NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

ZZLL Information Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 9, 2005 under the name of JML Holdings, Inc. The Company merged with Baoshinn International Express, Inc. on September 30, 2006 and changed its name to Green Standard Technologies, Inc. on June 17, 2005. On May 27, 2016, the Company changed its name to ZZLL Information Technology, Inc.

 

On April 23, 2013, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Syndicore Asia Limited (“SAL”), under the laws of Hong Kong. SAL has limited operating activities since incorporation except for holding the ownership interest in Hunan Syndicore Asia Limited (“HSAL”), an e-Commerce company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

 

On August 18, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Network Service Management Limited (“NSML”) to form Z-Line International E-Commerce Company Limited (“Z-Line”) under the laws of Hong Kong. The Company owned 55% and NSML owned 45% of the equity interests of Z-Line. On October 8, 2019, the Company acquired the remaining 45% equity interests of Z-Line from NSML and Z Line became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Z-Line was formed to become an e-Commerce company providing consumer-to-consumer, business-to-consumer and business-to-business-sales services via web portals. Z-Line has had limited operating activities since incorporation.

 

On May 23, 2020, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Shenzhen Ezekiel Technology Co. Limited (“Ezekiel”), under the laws of the PRC. Ezekiel’s operating activities are still limited.

 

Description of the Business

 

The Company currently operates its business through its subsidiary HSAL. HSAL is an e-Commerce company operating through its self-developed online application “Bibishengjia”. Bibishengjia is a shopping search engine that concurrently searches many shopping sites, primarily based in China, including major shopping sites such as Taobao.com, Tmall.com, JD.com and Pinduoduo.com, and helps customers meet their one-stop online shopping needs. Bibishengjia also runs its own online shopping platforms - Bibi Mall and Lianlian Nongyuan Agricultural Products Store. Bibishengjia was launched on August 18, 2019 and is currently available for download at the Apple APP Store and other major mobile download stores.

 

On September 26, 2019, the Company, through SAL, entered into an agreement (the “Pretech Agreement”) with Pretech International Co., Limited (“Pretech”), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (“HK”).  Pretech is a software, hardware and digital company that also specializes in the development and manufacture of consumer electronics. Under the terms of the Pretch Agreement, Pretech agreed to act as SAL’s sales agent in order to make sales through the use of Bibishengjia.  Pretech paid $1 million for the use of Bibishengjia, and the Company agreed to pay Pretech 5% of all sales made in the PRC and HK through the use of Bibishengjia.  The term of the Pretech Agreement is for 24 months from the date the Pretech Agreement was entered into and is extendable for another 24 months, unless a party decides to cancel at the end of the initial 24-month period.

 

NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company, which had an accumulated deficit of $2,477,620 and a working capital deficit of $893,983 as of September 30, 2020, incurred losses from inception until December 31, 2019. The Company generated comprehensive net income of $ for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts and realization of the portion of current liabilities into revenue shown in the accompanying balance sheets are dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn are dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional financing and to succeed in its future operations. The Company will need additional cash resources to operate during the upcoming 12 months, and the continuation of the Company may be dependent upon the continuing financial support of investors, directors and/or shareholders of the Company. However, there is no assurance that efforts to raise equity or debt will be successful in raising sufficient funds to assure the eventual profitability of the Company. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These accompanying 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 be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management plans to support the Company in operation and to maintain its business strategy to raise funds through public and private offerings and to rely on officers and directors to perform essential functions with minimal compensation. If we do not raise all of the money we need from such offerings, we will have to find alternative sources including, loans from our officers, directors or others. Management has actively taken steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which they believe will allow the Company to continue its operations for the next 12 months.

 

NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation and consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting, and in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this report reflect all adjustments that are normal and recurring in nature and considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements, footnote disclosures and other information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the years are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal. The Company has limited operations and is considered to be in the development stage under ASC 915-15.

Use of estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, deferred income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. In respect of accounts receivable, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without requiring collateral or other security. In order to minimize the credit risk, the management of the Company has delegated a team responsibility for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. Further, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Company consider that the Company’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less. The Company currently maintains bank accounts in HK and the PRC only.

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. The Company extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible. The Company does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable. Pursuant to the Company’s credit policy exposure to credit risk is monitored on an on-going-basis where management performs credit evaluations on all customers that are sold services or products on account. The Company had not experienced any bad debts during the six-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Plant and equipment

 

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including replacement of minor items, are charged to expense; major additions to physical properties are capitalized.

