PART I

Item 1. Business

Company Overview

AB International Group Corp. (the "Company", "we" or "us") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 29, 2013 ("Inception") and originally intended to purchase used cars in the United States and sell them in Krygyzstan. The Company's fiscal year end is August 31.

On January 22, 2016, our former sole officer, who owned 83% of our outstanding common shares, sold all of his common shares to unrelated investor Jianli Deng. After the stock sale, we modified our business to focus on the creation of a mobile app marketing engine. The app was designed for movie trailer promotions and we planned to generate a subscriber base of smartphone users primarily through pre-installed app smartphone makers, online app stores, WeChat official accounts, Weibo and other social network media outlets and sell prepaid cards or coins to movie distributors or other video advertisers in China. We created the app “Amoney” for the Android smartphone platform to develop a WeChat micro-shop that was designed to display and deliver a variety of information and links for download or online watch prices in the China market.

For the year ended August 31, 2016, we generated revenue of $28,200 from one company that paid us to post their movie trailers on our smartphone app for a one month period. On November 16, 2017, however, we sold the mobile application (Amoney) because we believed there were too many competitors in the market. We remained focused on the acquisition and development of intellectual property.

On June 1, 2017, we entered into a Patent License Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which Guangzhou Shengshituhua Film and Television Company Limited, a company incorporated in China (“Licensor”), granted to us a worldwide license to a video synthesis and release system for mobile communications equipment (the “Technology”). The Technology is the subject of a utility model patent in the People’s Republic of China. Under the Agreement, we are able to utilize, improve upon, and sub-license the technology for an initial period of 5 years, subject to a right to renew for an additional 5 year term. We were obligated to pay the Licensor $500,000 within 30 days of the date of the Agreement and a royalty fee in the amount of 20% of any proceeds resulting from our utilization of the Technology, whether in the form of sub-licensing fees or sales of licensed products. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chiyuan Deng and former Chief Executive Officer, Jianli Deng, jointly own and control Licensor. On October 10, 2017, we completed the payment of all amounts due under the Agreement.

Our License to the Technology generates revenue through sub-license monthly fees from a smartphone app on Android devices. This app was already existing and licensed at the time we acquired the Technology.

We are in the process of using the underlying Technology to create a smartphone video mix app and social video sharing platform. We are developing this new apps for use with iOS and Android smartphones and we expect to launch the app sometime in the beginning of next year. We expect that this new app will transform the way users create and share art talent and fun. The app is expected to take advantage of the core design philosophy of “My film anyone, anywhere, anytime be together.” Similar and competitive innovative video and community apps have been activated on over 2 million unique devices in China as of December 31, 2017 and precipitated the duet video synthesis phenomenon in China. Today, the word “Meitu” is used as a verb for “enhancing images”, amd TikTok is a short video sharing platform. Our Videomix app, yet to be released, is expected to be used as a verb for “enhancing videos synthesis production,” but also as a brand that represents talent, trendiness, youthfulness and funniness.

To better meet our users’ demands for higher quality selfies, we are also planning to launch the Patent (Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system) License Program. The program markets our Technology to big brand smartphones makers to highlight our patent apps integrate proprietary video synthesis production and distribution system processing algorithms and specialized video processors, which generate high-quality selfies duet video synthesis. We have been in discussion with these smartphone makers about our initiatives and selling points in an effort to increase sales. Revenue from this program will be generated by license fees for each smartphone with this video synthesis production and distribution system function.

Fundamentally, we view ourselves as a mobile Internet company with our core asset being our massive, active and fast-growing user base through registered patent--Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system.

We believe that the VideoMix app will become an important part of users’ social lives online. We believe the provision of relevant products, content and services will help us monetize our user base and enable us to create value for our users at the same time. We intend to continue to drive our near-term revenue growth through patent--Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system license fees from smartphone makers, since China’s large smartphone market continues to present significant opportunities. Our goal is that at least 10% of smartphones in China will eventually contain this integrated patent function. If we meet this goal, which would equate to around 40 million smartphones, which in turn result in about 200 million RMB in revenue generated from patent license fees. As we have not yet commercialized the app for sale, we do not expect to achieve any revenues until we launch the app and make it available under our program, and we can provide no assurances that we will be able to achieve commercialization or our revenue goals for the app. According to preliminary data of the IDC Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker, the Chinese smartphone market shipped 105 million units during the second quarter of 2018. Following our successful monetization through smartphones, we have also identified three other major opportunities for monetization, including content use fees, advertising fees, KOL agency fees.

