Manila, Philippines, processing tens of millions of transactions a year. Company is headquartered in Hong Kong and with field offices in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, China; Manila, Philippines; and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

 

On January 1, 2014, VEII received 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Value Exchange Int’l. (China) Limited (“VEI CHN”) in exchange for i) newly issued 12,000,000 shares of VEII’s common stock to the majority stockholder of VEI CHN; and ii) 166,667 shares of our common stock held by VEI CHN to be transferred to the majority stockholder of VEI CHN (“Share Exchange”). This transaction resulted in the owners of VEI CHN obtaining a majority voting interest in VEII. The merger of VEI CHN into VEII, which has nominal net assets, resulted in VEI CHN having control of the combined entities. The issuance of securities was done outside the U.S. to non-U.S. entities and persons.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the transaction represents a "reverse merger" rather than a business combination and VEII is deemed to be the accounting acquiree in the transaction. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization. VEII is the legal acquirer but accounting acquiree for financial reporting purposes and VEI CHN is the acquired company but accounting acquirer. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that will be reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the transaction will be those of VEI CHN and will be recorded at the historical cost basis of VEI CHN, and no goodwill was recognized in this transaction. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the transaction includes the assets and liabilities of VEI CHN and VEII, and the historical operations of VEII and the combined operations of VEI CHN from the initial closing date of the transaction.

 

The Company provides IT Business’ services and solutions to the retail sector through three operating subsidiaries located in Hong Kong SAR and People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

 

On September 2, 2008 VEI CHN established its first operating subsidiary, Value Exchange Int’l (Shanghai) Limited (“VEI SHG”) in Shanghai, PRC, under the laws of the PRC. VEI SHG engages in software development, trading and servicing of computer hardware and software activities.

 

On September 25, 2008, VEI CHN acquired its second operating subsidiary, TAP Services (HK) Limited in Hong Kong, which subsequently changed its name to Value Exchange Int’l (Hong Kong) Limited (“VEI HKG”) on May 14, 2013. VEI HKG engages in software development, trading and servicing of computer hardware and software activities.

 

On May 14, 2013, VEI CHN further established another operating subsidiary, Ke Dao Solutions Limited in Hong Kong, which subsequently changed its name to Cumberbuy.com Limited (“CUMBERBUY”) on May 26, 2017. CUMBERBUY conducts consultancy services for IT Services and Solutions activities. On May 21, 2018, VEI CHN disposed of CUMBERBUY with consideration of HK$1. CUMBERBUY was not a material operation or asset of VEII and had no operations or revenues.

 

In January 2017, VEI CHN acquired 100% of the capital stock of TapServices, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of the Philippines (the “TSI”). TSI engages in software development, trading and servicing of computer hardware and software activities in Philippines. TSI is operated as a subsidiary of VEI CHN. Prior to and continuing after the acquisition, TSI relied on VEI CHN for provision of IT services and this reliance continues into the fiscal quarter of this Form 10-Q Report.

 

As of June 30, 2018, all four subsidiaries are wholly-owned by the Company.

VALUE EXCHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

 

a)Basis of Presentation 

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and include the financial statements of the Company and all its wholly-owned subsidiaries that require consolidation. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31st. The following entities were consolidated as of June 30, 2018:

 

 

 

Place of incorporation

 

Ownership percentage

Value Exchange International, Inc.

b)Use of Estimates 

 

Preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring using management’s estimates and assumptions relate to the collectability of its receivables, the fair value and accounting treatment of financial instruments, the valuation of long-lived assets and valuation of deferred tax liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. In addition, different assumptions or circumstances could reasonably be expected to yield different results. VEII cannot foresee all circumstances and factors that affect actual results of operations.

 

c)Cash and Cash Equivalents 

 

For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of six months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC and Hong Kong.

 

d)Interim Financial Statements 

 

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.

 

e)Accounts receivable and other receivables 

 

Receivables include trade accounts due from customers and other receivables such as cash advances to employees, utility deposits paid and advances to suppliers. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentration, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Delinquent account balances are written-off after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable and known bad debts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was no allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. Management believes that the remaining accounts receivable are collectable.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

 

f)Inventories  

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost for inventories is determined using the “first-in, first-out” method.

