(Unaudited)
COSG and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as (the “Company”).
NOTE - 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
· | Use of estimates |
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
· | Basis of consolidation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of COSG and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
· | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in readily available checking and saving accounts. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and that mature within three months or less from the date of purchase. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.
· | Restricted cash |
The Company maintains restricted cash accounts held with financial institutions in the PRC, which are pledged as collateral for short-term bank borrowing that will be expired or matured in the next twelve months.
· | Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest, which are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from completion of service. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, the customer credit-worthiness and their payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectibility. At the end of fiscal year, the Company specifically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company will consider the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of June 30, 2018, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.

· | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Expected useful life | |||
Service vehicle | 8 years |
Expenditure for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $14,100 and $4,928, as part of cost of revenue, respectively.
Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $34,235 and $9,917, as part of cost of revenue, respectively.
· | Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. There has been no impairment charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
· | Revenue recognition |
ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company derives its revenues from the rendering of transportation services and recognizes in full upon completion of delivery to the receiver’s location. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
· | identify the contract with a customer; |
· | identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
· | determine the transaction price; |
· | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and |
· | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |

· | Comprehensive income |
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
· | Income taxes |
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of June 30, 2018, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The Company conducts the majority of its businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by a foreign tax authority.
· | Finance leases |
Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the four criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value. At the inception of a finance lease, the Company as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to the Company, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with the Company’s depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to the Company. The periodic rent payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 835-30, “Imputation of Interest”.
· | Net loss per share |
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

· | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar ("US$"). The Company's subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the PRC maintain their books and records in their local currency, Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$") and Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is the functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from its reporting currencies into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective year:
June 30, 2018 | June 30, 2017 | |||||||
Period-end HK$:US$1 exchange rate | 7.80 | 7.80 | ||||||
Average period HK$:US$1 exchange rate | 7.80 | 7.80 | ||||||
Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 6.58 | – | ||||||
Average period RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 6.34 | – |
· | Related parties |
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
· | Segment reporting |
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. For the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company operates in two reportable operating segments in the Hong Kong and the PRC. The Company anticipated the new segment in car trading business in the PRC during the first quarter of this fiscal year.
· | Fair value of financial instruments |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding short-term bank borrowing and note payable): cash and cash equivalents, accounts and retention receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax payable, amount due to a related party, other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2018
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
(Unaudited)
Management believes, based on the current market prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of short-term bank borrowings and note payable approximate the carrying amount.
The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820-10"), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
· | Level 1: Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets; |
· | Level 2: Inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs; and |
· | Level 3: Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models. |
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
· | Recent accounting pronouncements |
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires the recognition of assets and liabilities arising from lease transactions on the balance sheet and the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. Accordingly, a lessee will recognize a lease asset for its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability for the corresponding lease obligation. Both the asset and liability will initially be measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Subsequent measurement, including the presentation of expenses and cash flows, will depend on the classification of the lease as either finance or an operating lease. Initial costs directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the lease will be included in the asset. Lessees will also be required to provide additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company will adopt ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires restricted cash to be presented with cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows and disclosure of how the statement of cash flows reconciles to the balance sheet if restricted cash is shown separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted the ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2017.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business to provide additional guidance with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses.

(Unaudited)
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard amends various aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The most significant impact to our consolidated financial statements relates to the recognition and measurement of equity investments at fair value with changes recognized in Net income. The amendment also updates certain presentation and disclosure requirements. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is expected to increase volatility in net income as changes in the fair value of available-for-sale equity investments and changes in observable prices of equity investments without readily determinable fair values will be recorded in net income.
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method. This guidance supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company updated its accounting policy for the new standard based on a detailed review of its business and contracts. Based on the new guidance, the Company continues to recognize revenue at a point in time for the majority of its contracts with customers, which is generally when products are either shipped or delivered. Therefore, the adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting as an amendment and update expanding the scope of Topic 718. The amendment specifies that Topic 718 now applies to all share-based payment transactions, even non-employee awards, in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. Under the new guidance, awards to nonemployees are measured on the grant date, rather than on the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date at which the nonemployee’s performance is complete. Also, the awards would be measured by estimating the fair value of the equity instruments to be issued, rather than the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever can be measured more reliably. In addition, entities may use the expected term to measure nonemployee awards or elect to use the contractual term as the expected term, on an award-by-award basis. The new guidance is effective for the Company in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
NOTE - 4 GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has experienced a net loss of $456,985 and negative operating cash flows of $210,001 for the period ended June 30, 2018. Also, at June 30, 2018, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $586,090.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern through June 30, 2019 is dependent upon the continued financial support from its stockholders. Management believes the Company is currently pursuing additional financing for its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

