PART I
As used in this Form 10-K, unless the context requires otherwise, we, us, Chee Corp., Chee, or the Company means Chee Corp.
As used in this Form 10-K, unless the context requires otherwise, fiscal year, FY, or fiscal means the Companys financial year that begins on February 1 and ends on January 31 of the following year (for example: fiscal year 2020 is equivalent to the year ended January 31, 2021).
Organization
Chee Corp. was incorporated on October 26, 2016, under the laws of the State of Nevada.
The initial business focus of the Company was to distribute 3D goods and accessories in China. The Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020. From October 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on acquiring commercial real estate in Arizona.
Change in Control Transaction
Effective September 4, 2020, Farm House Partners, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, purchased 4,500,000 shares of the Companys common stock from Da Wei Jiang pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, representing 78.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Farm House Partners, LLC is owned 67% by Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, and 17% by Debbie Rasmussen, the wife of Michael Witherill.
3
The amount of consideration for the purchase of such shares of common stock was a cash payment of $283,973, which was financed through short-term borrowings from two unaffiliated third parties.
As a condition of closing of the transaction, Zhang Shufang, the sole director and officer of the Company, resigned from all of his positions and Aaron Klusman and Michael Witherill were appointed as directors of the Company. In addition, Mr. Klusman was appointed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Mr. Witherill was appointed Vice-Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Company. The effective date of the resignation and appointments was September 18, 2020.
On March 2, 2021, Mr. Witherill resigned from his positions as Vice-Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer, and Rick Gean was appointed to such positions. Mr. Gean served as a consultant to the Company from February 18, 2021, to March 2, 2021. On April 27, 2021, John Morgan was appointed as a director of the Company.
Business Information and Strategy
As described above, the Company underwent a change in control transaction effective September 4, 2020, as a result of which new management of the Company terminated the Companys existing business operations and decided to pursue opportunities to acquire commercial real estate.
On December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, and Aaron Klusman, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the membership interest in Klusman Family Holdings, LLC from Aaron Klusman, who is also Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and a Director of the Company, for consideration consisting of payments totaling $1,500,000 and the issuance of 10,945,250 shares of common stock of the Company. Klusman Family Holdings, LLC is engaged in the business of acquiring, leasing, and managing commercial real property in Arizona. The transaction is currently anticipated to close subsequent to July 31, 2021, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete this transaction. Upon closing, the Company expects that this transaction would be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.
The Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. As of January 31, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any business activities in commercial real estate. The Companys future business activities will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for and availability of additional capital.
Number of Total and Full Time Employees
As of the date of this report on Form 10-K, the Company employed 3 people, of which 3 are full-time employees. We believe that our employee and labor relations are good. None of our full-time employees are members of unions.
Further Information
The Company has filed this Annual Report with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). We are subject to the information reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and, accordingly, file periodic reports, including quarterly and annual reports and other information with the SEC. Such reports and other information may be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports, proxy, and information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically. The address of the website is http://www.sec.gov.

You should carefully consider the following factors regarding information included in this Report. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.
The Company is subject to various risks that may materially harm its business, financial condition, and results of operations. The risks and uncertainties described below, while inclusive of all risks we believe to be material at this time, may not be the only ones. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, the Companys business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed. Except for historical information, the information contained in these risk factors and in our SEC reports are forward looking statements about our expected future business and performance. Our actual operating results and financial performance may prove to be very different from what we might have predicted as of the date of this Annual Report.
General Risks Related to the Companys Business
We recently paid compensation to our directors and/or officers for their services to the Company and may continue to do so in the future. Aaron Klusman and Michael Witherill were appointed officers and directors of the Company effective September 18, 2020, who had not received any compensation for their services until January 7, 2021. As compensation for their services, the Board of Directors periodically authorizes payments to each of Mr. Klusman and Mr. Witherill, and may continue to do so in the future. As Mr. Klusman and Mr. Witherill constituted a majority of the directors, they had the ability to change or increase the amount of each others compensation at will and there is no standard as to the timing or amount of this compensation established by the Company. However, with the appointment of John Morgan to the Board of Directors, neither Mr. Klusman nor Mr. Witherill can unilaterally change or increase each others compensation provided they recuse themselves from decisions affecting their respective compensation.
The Company has generated operating losses since its change of business; going concern issues. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities. We have limited historical, operating, or financial information upon which to evaluate our performance. There can be no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. Funds required for the initial operations over the next 18 months have not yet been determined and may be for amounts the Company is not able to raise.
The Companys financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the Companys financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. During the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $482,018. From October 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020, through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash resources available to fund its operations and therefore has ongoing needs to raise additional funds in the short-term. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Companys financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability.
5
Change in business focus. The Company underwent a change in control transaction effective September 4, 2020, as a result of which new management of the Company terminated the Companys existing business operations and decided to enter the commercial real estate market. In order to acquire commercial property, the Company will need to raise additional capital, and there can be no assurance that the new business focus will ultimately be achieved and be successful. The Companys business activities will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for substantial additional capital, and the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be impacted by a number of factors, many of which will be beyond the Companys control.