On March 10, 2018, we acquired intellectual property from Aura Blocks Ltd. for $200,000. On March 19, 2018, we entered into consulting agreements (the “Consulting Agreements”) with four consultants (the “Consultants”). The Consulting Agreements have terms or either two or three years. Under the Consulting Agreements the Consultants will provide services to us in Hong Kong and China related to blockchain technology and krypto kiosks. In consideration for the services provided by the Consultants, we have issued the Consultants a total of 1,100,000 shares of our common stock.

On March 21, 2018, we acquired the intellectual assets of KryptoKiosk Limited, a crypto currencies kiosk company which has licenses and patent in Australia, which enable the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs that allow buying and selling of Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethererum all in one terminal. The Company plans to generate revenue through sub-licensing fees for the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs. Through the foregoing the Company proposes to bring a physical aspect to something that is otherwise very abstract to people. We also issued to JPC Fintech Limited 2,400,000 common shares with a market value of $72,000 exchange of KryptoKiosk Limited’s assets consist mostly of intellectual property, including, but not limited to, certain domain names, copyrights, trademarks, and patents pending, but also include contract rights and personal property.

We planned to generate revenue through sub-licensing fees for the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs. Through the foregoing, we proposed to bring a physical aspect to something that is otherwise very abstract to people. We planned to invest in machines and sell sub-licenses in the Asia Pacific region with future world-wide expansion. We had promoted and marketed the ATM business for 6 months or until around August 2018, because the BTC and cryptocurrencies price went down.. The IP, however, was never transferred to us, We have repeatedly requested from Messrs. Grounds, Vickery and Shakespare access to the domains and websites and other information concerning the IP assets. As of the date of this annual report, no such information has been provided. In addition, the IP including domain names were transferred to others while Messrs. Vickery and Shakespare were officers of our company. As a result, we ceased promotions and marketing on the ATM business and relations cryptocurrencies business in September 2018. On November 21, 2018, we had sent the final notice that JPC Fintech has materially breached the agreement. We requested that JPC Fintech Ltd. return its stock certificate received in the transaction to our transfer agent for immediate cancellation.  We have not yet received the certificate for termination .

On May 9, 2018, we entered into an investor agreement with iCrowdU Inc. We agreed to purchase 228,013 shares of iCrowdU Inc. at a share price of $1.228 for total consideration of $280,000. iCrowdU Inc. offers an online platform and mobile app for crowd funding services targeting the global crowd funding market.

Furthermore, it was agreed to exchange 2,000,000 shares of our common stock for 2,000,000 shares of common stock in iCrowdU Inc. This share exchange was made as collateral in advance of an investment of $1,935,000 by us into iCrowdU Inc., which never occurred.

On or about May 9, 2018, we entered into consultancy agreements with Alexander Holtermann, Ian Wright and Luis Hadic. Each of Messrs. Holtermann, Wright and Hadic received 200,000 shares of our common stock under the consultancy agreements.

On or about July 26, 2018, we entered into an investment agreement with iCrowdU Inc. for the purchase of 40% of iCrowdU in exchange for 8,000,000 shares of our common stock that would be split between Messrs. Holtermann and Wright at 70% and 30%, respectively, and an investment of $10,000,000. The 8,000,000 shares were cut but not delivered to Messrs. Holtermann and Wright and no part of the $10,000,000 was invested by us into iCrowdU Inc.

On or about July 31, 2018, we entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Holtermann and Wright for the consideration provided for under the agreements.

On October 25, 2018, the above parties entered into an Agreement for Termination and Release that terminated all outstanding agreements among the parties and released each party from the other. We agreed to settle outstanding expenses and costs incurred by iCrowdU Inc., in the sum of $6,444.90. In addition, all parties agreed to return any shares received from the above agreements, save we shall be permitted to retain the 228,013 shares purchased in iCrowdU Inc. Finally, we agreed to amend our Current Report on Form 8-K concerning certain disclosures made therein. We amended the report as per the agreement.

