HOTAPP BLOCKCHAIN INC.
Note 1. THE COMPANY HISTORY AND NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
HotApp
Blockchain Inc., formerly HotApp International, Inc., (the
“Company” or “Group”) was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on March 7, 2012 and established a fiscal
year end of December 31. The Company’s initial business plan
was to be a financial acquisition intermediary which would serve
buyers and sellers for companies that are in highly fragmented
industries. Our Board determined it was in the best interest of the
Company to expand our business plan. On October 15, 2014, through a
sale and purchase agreement, the Company acquired all the issued
and outstanding stock of HotApps International Pte Ltd
(“HIP”) from Singapore eDevelopment Limited
(“SeD”). SeD is presently our largest stockholder. HIP
owned certain intellectual property relating to instant messaging
for portable devices (referred to herein as the “HotApp
Application”).
The
HotApp Application is a cross-platform mobile application that
incorporates instant messaging and ecommerce. This application can
be used on any mobile platform (i.e. IOS Online or Android). The
HotApp Application offered messaging and calling services for
HotApp Application users (text, photo, audio); however, the
messaging and calling services we offered were terminated in
2017.
On
December 29, 2017, our Board approved a change of the
Company’s name from “HotApp International, Inc.”
to “HotApp Blockchain Inc.” to reflect the
Board’s determination that it was in the best interest of the
Company to expand its activities to include the development and
commercialization of blockchain-related technologies. One area we
are presently exploring is providing technology consulting for
security token offerings (“STO”). Such services, which
have not yet commenced commercially, would include STO white paper
development, technology design and web development. We intend to
outsource certain aspects of these projects to potential partners
we have identified. We have no plans to launch our own token
offering, but rather may develop technologies that could facilitate
such offerings by other companies.
We
believe that the increasing acceptance of distributed ledger
technologies by potential customers will benefit us. The growth of
network marketing throughout the world would impact our
technologies that target that industry. In this rapidly evolving
field, however, technology is advancing quickly and it is possible
that our competitors could create products that gain market
acceptance before our products.
In
2018, one of our main developments was a broadening of our scope of
planned operations into a digital transformation technology

Going Concern
These
financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America applicable for a
going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its
assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of
business. Since inception, the Company has incurred net losses of
$5,712,166 and has net working capital deficit of $1,262,501 at
June 30, 2020. Management has concluded that due to the conditions
described above, there is substantial doubt about the entities
ability to continue as a going concern through August 13, 2021. We
have evaluated the significance of the conditions in relation to
our ability to meet our obligations and believe that our current
cash balance along with our current operations will not provide
sufficient capital to continue operation through 2020. Our ability
to continue as a going concern is dependent upon achieving sales
growth, management of operating expenses and ability of the Company
to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay
its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they
come due, and upon profitable operations.
Our
majority shareholder has advised us not to depend solely on them
for financing. We have increased our efforts to raise additional
capital through equity or debt financings from other sources.
However, we cannot be certain that such capital (from our
shareholders or third parties) will be available to us or whether
such capital will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.
Any such financing likely would be dilutive to existing
stockholders and could result in significant financial operating
covenants that would negatively impact our business. If we are
unable to raise sufficient additional capital on acceptable terms,
we will have insufficient funds to operate our business or pursue
our planned growth.
These
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or
amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from
this uncertainty.
Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and additional information as contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. The other
information in these condensed consolidated financial statements is
unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflects all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
the periods covered. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature unless disclosed otherwise.
Basis of consolidation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include
the financial statements of HotApp Blockchain Inc. and its
subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been
eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of estimates
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 revenues, cost
and expenses in the financial statements and accompanying
notes.
Cash and cash equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash
equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2020 and
December 31, 2019.
Foreign currency risk
Because
of its foreign operations, the Company holds cash in non-US
dollars. As of June 30, 2020, cash and cash equivalents of the
Group includes, on an as converted basis to US dollars, $25,265 and
$22,611 in Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”) and Singapore
Dollars (“S$”), respectively. As of December 31, 2019,
cash and cash equivalents of the Group include, on an as converted
basis to US dollars, $32,283, and $23,131, in Hong Kong Dollars
(“HK$”), and Singapore Dollars (“S$”),
respectively.