 

Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates:

 

Furniture and fixtures   20% - 50 %
Office equipment     20 %

 

Plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated.

 

7

 

 

Income taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Comprehensive income(loss)

 

The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 220 (“ASC 220”) “Comprehensive income” (formerly known as SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”), which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments of the Company.

 

Leases

 

Our executive offices are located in the Carnival Commercial Building, 18 Java Road, North Point Hong Kong. Our current lease is from August 28, 2019 to August 27, 2021 at a monthly charge of HK$8,000/month (approximately US$1,040/month). We have successfully renewed our lease in the past and do not expect any difficulty in renewing it again.

 

Our subsidiary, Hunan Syndicore Asia Limited, leases 682.5 square meters office space at Tower E1, Li Gu Yu Yuan, No. 27 Wen Xuan Road, Chang Sha, Hunan Province, China at a monthly charge of RMB 22,522.83/month (approximately $3,217.55/month). The term of the lease is from May 15, 2019 to May 14, 2024. The lease may be renewed upon three months prior written notice.

 

Our subsidiary, Shenzhen Ezekiel Technology Co. Limited leases 296.93 square meters office space at Xin Li Kang Tower, Suite 22C, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China at a monthly charge of RMB 36,440.55/month (approximately $5,205/month). The term of the lease is from April 1, 2020 to April 9, 2023. The lease may be renewed upon six months prior written notice.

 

Under Topic 842, operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of facilities with remaining lease terms of approximately two to four years. The Company does not have the option to terminate the leases early.

 

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of Topic 842, the Company has combined the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and ROU assets.

 

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. The Company used the incremental borrowing rate on December 29, 2018 of 5.5% for all leases that commenced prior to that date.

Foreign currency translation

 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States Dollars (“US$”). The functional currencies of the Company’s subsidiary operating business unit based in Hong Kong and PRC are the Hong Kong Dollar (“HK$”) and Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”) respectively. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of operations. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translated the assets and liabilities into US$ using the rate of exchange prevailing at the applicable balance sheet date and the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded in shareholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The rate used in translation of Hong Kong dollars to US$ is a ratio of US$1.00=HK$7.75, a fixed exchange rate maintained between Hong Kong and United States derived from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority pegging HK$ and US$ monetary policy.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

 

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires that expected credit losses relating to financial assets be measured on an amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 limits the amount of credit losses to be recognized for available-for-sale debt securities to the amount by which carrying value exceeds fair value and also requires the reversal of previously recognized credit losses if fair value increases. Also, for available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, the standard eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairments and requires allowances to be recorded instead of reducing the amortized cost of the investment. The adoption by the Company of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2020 are presented under the new standard, while comparative periods presented are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy.

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. In July 2018, the FASB issued amendments in ASU 2018-11, which provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method, by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption, and to not apply the new guidance in the comparative periods they present in the financial statements. We adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition approach and elected to use the effective date as the date of initial application. As a result of the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, we recorded operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets of $3.26 million and operating lease liabilities of $3.25 million. The ROU assets include adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments. The adoption did not impact the Company’s beginning retained earnings, or its prior year consolidated statements of income and statements of cash flows.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), amending existing guidance on the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope. The guidance introduces an expected loss model for estimating credit losses, replacing the incurred loss model. The new guidance also changes the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, requiring the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses (and subsequent recoveries). The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards with future effective dates are either not applicable or not significant to the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

 

NOTE 4 OTHER PAYABLES AND ACCRUED LIABILITIES

 

The other payables and accrued liabilities were comprised of the following:

 

    September 30,
2020 		    December 31,

NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES

 

The Company and its subsidiaries file separate income tax returns. The Company was incorporated in the United States and is subject to United States federal and state income taxes. The Company did not generate taxable income in the United States for nine months periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

 

Two subsidiaries were incorporated in Hong Kong and are subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at 16.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Provision for Hong Kong profits tax has not been made for the periods presented as the subsidiaries had no assessable profits during the periods. One subsidiary is incorporated in the PRC and is subject to PRC Income Tax at 25% for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.  Provision for PRC Income Tax has not been made for the year presented as the subsidiary had no assessable profits during the year.

 

Deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. For the nine months periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has tax loss carrying-forwards, which does not recognize deferred tax assets as it is not probable that future taxable profits against which the losses can be utilized will be available in the relevant tax jurisdiction and entity.