Competition

Our main business is sub-license a patent of video synthesis and release system for mobile communications equipment to smartphone apps and smartphone makers. We are in the process of using the underlying technology to create a smartphone video mix app as well as the social video sharing platform. The main competitors are short video apps, we are going to discuss become a cooperation partner of them which generated sub-license patent of video synthesis and release system monthly fee from them.

Employees

We currently have 8 employees.  

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. These risk factors and other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K should be carefully considered in evaluating our business. They are provided for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. It is not possible to identify or predict all such factors and, therefore, the following should not be considered to be a complete statement of all the uncertainties we face.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Business

Because we have a limited operating history, you may not be able to accurately evaluate our operations.

We are a startup company. We have had limited operations to date and have generated limited revenues. Therefore, we have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate the merits of investing in our company. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises.  The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the operations that we plan to undertake.  These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to the ability to generate sufficient cash flow to operate our business, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. We expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future.  We recognize that if the effectiveness of our business plan is not forthcoming, we will not be able to continue business operations.   There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and it is doubtful that we will continue to generate operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations.  If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

Our investors may lose their entire investment because our financial status creates a doubt whether we will continue as a going concern.

Our auditors, in their opinion provided for our fiscal year end August 31, 2018 audited financial statements and notes thereto, have stated that currently we do not have sufficient cash nor do we have a significant source of revenues to cover our operational costs and allow us to continue as a going concern. We seek to raise operating capital to implement our business plan in an offering of our common stock.  Our plan specifies a minimum amount of $500,000 in additional operating capital to operate for the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this capital in a secondary offering of securities.

We are dependent on outside financing for continuation of our operations.

Because we have generated limited revenues and currently operate at a loss, we are completely dependent on the continued availability of financing in order to continue our business. There can be no assurance that financing sufficient to enable us to continue our operations will be available to us in the future.

Risks Related to Legal Uncertainty

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and new SEC regulations, are creating uncertainty for companies such as ours. These new or changed laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. As a result, we intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, our reputation may be harmed.

If we fail to comply with the new rules under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act related to accounting controls and procedures, or if material weaknesses or other deficiencies are discovered in our internal accounting procedures, our stock price could decline significantly.

We are exposed to potential risks from legislation requiring companies to evaluate internal controls under Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. As a smaller reporting company and emerging growth company, we will not be required to provide a report on the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting until our second annual report, and we will be exempt from auditor attestation requirements concerning any such report so long as we are an emerging growth company or a smaller reporting company. We have not yet evaluated whether our internal control procedures are effective and therefore there is a greater likelihood of material weaknesses in our internal controls, which could lead to misstatements or omissions in our reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such evaluations.

If material weaknesses and deficiencies are detected, it could cause investors to lose confidence in our company and result in a decline in our stock price and consequently affect our financial condition. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to helping prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock could drop significantly. In addition, we cannot be certain that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls will not be discovered in the future.

Risks Associated with Management and Control Persons

If we fail to attract and retain qualified senior executive and key technical personnel, our business will not be able to expand.

We are dependent on the continued availability of Chiyuan Deng, and the availability of new employees to implement our business plans. The market for skilled employees is highly competitive, especially for employees in the service industry. Although we expect that our compensation programs will be intended to attract and retain the employees required for us to be successful, there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of all our key employees or a sufficient number to execute our plans, nor can there be any assurance we will be able to continue to attract new employees as required.

Our personnel may voluntarily terminate their relationship with us at any time, and competition for qualified personnel is intense. The process of locating additional personnel with the combination of skills and attributes required to carry out our strategy could be lengthy, costly and disruptive.

If we lose the services of key personnel, or fail to replace the services of key personnel who depart, we could experience a severe negative effect on our financial results and stock price. In addition, there is intense competition for highly qualified bilingual and “people friendly” personnel in the locations where we principally operate. The loss of the services of any key personnel, marketing or other personnel or our failure to attract, integrate, motivate and retain additional key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating and financial results and stock price.

Mr. Deng owns a significant percentage of the voting power of our stock and will be able to exercise significant influence over the composition of our Board of Directors, matters subject to stockholder approval and our operations.