Concentrations
Financial
instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentration of
credit risk consist primarily of cash. Although the cash at each
particular bank in the United States is insured up to $250,000 by
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Group exposes to
risk due to its concentration of cash in foreign countries. The
Group places its cash with financial institutions with high-credit
ratings and quality.
10
Fair
value
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and
accrued liabilities, and short-term borrowings, as reflected in the
balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term
maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial
assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company
are either recognized or disclosed in the financial statements
together with other information relevant for making a reasonable
assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit
risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and
financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise
only available information pertinent to fair value has been
disclosed. The Company classifies and discloses assets and
liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three
categories:
●
Level 1 - quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets and
liabilities;
●
Level 2 -
observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are
corroborated by market data; and
●
Level 3 -
significant unobservable inputs in which little or no market data
exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own
assumptions.
Revenue recognition
Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes
principles for reporting information about the nature, amount,
timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the
entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. Under
the new standard, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains
control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects
the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for
those goods or services. The Company adopted this new standard on
January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method to all
contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018 and the adoption did
not have a material effect on our financial statements but we
expanded our disclosures related to contracts with customers
below.
Revenue
is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or
services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for
those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company
satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of
the promised goods or services to its customers. Costs to obtain or
fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred when the amortization
period is less than one year.
Contract assets and contract liabilities
Based
on our contracts, we normally invoice customers once our
performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment
is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to
contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. Accounts receivable
are recorded when the right to consideration becomes
unconditional.
Income taxes
Current
income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the
relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when
temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed
consolidated financial statements. Net operating loss carry
forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates
applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a
valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is
more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax
assets and liabilities are individually classified as non-current
based on their characteristics.
The
impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return
is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to
be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain
income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a
50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income
taxes will be classified as a component of the provisions for
income taxes. The Group did not recognize any income tax due to
uncertain tax position or incur any interest and penalties related
to potential underpaid income tax expenses for the period ended
June 30, 2020 or 2019, respectively.
11
Foreign currency translation
Items
included in the financial statements of each entity in the group
are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment
in which the entity operates (“functional
currency”).
The
functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United
States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). The financial records of
the Company’s subsidiaries located in Singapore and Hong Kong
are maintained in their local currencies, the Singapore Dollar (S$)
and Hong Kong Dollar (HK$), which are also the functional
currencies of these entities.
Monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency are translated into the functional currency at
the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date.
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency
during the year are converted into functional currency at the
applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions
occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the
statement of operations.
The
Company’s entities with functional currency of Hong Kong
Dollar and Singapore Dollar, translate their operating results and
financial positions into the U.S. dollar, the Company’s
reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated using the
exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Revenues,
expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate
for the year. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative
translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of
comprehensive income (loss).
For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded
other comprehensive income from translation (loss) gain of
$(64,361) and $105,179 in the condensed consolidated financial
statements, respectively. For the three and six months ended June
30, 2019, the Company recorded other comprehensive income from
translation (loss) of $(13,206) and $(60,598) in the condensed
consolidated financial statements, respectively.
Comprehensive income (loss)
Comprehensive
income (loss) includes gains (losses) from foreign currency
translation adjustments. Comprehensive income (loss) is reported in
the condensed consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss.
Loss per share
Basic
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to
shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period.
As of
June 30, 2020, there are no potentially dilutive securities that
were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

Background and business
HotApp
Blockchain Inc., formerly HotApp International, Inc., (the
“Company” or “Group”) was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on March 7, 2012 and established a fiscal
year end of December 31. The Company’s initial business plan
was to be a financial acquisition intermediary which would serve
buyers and sellers for companies that are in highly fragmented
industries. Our Board determined it was in the best interest of the
Company to expand our business plan. On October 15, 2014, through a
sale and purchase agreement, the Company acquired all the issued
and outstanding stock of HotApps International Pte Ltd
(“HIP”) from Singapore eDevelopment Limited
(“SeD”). SeD is presently our largest stockholder. HIP
owned certain intellectual property relating to instant messaging
for portable devices (referred to herein as the “HotApp
Application”).