 

Management reviews inventories for obsolescence or cost in excess of net realizable value periodically. The obsolescence, if any, is recorded as a provision against the inventory. The cost in excess of market value is written off and recorded as additional cost of sales.

 

g)Plant and equipment 

 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred. Major additions in plant and equipment are capitalized. When assets 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 plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:

 

 

 

Estimated Useful Life

Leasehold improvements

 

Lesser of lease term or the estimated useful lives of

5 years

Computer equipment

 

5 years

Computer software

 

5 years

Office furniture and equipment

 

5 years

Motor Vehicle

 

3 years

Building

 

5 years

 

h)Goodwill and intangibles 

 

Intangibles with a definite life, including customer relationships and goodwill were recorded in connection with the acquisition of TSI. Intangible assets are amortized based on their estimated economic lives using the straight-line method with estimated lives as follows:

 

 

 

Estimated Economic Life

Customer relationship

 

3 years

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment annually.

 

i)Impairment of long-lived assets 

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including equipment, for impairment at least once per year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. Based on the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment of long-lived assets by comparing the asset's estimated fair value with its carrying value, based on cash flow methodology. If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired and an impairment loss equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset is recognized.

The carrying value of goodwill is evaluated annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in business climate, increased competition or other economic conditions. Under FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is tested at a reporting unit level. The impairment test involves a two-step process. The first step involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to its carrying amount. If this comparison indicates that a reporting unit’s estimated fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is required. If applicable, the second step requires us to allocate the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit’s net assets, with any fair value in excess of amounts allocated to such net assets representing the implied fair value of goodwill for that reporting unit. If the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its fair value, the carrying value is written down by an amount equal to such excess.

 

The goodwill impairment testing process involves the use of significant assumptions, estimates and judgments, and is subject to inherent uncertainties and subjectivity. Estimating a reporting unit’s discounted cash flows involves the use of significant assumptions, estimates and judgments with respect to a variety of factors, including sales, gross margin and selling, general and administrative rates, capital expenditures, cash flows and the selection of an appropriate discount rate. Projected sales, gross margin and selling, general and administrative expense rate assumptions and capital expenditures are based on our annual business plans and other forecasted results. Discount rates reflect market-based estimates of the risks associated with the projected cash flows of the reporting unit directly resulting from the use of its assets in its operations. These estimates are based on the best information available to us as of the date of the impairment assessment.

 

j)Fair value of financial instruments 

 

The Company values its financial instruments as required by FASB ASC 320-12-65. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. Consequently, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized or would be paid in a current market exchange.

 

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

 

Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; 

Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and 

Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

 

Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments; consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, other receivables and prepayments, other payables and accrued liabilities, balances with a related party, balances with related companies and amounts due to director approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these instruments.

 

There was no asset or liability measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

k)Comprehensive income 

 

U.S. GAAP generally requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income or loss. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities are reported as separate components of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income or loss. The components of other comprehensive income or loss consist of foreign currency translation adjustments.

l)Earnings per share 

 

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

m)Revenue recognition 

 

Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured.

 

The Company’s revenue is derived from three primary sources: (i) professional services for systems development and integration, including procurement of related hardware and software licenses on behalf of customers, if required; (ii) professional services for system maintenance normally for a period of one year; and (iii) sale of hardware and consumables during the service performed as stated above.

 

Multiple-deliverable arrangements

 

The Company derives revenue from fixed-price sale contracts with customers that may provide for the Company to procure hardware and software licenses with varied performance specifications specific to each customer and provide the technical services for systems development and integration of the hardware and software licenses. In instances where the contract price is inclusive of the technical services, the sale contracts include multiple deliverables. A multiple-element arrangement is separated into more than one unit of accounting if all of the following criteria are met:

 

The delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis; 

There is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item(s); and 

If the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company. 