As of the date of this filing, Chiyuan Deng owns 56,020,000 shares of our common stock representing 52.4% of our company. As a result of Mr. Deng’s equity ownership interest, voting power and the contractual rights described above, he currently is in a position to influence, subject to our organizational documents and Nevada law, the composition of our Board of Directors and the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, such as mergers, business combinations and dispositions of assets, among other corporate transactions. In addition, this concentration of voting power could discourage others from initiating a potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction that may otherwise be beneficial to Interlink, which could adversely affect the market price of our securities.

Risks Related to Our Legal Status

As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements.

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

Even if we no longer qualify for the exemptions for an emerging growth company, we may still be, in certain circumstances, subject to scaled disclosure requirements as a smaller reporting company. For example, smaller reporting companies, like emerging growth companies, are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis under Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K or auditor attestation of internal controls over financial reporting.

Until such time, however, we cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

Risks Related to Our Securities and the Over the Counter Market

If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares.

Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “ABQQ” on the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc, an electronic inter-dealer quotation medium for equity securities. We do not currently have an active trading market. There can be no assurance that an active and liquid trading market will develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained.

Our securities are very thinly traded. Accordingly, it may be difficult to sell shares of our common stock without significantly depressing the value of the stock. Unless we are successful in developing continued investor interest in our stock, sales of our stock could continue to result in major fluctuations in the price of the stock. 

Our common stock price may be volatile and could fluctuate widely in price, which could result in substantial losses for investors.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

• technological innovations or new products and services by us or our competitors;
• government regulation of our products and services;
• the establishment of partnerships with other technology companies;
• intellectual property disputes;
• additions or departures of key personnel;
• sales of our common stock
• our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services;
• our ability to execute our business plan;
• operating results below expectations;
• loss of any strategic relationship;
• industry developments;
• economic and other external factors; and
• periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results.

Because we have nominal revenues to date, you should consider any one of these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate widely as a result of any of the above.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

As a new investor, you will experience substantial dilution as a result of future equity issuances.

In the event we are required to raise additional capital it may do so by selling additional shares of common stock thereby diluting the shares and ownership interests of existing shareholders.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations and FINRA’s sales practice requirements, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited

investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in, and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority’ requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock.

Rule 144 sales in the future may have a depressive effect on our stock price as an increase in supply of shares for sale, with no corresponding increase in demand will cause prices to fall.

All of the outstanding shares of common stock held by the present officers, directors, and affiliate stockholders are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a person who is an affiliate or officer or director who has held restricted securities for six months may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a company’s outstanding common stock. There is no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the owner has held the restricted securities for a period of six months if the company is a current reporting company under the 1934 Act. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may have a depressive effect upon the price of the common stock in any market that may develop.  

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal auditing and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures.

If we fail to comply in a timely manner with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify, such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations, we are required to prepare assessments regarding internal controls over financial reporting and, furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. We have begun the process of documenting and testing our internal control procedures in order to satisfy these requirements, which is likely to result in increased general and administrative expenses and may shift management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. While our management is expending significant resources in an effort to complete this important project, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our objective on a timely basis. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment or complete our Section 404 certifications could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

In addition, in connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we may discover “material weaknesses” in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The PCAOB defines “significant deficiency” as a deficiency that results in more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.

In the event that a material weakness is identified, we will employ qualified personnel and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any material weaknesses that we identify. However, the process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the future.

Any failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of the periodic management evaluations of our internal controls and, in the case of a failure to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify, would adversely affect the annual auditor attestation reports regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that are required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Inadequate internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

We do not intend to pay dividends.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends. Even if funds are legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide in our sole discretion not to pay dividends. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors our board of directors may consider relevant. There is no assurance that we will pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are rapid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.

Item 2. Properties

We do not own or rent any real estate or other properties. A major shareholder of the Company, Spring Wood Ventures Limited, provides us with office space, free of charge, at 16/F Rich Towers 2 Blenheim Avenue, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The Company pays property management fees, electricity fees, and water supply fees.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us. 

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Market Information

Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “ABQQ” on the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. 

There is currently no active trading market for our securities. There is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop, or if developed, that it will be sustained. Therefore, a shareholder may be unable to resell his securities in our company.