The
HotApp Application is a cross-platform mobile application that
incorporates instant messaging and ecommerce. This application can
be used on any mobile platform (i.e. IOS Online or Android). The
HotApp Application offered messaging and calling services for
HotApp Application users (text, photo, audio); however, the
messaging and calling services we offered were terminated in
2017.
On
December 29, 2017, our Board approved a change of the
Company’s name from “HotApp International, Inc.”
to “HotApp Blockchain Inc.” to reflect the
Board’s determination that it was in the best interest of the
Company to expand its activities to include the development and
commercialization of blockchain-related technologies. One area we
are presently exploring is providing technology consulting for
security token offerings (“STO”). Such services, which
have not yet commenced commercially, would include STO white paper
development, technology design and web development. We intend to
outsource certain aspects of these projects to potential partners
we have identified. We have no plans to launch our own token
offering, but rather may develop technologies that could facilitate
such offerings by other companies.
We
believe that the increasing acceptance of distributed ledger
technologies by potential customers will benefit us. The growth of
network marketing throughout the world would impact our
technologies that target that industry. In this rapidly evolving
field, however, technology is advancing quickly and it is possible
that our competitors could create products that gain market
acceptance before our products.
In
2018, one of our main developments was a broadening of our scope of
planned operations into a digital transformation technology
business. As a digital transformation technology business, we are
committed to enabling enterprises we work with to engage in a
digital transformation by providing consulting, implementation and
development services with various technologies, including instant
messaging, blockchain, e-commerce, social media and payment
solutions. We continue to be involved in mobile application product
development and other businesses, providing information technology
services to end-users, service providers and other commercial users
through multiple platforms.
We are
focused on serving business-to-business (B2B) needs in e-commerce,
collaboration and supply chains. We will help enterprises and
community users to transform their business model with digital
economy in a more effective manner. With our platform, users can
discover and build their own communities and create valuable
content. Enterprises can in turn enhance the user experience with
premium content, all of which are facilitated by the transactions
of every stakeholder via e-commerce.

Our
technology platform consists of instant messaging systems, social
media, e-commerce and payment systems, network marketing platforms
and e-real estate. We are focused on business-to-business solutions
such as enterprise messaging and workflow. We have successfully
implemented several strategic platform developments for clients,
including a mobile front-end solution for network marketing, a
hotel e-commerce platform for Asia and a real estate agent
management platform in China. We have also enhanced our
technological capability from mobile application development to
include blockchain architectural design, allowing mobile-friendly
front-end solutions to integrate with software platforms. Our main
digital assets at the present time are our applications. Our
emphasis will be on developing solutions and providing
services.
In
January 2017, we entered into a revenue-sharing agreement with
iGalen, a network marketing company selling health products (SeD,
our majority stockholder, is also a significant stockholder of
iGalen). Under the agreement, we customized a secure app for
iGalen’s communication and management system. The app enables
mobile friendly backend access for iGalen Inc. members, among other
functions. We are continuing to improve this secure app. In
particular, we intend to utilize blockchain supply logistics to
improve its functions (the original iGalen app did not utilize the
latest distributed ledger technology). Once the improvements to
this technology are completed, and initially utilized by iGalen, We
intend to then attempt to sell similar services to other companies
engaged in network marketing, as members of our management have a
particular experience offering services to that industry and we
believe our solutions are particularly suited to that
industry’s needs. This app can be modified to meet the
specific needs of any network marketing company. We believe that
these technologies will, among other benefits, make it easier for
network marketing companies to securely and effectively manage
their systems of compensation. Our current plan is to commence
sales of this technology in the first quarter of 2021.

