GREENPRO CAPITAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2018
(In U.S. dollars, except share and per share data)
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Greenpro Capital Corp. (the “Company” or “GRNQ”) was incorporated on July 19, 2013 in the state of Nevada. The Company currently provides a wide range of business consulting and corporate advisory services including cross-border listing advisory services, tax planning, advisory and transaction services, record management services, and accounting outsourcing services. Our focus is on companies located in Asia and Southeast Asia including Hong Kong, Malaysia, China, Thailand, and Singapore. As part of our business consulting and corporate advisory business segment, Greenpro Venture Capital Limited provides a business incubator for start-up and high growth companies during their critical growth period, and focuses on investments in select start-up and high growth potential companies. In addition to our business consulting and corporate advisory business segment, we operate another business segment that focuses on the acquisition and rental of real estate properties held for investment and the acquisition and sale of real estate properties held for sale.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet information as of December 31, 2017 was derived from the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 13, 2018. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control, and entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.
At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the consolidated financial statements include noncontrolling interests related to the Company’s ownership of: 80% of Greenpro International Limited and Greenpro Property Development Limited (formerly known as Chief Billion Limited), 60% of Forward Win International Limited, Yabez (Hong Kong) Company Limited, Billion Sino Holdings Limited and Parich Wealth Management Limited, and 51% of Greenpro Capital Village Sdn Bhd.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $1,040,508 and used cash in operations of $743,954. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2017 financial statements, has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
7 |
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. On June 12, 2018, the Company sold 535,559 shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering at $6.00 per share for net proceeds of approximately $2.7 million, after deducting expenses of the offering. On July 18, 2018, the Company sold 906,666 shares of its common stock at $7.50 per share in a private placement for net proceeds of approximately $6.7 million. Despite the amount of funds that we have raised, no assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity financing.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to, among others, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, impairment analysis of real estate assets and other long term assets including goodwill, valuation allowance on deferred income taxes, the assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative liability, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were denominated in the following currencies at:

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, cash included funds held by employees of $18,712 and $32,673, respectively, and was held to facilitate payment of expenses in local currencies and to facilitate third-party online payment platforms in which the Company had not set up corporate accounts (WeChat Pay and Alipay).
Revenue recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts. The implementation of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
The Company’s revenue consists of revenue from providing business consulting and corporate advisory services (“service revenue”), revenue from the sale of real estate properties, and revenue from the rental of real estate properties.
8 |
Revenue from services
For certain of our service contracts providing assistance to clients in capital market listings (“Listing services”), our services provided are considered to be one performance obligation. Revenue and expenses are deferred until the performance obligation is complete and collectability of the consideration is probable. For service contracts where the performance obligation is not completed, deferred costs of revenue are recorded as incurred and deferred revenue is recorded for any payments received on such yet to be completed performance obligations. On an ongoing basis, management monitors these contracts for profitability and when needed may record a liability if a determination is made that costs will exceed revenue.
For other services such as company secretarial, accounting, financial analysis and related services (“Non-Listing services”), the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied, and the related revenue is recognized, as services are rendered. For contracts in which we act as an agent, the Company reports revenue net of expenses paid.
The Company offers no discounts, rebates, rights of return, or other allowances to clients which would result in the establishment of reserves against service revenue. Additionally, to date, the Company has not incurred incremental costs in obtaining a client contract. The adoption of ASU 606 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenue from the sale of real estate properties
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance of ASC 610-20, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”), which applies to sales or transfers to noncustomers of nonfinancial assets. Generally, the Company’s sales of its real estate properties is considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset. Under ASC 610-20, the Company derecognizes the asset and recognizes a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transfers to the buyer. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized revenue from the sale of one unit of its real estate property held for sale. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, there were no sales of real estate. The adoption of ASU 610-20 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenue from the rental of real estate properties
Rental revenue represents lease rental income from the Company’s tenants. The tenants pay monthly in accordance with lease agreements and the Company recognizes the income ratably over the lease term as this is the most representative of the pattern in which the benefit is expected to be derived from the underlying asset.
Cost of revenues
Cost of service revenue primarily consists of employee compensation and related payroll benefits, company formation costs, and other professional fees directly attributable to the services rendered.
Cost of real estate properties sold primarily consists of the purchase price of property, legal fees, improvement costs to the building structure, and other acquisition costs. Selling and advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Cost of rental revenue primarily includes costs associated with repairs and maintenance, property insurance, depreciation and other related administrative costs. Property management fees and utility expenses are paid directly by tenants.

Equity-method investments
Investments in non-controlled entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the non-controlled entities’ operating and financial policies are accounted for under the equity-method. Under the equity-method, the investment in the non-controlled entity is initially recognized at cost and subsequently adjusted to reflect the Company’s share of the entity’s income (losses), any dividends received by the Company and any other-than-temporary impairments. Investments accounted for under the equity-method are included in other investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. At each reporting date, the Company reviews its convertible securities to determine that their classification is appropriate.
Income (loss) per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus any potentially dilutive shares related to the issuance of shares from stock warrants. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the dilutive impact of warrants exercisable into 53,556 shares of common stock have been excluded because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, there were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding.

Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s operating subsidiaries maintain their books and records in their respective functional currency, which consists of the Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR”), Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), and Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”).
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$ 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 a foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from the local currencies of the Company into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
As
of and for the nine months ended September 30, | ||||||||
2018 | 2017 | |||||||
Period-end MYR : US$1 exchange rate | 4.14 | 4.22 | ||||||
Period-average MYR : US$1 exchange rate | 3.99 | 4.33 | ||||||
Period-end RMB : US$1 exchange rate | 6.87 | 6.65 | ||||||
Period-average RMB : US$1 exchange rate | 6.53 | 6.79 | ||||||
Period-end / average HK$ : US$1 exchange rate | 7.75 | 7.75 |
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 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 : Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; |
● | Level 2 : Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
● | Level 3 : Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions |
As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s balance sheet included the fair value of derivative liabilities of $189,069 which were based on Level 2 measurements.
The Company believes the carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other investments, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, deferred costs of revenue, deferred revenue, and due to related parties, approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Concentrations of risks
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, no customer accounted for 10% or more of revenues or accounts receivable at period-end.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, no vendor accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s cost of revenues, or accounts payable at period-end.

Economic and political risks
Substantially all of the Company’s services are conducted in the Asian region, primarily in Hong Kong, Malaysia, and the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). Among other risks, the Company’s operations in Malaysia are subject to the risks of restrictions on transfer of funds; export duties, quotas, and embargoes; domestic and international customs and tariffs; changing taxation policies; foreign exchange restrictions; and political conditions and governmental regulations in Malaysia.
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 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.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update will require the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For operating leases, the asset and liability will be expensed over the lease term on a straight-line basis, with all cash flows included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability will be recognized separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income and the repayment of the principal portion of the lease liability will be classified as a financing activity while the interest component will be included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, leases will be recognized and measured at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, which allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period the new lease standard is adopted and will not require restatement of prior periods. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statements of cash flows. The Company adopted the guidance of ASU No. 2016-18 on January 1, 2018 and there was no effect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10) - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 provides guidance on how entities measure certain equity investments and present changes in the fair value. This standard requires that entities measure certain equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company adopted the guidance of ASU No. 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 and there was no effect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

NOTE 2 – RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 have been restated. On March 15, 2018, our management determined the following:
● | that the Company’s method of recognizing revenue on service contracts was erroneously accounted for when billed. | |
● | that the Company erroneously used an incorrect exchange rate in the translation of fixed assets into the Company’s reporting currency. | |
● | that the Company’s accounting for the acquisition of Yabez (Hong Kong) Company Limited in 2015 and for the acquisition of Billion Sino Holdings Limited were erroneously recorded using the partial goodwill method. | |
● | that the Company erroneously recorded goodwill on the acquisition of the assets of Greenpro Credit Limited (formerly Gushen Credit Limited), which was an asset acquisition. | |
● | that the Company erroneously did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable and did not write off long-outstanding receivables as bad debts at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. |
The effects on the previously issued financial statements are as follows:
(A) | In 2017, the Company corrected its method of recognizing revenue from certain service contracts to use the performance completion method. Previously the Company had recognized revenues upon billings. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to reflect the correction of the error. At September 30, 2017 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the restatement resulted in the Company recording a $330,384 decrease in accounts receivable, $92,279 of deferred costs of revenue, $485,000 of deferred revenue, a $180,177 increase in accumulated deficit, $560,000 of decreased service revenue, $17,072 of decreased costs of service revenue, and an increase in net loss of $542,928. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the restatement resulted in the Company recording $130,000 of decreased service revenue, $40,141 of decreased costs of service revenue, $10,135 of additional general and administrative expenses, and an increase in net loss of $99,995. |
(B) | At December 31, 2015, the Company erroneously calculated the cost of real estate held for investment due to an incorrect exchange rate used for translation of amounts from the local currencies of the Company’s operating subsidiaries into the reporting currency of the Company. In preparing its financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company determined that the incorrect exchange rate was used and corrected it. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2017 to reflect the correction of the error and real estate held for investment was decreased by $158,291 and accumulated other comprehensive income was decreased by $158,291.
In addition, the Company erroneously calculated the noncontrolling interest of Yabez (Hong Kong) Company Limited for the year ended December 31, 2015. The cumulative effect of the correction of the error was to decrease the accumulated deficit and increase the noncontrolling interest by $3,088 at September 30, 2017. There was no effect on net loss for 2017. |
(C) | In September 2015, the Company acquired Yabez (Hong Kong) Company Limited and calculated goodwill using the partial goodwill method. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to reflect the full goodwill method as required by US GAAP. The cumulative effect of the correction of the error was to increase goodwill by $174,001 and noncontrolling interest by $174,001 at September 30, 2017. There was no effect on net loss for 2017.
In April 2017, the Company acquired Billion Sino Holdings Limited and calculated goodwill using the partial goodwill method. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to reflect the full goodwill method as required by US GAAP. The cumulative effect of the correction of the error was to increase goodwill by $179,162, decrease additional paid-in capital by $340,645 and increase noncontrolling interest by $519,807 at September 30, 2017. There was no effect on net loss for 2017. |
14 |
In April 2017, the Company acquired assets in Greenpro Credit Limited (formerly Gushen Credit Limited). The acquisition was initially treated as a business combination instead of an asset acquisition. The Company restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to reflect the elimination of goodwill. The cumulative effect of the correction of the error was to decrease goodwill by $93,566 and increase general and administrative expenses and net loss the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 by $93,566. | |
(D) | In preparing its financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company erroneously did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts and did not write off long-outstanding receivables as bad debts. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to increase the allowance for uncollectible accounts by $97,211, increase accumulated deficit by $14,414, and increase bad debt expense and provision by $82,796. |
(E) | In preparing its financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company erroneously recorded the exchange difference, which arose from a capital injection into one of the subsidiaries as additional paid-in capital instead of other comprehensive income. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to decrease the additional paid-in capital by $2,029 and increase the other comprehensive income by $2,029. |