The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid quotations for our common stock for each of the periods indicated as reported by the OTCQB. These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

Penny Stock

The Securities Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;(b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask  price;(d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;(e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and;(f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with; (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;(b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;(c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, because our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

Holders of Our Common Stock

As of December 3, 2018, we had 106,725,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by approximately 531 shareholders of record, with others holding shares in street name.

Dividends

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay cash dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

We have no equity compensation plans.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the year ended August 31, 2018, we issued common shares, as follows:

These securities were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The holders represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view towards distribution. The investors were given adequate information about us to make an informed investment decision. We did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising. We directed our transfer agent to issue the stock certificates with the appropriate restrictive legend affixed to the restricted stock.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

Results of operations for the years ended August 31, 2018 and 2017 

Until this year we have incurred recurring losses. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the funds we require to implement our business plan.

Revenues

We generated $250,112 in revenues from continued operations during the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with no revenues from continued operations for the same period ended August 31, 2017.

Our cost of revenues was $150,022 for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with $25,000 for the same period ended August 31, 2017.

We had gross profit of $100,090 for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with a gross loss of $25,000 for the year ended August 31, 2017.

We expect to continue to achieve steadily increasing revenues within the coming months. However, as we are a start-up, we have limited operating history to rely upon and we cannot guarantee that our business plan will be successful.  

Operating Expenses

We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $977,328 for the year ended August 31, 2018, compared with operating expenses of $159,394 for the year ended August 31, 2017. Our operating expenses for the year ended August 31, 2018 mainly consisted of general and administrative expenses of $897,587, and related party - salaries and wages of $79,741. Our operating expenses for the year ended August 31, 2017 mainly consisted of general and administrative expenses of $129,394, and related party - salaries and wages of $30,000.

We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we undertake our plan of operations, including increased costs associated with marketing, personnel, and other general and administrative expenses, along with increased professional fees associated with SEC compliance as our business grows more complex and more expensive to maintain.

Income from Discontinued Operations

On November 16, 2017, we sold the copyright and all other rights in a film named “Gong Fu Nv Pai” copyright and the mobile application (Amoney) assets to an unrelated party for $253,000 cash. The Company recorded gain on sales of assets of $7,280 as discontinued operations during the year ended August 31, 2018.

The following table shows the results of operations of mobile application and copyright for the year ended August 31, 2018 and 2017 which are included in the gain from discontinued operations:

Net (Loss) Income

We incurred a net loss in the amount of $1,111,950 for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with net income of $141,432 for the year ended August 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of August 31, 2018, we had $553,669 in current assets consisting of cash, accounts receivable, and prepaid expenses. Our total current liabilities as of August 31, 2018 were $145,961. As a result, we have working capital of $407,707 as of August 31, 2018.

Operating activities used $866,887 in cash for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with $166,522 in cash provided for the year ended August 31, 2017. Our negative operating cash flow in 2018 was mainly the result of our net loss of $1,157,238 from continuing operations, offset mainly by consulting fees paid in stock in the amount of $196,250 and amortization of intangible assets of $106,000. Our positive operating cash flow in 2017 was mainly the result of our net income from discontinued operations of $325,826, offset mainly by our net loss from continuing operations of $184,394.

Investing activities used $227,000 in cash for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with $500,000 used for the year ended August 31, 2017. Our negative investing cash flow for the year ended August 31, 2018 is the result of our purchase of intangible assets for our cryptocurrency business and our investment in iCrowdU, offset by the sale of the copyright and all other rights in a film named “Gong Fu Nv Pai” copyright and the mobile application (Amoney) assets to an unrelated party.

Financing activities provided $1,156,924 cash for the year ended August 31, 2018, as compared with $313,816 for the year ended August 31, 2017. Our positive financing cash flow for both periods was mainly proceeds from the sale of our common stock.

There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of August 31, 2018, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

Going Concern

As of August 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,047,386 and net loss of $1,111,950 and net cash used in operations of $866,887 for the year ended August 31, 2018. Losses have principally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for general and administrative expenses associated with our operations. Our continuation as a going concern through August 31, 2019 is dependent upon the continued financial support from our stockholders or external financing. Management believes the existing stockholders will provide the additional cash to meet with our obligations as they become due. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Our critical accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 to the financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
AB International Group Corp

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of AB International Group Corp (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2018, and 2017, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficits and statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of AB International Group Corp as of August 31, 2018, and 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter - Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AUGUST 31, 2018

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

AB International Group Corp. (the "Company", "we" or "us") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 29, 2013 ("Inception") and originally intended to purchase used cars in the United States and sell them in Krygyzstan. The Company's fiscal year end is August 31.