If we do not raise sufficient capital, and if we cannot obtain adequate financing, we may cease operations. Our ability to raise capital is largely dependent on the efforts of Mr. Witherill. If we fail to raise enough capital, we will be impeded from fully implementing our business plans which could have a material adverse effect upon our ability to generate revenue and income. Not fully implementing our strategy will significantly constrain our scope and opportunities, slowing or possibly even halting our plans to expand into additional much more profitable industries and markets. While we expect to continue raising capital, we have no committed sources of additional financing and our officers and directors are not required to provide any portion of our future financing requirements. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all if and when we need it. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, we may not be able to pursue our business strategies as anticipated, or at all, and we may cease operations. We plan to raise additional funds by raising more capital through other shares offerings which will dilute your ownership in the Company. In addition, any new securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the Shares. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that additional financing will be available when and to the extent we require or that, if available, it will be on acceptable terms.
Our binding letter of intent may not materialize into an acquisition. On December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC (KFH), and Aaron Klusman, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the membership interest in KFH from Mr. Klusman, who is also Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and a Director of the Company, for consideration consisting of payments totaling $1,500,000 and the issuance of 10,945,250 shares of common stock of the Company. KFH is engaged in the business of acquiring, leasing, and managing commercial real property in Arizona. The transaction is currently anticipated to close subsequent to July 31, 2021, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete this transaction.
Currently, we are solely relying on this letter of intent to acquire KFH. While we intend to enforce the letter of intent, the transaction outlined therein is ultimately subject to negotiating asset or equity purchase or merger agreements in good faith among the parties. We have no mortgage or other security interest in any property owned by KFH, which we believe has debt obligations which would be senior to any lien we filed anyway. Failure to reach consensus may subject us to significant delays in completing the acquisition, require court action to enforce it, or may even ultimately result in failure to consummate the acquisition, which will have a material adverse effect on the Company and may ultimately not permit us to achieve our business plans altogether.
We have outstanding debt to related parties and must raise capital to repay these related parties. The Company has entered into several promissory notes with related parties in an aggregate amount of approximately $598,000 that will need to be repaid in the foreseeable future. In addition to capital which must be raised to support payroll, legal and accounting fees, and to fund the anticipated needs of a real estate portfolio held by KFH, we must raise capital to repay these debt obligations with more immediate timeline demands. Capital raised in the past was from a related party with indebtedness due and payable beginning on June 30, 2021, and therefore we would need to locate an alternative source of capital to repay the related party notes. An event of default under those notes could negatively impact the Company and its operations.
We have extended loans to one related party to acquire real property but there is no guarantee that such acquisitions will take place and we may extend additional loans to this related party in the future. As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company had advanced an aggregate of approximately $1,400,000 to Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, and may advance additional amounts in the future. Each of the advances made was evidenced by an unsecured promissory note payable to the Company, but here can be no assurance that these advances will be fully repaid. The proceeds of each of these advances is to be used by Klusman Family Holdings, LLC toward the purchase of real property located in Arizona. Aaron Klusman is the sole member of Klusman Family Holdings, LLC. Mr. Klusman is also Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company.

Our anticipated real property acquisitions may not perform as expected and similar opportunities may not be available in the future. Our business is dependent on our ability to acquire real property, and any growth through such acquisitions will depend in part upon the availability of suitable real property at attractive prices, terms and conditions, as well as sufficient liquidity and credit to fund these acquisitions. We may incur significant additional debt from time to time to finance any such acquisitions. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our then-existing debt, would increase. Acquisitions of real property involve risks that business judgments made concerning the value, strengths and weaknesses of property acquired may prove to be incorrect.
There are inherent risks with real estate investments. Investments in real property are subject to varying degrees of risk. For example, an investment in real estate cannot generally be quickly converted to cash, limiting our ability to promptly vary our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions. Investments in real commercial estate are subject to adverse changes in general economic conditions which reduce the demand for rental space. Other factors also affect the value of real estate assets, including:
· | federal, state or local regulations and controls affecting rents, zoning, prices of goods, fuel and energy consumption, water and environmental restrictions; |
· | the attractiveness of a property to tenants; and |
· | labor and material costs. |
Further, our investments in commercial real estate following the potential acquisition of KFH may not generate revenues sufficient to meet operating expenses.
We have not conducted the due diligence necessary to determine whether the commercial properties owned by KFH have sufficient rents to support the loans securing the properties; the need to renovate, make other necessary capital improvements, or demolish the buildings located on the commercial properties; any title issues, zoning, taxes, or potential condemnation proceedings, or other municipal requirements or regulations which may impact the value of the commercial properties; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tenants which occupy the properties and the potential for default in rent payments; or the long term viability of the property locations. In entering into the binding letter of intent, our management team relied on the long term favorable macroeconomic trends of net migration to the greater Phoenix area and Arizona in general, believing that the mass exodus from states such as California would benefit the commercial real estate market in general. However, the commercial property-by-property due diligence of the KFH real estate portfolio has not been completed and may result in the discovery of some material adverse concerns requiring significant additional capital and retention of independent consultants needing substantial capital infusions to resolve which we may not be able to finance.