NOTE 7 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures provides a single definition of fair value, a hierarchy for measuring fair value and expanded disclosures about fair value adjustments. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. Inputs may be based on independent market data (“observable inputs”) or they may be internally developed (“unobservable inputs”). These inputs are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes. The level of a value determined for an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not considered to be active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means; and
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability, including the Trust’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments

 

There were no transfers between Level 1 and other Levels in the Nine Months ended September 30, 2020 or for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Warranty liabilities are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. They are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.

 

NOTE 8 SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 280 (ASC 280) “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in financial statements. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making Company, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

 

For the three and Nine Months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company is regarded as a single operating segment, being engaged in the online retail sales and website development business. This principal activity and geographical market are substantially based in Hong Kong and the PRC; accordingly, no operating or geographical segment information is presented.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERTIONS

 

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying financial statements. The discussion and analysis which follows in this Quarterly Report and in other reports and documents and in oral statements made on our behalf by our management and others may contain trend analysis and other forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial results. These include statements regarding our earnings, projected growth and forecasts, and similar matters which are not historical facts. We remind stockholders that forward-looking statements are merely predictions and therefore are inherently subject to uncertainties and other factors which could cause the actual future events or results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These uncertainties and other factors include, among other things, the impact of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, business conditions affecting our business and general economic conditions; our ability to generate sufficient revenues to reach profitable operations; and our need to obtain additional financing. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report and made elsewhere by or on our behalf should be considered in light of these factors.

  

We are a development stage company. We currently operate our business through our subsidiary, Hunan Syndicore Asia Limited (“HSAL”). HSAL is an e-Commerce company operating through its self-developed online application “Bibishengjia”. Bibishengjia is a shopping search engine that concurrently searches many shopping sites, preliminarily based in China, including major shopping sites such as Taobao.com, Tmall.com, JD.com and Pinduoduo.com, and helps customers meet their one-stop online shopping needs. Bibishengjia also runs its own online shopping platforms - Bibi Mall and Lianlian Nongyuan Agricultural Products Store. Bibishengjia was launched on August 18, 2019 and is currently available for download at the Apple APP Store and other major mobile download stores.

 

On September 26, 2019, the Company, through SAL, entered into an Agreement (the “Pretech Agreement”) with Pretech International Co., Limited (“Pretech”), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong (“HK”).  Pretech is a software, hardware and digital company that also specializes in the development and manufacture of consumer electronics. Under the terms of the Pretch Agreement, Pretech agreed to act as SAL’s sales agent in order to make sales through the use of Bibishengjia.  Pretech paid $1 million for the use of Bibishengjia and the Company agreed to pay Pretech 5% of all sales made in the PRC and HK through the use of Bibishengjia.  The term of the Pretch Agreement is for 24 months from the date the Pretech Agreement was entered into and is extendable for another 24 months, unless a party decides to cancel at the end of the initial 24-month period.

  

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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 period. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Specific risks for these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.

 

Revenue Recognition. We are an e-Commerce company whose business is based on the use of Bibishengjia, a self-developed online application. Bibishengjia is a shopping search engine that searches many shopping sites, primarily based in China, at once, including major shopping sites such as Taobao.com, Tmall.com, JD.com and Pinduoduo.com, and helps customers meet their one-stop online shopping needs. Bibishengjia also runs its own online shopping platforms Bibi Mall and Lianlian Nongyuan Agricultural Products Store. Bibishengjia was launched on August 18, 2019 and is currently available for download at the Apple APP Store and other major mobile download stores.

 

Known or expected pricing or revenue adjustments, such as trade discounts, rebates or returns, are estimated at the time of sale. We base these estimates of expected amounts principally on historical utilization and redemption rates. Estimates that affect revenue, such as trade incentives and product returns, are monitored and adjusted each period until the incentives or product returns are realized.

 

14

 

  

Cost of sales. Cost of sales includes the cost of direct labor, merchandise, materials and installation charges on the service being provided.

 

Selling expenses. Selling expenses include store-related expense, other than store occupancy costs, as well as advertising, depreciation and amortization, and certain expenses associated with operating the Company’s corporate headquarters

 

Accounts Receivable. The majority of our accounts receivable are due from distributors (domestic and international) and retailers. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customers’ financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are most often due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. We determine whether an allowance is necessary by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, our previous loss history and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. We write off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the bad debt expense account. We do not accrue interest on accounts receivable past due.

 

Plant and equipment. Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including replacement of minor items, are charged to expense; major additions to physical properties are capitalized. Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates.