On January 22, 2016, our former sole officer, who owned 83% of our outstanding common shares, sold all of his common shares to unrelated investor Jianli Deng. After the stock sale, we modified our business to focus on the creation of a mobile app marketing engine. The app was designed for movie trailer promotions and we planned to generate a subscriber base of smartphone users primarily through pre-installed app smartphone makers, online app stores, WeChat official accounts, Weibo and other social network media outlets and sell prepaid cards or coins to movie distributors or other video advertisers in China. We created the app “Amoney” for the Android smartphone platform to develop a WeChat micro-shop that was designed to display and deliver a variety of information and links for download or online watch prices in the China market.

For the year ended August 31, 2016, we generated revenue of $28,200 from one company that paid us to post their movie trailers on our smartphone app for a one month period. On November 16, 2017, however, we sold the mobile application (Amoney) because we believed there were too many competitors in the market. We remained focused on the acquisition and development of intellectual property.

On June 1, 2017, we entered into a Patent License Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which Guangzhou Shengshituhua Film and Television Company Limited, a company incorporated in China (“Licensor”), granted to us a worldwide license to a video synthesis and release system for mobile communications equipment (the “Technology”). The Technology is the subject of a utility model patent in the People’s Republic of China. Under the Agreement, we are able to utilize, improve upon, and sub-license the technology for an initial period of 5 years, subject to a right to renew for an additional 5 year term. We were obligated to pay the Licensor $500,000 within 30 days of the date of the Agreement and a royalty fee in the amount of 20% of any proceeds resulting from our utilization of the Technology, whether in the form of sub-licensing fees or sales of licensed products. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chiyuan Deng and former Chief Executive Officer, Jianli Deng, jointly own and control Licensor. On October 10, 2017, we completed the payment of all amounts due under the Agreement.

Our License to the Technology generates revenue through sub-license monthly fees from a smartphone app on Android devices. This app was already existing and licensed at the time we acquired the Technology.

We are in the process of using the underlying Technology to create a smartphone video mix app and social video sharing platform. We are developing this new apps for use with iOS and Android smartphones and we expect to launch the app sometime in the beginning of next year. We expect that this new app will transform the way users create and share art talent and fun. The app is expected to take advantage of the core design philosophy of “My film anyone, anywhere, anytime be together.” Similar and competitive innovative video and community apps have been activated on over 2 million unique devices in China as of December 31, 2017 and precipitated the duet video synthesis phenomenon in China. Today, the word “Meitu” is used as a verb for “enhancing images”, and TikTok is a short video sharing platform. Our Videomix app, yet to be released, is expected to be used as a verb for “enhancing videos synthesis production,” but also as a brand that represents talent, trendiness, youthfulness and funniness.

To better meet our users’ demands for higher quality selfies, we are also planning to launch the Patent (Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system) License Program. The program markets our Technology to big brand smartphones makers to highlight our patent apps integrate proprietary video synthesis production and distribution system processing algorithms and specialized video processors, which generate high-quality selfies duet video synthesis. We have been in discussion with these smartphone makers about our initiatives and selling points in an effort to increase sales. Revenue from this program will be generated by license fees for each smartphone with this video synthesis production and distribution system function.

Fundamentally, we view ourselves as a mobile Internet company with our core asset being our massive, active and fast-growing user base through registered patent--Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system.

We believe that the VideoMix app will become an important part of users’ social lives online. We believe the provision of relevant products, content and services will help us monetize our user base and enable us to create value for our users at the same time. We intend to continue to drive our near-term revenue growth through patent--Mobile communication equipment video synthesis production and distribution system license fees from smartphone makers, since China’s large smartphone market continues to present significant opportunities. Our goal is that at least 10% of smartphones in China will eventually contain this integrated patent function. If we meet this goal, which would equate to around 40 million smartphones, which in turn result in about 200 million RMB in revenue generated from patent license fees. As we have not yet commercialized the app for sale, we do not expect to achieve any revenues until we launch the app and make it available under our program, and we can provide no assurances that we will be able to achieve commercialization or our revenue goals for the app. According to preliminary data of the IDC Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker, the Chinese smartphone market shipped 105 million units during the second quarter of 2018. Following our successful monetization through smartphones, we have also identified three other major opportunities for monetization, including content use fees, advertising fees, KOL agency fees.