(Unaudited)
(d) Interest rate risk
As the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Company’s interest-rate risk arises from borrowing under notes and bank borrowings. The Company manages interest rate risk by varying the issuance and maturity dates variable rate debt, limiting the amount of variable rate debt, and continually monitoring the effects of market changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2018, borrowings under related party notes were at fixed rates and short-term bank borrowings were at variable rates.
(e) | Exchange rate risk |
The reporting currency of the Company is US$, to date the majority of the revenues and costs are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as its revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB. If RMB depreciates against US$, the value of RMB revenues and assets as expressed in US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to substantial market risk.
(f) | Economic and political risks |
Some of the Company's operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.
The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Overview
We are a Hong Kong based specialty commercial logistic company and online to offline vehicle purchasing platform. Our specialty commercial logistic company operates through Lee Tat Transportation Int’l Limited, our wholly owned Hong Kong subsidiary (“Lee Tat”), and provide timely and reliable logistics and delivery services to commercial clients located in Hong Kong. We offer service to the cable supply industry in Hong Kong, and expect to provide small parcel delivery service in cities near Shanghai in the near future. Lee Tat was organized as a private limited liability company on August 11, 2014, in Hong Kong. We acquired Lee Tat on May 12, 2017.
Our online to offline (O2O) vehicle purchasing platform solution is offered through COSG Car International Limited, a Hong Kong private limited company (“Car International”) and Foshan Cosmos Xi Yue Car Rental Co. Ltd a wholly foreign owned entity (“WFOE”). Through our platform, we offer an online to offline loyalty membership program, which allows members to purchase competitively priced goods and services, with the intent of developing an ecosystem that will provide our members with discounted products and services relating to vehicle purchasing, leasing, and maintenance and other services. Concurrently, we also intend to build a business ecosystem from the big data obtained from our members and other participants of our O2O platform. Our current core product is future car purchasing services whereby we offer our customers the opportunity to purchase a car at a 3%-30% discount.
Effective July 15, 2018, our Board of Directors dismissed Huan-Ting Peng, our Chief Operating Officer and the statutory representative of our WFOE, from all of her positions with the company and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities. Miky Wan, our President, interim Chief Financial Officer and Director, was concurrently appointed to fill the vacancies created by Ms. Peng’s removal and to serve as our Chief Operating Officer and statutory representative of WFOE.
Concurrently with the dismissal of Ms. Peng, our Board of Directors also terminated that certain Car Rental Collaboration Agreement (the “Car Rental Collaboration Agreement”) with Foshan YY Car Rental Limited (“YY”), a vehicle sales and leasing company. Ms. Peng owns approximately 51%of YY and is an officer and executive director of YY.
With the dismissal of Ms. Peng and the termination of the Car Rental Collaboration Agreement, we are uncertain about our ability to continue to offer our core products of future car purchasing and investment vehicle leasing services services and memberships. If we are unable to offer our core products, our business plan of accessing the auto market in China and developing an ecosystem that will provide our members with discounted products and services relating to vehicle purchasing, leasing, and maintenance and other services may be materially and adversely affected. Management is reassessing its ability to proceed with its business plan and is now considering alternative options.

