(Unaudited)
1. | ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS |

Vitaxel SDN BHD (“VitaxelSB”), was incorporated in Malaysia on August 10, 2012. VitaxelSB is primarily engaged in the direct selling industry utilizing a multi-level marketing model with an emphasis on travel, entertainment and lifestyle products and services.
Vitaxel Online Mall SDN BHD (“Vionmall”), was incorporated in Malaysia on September 22, 2015. Vionmall is primarily in developing online shopping platforms geared to the Company and its members and the third-party suppliers of products and services.
2. | UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information under Article 8 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and foot notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those audited consolidated financial statements included in Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of June 30, 2022, results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire fiscal year.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
On March 28, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01,1 which clarifies the guidance in ASC 8152 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets. The ASU amends the guidance in ASU 2017-123 that, among other things, established the “last-of-layer” method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible by allowing the entities to apply the portfolio layer method to portfolios of all financial assets, including both prepayable and non-prepayable financial assets. ASU 2022-01’s amendments are effective for public business entities, fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) did not, or are not believed by management, to have a material impact on the Company’s present and future consolidated financial statements.
3. | GOING CONCERN |
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
For the period ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported a net loss of $ and had negative working capital of $4,646,305. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,754,967 as of June 30, 2022 due to the fact that the Company incurred losses during the years prior to June 30, 2022.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon improving the profitability and the continuing financial support from its stockholders or other capital sources. Management believes that the continuing financial support from the existing shareholders or external debt financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. While the extent of the impact is unknown, the pandemic may hinder the Company’s operation and ability to raise financing and carry out its business plan due to uncertain capital markets, increased government regulations and other unanticipated factors.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We presently have approximately 5,700 total members. As of June 30, 2022, approximately: 62.3% of our members reside in Malaysia, 28.9% of our members reside in Singapore, 3.7% members reside in China, approximately 2.7% members reside in Hong Kong and approximately 2.4% members reside in other countries.
Impact of Current Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic on the Company
We have experienced and are continuing to experience significant disruptions to our business operations due to circumstances related to COVID-19. The government-imposed quarantines, office closings, travel restrictions negatively impacted our business operations, as specifically related to the travel, entertainment and lifestyle industry.
Specifically, our multi-level marketing (“MLM”) business is negatively impacted due to the fact that being a business built on fostering personal relationship and expanding new contacts, most distributors are unable to carry out the more important aspects of regular face to face visits and appointments, promotional events and direct coaching to continuously improve their team’s skills, motivation and knowledge of our products. Fortunately, we are still able to connect to our leaders via calls, emails and different forms of announcement using an online communication such as Skype and Zoom to keep the leaders and members abreast with our status and development. As such, our MLM operation is still ongoing, however, slower than usual. Until the countries in South Asia and in Europe allow foreign visitors to travel without restrictions, we anticipate continuing of these significant disruptions which reduces our revenue.
In the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 29, 2022, we provided an update that the Malaysian Government issued a National Recovery Plan to cater for both the pandemic period and post-pandemic period. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the National Recovery Plan, which basically spells out 4 different phases of control order, is still in effect; Although to date, many restrictions have been lifted, the Company is still uncertain of the effect of the post-pandemic, where the Company may still expect long-term disruptions on its existing operations.

The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon improving the profitability and the continuing financial support from its stockholders or other capital sources. Management believes that the continuing financial support from the existing shareholders or external debt financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons.