 

The Company’s multiple-element contracts generally include customer-acceptance provisions which provide for the Company to carry out installation, test runs and performance tests at the Company’s cost until the systems as a whole can meet the performance specifications stated in the contracts. The delivered equipment and software licenses have no standalone value to the customer until they are installed, integrated and tested at the customer’s site by the Company in accordance with the performance specifications specific to each customer. In addition, under these multiple-element contracts, the Company has not sold the equipment and software licenses separately from the installation, integration and testing services, and hence there is no objective and reliable evidence of the fair value for each deliverable included in the arrangement. As a result, the equipment and the technical services for installation, integration and testing of the equipment are considered a single unit of accounting pursuant to ASC Subtopic 605-25, Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements. In addition, the arrangement generally includes customer acceptance criteria that cannot be tested before installation and integration at the customer’s site. Accordingly, revenue recognition is deferred until customer acceptance, indicated by an acceptance certificate signed off by the customer.

 

Revenues of maintenance services are recognized when the services are performed in accordance with the contract term.

 

Revenues of sale of software, if not bundled with other arrangements, are recognized when shipped and customer acceptance obtained, if all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Costs associated with revenues are recognized when incurred.

 

Revenues are recorded net of value-added taxes, sales discounts and returns. There were no sales returns during the six months period ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

n)Income taxes 

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the reporting period as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

Under the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

 

o)Operating leases 

 

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.

 

p)Advertising costs 

 

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred in the period in which the advertisements and marketing activities are first run or over the life of the endorsement contract. Advertising and marketing expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were insignificant.

 

q)Shipping and handling 

 

Shipping and handling cost incurred to ship computer products to customers are included in selling expenses. Shipping and handling expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were insignificant.

 

r)Research and development costs 

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. Research and development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were insignificant.

s)Foreign currency translation 

 

The functional currency and reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. (“US$” or “$”). The functional currency of the Hong Kong subsidiaries is the Hong Kong Dollar or “HK$”. The functional currency of the PRC subsidiary is the RMB. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as quoted by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (“HKMA”) at the end of the period. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

t)Stock-based Compensation 

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

 

u)Commitments and contingencies 

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Subtopic 450-20, “Loss Contingencies” in determining its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

v)Segment Reporting 

 

The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. Management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results solely by monthly revenue from software development and maintenance services (but not by sub-services/product type or geographic area) and operating results of the Company and, as such, the Company has determined that the Company has one operating segment as defined by ASC Topic 280 “Segment Reporting”.

 

w)Recent accounting pronouncements 

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"), 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The guidance substantially converges final standards on revenue recognition between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board providing a framework on addressing revenue recognition issues and, upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, in current U.S. GAAP. In August 2015, FASB issued its final standard formally amending the effective date of the new revenue recognition guidance. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01 (Subtopic 825-10), Financial Instruments—Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The new guidance will impact the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, FASB clarified the need for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities not under the fair value option is largely unchanged. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods (and interim periods within those annual periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. We do not expect a material impact to the consolidated financial statements due to the adoption of this guidance.

 

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), Leases, which requires that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expenses for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements, but expect that most existing operating lease commitments will be recognized as operating lease obligations and right-of-use assets as a result of adoption.

 

In June 2016, FASB amended guidance related to impairment of financial instruments as part of ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which will be effective on January 1, 2020. The guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with an expected credit loss model for which a group is required to recognize an allowance based on its estimate of expected credit loss. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 provides guidance for targeted changes with respect to how cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on our consolidated statements of cash flows.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

 

In November 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) ("ASU 2016-18"). This ASU affects all entities that have restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This update will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. This ASU clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect a material impact to the consolidated financial statements due to the adoption of this guidance.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-controlling Interests with a Scope Exception. This ASU affects all entities that issue financial instruments (for example, warrants or convertible instruments) that include down round features. Part I of this ASU relates to the recognition, measurement, and earnings per share of certain freestanding equity-classified financial instruments that include down round features affect entities that present earnings per share in accordance with the guidance in Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, while in Part II does not have an accounting effect. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on our consolidated financial statements.

 

VEII has no taxable U.S. income and VEII does not believe that the Tax Cuts and Job Act of 2017 has any impact on VEII financial results and income tax obligations.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

7.Acquisition of a subsidiary (continued) 

 

As of 26 January 2017, VEII received written consents from 9 beneficial owners of an aggregate of 16,095,324 shares of Company Common Stock, $0.00001 par value, (“Common Stock”), which shares represent 54.27% of the aggregate voting power of the Common Stock as of a record date of January 23, 2017 and which written consents approved the Agreement. With the receipt of these written consents, the Agreement was signed by all of the parties to the Agreement and approved by all corporate parties’ board of directors and shareholders.