We do not have any current intention to further develop our logistics business segment at this time.
History
We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on August 14, 1987, under the name Shur De Cor, Inc. and engaged in developing certain mining claims. In April 1999, Shur De Cor merged with Interactive Marketing Technology, a New Jersey corporation that was engaged in the business of developing and direct marketing of consumer products. As the surviving company, Shur De Cor changed its name to Interactive Marketing Technology, Inc. Shur De Cor's then management resigned and the management of Interactive New Jersey became the Company’s management. The prior management of Shur De Cor retained Shur De Cor’s business and assets. After that acquisition, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, IMT's Plumber, Inc., produced, marketed, and sold a licensed product called the Plumber's Secret, which was discontinued in fiscal 2001. In May 2002, the Company ceased to actively pursue its product development and marketing business and actively sought to either acquire a third party, merge with a third party or pursue a joint venture with a third party in order to re-enter its former business of development and direct marketing of proprietary consumer products in the United States and worldwide.
On November 17, 2004, the Company acquired MPL, a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and its subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement executed by the parties (the “2004 Agreement”). In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued an aggregate of 109,623,006 shares of its common stock to Imperial International Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Imperial”), the sole shareholder of MPL, in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of MPL capital stock (the "2004 Share Exchange"). Upon completion of the share exchange, MPL became the Company's wholly owned subsidiary and the Company’s former owner transferred control of the Company to Imperial. The Company relied on Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), in regard to the shares that we issued pursuant to the 2004 Share Exchange. The Company treated this transaction as a qualified "business combination" as defined by Rule 501(d). The Company relied on the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and or Regulation D promulgated under, the Act in issuing the Company’s securities.
In connection with the 2004 Share Exchange, the Company: (i) changed its name from Interactive Marketing Technology, Inc. to China Artists Agency, Inc. ("China Artists"); (ii) obtained a new stock symbol, "CAAY", and CUSIP Number, effective on December 21, 2004; (iii) increased its authorized common stock to 200,000,000 shares; (iv) effectuated a 1 for 1.69 reverse stock split; and (v) spun off the Company’s existing business into a separate public company, All Star Marketing, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("All Star"). All Star was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Spin-off was satisfied by means of a pro-rata share dividend to the Company's shareholders of record as of December 10, 2004. The purpose of the Spin-Off was to allow the subsidiary to operate as a separate public company and raise working capital through the sale of its own equity. This allowed the Company’s management to focus on its business, while at the same time, allowing the spun-off company to have greater exposure by trading as an independent public company. Additionally, the shareholders and the market would then more easily identify the results and performance of the Company as a separate entity from that of All Star. In August 2005, the Company changed its name to China Entertainment Group, Inc. and, effective August 9, 2005, obtained a new stock symbol "CGRP", and CUSIP Number.
Because the Company failed to generate revenues in its new business, prior management commenced litigation in the Superior Court for Los Angeles County California which action was removed to the United States District Court for the Central District of California Case No. CV07-1068 GHK. On January 30, 2008, the parties entered into a Settlement Agreement and Conditional Release (the “Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company’s former management reacquired control of the Company and all assets related to the Chinese entertainment business were transferred out of the Company. The Company, under its former management, once again entered the business of locating products to develop and mass market. These efforts did not prove fruitful and the Company, while continuing its product development business, also began to seek another business to acquire.
Effective July 22, 2010, the Company merged with Safe and Secure TV Channel, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, the management of the Company resigned and was replaced by the management and principals of Safe and Secure TV Channel, LLC. The holders of interests in Safe and Secure TV Channel, LLC exchanged their interests for approximately 50.2% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company. In September 2010, the Company effectuated a 9.85 for one stock split to shareholders of record as of August 23, 2010. After the Merger, the Company became a television network and multimedia information and distribution company focused on serving the homeland security and emergency preparedness industry.