The
Group has relied significantly on SeD, our majority stockholder, as
its principal sources of funding during the period. SeD has advised
us not to depend solely on it for financing. We have increased our
efforts to raise additional capital through equity or debt
financings from other sources. However, we cannot be certain that
such capital (from our stockholders or third parties) will be
available to us or whether such capital will be available on terms
that are acceptable to us. Any such, financing likely would be
dilutive to existing stockholders and could result in significant
financial operating covenants that would negatively impact our
business. If we are unable to raise sufficient additional capital
on acceptable terms, we will have insufficient funds to operate our
business or pursue our planned growth.
Trends in the Market and Our Opportunity
We
believe that digital and mobile technologies are reshaping the B2B
marketplace. We believe that this is not only a technological
revolution, but rather a paradigm shift in how B2B buyers consume
content, make informed buying decisions and engage with sales
people.
A
report by Statista on B2B e-commerce in 2017 has estimated $2.3
trillion B2C sales online while for B2B it is $7.7 trillion (a
234.78% difference). The reasons behind the dominance of B2B
are:
●
the rise of
self-service: 57% B2B customers use typical purchase process for
accomplishing proactive research online; and
●
the simplified
ordering experiences: The wholesale customers on B2B portals find
simplified interface compared to a number of “bells and
whistles” required on the B2C e-commerce sites.
Mobile
phones are increasingly playing a critical role in the B2B customer
journey. In fact, 50% of B2B search queries today are made on
smartphones. Research from the Boston Consulting Group projects
that this figure will grow to 70% by 2020.
17
Based
upon the above trends, we believe significant opportunities
exist for:
●
Enterprises
deploying mobile platform to effectively engage different
stakeholders.
●
User Experience in
Mobile Commerce is one of the critical success factor, HotApp has
been able to capitalize our experience in B2C and apply to B2B
world.
●
Enterprises to
increase usage of OTT Services, such as adoption of Enterprise
messaging Apps alongside with using of email, video and audio
conferencing, collaboration through cloud services, as a new medium
for different stakeholder engagement including customers, to
promote and market their products and services (Collaboration
Framework). HotApp’s approach in white labelling for the
enterprises will augment and fill this demand in the market. White
label refers to packaging HotApp solution under brand name of
clients with some content being customized only for
clients.
●
Industries such as
Network Marketing and Hospitality and Franchising businesses are
utilizing Mobile friendly solutions to reach out effectively to
their marketing network on a global basis.
●
Application of
Block Chain technology is no longer confined in the Financial
industry; enterprises are looking block chain as a way to address
product diversion, counterfeiting and track and trace solution.
These applications become a major building block of B2B
commerce.
Our Plan of Operations and Growth Strategy
We
believe that we have significant opportunities to further enhance
the value we deliver to our users. We intend to pursue the
following growth strategy:
●
continual focus in
business-to-business market;
●
identify strategic
partnership opportunities globally through “Powered by
HotApp” initiatives, enabling Mobile B2B commerce;
and
●
focus on network
marketing business support.
The COVID-19 pandemic or other adverse public health developments
could have a material and adverse effect on our business
operations, financial condition and results of
operations
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was first
identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, and has since spread to
a number of other countries, including the United States. The
COVID-19 pandemic’s far-reaching impact on the global economy
could negatively affect various aspects of our business. The extent
to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business will depend
on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be
predicted.
The
COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact our potential to expand our
business activities. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted, and may
continue to impact, the global supply of certain goods and services
in ways that may impact the sale of products to consumers that we,
or companies we may partner with, will attempt to make. The
COVID-19 pandemic may prevent us from pursuing otherwise attractive
opportunities.
In
addition, the COVID-19 pandemic could directly impact the ability
of our management and service providers to continue to work, and
our ability to conduct our operations in a prompt and efficient
manner. Our management has shifted to mostly working from home
since March 2020, but this has had minimal impact on our operations
to date. However our management’s ability to travel has been
significantly limited, and limitations on the mobility of our
management may slow down our ability to enter into new transactions
and expand existing projects.
To
date, we have not been required to expend significant resources
related to employee health and safety matters related to the
COVID-19 pandemic. We have a small management team, however, and
the inability of any significant number of our management team to
work due to illness or the illness of a family member could
adversely impact our operations.

20
We will
need to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings.