13.Statutory reserves 

 

Statutory reserves

 

The laws and regulations of the PRC require that before an enterprise distributes profits to its owners, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations in proportions determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors after the statutory reserves.

 

As stipulated by the Company Law of the PRC, as applicable to Chinese companies with foreign ownership, net income after taxation can only be distributed as dividends after appropriation has been made for the following:

 

1.Making up cumulative prior years’ losses, if any; 

 

2.Allocations to the “Statutory surplus reserve” of at least 10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, until the fund amounts to 50% of the company’s registered capital; and; 

 

3.Allocations to the discretionary surplus reserve, if approved in the shareholders’ general meeting. 

 

The statutory reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any. It may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

CORPORATE OVERVIEW

 

History of Value Exchange International, Inc.

 

Organization.

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 26, 2007 under the name “China Soaring Inc.” We changed the Company's name to “Sino Payments, Inc.” on November 26, 2008 and then further changed to the current name as “Value Exchange International, Inc.” in October 2016. Our Common Stock’s trading symbol changed at the same time from “SNPY” to “VEII.” 

 

On January 1, 2014, we received 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of in VEI CHN in exchange for i) newly issued 12,000,000 shares of our Common Stock to the majority stockholder of VEI CHN; and ii) 166,667 shares of our Common Stock held by VEI CHN to be transferred to the majority stockholder of VEI CHN (“Share Exchange”). This transaction resulted in the owners of VEI CHN obtaining a majority voting interest in the Company. The merger of VEI CHN into the Company, which has nominal net assets, results in VEI CHN having control of the combined entity. 

 

For financial reporting purposes, the transaction represents a "reverse merger" rather than a business combination and the Company is deemed to be the accounting acquiree in the transaction. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization. The Company is the legal acquirer but accounting acquiree for financial reporting purposes and VEI CHN is the acquired company but accounting acquirer. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that will be reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the transaction will be those of VEI CHN and will be recorded at the historical cost basis of VEI CHN, and no goodwill will be recognized in this transaction. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the transaction will include the assets and liabilities of VEI CHN and the Company, and the historical operations of the Company and the combined operations of VEI CHN from the initial closing date of the transaction.

Current Business Focus.

 

We are a provider of customer-centric solutions for the retail industry in China, Hong Kong SAR and Philippines. We intend to seek expansion of that territory to other parts of Southeast Asia. By integrating market-leading Point-of-Sale/Point-of-Interaction (“POS/POI”), Merchandising, Customer Relations Management or “CRM” and related rewards, Locational Based (Global Positioning System (“GPS”) and Indoor Positioning System (“IPS”)) Marketing, Customer Analytics, Business Intelligence solutions, our products and services are intended to provide retailers with provide retailers with the capability to offer a consistent shopping experience across all channels, enabling them to easily and effectively manage the customer lifecycle on a one-to-one basis. We promote ourselves as a single information technology (“IT”) source for retailers who wanted to extend existing traditional transaction processing to multiple points of interaction, including the Internet, kiosks and wireless devices. Our products and services are focused on helping retailers realize the full benefits of Customer Chain Management with its suite of solutions that focus on the customer, on employees, and the infrastructure that supports the selling channel. Our retail solutions are installed in an estimated 30%-40% of POS/POI-suitable retailers in Hong Kong and Manila, Philippines, processing tens of millions of transactions a year. Company is headquartered in Hong Kong and with offices in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, China; Manila, Manila, Philippines; and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 

 

We intend to seek expansion of our current geographical markets to other parts of Southeast Asia by seeking new businesses and by possible acquisitions of existing businesses. Seeking new business and expanding our markets will require adequate and affordable funding or working capital and beating competition for the new business. Acquisitions will require finding suitable acquisitions that will agree to terms and conditions acceptable to us and the successful integration of new businesses into our operations. We may be unable to win new business or acquire any new businesses and, consequently, we may be unable to expand our geographical markets.  