7
We may be subject to environmental liability as a result of our ownership of commercial real estate. Various laws and regulations impose liability on real property owners or operators for the cost of investigating, cleaning up or removing contamination caused by hazardous or toxic substances at a property. This liability may be imposed without regard to the legality of the original actions and without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. If we fail to disclose environmental issues, we could also be liable to a buyer or lessee of a property. If we incur any such liability, our business could suffer significantly as it could be difficult for us to develop or sell such properties, or borrow funds using such properties as collateral. In the event of a substantial liability, our insurance coverage might be insufficient to pay the full damages, or the scope of available coverage may not cover certain of these liabilities. Additionally, liabilities incurred to comply with more stringent future environmental requirements could adversely affect our business.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Company. The global outbreak of COVID-19 has led to severe disruptions in general economic activities, as businesses and governments have taken broad actions to mitigate this public health crisis. Although the Company has not experienced any significant disruption to its business to date, these conditions could significantly negatively impact the Companys business in the future.
The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Companys business, future revenues, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future. As a result of the impact of COVID-19 on capital markets, the availability, amount and type of financing available to the Company in the near future is uncertain and cannot be assured and is largely dependent upon evolving market conditions and other factors. The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.
The loss or unavailability of any of our executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business. We have a very small staff and depend greatly on the efforts of our executive officers and other key employees to manage our operations. The loss or unavailability of any of our executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business. In particular, we depend on Mr. Witherill to raise the capital we need to finance our acquisitions of real property and the loss of Mr. Witherill would likely result in the inability to acquire KFH, and we would then have no viable business plan to make the sale acquisition in process.
We have a limited operating history and rely heavily on our management to become profitable. The Company is subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the commencement of a new business enterprise. We anticipate that our expenses will increase in the foreseeable future. Costs including capital required investments in commercial real estate ventures as well as acquisition costs for legal and other related expenses to close on the acquisitions of properties, the filing of SEC reports, and the general marketing and administrative overhead associated with a new business. These efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenues sufficiently to offset these higher expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be profitable in the future.
8
Our operations are subject to cyber-attacks that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition. Our operations are increasingly dependent on digital technologies and services. We use these technologies for internal purposes, including data storage, processing and transmissions, as well as in our interactions with investors and target investments. Digital technologies are subject to the risk of cyber-attacks. If our systems for protecting against cybersecurity risks prove not to be sufficient, we could be adversely affected by, among other things: loss of or damage to proprietary or confidential information, or investors, or employee data; interruption of our business operations; and increased costs required to prevent, respond to, or mitigate cybersecurity attacks. These risks could harm our reputation and our relationships with investors, employees and other third parties, and may result in claims against us. These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.
Difficult conditions in the global capital markets and economy generally, as well as political conditions in the United States and elsewhere, may materially adversely affect our business. Our business will be materially affected by conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally, both in the United States and elsewhere around the world. Economic growth, job growth, and general economic conditions in the United States have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and there is no guarantee that favorable economic conditions will return in the near future. Should economic growth continue to remain uncertain, it may have an adverse effect on us, in part because we will be very dependent upon consumer behavior once we begin operations. A prolonged period of slow economic growth or deterioration in economic conditions could change consumer behaviors. Factors such as consumer spending, business investment, government spending, tariffs, interest rates, tax rates, fuel, and other energy costs, the volatility and strength of the capital markets, and inflation all affect the business and economic environment and, ultimately, our ability to generate revenue. An economic downturn characterized by higher unemployment, lower family income, lower corporate earnings, lower business investment, and lower consumer spending would likely materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Ownership of our shares is concentrated in a majority stockholder. The concentration of our capital stock ownership is with Farm House Partners, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company formed on August 7, 2020, of which Mr. Witherill is sole manager.
Raising additional capital may cause additional dilution to our stockholders or restrict our operations. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring distributions. Any of these events could adversely affect our ability to achieve our product development and commercialization goals and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
9
We have agreed to provide indemnification to our officers and directors. The Companys Bylaws provide indemnification to the full extent provided by law to our directors and officers, and provide that, to the extent permitted by Nevada law, a director will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company or its stockholders for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for certain actions that may not be limited under Nevada law. These indemnification provisions may limit the ability of stockholders to seek recourse against our officers and directors.

ITEM 7 – MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020. From October 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona.
Effective September 4, 2020, Farm House Partners, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, purchased 4,500,000 shares of the Companys common stock from Da Wei Jiang pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, representing 78.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Farm House Partners, LLC is owned 67% by Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, and 17% by Debbie Rasmussen, the wife of Michael Witherill.
The amount of consideration for the purchase of such shares of common stock was a cash payment of $283,973, which was financed through short-term borrowings from two unaffiliated third parties.
As a condition of closing of the transaction, Zhang Shufang, the sole director and officer of the Company, resigned from all of his positions and Aaron Klusman and Michael Witherill were appointed as directors of the Company. In addition, Mr. Klusman was appointed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Michael Witherill was appointed Vice-Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Company. The effective date of the resignation and appointments was September 18, 2020. On March 2, 2021, Michael Witherill resigned as Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Company and Rick Gean was appointed to such positions. On April 27, 2021, John Morgan was appointed as a director of the Company.