 

Income Taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

Our company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our balance sheets or statements of operations.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  The amendments in this Update require a new topic to be added (Topic 326) to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and removes the thresholds that entities apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, trade receivables, reinsurance recoverables, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, and held-to-maturity securities.  Under current U.S. GAAP, entities generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred.  The guidance under ASU 2016-13 will remove all current recognition thresholds and will require entities under the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that an entity expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life.  The new CECL model is based upon expected losses rather than incurred losses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We are currently evaluating the effect that this new guidance will have on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Recent Developments

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, layoffs, defaults and other significant economic impacts, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The current severity of the pandemic and the uncertainty regarding the length of its effects could have negative consequences for our company.

 

Most of our administrative functions are being performed remotely. A small crew maintains the office for those functions that cannot be handled remotely. Our ability to collect money, pay bills, handle customer and consumer communications, schedule production, and order ingredients necessary for our production has not been impacted.

 

To date, the pandemic has had minimal impact on our sales. The majority of our sales are made online. We experienced a slight decline in sales at the beginning of the imposition of restrictions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. To date we have not experienced a significant change in the timeliness of payments of our invoices and our cash position remains stable with approximately $914,238 of cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020.

Net revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $278,988, a decrease of $12,2695 from net revenue of $291,257 for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Our cost of sales decreased to $ 29,888 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an decrease of $27,786, or 48%, from cost of sales of $57,674 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease is attributable to a decrease in the operating costs of HSAL.

 

Our gross profit increased by $15,517 to $249,100 the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $233,583 in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our gross profit percentage was 89% the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 80% for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $149,438, or 263%, to $206,249 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, from $56,811 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is mainly attributable to HSAL’s increased rent expenses and increased employee salaries, and legal and rent costs relating to the establishment of Ezekiel. We anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue at the same level for the remainder of 2020.

 

As a result of the foregoing our income from operations increased to $42,851 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $176,772 for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

In the three months ended September 30, 2020 we incurred interest expenses of $14,485 compared to interest income of $2 in three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

We incurred income taxes of $298 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 while we did not incur any income taxes in the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

As a result we recorded net income of $28,068 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to a net loss of $179,333 for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $482,143, an increase of $122,805, or 34%, from net revenue of $359,325 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is attributable to an increase in revenues attributable to the operations of HSAL.

 

Our cost of sales increased to $198,021 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $104,690, or 112%, from cost of sales of $93,331 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increased costs are attributable to increased direct sales costs, platform maintenance costs and APP membership development costs relating to Bibishengjia HSAL started to operate “Bibishengjia” in August 2019, which began to gain popularity in 2020.

 

Our gross profit increased by $18,115 to $284,109 the nine months ended September 30, 2020 from $265,994 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Our gross profit percentage was 58% the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $211,906, or 113%, to $398,634 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, from $186,728 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is mainly attributable to HSAL’s increased rent expenses and increased employee salaries and Ezekiel’s rent expenses.

 

Our loss from operations increased to $114,525 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to income from operations of $79,266 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

We had total non-operating income of $71,676 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to total non-operating income of $229,928 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in non-operating income was attributable to the decline in the value of derivative warrants included as a liability during this period. As the warrant value decreases the Company records unrecognized gains in its statement of operations.

 

As a result of the foregoing r recorded a net loss of $57,670 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to net income of $310,585 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2020, we had $914,238 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $893,983 compared with $873,192 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $779,155 at December 31, 2019. Our accumulated deficit at September 30, 2020 was $2,477,620.

 

Our auditors’ report issued in connection with our December 31, 2019 financial statements expressed an opinion that due to recurring losses from operations and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our current cash level raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern substantially beyond the end of 2021. The Company may need additional cash resources to operate during the upcoming 12 months, and the continuation of the Company may be dependent upon the continuing financial support of investors, directors and/or shareholders of the Company. However, there is no assurance that equity or debt offerings will be successful in raising sufficient funds to assure the eventual profitability of the Company. The accompanying 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 be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If we do not reach operating profitability or obtain additional capital by such time, we may no longer be able to continue as a going concern and may cease operation or seek bankruptcy protection.

 

To date the Company has funded its operations by advances from related parties of the Company which are interest free, unsecured, and have no fixed repayment terms. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had received net advances of $812,081 and $912,493 from shareholders and related parties for operating expenses. These advances bear no interest, no collateral and have no repayment term. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, the cash provided was mainly from advance payments paid under the Pretech Agreement and cash generated from the operation of Bibishengjia.