On February 15, 2016, the Company sold to Asia Cosmos Group Limited, a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands (“ACOSG”), 10,000,000 shares of its common stock at a per share price of $0.027. ACOSG’s sole shareholder is Miky Wan. The Company relied on the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Regulation D and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Act in selling the Company’s securities to ACOSG.
In connection with the private placement to ACOSG, a change of control occurred and Bryan Glass resigned from his position as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Chairman of the Company. Miky Wan was appointed to serve as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, President and Director, effective February 19, 2016. Peter Tong, our Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and director continued in his positions with the Company. Calvin K.W. Lai, Anthony H.H. Chan, Jenher Jeng, Alice K.M. Tang, Connie Y.M. Kwok were appointed to serve on our Board of Directors effective February 19, 2016. Effective February 26, 2016, the Company changed its name to Cosmos Group Holdings Inc. and filed a Certificate of Amendment to such effect with the Nevada Secretary of State. The name change and the related stock symbol change to “COSG” were approved by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority on March 31, 2016. The Company also increased the number of its authorized common stock, par value $0.001, from 90,000,0000 shares to 500,000,000 and its preferred stock, par value $0.001, from 10,000,000 to 30,000,000 shares. After the private placement, the Company shifted its business plan to focus on acquiring undervalued companies including those in the Greater China region.
On September 27, 2016, Peter Tong and Calvin Lai resigned from all of their positions with the Company. Connie Y.M. Kwok was appointed to serve as the Secretary and Miky Wan, our Chief Executive Officer, was appointed to serve as the interim Chief Financial Officer.
On January 13, 2017, the Company sold 200,000,000 shares of its common stock to ACOSG at a per share price of $0.001 per share for aggregate consideration of US $200,000. The Company relied on the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Regulation D and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Act in selling the Company’s securities to ACOSG.
Acquisition of Lee Tat, Our Logistics Business
On May 12, 2017, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Lee Tat from Mr. Koon Wing CHEUNG, Lee Tat’s sole shareholder, in exchange for 219,222,938 shares of our issued and outstanding common stock. In connection with the Lee Tat acquisition, Miky Wan resigned from her positions as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Koon Wing CHEUNG and Yongwei HU were appointed to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively, and also as our directors. The Company relied on the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Regulation D and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Act in selling the Company’s securities to the shareholders of Lee Tat.
Our O2O Vehicle Sales and Leasing Platform Solution
Our original business plan was to develop an ecosystem to address the entire vehicle purchasing, leasing and maintenance process. Our core product and services consisted of the following:
· | Future Car Purchasing Services: Members of our online ecosystem and nonmembers have the opportunity to purchase a car at a 3%-30% discount. The degree of discount will vary based upon the make and number of vehicles selected. |
· | Investment Vehicle Leasing Services: we facilitate the purchase and lease of one or more vehicles on behalf of investors who purchase vehicles for the purpose of leasing it to third parties; and |
· | Membership Program: Members have the opportunity to purchase vehicles at competitive prices and an attractive package of benefits, including discount insurance products, car accessories, maintenance services, and access to our vehicle resale platform. |
Our former cooperation partner, Foshan YY Car Rental Limited (“YY”), was an integral part of our ability to offer future car purchasing services and investment vehicle leasing services. Effective July 15, 2018, our Board of Directors dismissed Huan-Ting Peng, our Chief Operating Officer and the statutory representative of our WFOE, from all of her positions with the company and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities. Miky Wan, our President, interim Chief Financial Officer and Director, was concurrently appointed to fill the vacancies created by Ms. Peng’s removal and to serve as our Chief Operating Officer and statutory representative of WFOE. Concurrently with the dismissal of Ms. Peng, our Board of Directors also terminated the Car Rental Collaboration Agreement with YY. Ms. Peng owns approximately 51%of YY and is an officer and executive director of YY.

Logistics Segment
We expect to continue to focus on providing express delivery and logistic services to cable and data equipment suppliers in Hong Kong and mainland China. We anticipate focusing on business to business marketing, cold callings or attending local chamber of commerce events to obtain customers. In the near future, we expect to focus on consolidating our Hong Kong and Shanghai operations. We will sustain and consolidate the existing business in Hong Kong, and the branch in Hong Kong will also support our Shanghai client (Yunda) and the Suzhou office for cross border logistic and delivery. We do not have any current intention to further develop our logistics business segment at this time.
O2O Platform Segment
We attract customers from our internal marketing efforts, business relationships of our executive management team, and through cooperation partners such as XYY and other small car stores in Foshan. Effective February 9, 2018, we, through our wholly foreign owned enterprise in China (COSG WFOE), entered into a COSG Car APP Promotion and Membership Management Collaboration Agreement (the “Car APP Agreement”) with Foshan Shen Fan Technology Limited (“Foshan Shen Fan”), an O2O servicing company. Pursuant to the Car APP Agreement, Foshan Shen Fan agreed to promote the registration and sales of memberships on behalf of COSG, with the goal of achieving 100,000,000 registered COSG Car APP members. COSG agreed to provide its Car APP designed for use by COSG vehicle members and after-app customer service and operating environment. COSG agreed to pay Foshan Shen Fan certain fees which are more fully set forth in the Car APP Agreement. The collaboration expires in 2019.
Effective February 9, 2018, we, through COSG WFOE, also entered into an E-commerce Strategic Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with Foshan Shen Fan. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, Foshan Shen Fan agreed to build and operate an online ecommerce store for the sale of cars, which e-store will be accessed through T-Mall, Foshan’s Alibaba China Station account. COSG agreed to pay Foshan Shen Fan certain fees which are more fully set forth in the Cooperation Agreement.
In light of the dismissal of Ms. Peng and termination of the Car Rental Collaboration Agreement, we are assessing the future of these collaboration and cooperation arrangements.