On March 10, 2018, we acquired intellectual property from Aura Blocks Ltd. for $200,000 in cash. On March 19, 2018, we entered into consulting agreements (the “Consulting Agreements”) with four consultants (the “Consultants”). The Consulting Agreements have terms or either two or three years. Under the Consulting Agreements the Consultants will provide services to us in Hong Kong and China related to blockchain technology and krypto kiosks. In consideration for the services provided by the Consultants, we have issued the Consultants a total of 1,100,000 shares of our common stock.

On March 21, 2018, we acquired the intellectual assets of KryptoKiosk Limited, a crypto currencies kiosk company which has licenses and patent in Australia, which enable the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs that allow buying and selling of Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethererum all in one terminal. The Company plans to generate revenue through sub-licensing fees for the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs. Through the foregoing the Company proposes to bring a physical aspect to something that is otherwise very abstract to people. We also issued to JPC Fintech Limited (“JPC Fintech”) 2,400,000 common shares with a market value of $72,000 exchange of KryptoKiosk Limited’s assets consist mostly of intellectual property, including, but not limited to, certain domain names, copyrights, trademarks, and patents pending, but also include contract rights and personal property.

We planned to generate revenue through sub-licensing fees for the operation of cryptocurrency ATMs. Through the foregoing, we proposed to bring a physical aspect to something that is otherwise very abstract to people. We planned to invest in machines and sell sub-licenses in the Asia Pacific region with future world-wide expansion. We had promoted and marketed the ATM business for 6 months or until around August 2018, because the BTC and cryptocurrencies price went down.. The IP, however, was never transferred to us, We have repeatedly requested from Messrs. Grounds, Vickery and Shakespare access to the domains and websites and other information concerning the IP assets. As of the date of this annual report, no such information has been provided. In addition, the IP including domain names were transferred to others while Messrs. Vickery and Shakespare were officers of our company. As a result, we ceased promotions and marketing on the ATM business and relations cryptocurrencies business in September 2018. On November 21, 2018, we had sent the final notice that JPC Fintech has materially breached the agreement. We requested that JPC Fintech Ltd. return its stock certificate received in the transaction to our transfer agent for immediate cancellation. We have not yet received the certificate for termination.

On May 9, 2018, we entered into an investor agreement with iCrowdU Inc. We agreed to purchase 228,013 shares of iCrowdU Inc. at a share price of $1.228 for total consideration of $280,000. iCrowdU Inc. offers an online platform and mobile app for crowd funding services targeting the global crowd funding market.

Furthermore, it was agreed to exchange 2,000,000 shares of our common stock for 2,000,000 shares of common stock in iCrowdU Inc. This share exchange was made as collateral in advance of an investment of $1,935,000 by us into iCrowdU Inc., which never occurred.

On or about May 9, 2018, we entered into consultancy agreements with Alexander Holtermann, Ian Wright and Luis Hadic. Each of Messrs. Holtermann, Wright and Hadic received 200,000 shares of our common stock under the consultancy agreements.

On or about July 26, 2018, we entered into an investment agreement with iCrowdU Inc. for the purchase of 40% of iCrowdU in exchange for 8,000,000 shares of our common stock that would be split between Messrs. Holtermann and Wright at 70% and 30%, respectively, and an investment of $10,000,000. The 8,000,000 shares were cut but not delivered to Messrs. Holtermann and Wright and no part of the $10,000,000 was invested by us into iCrowdU Inc.

On or about July 31, 2018, we entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Holtermann and Wright for the consideration provided for under the agreements.

On October 25, 2018, the above parties entered into an Agreement for Termination and Release that terminated all outstanding agreements among the parties and released each party from the other. We agreed to settle outstanding expenses and costs incurred by iCrowdU Inc., in the sum of $6,444.90. In addition, all parties agreed to return any shares received from the above agreements, and we shall be permitted to retain the 228,013 shares purchased in iCrowdU Inc. Finally, we agreed to amend our Current Report on Form 8-K concerning certain disclosures made therein. We amended the report as per the agreement.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company’s year-end is August 31. The financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis, with their fully owned subsidiary App Board Limited. No intercompany balances or transactions exist during the period ended August 31, 2018.