 

Management has continued to support the Company’s operations and the Company has relied on its officers and directors to perform essential functions with minimal compensation. If the Company is unable to raise the funds it requires from third parties it will have to find alternative sources, such as loans from our officers and directors.

Management has actively taken steps to revise its operating and financial requirements and believes that its current and available capital resources will allow the Company to continue its operations throughout this fiscal year.

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:

 

    Nine Months
Ended September 30,
2020 		    Nine Months
Ended September 30,
2019 		 
Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities   $ 351,401     $ 809,754  
Net cash used for investing activities     (167,236 )     (6,609 )
Net cash provided by (used for) financing activities     (136,005 )     (45,348 )
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents   $ 48,160 )   $ 757,797  

 

Net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $351,401 compared to net cash used in operation of $809,754 for the same period in 2019. During the 2020 period, net cash was mainly provided by advances from Bibishengjia end users.

 

Net cash used for investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $167,236 compared to net cash used by investing activities of $6,609 for the same period in 2019. The cash used for investing activities relate to the purchase of fixed assets during both periods.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $136,005 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $45,348 for the same period in 2019. This change was primarily due to advances of $177,764, from related parties.

 

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents on hand at September 30, 2020 and the cash flows expected from operations, will be sufficient to support our operating and capital requirements during the next twelve months.

 

Inflation and Seasonality

 

We do not believe that our operating results have been materially affected by inflation during the preceding two years. There can be no assurance, however, that our operating results will not be affected by inflation in the future. Our business is subject to minimal seasonal variations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

 

As at September 30, 2020, we were not a party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

 

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of September 30, 2020, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated 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 (the “Exchange Act”)as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, determined that our internal controls over disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and were inadequate to insure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the commission rules and forms 

 

Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls.

 

As provided in Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act, Disclosure Controls are defined as meaning controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of insuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, designed and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure Controls include, within the definition under the Exchange Act, and without limitation, controls and procedures to insure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized; (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020 using the May 2013 updated criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020, we identified material weakness as follows: (1) lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function, and (2) lack of control procedures that include multiple levels of review.  To date, we have been unable to remediate these weaknesses. The remediation initiatives planned by the Company include hiring more personnel with public company experience and engaging an outside consultant with considerable public company reporting experience and breadth of knowledge of US GAAP to provide more training in connection with the preparation and review of our financial statements.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

The Company is currently not a party to any material pending legal proceedings.

 

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

 

Our executive offices and those of our subsidiary Z-Line are located in Hong Kong and may be affected by recent political, social and economic conditions in Hong Kong.

 

Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the PRC and the basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong provide Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”. However, there is no assurance that there will not be any changes in the economic, political and legal environment in Hong Kong in the future. The Hong Kong protests that begun in 2019 are ongoing g. These protests were triggered by the introduction of the Fugitive Offenders amendment bill by the Hong Kong government. If enacted, the bill would have allowed the extradition of criminal fugitives who are wanted in territories with which Hong Kong does not currently have extradition agreements, including mainland China. This led to concerns that the bill would subject Hong Kong residents and visitors to the jurisdiction and legal system of mainland China, thereby undermining the region’s autonomy and people’s civil liberties. Various sectors of the Hong Kong economy have been adversely affected as the protests turned increasingly violent. Most notably, the airline, retail, and real estate sectors have seen their sales decline. Under the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong is exclusively in charge of its internal affairs and external relations, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. We cannot assure that the ongoing protests will not affect Hong Kong’s status as a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and thereby affecting its current relations with foreign states and regions.

 

Recently, in response to national security legislation adopted by the Chinese government, the U.S. Secretary of State certified to the U.S. Congress on May 27, 2020 that Hong Kong no longer maintains a sufficient degree of autonomy from China to warrant special treatment by the U.S. While such certification, and subsequent statements made by the U.S. President relating to Hong Kong’s status, do not have an immediate impact on Hong Kong for trade or other purposes, these recent actions represent an escalation in political and trade tensions involving the U.S, China and Hong Kong. It is possible that the U.S. government may take future measures to impose stricter export controls or duties on shipments made to Hong Kong, add additional parties to the Entity List, or reduce preferential treatment currently accorded to Hong Kong, which could harm our business, increase the cost of conducting our operations in Hong Kong or result in retaliatory actions against U.S. interests. While we have not been materially impacted by these problems to date, continued deterioration in political, social or economic conditions in Hong Kong or future unforeseen problems, including health pandemics, could result in business interruptions, substantially delayed or lost sales or increased expenses that cannot be passed on to customers, any of which could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
