NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Organization and Operations
Focus Universal Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 4, 2012 (“Inception”). From inception through May 1, 2016, Focus Universal Inc. offered a full range of web services, including web marketing services, social and viral marketing campaigns, search engine optimization consulting, custom web design, website usability consulting and web analytics implementation. Starting in January, 2016, we have been selling electrical handheld sensor systems as well as filters for commercial gardening. Effective May 1, 2016, we will no longer be offering Internet marketing services to small businesses because we are going to use our expertise and resources to sell our own products internally. In addition, we are going to directly hire internal employees who know digital marketing, search engine optimization, social media marketing, and e-commerce.
Change in Control
On December 29, 2014, Xu Tang and Desheng Wang, two non-affiliate persons, acquired 5,970,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock from the Company’s shareholders. This represents over 90% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and therefore represents a change in control of the Company’s ownership.
Effective immediately on December 29, 2014, Ms. Popova resigned as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company and Ms. Ignatenko resigned as Treasurer, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, principal accounting officer, and principal financial officer of the Company. Upon such resignations, Desheng Wang was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the Company, Xu Tang was appointed as the President of the Company, Yan Chen was appointed as the Senior Vice President, and Messrs. Wang, Tang, and Chen accepted such appointments.
On October 21, 2015, Xu Tang entered into a stock purchase agreement whereby he collectively sold 3,260,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to eight persons using private funds to purchase the shares. This represents 49.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and represents a material change in control of the Company’s ownership. Buyers include eight unrelated persons. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no arrangements or understandings among members of both the former and new control groups and their associates with respect to election of directors or other matters.
Effective October 21, 2015, Xu Tang and Yan Chen resigned from their positions as President and Senior Vice President, respectively, of the Company. There are no disagreements between the Company and Messrs. Tang and Chen. Dr. Edward Lee has been appointed to serve as President of the Company.
Also effective October 21, 2015, Dr. Jennifer Gu and Dr. Edward Lee were appointed as directors of the Company, and Dr. Gu and Dr. Lee accepted such appointments. Thereupon, each of Xu Tang and Yan Chen resigned as directors of the Company. Accordingly, the entire Board of Directors consists of Dr. Desheng Wang, Dr. Jennifer Gu, and Dr. Edward Lee.
On December 31, 2015, we filed Articles of Merger with the State of Nevada and filed a Certificate of Merger with the State of California which were the result of an agreement entered into on December 30, 2015, with a related party, Perfecular Inc., (“Perfecular”) a California corporation and FCUV Acquisition Corp., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding of 587,712 shares of Perfecular’s common stock in exchange for the issuance of 27,994,706 shares of the Company’s common stock to the shareholders of Perfecular Inc. in an exchange ratio of 47.6333 to one. This represents approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of the Company and represents a material change in control of the Company’s ownership.
Perfecular Inc. was found in September 2009 and is headquartered in City of Industry, California, and is engaged in designing certain electronic products and sales of broad selection of garden equipment in North America and Europe.
Change in fiscal year
On December 11, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a change in the fiscal year end on March 31 to a calendar year end on December 31 effective immediately.
The Company expects to make the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and will not adjust operating results for prior periods. The change to the Company’s fiscal year will not impact the Company’s calendar year results for the year ended December 31, 2015. While the change will have some impact on the prior year comparability of each of the fiscal quarters and annual periods in fiscal years prior to calendar year 2016 in future filings, the Company expects this impact will be minimal.
The Company believes this change will provide numerous benefits, including aligning its reporting periods to be more consistent with peer companies.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Focus Universal Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Perfecular Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Segment Reporting
The Company currently has one operating segment. In accordance with ASC No. 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280’), the Company considers operating segments to be components of the Company’s business for which separate financial information is available that evaluated regularly by the Management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Management reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocation resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reportable segment.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2015 and notes thereto contained in the information as part of the Company’s Annual Report on the Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2016.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. At times, such investments may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by investing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820- 10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques, used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
· | Level 1: quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
· | Level 2: pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
· | Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalent, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
It is not however practical to determine the fair value of advances from stockholders, if any, due to their related party nature.
Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of electronic components, and are valued at the lower of cost or market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from three to seven years on all categories of depreciable assets. The cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or retired are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is included in earnings. Maintenance and repairs are expensed currently. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Long-term assets of the Company are reviewed when circumstances warrant as to whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company derives its revenues from sales contracts with its customer with revenues being generated upon rendering of services. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via invoice; service is considered provided when the service is delivered to the customers; and the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the purchase order and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or volume incentive.
Perfecular reports net revenue for its facilitated sales to third parties in accordance to the Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standards Codification 605-45, because its primary business functions are marketing and sales of Tianjin Guanglee’s, (a related party) products. Perfecular does not carry any inventory. While Tianjin Guanglee determines the product specifications and the sales prices, and bears physical loss risks during shipping. Perfecular collects full amount of accounts receivable from customers through direct wire transfers and remits payments to Tianjin Guanglee with amounts net of the sales commissions. Commission revenue is recognized when the sales booked by Perfecular is recognized.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company's estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company's estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. There was $293 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company recorded $874 and $0 of advertising costs for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs primarily consist of efforts to refine existing product models and develop new product models.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include: a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly Influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the consolidated financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
F-7 |
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Commitments and Contingencies (continued)
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to non-employees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable.
No stock based compensation was issued or outstanding as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Income Tax Provision
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing certain income, expense and credit items for financial reporting purposes and tax reporting purposes. Such deferred income taxes primarily relate to the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. There were no material deferred tax assets or liabilities as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not identify any material uncertain tax positions.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement, stock options or warrants.
There were no potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments issued and outstanding at any time during the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
Cash Flows Reporting
The Company adopted paragraph 230-10-45-24 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period pursuant to paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Subsequent Events
The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company will evaluate subsequent events through the date when the financial statements were issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU 2016-02 – Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.
There were other updates recently issued. The Company does not believe that other than disclosed above, the recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Use of estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management makes assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience and on our expectations that are believed to be reasonable. The combination of these factors forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from our current estimates and those differences may be material.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This item contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about our industry, management beliefs, and certain assumptions made by our management. Words such as "anticipates", "expects", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates", variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict; therefore, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in any such forward-looking statements. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. However, readers should carefully review the risk factors set forth herein and in other reports and documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly the Report on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.
Narrative Description of the Business
Focus Universal Inc. (“the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) currently conducts business as an online marketing and advertising provider and sells handheld sensor systems and filters wholesaler to distribution platforms. We are working on developing a universal sensor node and gateway system that use the data processing capabilities of a smartphone to display readings of multiple probe modules. We are also researching the development of an anti-counterfeit authentication technology that we believe could address the problem of counterfeit production by attempting to authenticate consumer goods.
The information obtained on or accessible through the Company’s website is not incorporated into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and you may not consider it a part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. On December 29, 2014, Xu Tang and Desheng Wang, two non-affiliates, acquired over 90% of the Company. That same date, the current officers and directors, Ms. Tatyana Popova resigned as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company and Ms. Elena Ignatenko resigned as Treasurer, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, principal accounting officer, and principal financial officer of the Company. Upon such resignations, Desheng Wang was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the Company, Xu Tang was appointed as the President of the Company, Yan Chen was appointed as the Senior Vice President, and Messrs. Wang, Tang, and Chen accepted such appointments.
On October 21, 2015 Xu Tang entered into a stock purchase agreement whereby he collectively sold 3,260,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to eight unrelated persons using private funds to purchase the shares. This represented at the time 49.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and represented a material change in control of the Company’s ownership.
To the Company’s best knowledge, there are no arrangements or understandings among members of both the former and new control groups and their associates with respect to election of directors or other matters.