We have a delivery operations team in Hong Kong consisting of two trucks, two drivers, and three network partners that pick up stocks for us and complete the delivery process. Generally, we are not a party to any long-term agreements with our customers. From time to time, we may enter into long term contracts similar to the Transportation Service with major customers and subcontract the performance of the performance of the contract to corresponding network partner according to the price and area.
Major Network Partners.
All of our major vendors are located in Hong Kong. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, one vendor, Po Won Transportation Company Limited, represented more than 10% of the Company’s operating cost. This vendor accounted for 14% of the Company’s operating cost amounting to $47,258 with $0 of accounts payable.
All of our major vendors are located in Hong Kong. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, one vendor, Tak Lee Transportation Company, represented more than 10% of the Company’s operating costs. This vendor accounted for 18% of the Company’s operating costs amounting to $20,775 with $0 of accounts payable.
Effective July 15, 2018, our Board of Directors dismissed Huan-Ting Peng, our Chief Operating Officer and the statutory representative of our WFOE, from all of her positions with the company and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities. Concurrently with the dismissal of Ms. Peng, our Board of Directors also terminated the Car Rental Collaboration Agreement with YY. Ms. Peng owns approximately 51% of YY and is an officer and executive director of YY. With the dismissal of Ms. Peng and the termination of the Car Rental Collaboration Agreement, we are uncertain about our ability to continue to offer our core product of future car purchasing and investment vehicle leasing services and memberships. If we are unable to offer our core products, our business plan of accessing the auto market in China and develop an ecosystem that will provide our members with discounted products and services relating to vehicle purchasing, leasing, and maintenance and other services may be materially and adversely affected. Management is reassessing its ability to proceed with its business and is now considering alternative options.
Seasonality.
Our logistics business is highly dependent upon the e-commerce industry in Hong Kong and China. In Hong Kong and China, we experience peak demand for our services during the double eleven festival and the Chinese New Year celebrations.
Our car sales business was highly correlated with China’s economic cycle, having its low season during Chinese Lunar New Year.
Insurance.
We maintain certain insurance in accordance customary industry practices in the jurisdiction where we operate. Under Hong Kong law it is a requirement that all employers in the city must purchase Employee's Compensation Insurance to cover their liability in the event that their staff suffers an injury or illness during the normal course of their work. Lee Tat maintains Employee’s Compensation Insurance, vehicle insurance and third party risks insurance for the business purposes.
Reverse Stock Split
Effective February 6, 2018, we engaged in a 1:20 reverse split of our common stock so that each twenty shares of issued and outstanding common stock were exchanged for one share.

Results of Operations
We reported a net loss of $456,985 and $49,680 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and2017, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, our current assets and current liabilities were $10,833,864 and $11,583,796, respectively.

Our auditors have prepared our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon improving our profitability and the continuing financial support from our stockholders. Management believes that the continuing financial support from the existing shareholders and external financing will provide the additional cash to meet our obligations as they become due. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

Going Concern Uncertainties
Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon improving our profitability and the continuing financial support from our stockholders.