 

With the completion of the Share Exchange, the Company, through its operating subsidiaries, has focused on and will focus on its IT Business, and seek to expand its IT Business services to commercial customers in PRC and Asia Pacific Region. This strategy is based upon our subjective business judgment that the IT Business presents more opportunities for potential customer orders in our core markets of Hong Kong SAR and China than the “IP Business” (as defined below) and presents an industry segment that better suits our current technical capabilities, marketing capabilities and financial resources. 

 

Initial Business Focus.

 

Our initial intended, primary business was to operate a credit card processing and merchant-acquiring services company that provided credit card clearing services to merchants and financial institutions in PRC. Since inception, we strived to implement our business plan, including the key step of creating our Global Processing Platform (“SinoPay GPP”). Specifically, the Company’s IP business was to be a provider of Internet Protocol (“IP”) processing services in Asia to bank card-accepting merchants (“IP Business”). We market our services to local merchants with regional retail locations across Asia Pacific as potential customers of their IP and related credit card and debit card processing systems. We offer interoperability through what is envisioned as a highly efficient infrastructure and perceived exceptional knowledge of the IP processing market through our SinoPay GPP platform. The SinoPay GPP system facilitates the processing of all major credit card types (Visa/MC/AMEX/Diners/Discover/JCB) and will is intended to be integrated with China UnionPay to provide processing of UnionPay Debit cards in China. VEII intends to deploy the SinoPay GPP platform throughout Asia with a focus on China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Manila, Philippines, Malaysia, Korea, and Japan. 

 

As of the date of this report, we still have not implemented any IP Business services to any customer. While we have a functioning SinoPay GPP system product for sale, we have yet to sell any SinoPay GPP system to a customer as of the date of this report. We will continue to promote the SinoPay GPP system, but our primary focus is on growing our IT Business because of our strategic decision that IT Business presents greater growth and profit potential than IP Business in the short term. As part of our strategic planning, we will also periodically consider possible alternative means of, and strategies for, developing, promoting or realizing value from the IP Business (other than internal development of the IP Business as a possible, future secondary revenue source of VEII). Further, we believe that the SinoGPP system will require ongoing and potentially expensive marketing and sales effort due to the highly competitive market for Point Of Sale (“POS”) systems and longer sales cycle for POS systems than IT Business project and consulting sales. We may be unable to fund, or be unwilling to pursue, future marketing and sales efforts for the IP Business.

Industry Trends and Economic Conditions.

 

The IT Business in Hong Kong and China is large and fragmented, comprised of thousands of competitors as well as being a highly competitive industry. A general trend affecting our IT Business is the trend of increasing competition for skilled labor. With a global economy and foreign competitors seeking to penetrate Hong Kong and China as markets as well as to tap into new pools of skilled workers in IT Business, we will undoubtedly face increasing competition for skilled workers in IT Business in the Hong Kong and China markets. We may be unable to afford or effectively compete for necessary skilled workers in Hong Kong, Philippines and China and, if we are unable to afford or effectively compete for necessary skilled workers, our growth and ability to attain and sustain profit operations in the IT Business may fail. We have not experienced any significant problems in recruiting necessary skilled workers in fiscal years 2017 or 2018 to date.  

 

A common problem in the IT Business is retaining skilled workers throughout the duration of a project. Due to the global nature of the IT Business and the growing demand for skilled IT Business workers, a skilled IT business worker can often readily find higher paying positions with competitors, whether local or foreign. While we have not experienced retention problems due primarily to our focus on smaller, shorter term IT business projects, we may experience retention of skilled worker problems if we grow our IT Business (especially in new geographical markets in which we so not have established operations or business relationships with local companies) and undertake longer term, more complex IT business projects for customers.  

 

IT Business is often affected by general economic conditions in our markets and any decline in those conditions could adversely impact our business and financial performance. As a smaller reporting company, we may be more vulnerable to adverse general economic conditions than larger competitors. During periods of economic growth, customers general spend more for IT Business products and services. During periods of economic contraction or uncertainty, such spending generally decreases or is deferred. As such, the prospective business for our IT Business is generally greater during periods of economic growth or stability in Hong Kong or China or Manila, Philippines, respectively, and decreases during periods of economic decline or uncertainty in Hong Kong, China or Manila, Philippines. In our global economy, and with PRC being still a principal export economy, adverse economic conditions globally or in other regions can adversely impact economic conditions in Hong Kong, Philippines or China. China has experienced a less dynamic growth in gross national product in the past year and this may reduce the willingness of customers to spend on IT Business or IP Business. 