Effective as of October 21, 2015, Xu Tang and Yan Chen resigned from their positions as President and Senior Vice President, respectively, of the Company. There are no disagreements between the Company and Messrs. Tang and Chen. Dr. Edward Lee has been appointed to serve as President of the Company.
Also effective as of October 21, 2015, Dr. Jennifer Gu and Dr. Edward Lee were appointed as directors of the Company, and Dr. Gu and Dr. Lee accepted such appointments. Thereupon, each of Xu Tang and Yan Chen resigned as directors of the Company. Accordingly, effective as of the 10th day after the accompanying Information Statement is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and transmitted to the shareholders of the Company, each of Dr. Jennifer Gu and Dr. Edward Lee would become members of the Board of Directors, and the entire Board of Directors would consist of Dr. Desheng Wang, Dr. Jennifer Gu, and Dr. Edward Lee.

Through this quarter, we generated our revenue from providing services that include marketing, advertising and website design to small businesses. Through a merger with Perfecular Inc., we strategically expanded our business to the manufacture and marketing of high-tech electronic devices. We realized that Internet marketing would not be sufficient to generate sales of our products, particularly the Ubiquitor product. We are going to focus on .all types of marketing, particularly marketing directly to established consumer distributions retailers. For this reason, during this quarter we decided to emphasize our sales of handheld sensors and air filters and reduce our marketing and advertising business segment. Through the development and creation of our Ubiquitor device, we anticipate that sales and marketing involved with bringing this product to market will require us to hire a number of new employees in order to gain traction in the market as well as continue to expand such sales of our existing sensor and air filter products. As of May 1, 2016, we will no longer be offering Internet marketing services to small businesses because we are going to use our expertise and resources to sell our own products internally. In addition, we are going to directly hire employees who have expertise in digital marketing, search engine optimization, social media marketing and e-commerce and business to business sales. Although we are still negotiating with MorePro Marketing, our third party consultant, and may possibly use their services in the future, we allowed our monthly contract with them to expire on April 30, 2016. We believe having experience in-house will be more cost-effective than paying an outside consultant.
Our current services included:
Marketing
During the period in question, we offered online marketing services including; search engine optimization; network affiliate marketing; pay per click campaign management; and conversion rate optimization.
Scientific Instrument Research and Development and Sales
During the period in question, we also, through our merger with Perfecular Inc., entered into the scientific instrument industry. Engineers and scientists use instrumentation to observe, understand, and manage real-world data and phenomena, events, and processes related to their industries or areas of expertise. Instrumentation systems measure and control electrical signals, such as voltage, current and power, as well as temperature, pressure, speed, flow, volume, torque, light sensing, and vibration for example. Common general-purpose instruments include, for example, voltmeters, signal generators, oscilloscopes, data loggers, spectrum analyzers, cameras, and temperature and pressure monitors and controllers.
Systems that perform measurement and control can be generally categorized as test, measurement, and embedded systems. These systems access real-world phenomena and are used throughout the research, design, manufacture, and service phases of a wide variety of products and applications.
Historically, consumers, including engineers and scientists, have used a variety of high-cost systems that operated independently and could be difficult to customize. Due to the limitations of these systems, adapting them to changing needs can be expensive and time consuming, and users must often purchase multiple single-purpose instruments, controllers, loggers, and other peripherals.
Our Approach to Measurement and Sensing
We offer a different approach that links handheld devices and sensors with common smartphone computing power through an application on the smartphone in both IOS and Android devices. Tapping into the computing power of a smartphone enables a measurement device to increase its capabilities.
We also offer an array of traditional handheld meters through our wholesale distribution platform.
Filter and Handheld Meter Wholesaler
We are a wholesaler of various filtration products and digital meters. We source our products from manufacturers in China and then sell to a major U.S. distributor who resells our products directly to consumers through retail distribution channels. Specifically, we sell the following products.