Business and Related Risks and Uncertainties
As described above, the Company underwent a change in control transaction effective September 4, 2020, as a result of which new management of the Company terminated the Companys existing business operations and decided to reorient the Companys business activities into commercial real estate.
On December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, and Aaron Klusman, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the membership interest in Klusman Family Holdings, LLC from Aaron Klusman, who is also Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and a Director of the Company, for consideration consisting of payments totaling $1,500,000 and the issuance of 10,945,250 shares of common stock of the Company. Klusman Family Holdings, LLC is engaged in the business of acquiring, leasing, and managing real property in Arizona. The transaction is currently anticipated to close subsequent to July 31, 2021, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete this transaction.

The Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. As of January 31, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any business activities in commercial real estate. The Companys future business activities will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for and availability of additional capital.
The Companys proposed business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States generally and in Arizona specifically. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets and the general condition of the economy. A host of factors beyond the Companys control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse developments in these general business and economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and the results of its operations, both in the short-term and the long-term, as well as on the Companys ability to complete the transaction with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC as described above.
The Company has received significant financial support from a private investor, Lawrence Silver, to allow the Company to fund its business operations in 2021. From early January 2021 through May 8, 2021, the Company has raised working capital from Lawrence Silver through the sale of shares and short-term borrowings, which has provided an aggregate of $1,500,000 of equity capital and $500,000 of debt capital. The working capital provided by Lawrence Silver has provided the Company with the resources to fund the Companys advances to Klusman Family Holdings, LLC to acquire commercial real estate in Arizona. As of May 8, 2021, Lawrence Silver owned approximately 28.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Companys common stock, and the Company has an interest-bearing unsecured promissory note of $500,000 payable to Lawrence Silver that matures on June 22, 2021.
Discontinued Operations and Reclassifications
Prior to the change in control transaction described above, the Company was in the early stages of developing and financing a business plan to distribute 3D goods and accessories in China. As a result of the change in control transaction, the Companys former business operations (for the period from October 1, 2020, through September 30, 2020) have been presented as discontinued operations as of January 31, 2021, and for the year ended January 31, 2021. Comparative amounts as of January 31, 2020, and for the year ended January 31, 2020, have been reclassified to conform to the current years presentation. These changes did not impact the Companys net loss, shareholders equity (deficiency) or operating cash flows for any reported period.
Going Concern
The Companys financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates among other things the receipt of receivables and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the Companys financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. During the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $482,018. From October 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020, through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash resources available to fund its operations and therefore has ongoing needs to raise additional funds in the short-term. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Companys financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
12
The development and expansion of the Companys business subsequent to January 31, 2021, will be dependent on many factors, including the capital resources available to the Company. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that they will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or adequate to fund the development and expansion of the Companys business operations to a level that is commercially viable and self-sustaining. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus pandemic may have on the availability, amount, and type of financing in the future.
If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Companys ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, obtain funds, if available, although there can be no certainty, through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to any assets, or to discontinue its operations entirely.
Concentrations
The Company may periodically contract with consultants and vendors to provide services related to the Companys business activities. Agreements for these services may be for a specific time period or for a specific project or task.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. ASU 2016-13 will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the provisions of ASU 2016-13 as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU 2016-13 is effective. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Management is currently in the process of assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU-2016-13 on the Companys financial statement presentation and disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance in ASC 740. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entitys Own Equity (ASU 2020-06). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entitys own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and only if adopted as of the beginning of such fiscal year. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures subsequent to its adoption, with any effect being largely dependent on the composition and terms of outstanding financial instruments at the time of adoption.
13
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations presented below is based on the Companys financial statements for the years ended January 31, 2021 and 2020, presented elsewhere in this document, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Certain accounting policies and estimates are particularly important to the understanding of the Companys financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management or can be materially effected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of the Companys control. As a result, these issues are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on the Companys historical operations, the future business plans and the projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, trends in the industry, and information available from other outside sources. For a more complete description of the Companys significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to the financial statements included elsewhere in this document.
Results of Operations
At January 31, 2021, the Company had no revenue-generating operations and is dependent on periodic infusions of debt and/or equity capital to fund its operating requirements. As described above, the Company is attempting to enter into the commercial real estate business but has not yet acquired any interests in commercial real estate, and there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
Operating Expenses
The Company generally recognizes operating costs and expenses as they are incurred in the appropriate category in the Companys statement of operations. The Companys operating costs and expenses may also include non-cash components related to depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and stock-based compensation.
General and administrative costs and expenses consist of accounting fees, audit fees, legal fees, transfer agent fees, and other general corporate expenses. Management expects general and administrative costs and expenses to increase in future periods as the Company develops its business operations and adds personnel, and incurs additional costs related to its increased operation as a public company including higher legal, accounting, insurance, compliance, compensation, and other costs.
The Companys statements of operations as discussed herein are presented below.

Years Ended January 31, 2021 and 2020

General and administrative costs increased by $445,213 in 2021, as compared to 2020, primarily as a result of increased accounting, audit fees and legal fees.