NOTE 5 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
On June 12, 2018, warrants exercisable into 53,556 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued as placement agent fees related to the Company’s sale of common stock (See Note 7). The strike price of warrants issued by the Company is denominated in US dollars, a currency other than the Company’s functional currencies, the HK$, RMB, and MYR. As a result, the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock, and the Company characterized the fair value of the warrants as a derivative liability upon issuance. The derivative liability is re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.
The derivative liabilities were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model with the following assumptions:

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
ASC 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 services categories, business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company has two reportable segments that are based on the following business units: service business and real estate business. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. The Company operates two reportable business segments:
18 |
● | Service business – provision of corporate advisory and business solution services |
● | Real estate business – leasing and trading of commercial real estate properties in Hong Kong and Malaysia |
The Company had no inter-segment sales for the periods presented. Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown as below:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to, among others, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, impairment analysis of real estate assets and other long term assets including goodwill, valuation allowance on deferred income taxes, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts. The implementation of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
The Company’s revenue consists of revenue from providing business consulting and corporate advisory services (“service revenue”), revenue from the sale of real estate properties, and revenue from the rental of real estate properties.
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets primarily include real estate held for investment, property and equipment, and intangible assets. In accordance with the provision of ASC 360, the Company generally conducts its annual impairment evaluation of its long-lived assets in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist, such as a significant sustained change in the business climate. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured at the reporting unit level. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. In addition, for real estate held for sale, an impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Under the guidance of ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized, rather it is tested for impairment annually, and will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit and would be measured as the excess carrying value of goodwill over the derived fair value of goodwill. The Company’s policy is to perform its annual impairment testing for its reporting units on December 31, of each fiscal year.
26 |
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. At each reporting date, the Company reviews its convertible securities to determine that their classification is appropriate.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Refer to Note 1 in the accompanying financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance at September 30, 2018 increased to $2,625,030 as compared to $1,162,394 at December 31, 2017. We estimate the Company currently has sufficient cash and liquidity to meet its anticipated working capital for the next twelve months.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $1,040,508 and used cash in operations of $743,954. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2017 financial statements, has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. On June 12, 2018, the Company sold 535,559 shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering at $6.00 per share for net proceeds of approximately $2.7 million, after deducting expenses of the offering. On July 18, 2018, the Company sold 906,666 shares of its common stock at $7.50 per share in a private placement for net proceeds of approximately $6.7 million. Despite the amount of funds that the Company has raised, no assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its shareholders, in the case of equity financing.

Net cash used in operating activities was $743,954 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $841,487 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, non-cash adjustments totaled $427,936 and were primarily composed of depreciation and amortization of $201,417, change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $319,520, and gain on sale of real estate held for sale of $248,276.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of September 30, 2018, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting process to enable the close process to be completed in a timely and accurate manner, which includes accurately estimating accruals and the overall preparation, review and analysis of the financial results; (2) lack of internal audit function due to the fact that the Company lacks qualified resources to perform the internal audit functions properly and that the scope and effectiveness of the internal audit function are yet to be developed; (3) the Company did not maintain effective controls over the completeness, accuracy, and valuation of revenue and accounts receivable. Specifically, the Company had not implemented effective controls to ensure that (i) that all revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied prior to revenue being recognized, including the collectability criteria is reasonably assured; (ii) the aging of accounts receivables is monitored to verify the completeness and accuracy of computations for the valuation of accounts receivables reserves and (iii) the analysis of the completed performance method of accounting for contract revenues is accurate and complete; (4) the Company did not maintain effective controls over the allocation of the purchase price for acquisitions to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed; (5) the Company did not maintain adequate controls over the proper application of foreign exchange rates in the translation of fixed assets into the Company’s reporting currency; and (6) the Company did not maintain adequate controls over the issuance of notes receivable. These material weaknesses resulted in the restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of September 30, 2018.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management’s review and approval of all transactions. Our internal control over financial reporting also includes those policies and procedures that:
1. pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
2. provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and
3. provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2018. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.
Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of September 30, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
We have increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function and intend to hire one or more additional personnel for the function due to turnover. We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives. We also plan to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity and debt transactions. We plan to test our updated controls and remediate our deficiencies in the year 2018.
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