Fan Speed Adjuster device. We provide a fan speed adjuster device to retailers and distributors. Designed specifically for centrifugal fans with brushless motors, our adjuster device helps ensure longer life by preventing damage to fan motors by adjusting the speed of centrifugal fans without causing the motor to hum. These devices are rated for 350 watts max, have 120VAC voltage capacity and feature an internal, electronic auto-resetting circuit breaker.
Carbon filter devices. We also sell two types of carbon filter devices to distributors. These Carbon filter devices are professional grade filters specifically designed and used to filter air in greenhouses that might be polluted by fermenting organics. One of these filters can be attached to a centrifugal fan to scrub the air in a constant circle or can be attached to an exhaust line as a single pass filter, which moves air out of the growing area and filters unwanted odors and removes pollens, dust, and other debris in the air. The other filter is designed to be used with fans from 0-6000 C.F.M.
5 |
HEPA filtration device. We provide an organic air high efficiency particulate arrestance (“HEPA”) filtration device at wholesale prices to distributors and retailers. Manufactured, tested, certified, and labeled in accordance with current HEPA filter standards, this device is targeted towards greenhouses and grow rooms and designed to keep insects, bacteria, and mold out of grow rooms. We sell these devices in various sizes.
Digital light meter. We provide a handheld digital light meter that is used to measure luminance in fc units, or foot-candles. The meter we sell is designed to be full cosine corrected for the angular incidence of light (meaning if you are not holding the sensor perpendicular to the light source, the sensor will still read the light correctly). The meter has a built-in low battery indicator and is designed to accurately measure to 40,000 FC.
Quantum par meter. We provide a handheld quantum par meter used to measure photosynthetically active radiation (“PAR”). This fully portable handheld PAR meter is designed to measure PAR flux in wavelengths ranging from 400 to 700 nm. It is designed to measure up to 10,000 umol.
Ubiquitor Wireless Universal Sensor Device
We have fully researched and developed a device we call the “Ubiquitor,” which is a handheld fully modular system with a universal sensor node and gateway system that uses a smartphone as the output display module that displays the readings of various probe modules. We have completed an initial production run of 1,000 devices and intend to develop this into full-scale production as soon as possible. The Ubiquitor is a wireless sensor device that combines measuring tools with smartphone technology to quickly deliver sensor node data on desktop and mobile phone screens. The Ubiquitor’s sensor analytics system will integrate event-monitoring, storage and analytics software in a cohesive package that we hope will provide a holistic view of sensor data it is reading.
We manufactured the initial production run at our facilities here in the City of Industry, although we sent our circuit boards to China for soldering to an unaffiliated manufacturing facility. This initial production run will allow us to show large distributors and consumers the capabilities of our product which we hope will generate demand for our product.
The physical hardware consists of:
1. | The sensor probes, which come in hundreds of different varieties of sensor instruments in the form of a USB stick, with both male and female ports; and |
2. | The main hardware gateway, a small cell phone size device with integrated circuits. |
This device is intended to connect up to 2.5 kilometers of sensor instruments, and integrate data using embedded software to display the data and all analytics onto a digital screen (desktop or mobile displays) using multiple types of wireless connections (i.e., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G and 4G). Most types of probes can connect to the hardware. If the sensor size is bigger than the standard probe size, it is possible to simply use a USB cable to connect the probe and the hub. All data and analytics are displayed on a single screen, with tools that record and keep track of all measurements, and sort and display analytic information in easy to read charts.
The Ubiquitor is a general platform that collects data in real time, up to 100hz per second, and thus is intended to be adapted to many industry uses.
The Ubiquitor is a multipurpose wireless intelligent sensor device that will be intended to achieve universal compatibility. Currently, the Ubiquitor device could simultaneously accommodate more than 256 different types of sensor heads. Users could use their smartphones to simultaneously operate and monitor over 256 kinds of sensor readings. With Perfecular’s technology, users only need to obtain the sensor heads, facilitating ease and convenience of use. Using a smartphone, users can collect and analyze data in real time.