Loss from Operations. For the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company had a loss from operations of $480,570, as compared to a loss from operations of $35,386 for the year ended January 31, 2020.

Net Loss. For the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company had a net loss of $482,018, as compared to a net loss of $26,465 for the year ended January 31, 2020. This significant increase in net loss was due to the significant increase in General and Administrative Costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources – January 31, 2021
At January 31, 2021, the Company had working capital of $822,681, as compared to working capital deficiency of $22,672 at January 31, 2020, reflecting an increase in working capital of $845,353 for the year ended January 31, 2021. The increase in working capital during the year ended January 31, 2021, was the result of cash proceeds of $1,500,000 from the sale of Company common stock, which are being utilized to fund the Companys advances on real estate owned by KFH and ongoing operating expenses. At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash available to fund its investing and operating activities and will need to raise additional funds in the short-term. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
15
The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020, through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. The Company has also received significant financial support from a private investor, Lawrence Silver, to allow the Company to fund its business operations in 2021
The Companys future business activities will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for and availability of additional capital, and the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be impacted by a number of factors, many of which will be beyond the Companys control.
No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or adequate to fund the development and expansion of the Companys business operations to a level that is commercially viable and self-sustaining. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus pandemic may have on the availability, amount and type of financing in the future.
If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Companys ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, obtain funds, if available, although there can be no certainty, through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to any assets, or to discontinue its operations entirely.
Operating Activities. For the year ended January 31, 2021, operating activities utilized cash of $386,011, as compared to utilizing cash of $32,086 for the year ended January 31, 2020, to fund the Companys ongoing operating expenses.
Investing Activities. For the year ended January 31, 2021, the Companys investing activities consisted of providing an advance to, and the proceeds of notes receivable, to a related party, of $210,000 with respect to a pending transaction. For the year ended January 31, 2020, the Company had no investing activities.
Financing Activities. For the year ended January 31, 2021, financing activities consisted of the proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $1,500,000, and of loans from related parties of $54,770. Additionally, the loans from related parties of $54,770 were repaid during the year ended January 31, 2021. For the year ended January 31, 2020, financing activities consisted of proceeds from a related party loan of $13,700.
Discontinued Operating Activities. For the year ended January 31, 2021, discontinued operating activities generated cash of $10,600, as compared to generating cash of $14,662 for the year ended January 31, 2020.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have any transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Company
The global outbreak of COVID-19 has led to disruptions in general economic activities, as businesses and governments have taken broad actions to mitigate this public health crisis. Although the Company has not experienced any significant disruption to its business to date, these conditions could significantly negatively impact the Companys business in the future.
16
The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Companys business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.
There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that COVID-19 may have on the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future.
The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.
Trends, Events and Uncertainties
There can be no assurances that the Company will ever achieve sustainable revenues sufficient to support its operations. Even if the Company is able to generate revenues, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve profitability or positive operating cash flows. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms or at all. If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Companys ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, or obtain funds, if available (although there can be no certainty), through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its programs, or to curtail or discontinue its operations entirely.
Other than as discussed above and elsewhere in these financial statements, the Company is not currently aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that are likely to have a material effect on the Companys financial condition in the near term, although it is possible that new trends or events may develop in the future that could have a material effect on the Companys financial condition.
ITEM 7A – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide Item 7A disclosure.
ITEM 8 – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Information required by this Item 8 is incorporated by reference to our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm beginning at page F-1 of this Report.
17
ITEM 9 – CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There were no disagreements or reportable events with Michael Gillespie & Associates, PLLC, our former independent registered public accounting firm.
ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013).
The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to ensure that material information regarding the Companys operations is made available to management and the board of directors to provide them reasonable assurance that the published financial statements are fairly presented.
The Company is required to establish and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, consisting of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As required by Rule 15d-15(b) of the SEC, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, consisting of the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2021, the end of the most recent period covered by this report.
Based upon that evaluation, the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of January 31, 2021, due to the identification of significant deficiencies and the existence of the material weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial reporting as described below, the Company concluded that the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, consisting of the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance concerning both the reliability of its financial reporting and the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) and SEC reporting standards. The Companys internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that obligate the Company to maintain reasonably detailed records that accurately and fairly reflect the Companys business transactions, provide reasonable assurance that the Companys business transactions are properly and timely recorded, ensure that the Companys receipts and disbursements are authorized by management, if applicable, by the Companys board of directors, that revenues are properly and timely recorded, and that assets are properly identified, recorded and periodically evaluated for impairment.
The Company underwent a change in control transaction effective September 4, 2020, as a result of which the business, operations, accounting, board of directors and executive management of the Company changed. Based on the Companys assessment, management has concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2021, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and SEC reporting standards, for the reasons noted below.