However, we cannot be certain that such capital (from SeD or third
party) will be available to us or whether such capital will be
available on terms that are acceptable to us. Any such financing
likely would be dilutive to existing shareholders and could result
in significant financial and operating covenants that would
negatively impact our business. If we are unable to raise
sufficient additional capital on acceptable terms, we will have
insufficient funds to operate our business and pursue our business
plan.
Consistent
with Section 144 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, it is our
current policy that all transactions between us and our officers,
directors and their affiliates will be entered into only if such
transactions are approved by a majority of the disinterested
directors, are approved by vote of the stockholders, or are fair to
us as corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or
ratified by the board. We will conduct an appropriate review of all
related party transactions on an ongoing basis.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our
discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations are based upon the Company’s financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. We believe that the estimates,
assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies
described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial
statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting
policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters,
actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying
the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical
accounting policies affect working capital account balances,
including the policies for revenue recognition, allowance for
doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and income taxes. These
policies require that we make estimates in the preparation of our
financial statements as of a given date.
Within
the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not
currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances
that would result in materially different amounts being
reported.
Revenue recognition
Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes
principles for reporting information about the nature, amount,
timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the
entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. Under
the new standard, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains
control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects
the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for
those goods or services. The Company adopted this new standard on
January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method to all
contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018 and the adoption did
not have a material effect on our financial statements but we
expanded our disclosures related to contracts with customers
below.
Revenue
is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or
services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for
those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company
satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of
the promised goods or services to its customers. Costs to obtain or
fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.
Income taxes
Current
income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the
relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when
temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed
consolidated financial statements. Net operating loss carry
forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates
applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a
valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is
more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax
assets and liabilities are individually classified as non-current
based on their characteristics.
The
impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return
is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to
be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain
income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a
50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income
taxes will be classified as a component of the provisions for
income taxes. The Group did not recognize any income tax due to
uncertain tax position or incur any interest and penalties related
to potential underpaid income tax expenses for the period ended
June 30, 2019 or 2018, respectively.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
June 30, 2020, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements.
21
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item
10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide
the information required by this Item.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of our Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by management, with the
participation of our Acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) as of
June 30, 2020. Disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to management, including the Acting Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
During evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as
of June 30, 2020 conducted as
part of our preparation of our interim financial statements,
management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the
design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures and
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective. Management determined that at June 30, 2020, we had a material weakness that relates to
the relatively small number of employees who have bookkeeping and
accounting functions and therefore prevents us from segregating
duties within our internal control system.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the financial statements included in this quarterly report. The
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and reflect management’s judgment and estimates
concerning effects of events and transactions that are accounted
for or disclosed.
Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that pertain to our ability to record, process,
summarize and report reliable data. Management recognizes that
there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal
control over financial reporting, including the possibility of
human error and the circumvention or overriding of internal
control. Accordingly, even effective internal control over
financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with
respect to financial statement presentation. Further, because of
changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting may vary over time.
In order to ensure that our internal control over financial
reporting is effective, management regularly assesses controls and
did so most recently for its financial reporting as of June
30, 2020. This assessment was based on
criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting
described in the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway
Commission. Based on this assessment, management has concluded
that, as of June 30, 2020, we
had a material weakness that relates to the relatively small number
of employees who have bookkeeping and accounting functions and
therefore prevents us from segregating duties within our internal
control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness
because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution
of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to
perform timely and effective reviews. The Company also noted the
internal staff has limited US GAAP and SEC Reporting
experience.
This quarterly report filed on Form 10-Q does not include an
attestation report of the Company’s registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation
by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to
provide only management’s report in this quarterly
report.
Changes in the Company’s Internal Controls over Financial
Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal
quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting.
22
OTHER
INFORMATION
We are not a party to any legal proceedings. Management is not
aware of any legal proceedings proposed to be initiated against us.
However, from time to time, we may become subject to claims and
litigation generally associated with any business venture operating
in the ordinary course.
Not applicable to a “smaller reporting company” as
defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K.
None.