 

The IT Business is global and, with the growth of cloud computing, there is a growing capability and infrastructure for companies in a foreign nation to provide IT Business to customers around the globe as a complement to cloud computing. We have not seen any significant impact of cloud computing on our IT Business in fiscal years 2017 or fiscal year 2018 to date, but we perceive that the expansion of cloud computing coupled with IT services and products could allow foreign companies to provide IT Business products and services to its cloud computing customers in our Hong Kong and China core markets as well as in the Philippines. We may find it more difficult to compete for IT Business in Hong Kong and China, and perhaps the Philippines, if customers of IT Business elect to have cloud computing companies manage, repair and enhance IT Business products, software and systems. The growth of cloud computing coupled with IT Business products and services as an ancillary component of the cloud computing menu of products and services could adversely impact our IT Business in Hong Kong and China markets as well as the Philippines.  

 

The nature of our IT Business is such that our most significant current asset is accounts receivable. Our most significant current liabilities are payroll related costs, which are generally paid either every two weeks or monthly. If the demand for our IT Business products and services increases, we may generally see an increase in our working capital needs, as we continue to pay our workers on a weekly or monthly basis while the related accounts receivable are outstanding for much longer than normal payment cycle, which may result in a decline in operating cash flows. Conversely, as the demand for our IT Business products and services declines, we may generally see a decrease in our working capital needs, as the existing accounts receivable are collected and not replaced at the same level, resulting in a decline of our accounts receivable balance, with less of an effect on current liabilities due to the shorter cycle time of the payroll related items. This may result in an increase in our operating cash flows; however, any such increase would not be sustainable in the event that a local or global economic downturn continued for an extended period. 

 

In order for us to attain sustained success in the near term, we must continue to maintain and grow our customer base, provide high-quality service and satisfy our existing clients, and take advantage of cross-selling opportunities between the IT Business and IP Business. Sustaining success may also possibly require developing new services or products in the IT Business. Developing new services and products will be highly dependent on our ability to raise affordable, adequate working capital or generate sufficient cash flow from operations. In the current economic environment, we must provide our customers with service offerings that are appropriately priced, satisfy their needs, and provide them with measurable business benefits. While we have recently experienced more demand for our IT Business products and services, we believe that it is too early to determine if developments will translate into sustainable improvements in our pricing or margins in fiscal year 2018 or over the longer term. 


23


 

 

The increasing need for cybersecurity products and technologies may be a future weakness of our business plan. We do not have a current cybersecurity product and service line beyond consultants engaged to provide cybersecurity services. Cybersecurity companies may have an advantage over our business model in the future in that cybersecurity companies could leverage their cybersecurity offerings to also sell IT Business services and products that compete with our IT Business products and services.

Net revenues. Net revenues were $1,950,011 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $1,429,751 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $520,260 or 36.4%. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in our revenue from i) systems maintenance with revenues increasing from $1,189,083 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $1,319,069 for the three months ended June 30, 2018; ii) sales of hardware and consumables with revenue increasing from $219,736 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $562,689 for the three months ended June 30, 2018; and iii) sales of systems development and integration with revenues increasing from $20,932 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $68,253 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

The increase of gross profit was largely due to the increase in net revenues, offset by the increase in cost of services in this period, as compared with the same period of 2017.


25


 

 

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses include the costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities, office rental expenses, depreciation charge for fixed assets, and professional fees paid to third parties.

Net revenues. Net revenues were $4,116,452 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $3,084,313 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $1,032,139 or 33.5%. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in our revenues from i) systems maintenance with revenues increasing from $2,471,818 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $2,738,982 for the six months ended June 30, 2018; ii) systems development and integration with revenues increasing from $138,876 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $167,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2018; and iii) sales of hardware and consumables with revenue increasing from $473,619 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $1,210,378 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $1,086,585 or 26.4% of net revenues, as compared to $933,936 or 30.3% of net revenues, for the same period in 2017, an increase of $152,649 or 16.3%. The increase of gross profit was largely due to the increase in net revenues, offset by the increase in cost of services in this period, as compared with the same period of 2017.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $242,586 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was a change of $586,940 or 170.4% from net cash used in operating activities $344,354 for the same period of 2017. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was mainly attributable to the following:

 

1)A change of other receivables and prepayments, other payables and accrued liabilities, deferred income, and amounts due to related parties increased our operating cash balances by $249,856, $201,226, $604,463 and $ 256,706 respectively; and  

 

2)Net income of $296,277 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $279,957 for the same period in 2017; offset by:

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $20,165 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was a change of $48,488 from net cash provided by financing activities of $28,323 in the same period in 2017. The change in net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was attributable to the repayment of bank loan by $20,165 during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Future Financings

 

We believe that our cash on hand and cash flow from operations will meet our expected capital expenditure and working capital requirements for the next 12 months. However, we may in the future require additional cash resources due to changes in business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our production capacity, sales, marketing and branding activities or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in note 2 of the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and include the financial statements of the Company and all its wholly-owned subsidiaries that require consolidation. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31st. The following entities were consolidated as of June 30, 2018:

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting 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. The more significant areas requiring using management’s estimates and assumptions relate to the collectability of its receivables, the fair value and accounting treatment of financial instruments, the valuation of long-lived assets and valuation of deferred tax liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. In addition, different assumptions or circumstances could reasonably be expected to yield different results.

Plant and equipment

 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred. Major additions are capitalized. When assets 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 plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:

Revenue recognition

 

Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured.

 

The Company’s revenue is derived from three primary sources: (i) professional services for systems development and integration, including procurement of related hardware and software licenses on behalf of customers, if required; (ii) professional services for system maintenance normally for a period of one year; and (iii) sale of hardware and consumables during the service performed as stated above.

 

Multiple-deliverable arrangements

 

The Company derives revenue from fixed-price sale contracts with customers that may provide for the Company to procure hardware and software licenses with varied performance specifications specific to each customer and provide the technical services for systems development and integration of the hardware and software licenses. In instances where the contract price is inclusive of the technical services, the sale contracts include multiple deliverables. A multiple-element arrangement is separated into more than one unit of accounting if all of the following criteria are met:

 

The delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis; 

There is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item(s); and 

If the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company. 

 

The Company’s multiple-element contracts generally include customer-acceptance provisions which provide for the Company to carry out installation, test runs and performance tests at the Company’s cost until the systems as a whole can meet the performance specifications stated in the contracts. The delivered equipment and software licenses have no standalone value to the customer until they are installed, integrated and tested at the customer’s site by the Company in accordance with the performance specifications specific to each customer. In addition, under these multiple-element contracts, the Company has not sold the equipment and software licenses separately from the installation, integration and testing services, and hence there is no objective and reliable evidence of the fair value for each deliverable included in the arrangement. As a result, the equipment and the technical services for installation, integration and testing of the equipment are considered a single unit of accounting pursuant to ASC Subtopic 605-25, Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements. In addition, the arrangement generally includes customer acceptance criteria that cannot be tested before installation and integration at the customer’s site. Accordingly, revenue recognition is deferred until customer acceptance, indicated by an acceptance certificate signed off by the customer.

 

Revenues of maintenance services are recognized when the services are performed in accordance with the contract term.

 

Revenues of sale of software, if not bundled with other arrangements, are recognized when shipped and customer acceptance obtained, if all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Costs associated with revenues are recognized when incurred.

Revenues are recorded net of value-added taxes, sales discounts and returns. There were no sales returns during the six months period ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Billings in excess of revenues recognized are recorded as deferred revenue.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the reporting period as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

Under the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

The functional currency and reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. (“US$” or “$”). The functional currency of the Hong Kong subsidiaries is the Hong Kong Dollar. The functional currency of the PRC subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as quoted by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (“HKMA”) at the end of the period. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company is required to maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. 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 disclosures.

 

We conduct a periodic evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer, or officers performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our internal controls over financial reporting are deemed effective.

 

The active participation of the Audit Committee in the review and improvement in the disclosure controls and procedures was one action taken to endeavor to improve our disclosure controls and procedures. Further, the Company may seek the assistance of outside consultants with experience in internal disclosure controls and disclosures in fiscal year 2018 to enhance disclosure controls and procedures.