As of the end of the fiscal year, executive management had not retained the financial and accounting staff necessary to conform to the checks and balances needed for proper internal controls, as well as with the technical competence and accounting experience to address accounting and reporting issues under US GAAP and SEC reporting standards. Current management recently retained a CFO qualified in public report issues and has retained the services of qualified outside consultants with expertise to perform specific accounting and finance functions, and to assist in the design of accounting and internal control systems. However, the Company has not yet completed the process to establish adequate internal controls over financial reporting, and it expects that this process will take some time to accomplish and will require the availability of additional operating capital. However, there can be no assurances that these efforts will be sufficient to fully develop and implement adequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.
18
The Companys management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Furthermore, 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. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and any instances of malfeasance or fraud have been detected.
Management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, the Companys financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period ended January 31, 2021.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Companys management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has determined that no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during or subsequent to the quarter ended July 31, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting, other than the material weaknesses as noted above.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
None.

Such persons are further required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms (including Forms 3, 4 and 5) that they file.

Code of Ethics
We have not yet adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or person performing similar functions. Due the recent change of control of the Company, new management is still in the process of developing such policies. Nevertheless, management makes every effort to ensure that our directors and executive officers engage in honest and ethical conduct; make full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosures in reports and documents filed with the SEC; and compiles with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
22
Nominating Procedures
There have been no material changes to the procedures by which our stockholders may recommend nominees to the Board of Directors during our last fiscal year.
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Company is not a listed issuer under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. The Company does not currently have an audit committee, however, for certain purposes of the rules and regulations of the SEC and in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Companys Board of Directors is deemed to be its audit committee and as such functions as an audit committee and performs some of the same functions as an audit committee including: (a) selection and oversight of our independent accountant, (b) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters, and (c) engaging outside advisors.
ITEM 11 – EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview of Compensation Program
We currently have not appointed members to serve on a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Until a formal committee is established, our entire Board of Directors has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with the Companys compensation philosophy. The Board of Directors ensures that the total compensation paid to the executives is fair, reasonable, and competitive.
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
The Board of Directors believes that the most effective executive compensation program is one that is designed to reward the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals by the Company and that aligns executives interests with those of the stockholders by rewarding performance above established goals, with the ultimate objective of improving stockholder value. As a result of the size of the Company, the Board evaluates both performance and compensation on an informal basis. Upon hiring additional executives, the Board intends to establish a Compensation Committee to evaluate both performance and compensation to ensure that the Company maintains its ability to attract and retain superior employees in key positions and that compensation provided to key employees remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly-situated executives of peer companies. To that end, the Board believes executive compensation packages provided by the Company to its executives, including the named executive officers should include both cash and stock-based compensation that reward performance as measured against established goals.
Role of Executive Officers In Compensation Decisions
The Board of Directors makes all compensation decisions for, and approves recommendations regarding equity awards to, the executive officers and directors of the Company. Decisions regarding the non-equity compensation of other employees of the Company are made by management.
Summary Compensation Table
The following table sets forth, for the fiscal year, certain information regarding the compensation earned by the Companys named executive officers.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Chee Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Chee Corp. as of January 31, 2020 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity (deficiency) and cash flows, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”) for the short year period from February 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 and for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2020 and January 31, 2020 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the short year period from February 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 and for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited operations and 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 1. 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 audits 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 its 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.

We served as the Company’s auditor from February 8, 2018 through November 13, 2020.

The financial statements of the Company as of January 31, 2020 and for the year then ended were audited by other auditors whose report dated April 21, 2020 included a going concern modification on those financial statements.
We did not audit the Companys statement of operations from February 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020, which statement reflects costs of discontinued operations (net of related revenues from discontinued operations) of the Companys former operations in China representing approximately 0.1% of total operating costs for the year ended January 31, 2021. These costs were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to these costs included in the financial statements, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
The Companys Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020 and in conjunction therewith its business operations through September 30, 2020 were accounted for as discontinued operations. From October 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020 through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. Accordingly, management has concluded that these matters raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1 to the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit 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 its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, 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 Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

CHEE CORP.
Years Ended January 31, 2021 and 2020
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Chee Corp. (the Company) was incorporated on October 26, 2016 under the laws of the State of Nevada.
The Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020 and in conjunction therewith its business operations through September 30, 2020 were accounted for as discontinued operations. From October 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona.
Change in Control Transaction
Effective September 4, 2020, Farm House Partners, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, purchased 4,500,000 shares of the Companys common stock from Da Wei Jiang pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, representing 78.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Farm House Partners, LLC is owned 67% by Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, and 17% by Debbie Rasmussen, the wife of Michael Witherill.
The amount of consideration for the purchase of such shares of common stock was a cash payment of $283,973, which was financed through short-term borrowings from two unaffiliated third parties.
As a condition of closing of the transaction, Zhang Shufang, the sole director and officer of the Company, resigned from all of his positions and Aaron Klusman and Michael Witherill were appointed as directors of the Company. In addition, Mr. Klusman was appointed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Mr. Witherill was appointed Vice-Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer of the Company. The effective date of the resignation and appointments was September 18, 2020. The effective date of the resignation and appointments was September 18, 2020.
On March 2, 2021, Mr. Witherill resigned from his positions as Vice-Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer, and Rick Gean was appointed to such positions. Mr. Gean served as a consultant to the Company from February 18, 2021, to March 2, 2021. On April 27, 2021, John Morgan was appointed as a director of the Company.