Basis of Consolidation

The financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis, with the Company’s fully owned subsidiary App Board Limited registered and located in Hong Kong. No intercompany balances or transactions exist during the period ended August 31, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company’s planned operations are outside of the United States, which results in exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk arise from the fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degrees of volatility in these rates. Currently the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. Non monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the year. Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from promotional services provided. Amounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. No amount for bad debt expense has been recorded by the Company during the years ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, and no write-off for bad debt were recorded for the years ended August 31, 2018 and 2017.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaids consist of filing fees and advances related to consulting fees that have been paid in advance. The prepaid balances are amortized when the related expense is incurred.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost and depreciated as follows:

Amortized costs of the intangible asset are recorded as cost of sales, as the intangible asset is directly related to generation of revenues in the Company.

Investments in Companies Accounted for Using the Cost Method

In accordance with ASC 320-10, “Investments – Debit and Equity Securities,” investments in other non-consolidated entities are accounted for using the equity method or cost basis depending upon the level of ownership and/or the Company's ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee. Under ASC 325-20, cost method investments are recorded initially at historical cost. Dividends on cost method investments received as part of the investor’s share of net earnings of the investee after the date of investment (i.e., a return on investment) are recorded as income. Please refer to Note 5 for details.

The Company evaluates its investments in companies accounted for by the cost method for impairment when there is evidence or indicators that a decrease in value may be other than temporary.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under ASC 740 deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax expense for the period, if any, and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

ASC 740 also provides criteria for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. Under ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain tax position on the income tax return may only be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. At August 31, 2018, there was unrecognized tax benefits. Please see Notes 8 for details.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:

The Company has recognized the revenues associated with mobile app sales once the criteria has been met, the product has been delivered, and the Company has received payment from the vendor.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

No potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments were issued or outstanding during the years ended August 31, 2018 and 2017.

Recent accounting pronouncements

We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the Company other than those relating to the revised requirements related to revenue recognition, which are required subsequent to December 15, 2016.

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES

The accompanying 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.

As of August 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,047,386 and net loss of $1,111,950 and net cash used in operations of $866,887 for the year ended August 31, 2018. Losses have principally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for general and administrative expenses associated with our operations. The continuation of the Company as a going concern through August 31, 2019 is dependent upon the continued financial support from its stockholders or external financing. Management believes the existing stockholders will provide the additional cash to meet with the Company’s obligations as they become due. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – PREPAID EXPENSES

On June 1, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with an outside phone apps designer. A smartphone apps was designed and its ownership belongs to the Company. Its main use is smartphone video synthesis and sharing.

As noted in Note 1, the Company only completed step 1. Mutual release of any further obligation related to the acquisition has been agreed as noted in Note 1. As a result, the Company invested a total of $280,000 in exchange for 228,013 shares, equivalent to a 1.14% ownership of iCrowdU. The investment has been recorded at cost less impairment. To be conservative, full impairment has been recognized as of August 31, 2018, due to management’s perspective on this unsuccessful investment.

NOTE 6 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On November 16, 2017, the Company sold the copyright and all other rights in a film named “Gong Fu Nv Pai” copyright and the mobile application (Amoney) assets to an unrelated party for cash of $253,000. The Company recorded gain on sales of assets of $7,280 as discontinued operations during the year ended August 31, 2018.

The sales of intangible assets qualified as a discontinued operation of the Company and accordingly, the Company has excluded results of the operations from its Consolidated Statements of Operations to present this revenue and expenses from these intangible assets in discontinued operations.

The Company has completed the accounting for the effects of the Act during the quarter ended August 31, 2018.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of August 31, 2018 was $149,948, and $0 as of August 31, 2017. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of August 31, 2018 and 2017.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, being August 31, 2018. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon that evaluation, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2018 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of August 31, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending August 31, 2019: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our 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 an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Remediation of Material Weakness

We are unable to remedy our controls related to the inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management until we receive financing to hire additional employees.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended August 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting are or will be capable of preventing or detecting all errors or all fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements, due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns may occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk.