While we believe that we will obtain external financing and the existing shareholders will continue to provide the additional cash to meet our obligations as they become due, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such additional capital resources on satisfactory terms. We believe that our current cash and other sources of liquidity discussed below are adequate to support operations for at least the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management's current judgments. We believe the following accounting policies are critical in the preparation of our financial statements.
27 |
· | Basis of consolidation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of COSG and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
· | Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest, which are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from completion of service. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, the customer credit-worthiness and their payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectibility. At the end of fiscal year, the Company specifically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company will consider the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of June 30, 2018, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.
· | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Expected useful life | ||||
Service vehicle | 8 years |
Expenditure for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $14,100 and $4,928, as part of cost of revenue, respectively.
Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $34,235 and $9,917, as part of cost of revenue, respectively.
· | Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. There has been no impairment charge for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
28 |
· | Revenue recognition |
ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company derives its revenues from the rendering of transportation services and recognizes in full upon completion of delivery to the receiver’s location. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
· | identify the contract with a customer; | ||||
· | identify the performance obligations in the contract; | ||||
· | determine the transaction price; | ||||
· | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and | ||||
· | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |
· | Income taxes |
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of June 30, 2018, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The Company conducts the majority of its businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by a foreign tax authority.
· | Finance leases |
Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the four criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value. At the inception of a finance lease, the Company as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to the Company, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with the Company’s depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to the Company. The periodic rent payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 835-30, “Imputation of Interest”.
29 |
· | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar ("US$"). The Company's subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the PRC maintain their books and records in their local currency, Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$") and Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is the functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from its reporting currencies into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective year:
June 30, 2018 | June 30, 2017 | |||||||
Period-end HK$:US$1 exchange rate | 7.80 | 7.80 | ||||||
Average period HK$:US$1 exchange rate | 7.80 | 7.80 | ||||||

· | Related parties |
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
· | Segment reporting |
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. For the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company operates in two reportable operating segments in the Hong Kong and the PRC. The Company anticipated the new segment in car trading business in the PRC during the first quarter of this fiscal year.
· | Fair value of financial instruments |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding short-term bank borrowing and finance lease): cash and cash equivalents, accounts and retention receivable, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax payable, amount due to a related party, other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Management believes, based on the current market prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of short-term bank borrowings and note payable approximate the carrying amount.

The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820-10"), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
· | Level 1: Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets; |
· | Level 2: Inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs; and |
· | Level 3: Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models. |
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
· | Recent accounting pronouncements |
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires the recognition of assets and liabilities arising from lease transactions on the balance sheet and the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. Accordingly, a lessee will recognize a lease asset for its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability for the corresponding lease obligation. Both the asset and liability will initially be measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Subsequent measurement, including the presentation of expenses and cash flows, will depend on the classification of the lease as either finance or an operating lease. Initial costs directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the lease will be included in the asset. Lessees will also be required to provide additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company will adopt ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires restricted cash to be presented with cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows and disclosure of how the statement of cash flows reconciles to the balance sheet if restricted cash is shown separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted the ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2017.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business to provide additional guidance with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company early adopted the ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2017.
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard amends various aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The most significant impact to our consolidated financial statements relates to the recognition and measurement of equity investments at fair value with changes recognized in Net income. The amendment also updates certain presentation and disclosure requirements. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is expected to increase volatility in net income as changes in the fair value of available-for-sale equity investments and changes in observable prices of equity investments without readily determinable fair values will be recorded in net income.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method. This guidance supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company updated its accounting policy for the new standard based on a detailed review of its business and contracts. Based on the new guidance, the Company continues to recognize revenue at a point in time for the majority of its contracts with customers, which is generally when products are either shipped or delivered. Therefore, the adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting as an amendment and update expanding the scope of Topic 718. The amendment specifies that Topic 718 now applies to all share-based payment transactions, even non-employee awards, in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. Under the new guidance, awards to nonemployees are measured on the grant date, rather than on the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date at which the nonemployee’s performance is complete. Also, the awards would be measured by estimating the fair value of the equity instruments to be issued, rather than the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever can be measured more reliably. In addition, entities may use the expected term to measure nonemployee awards or elect to use the contractual term as the expected term, on an award-by-award basis. The new guidance is effective for the Company in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, subject to limitations as noted below, as of June 30, 2018, and during the period prior to and including the date of this report, were effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Inherent Limitations
Because of its inherent limitations, our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Subject to the foregoing disclosure, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