Business
As described above, the Company underwent a change in control transaction effective September 4, 2020, as a result of which new management of the Company terminated the Companys existing business operations and decided to reorient the Companys business activities into commercial real estate.
On December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, and Aaron Klusman, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the membership interest in Klusman Family Holdings, LLC from Aaron Klusman, who is also Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and a Director of the Company, for consideration consisting of payments totaling $1,500,000 and the issuance of 10,945,250 shares of common stock of the Company. Klusman Family Holdings, LLC is engaged in the business of acquiring, leasing, and managing real property in Arizona. The transaction is currently anticipated to close subsequent to July 31, 2021, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete this transaction. Upon closing, the Company expects that this transaction would be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.
The Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. As of January 31, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any business activities in commercial real estate. The Companys future business activities will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for and availability of additional capital.
F-8
Discontinued Operations and Reclassifications
Prior to the change in control transaction described above, the Company was in the early stages of developing and financing a business plan to distribute 3D goods and accessories in China. As a result of the change in control transaction, the Companys former business operations (for the period from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020) have been presented as discontinued operations as of January 31, 2021 and for the year ended January 31, 2021. Comparative amounts as of January 31, 2020 and for the year ended January 31, 2020 have been reclassified to conform to the current years presentation. These changes did not impact the Companys net loss, shareholders equity (deficiency) or operating cash flows for any reported period.
Going Concern
The Companys financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. During the year ended January 31, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $482,018. As discussed above, the Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020 and in conjunction therewith its business operations through September 30, 2020 were accounted for as discontinued operations. From October 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020 through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash resources available to fund its operations and will therefore need to raise additional funds in the short-term. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Companys financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The development and expansion of the Companys business subsequent to January 31, 2021 will be dependent on many factors, including the capital resources available to the Company. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that they will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or adequate to fund the development and expansion of the Companys business operations to a level that is commercially viable and self-sustaining. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus pandemic may have on the availability, amount, and type of financing in the future.
If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Companys ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, obtain funds, if available, although there can be no certainty, through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to any assets, or to discontinue its operations entirely.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
F-9
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The most significant estimates to be made by management in the preparation of the financial statements are expected to relate to valuing equity instruments issued; the realization of deferred tax assets; and accruals for contingent liabilities.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has suffered losses from operations and negative operating cash flows since inception. The Company underwent a change in control effective September 4, 2020 and in conjunction therewith its business operations through September 30, 2020 were accounted for as discontinued operations. From October 1, 2020 through January 31, 2021, the Companys operations were limited and focused on developing a new business operation involving investment in commercial real estate in Arizona.
On December 15, 2020, the Company entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC, and Aaron Klusman, pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the membership interest in Klusman Family Holdings, LLC from Aaron Klusman, who is also Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and a Director of the Company, for consideration consisting of payments totaling $1,500,000 and the issuance of 10,945,250 shares of common stock of the Company. Klusman Family Holdings, LLC is engaged in the business of acquiring, leasing, and managing real property in Arizona. The transaction is currently anticipated to close subsequent to July 31, 2021, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete this transaction. Upon closing, the Company expects that this transaction would be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.
The Companys proposed business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States generally and in Arizona specifically. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets and the general condition of the economy. A host of factors beyond the Companys control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse developments in these general business and economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and the results of its operations, both in the short-term and the long-term, as well as on the Companys ability to complete the transaction with Klusman Family Holdings, LLC as described above.
The Company has financed its working capital requirements since October 1, 2020 through short-term borrowings, including from its new control shareholder, and sales of common stock. At January 31, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash resources available to fund its operations and will therefore need to raise additional funds in the short-term. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in this regard.
The Company has received significant financial support from a private investor, Lawrence Silver, to allow the Company to fund its business operations in 2021. From early January 2021 through May 8, 2021, the Company has raised working capital from Lawrence Silver through the sale of shares and short-term borrowings, which has provided an aggregate of $1,500,000 of equity capital and $500,000 of debt capital (as described in Notes 6 and 9) The working capital provided by Lawrence Silver has provided the Company with the resources to fund the Companys advances to Klusman Family Holdings, LLC to acquire various real estate properties in Arizona (as described in Notes 3 and 9). As of May 8, 2021, Lawrence Silver currently owns approximately 28.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Companys common stock, and the Company has an interest-bearing unsecured promissory note of $500,000 payable to Lawrence Silver that matures on June 22, 2021.
F-10
Cash
The Company maintains its cash balances with financial institutions with high credit ratings and in accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC). The Company may periodically have cash balances in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses to date resulting from this practice.
Concentrations
The Company may periodically contract with consultants and vendors to provide services related to the Companys business activities. Agreements for these services may be for a specific time period or for a specific project or task.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be credited to operations in the period such determination was made. Alternatively, should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to operations in the period such determination was made.
As the Companys net operating losses in the respective jurisdictions in which it operates have yet to be utilized, all previous tax years remain open to examination by the respective taxing authorities.