By using the smartphone as a substitute platform, we believe we will achieve the following efficiencies:
1. | Cut production costs. Smartphone technology will advance and become more widely used than the vast majority products on the small sensor device market. By utilizing smartphone technology, the Ubiquitor will add superior functionality and performance, vastly improving the product’s quality and cutting production costs from 70% to 90%. |
2. | Reduce the effort required to develop a new sensor product. With the Ubiquitor, we believe that there will be no need for device manufacturers to research and develop the new monitoring and operating components because they will just need to develop new sensor heads based on our software technology. |
3. | Reduce clutter. It is anticipated that the Ubiquitor dispenses with the hassle of hooking up cables, since it is based on wireless transmission of data. |

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.
Revenue, cost of sales and gross profit
Our consolidated gross revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016, was $84,387, compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Our cost of consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016, was $5,730 (March 31, 2015: $1,700) resulting in a gross profit of $78,657 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 (March 31, 2015 gross loss: $(1,700).
All of our consolidated revenues are derived primarily from sales of broad selection of garden equipment and secondarily from search engine optimization consulting, internet campaign planning and social media consulting. An independent third party contractor performed the web development since second quarter of 2015. The increase in revenue is primarily driven by the sales from Perfecular of $82,607. Since the acquisition of Perfecular on December 30, 2015, our revenues have increased and we believe that such revenues could continue to increase as we continue to market our products.
Prior to the merger with Perfecular, management was focused on pursuing growth strategies and opportunities and outsourced the performance of Internet marketing services to third parties rather than performing the Internet marketing services directly. This change in strategy cost more money and generated less immediate revenue. Post-merger, we have been able to distribute a full range of products held as inventory by a related party, Tianjin Guanglee, directly to a range of businesses who have established distribution channels directly with consumers.
Operating Costs and Expenses
The major components of our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are outlined in the table below:

Due to the merger with Perfecular, Inc. we anticipate that for the next 12 months we will be generating cash from more diversified revenue streams as mentioned under Narrative Description of the Business. We believe that our cash generated from operations and cash on hand may not provide sufficient capital to fund our operations and meet our cash needs on a short term and long-term basis for the next twelve months. Consequently, we intend to finance our internal growth with cash on hand, cash provided from operations, borrowings, debt or equity offerings, or some combination thereof to expand our business so that we can meet our cash needs.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
The net cash outflows from operating activities of $146,505 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily the result of our net loss of $115,804 and changes in our operating assets and liabilities. The net cash outflows from operating activities of $42,131 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily the result of our net loss of $35,571, and changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
We expect that cash flows from operating activities may fluctuate in future periods as a result of a number of factors, including fluctuations in our net revenues and operating results, utilization of new revenue streams, collection of accounts receivable, and timing of billings and payments.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
The net cash used in investing activities of $1,029 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 represents funds used to purchase property and equipment for the Company.
We did not generate or use any cash from investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities
We repaid $63,369 related to advances from a related party and $19,533 to shareholders during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we borrowed $100,000 and $20,000 from a shareholder and an related-party entity, which is under common management and control, respectively for working capital.
Management expects to keep operating costs to a minimum until cash is available through financing or operating activities. Management plans to continue to seek, in addition to equity financing, other sources of financing (e.g. bank loan, line of credit, shareholder loan) on favorable terms; however, there are no assurances that any such financing can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all. If we are unable to generate profits sufficient to cover our operating costs or unable to obtain additional funds for our working capital needs, we may need to cease or curtail operations. Furthermore, there is no assurance the net proceeds from any successful financing arrangement will be sufficient to cover cash requirements during the initial stages of the Company’s operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a15(e) and 15d15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.
Our management concluded we did not maintain effective controls over the Company’s financial reporting. The material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, caused principally by inadequate staffing and technical expertise in key positions, resulted in overly relying on outside consultants to make numerous adjustments to our financial statements. Additionally, the significant deficiencies or material weaknesses could result in future material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Management has concluded that the identified control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity's disclosure objectives. The likelihood of achieving such objectives is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors or mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established process.