The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits as of January 31, 2021 and does not anticipate any material amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
The Company accounts for uncertainties in income tax law under a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns as prescribed by GAAP. The tax effects of a position are recognized only if it is more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the taxing authority as of the reporting date. If the tax position is not considered more-likely-than-not to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are recognized. As of January 31, 2021, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain tax positions in subsequent periods. In future periods, any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions will be recognized as a component of income tax expense.
F-11
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company intends to periodically issue common stock and stock options to officers, directors, employees, contractors and consultants for services rendered. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants, which are generally time vested, will be measured at the grant date fair value and charged to operations ratably over the vesting period.
The Company will account for stock-based payments to officers, directors, employees, contractors, and consultants by measuring the cost of services received in exchange for equity awards utilizing the grant date fair value of the awards, with the cost recognized as compensation expense over the period during which the individual is required to perform services in exchange for the award, which is generally over the vesting period of the award.
The fair value of stock options granted as stock-based compensation will be determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and is effected by several variables, the most significant of which are the life of the equity award, the exercise price of the stock option as compared to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and the estimated volatility of the common stock. Estimated volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys common stock over an appropriate calculation period, or, if not available, by reference to the volatility of a representative sample of comparable public companies. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair market value of the common stock is determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Companys common stock on the grant date.
The Company will recognize the fair value of stock-based compensation awards in in the Companys statements of operations. Through January 31, 2021, the Company has not incurred any stock-based compensation costs. The Company will issue new shares of common stock to satisfy any stock option exercises.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The authoritative guidance with respect to fair value established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of three categories, as presented below. Disclosure as to transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, is also required.
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active-exchange traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.
Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data for the asset or liability which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently traded non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds and are measured using present value pricing models.
The Company will determine the level in the fair value hierarchy within which each fair value measurement falls in its entirety, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. In determining the appropriate levels, the Company will perform an analysis of the assets and liabilities at each reporting period end.
The Companys financial instruments include or are expected to include prepaid expenses, advance to a related party, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and due to related parties. The estimated fair value of these instruments is expected to approximate their respective carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
F-12
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Companys computation of earnings (loss) per share (EPS) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible notes payable, convertible preferred stock and stock options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for all periods presented.
Leases
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02) requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the inception of the lease initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost that is calculated as a total cost of the lease allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. ASU 2016-02 excludes short-term operating leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at the commencement date, and that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company did not have any leases within the scope of ASU 2016-02 at January 31, 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. ASU 2016-13 will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the provisions of ASU 2016-13 as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU 2016-13 is effective. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Management is currently in the process of assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU-2016-13 on the Companys financial statement presentation and disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance in ASC 740. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entitys Own Equity (ASU 2020-06). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entitys own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and only if adopted as of the beginning of such fiscal year. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 is not expected to have any impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures, with any effect being largely dependent on the composition and terms of outstanding financial instruments at the time of adoption.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Companys financial statement presentation or disclosures.

7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Companys deferred tax assets as of January 31, 2021 and 2020 are summarized below.
January 31, | ||||||||
2021 | 2020 | |||||||
Net operating loss carryforwards | $ | 139,000 | $ | 15,300 | ||||
Valuation allowance | (139,000 | ) | (15,300 | ) | ||||
Net deferred tax assets | $ | — | $ | — |
In assessing the potential realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company attaining future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As of January 31, 2021, management was unable to determine if it is more likely than not that the Companys deferred tax assets will be realized and has therefore recorded an appropriate valuation allowance against deferred tax assets at such dates.
No federal tax provision has been provided for the years ended January 31, 2021 and 2020 due to the losses incurred during such periods. The reconciliation below presents the difference between the income tax rate computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate and the effective tax rate for the years ended January 31, 2021 and 2020.
Years Ended January 31, | ||||||||
2021 | 2020 | |||||||
U. S. federal statutory tax rate | 21.0 | % | 21.0 | % | ||||
Change in valuation allowance | (21.0 | )% | (21.0 | )% | ||||
Effective tax rate | 0.0 | % | 0.0 | % |
At January 31, 2021, the Company has available net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $554,800. Federal net operating losses, if not utilized earlier, expire through 2040.
Additionally, at January 31, 2021, the Company has available net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes which were acquired from the accounting acquiree in connection with the reverse acquisition transaction. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the Companys ability to use these net operating loss carryforwards is severely limited because of statutory change in control provisions, as a result of which they are not material and are therefore not included in the deferred tax assets described herein.
As the Companys net operating losses have yet to be utilized, all tax years remain open to examination by federal authorities and other jurisdictions in which the Company currently operates or has operated in the past.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
The Company may, from time to time, be involved in legal proceedings, regulatory actions, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, which are not expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Companys financial statements. As of January 31, 2021, the Company was not a party to any pending or threatened legal proceedings.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Company
The global outbreak of COVID-19 has led to disruptions in general economic activities, as businesses and governments have taken broad actions to mitigate this public health crisis. Although the Company has not experienced any significant disruption to its business to date, these conditions could significantly negatively impact the Companys business in the future.
The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Companys business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.
There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that COVID-19 may have on the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future.
The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.
