PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Business Overview

Gushen, Inc., a Nevada corporation, ( “we”, “us” or “the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 9, 2015.

Gushen, Inc. is a holding company operating through its wholly owned subsidiary, Gushen Holding Limited.

Gushen Holding Limited was incorporated in Seychelles, however all physical operations were intended to take place in Hong Kong and Malaysia.

On August 5, 2016, the Company acquired a Hong Kong company, namely Gushen Credit Limited, with a money lender license registered according to Cap163 Money Lenders Ordinance of Hong Kong. Due to the keen competition and high rental expense in Hong Kong, on April 27, 2017, the Company decided to dispose of the asset for a consideration of $105,000 and ceased the business in Hong Kong.

On April 28, 2017, the Company, through its subsidiary Gushen Holding Limited, sold two (2) ordinary shares of Gushen Credit Limited to a third party, representing 100% of ownership for a consideration of $0.26. The Company, with effect from April 28, 2017, ceased to carry on the money lending business in Hong Kong.

Gushen is a company that intended to provide managerial and IT support to start-ups as well as SME (small and medium enterprises) to assist them in their early stages of operations as they expand and grow their own company. The Company attempted to assist the SMEs which are recently established and at an early stage of operations, but did not participate in the board of the SMEs or making business decisions.

Gushen attempted to assist companies that are just getting off the ground and that are at an early stage of operations. The primary purpose behind focusing on companies at this early stage of development was intended to enable Gushen to establish and nurture long-term lasting relationships with our clients as they grow and develop. Gushen attempted to target companies located in Malaysia.

For business activities, the Company intended to offer the following IT and managerial services to clients:

The Company did not open for business or generate any revenues. Our limited start-up operations have consisted of the formation of our business plan and identification of our target market.

During the period from November 2017 through March 2020, the Company was dormant.

The Company’s accounting year-end is April 30.

On March 27, 2020, as a result of the custodianship in Clark County, Nevada, Case Number: A-20-810740-B, Custodian Ventures, LLC was appointed custodian of Gushen Inc. David Lazar, a private investor is the managing member of Custodian Ventures, LLC.

On March 27, 2020, the custodian appointed David Lazar, as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors.

To the extent that we remain a smaller reporting company at such time as are no longer an emerging growth company, we will still have reduced disclosure requirements for our public filings, some of which are similar to those of an emerging growth company, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our Common Stock is not traded on any exchange but is currently available for trading in the over-the-counter market and is quoted on the OTC Pink Sheets operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “GSHN” Trading in stocks quoted on these markets is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects.

Over the counter securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, these securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks. Over the counter issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.

The SEC also has rules that regulate broker/dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities listed on certain national exchanges, provided that the current price and volume information with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the applicable exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker/dealer, before effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker/dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing before effecting the transaction, and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for shares of our Common Stock. As a result of these rules, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares.

Set forth below are the range of high and low bid quotations for the periods indicated as reported by the OTC Markets Group. The market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.  

On September 11, 2020, the closing price of our Common Stock as reported by the OTC Markets was $1.60 per share.

Holders

As of September 14, 2020, we had 29,018,750 shares of our Common Stock par value, $0.0001 issued and outstanding. There were 48 beneficial owners of our Common Stock.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent for our capital stock is Globex Transfer, LLC, with an address at 780 Deltona Blvd., Suite 202 Deltona, FL 32725 and telephone number is +1 (813) 344-4490.

Penny Stock Regulations

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).

For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our Common Stock, which may limit the investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock.

Dividend Policy

Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no contractual obligations or restrictions to declare or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

Currently, there is no equity compensation plan in place.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2020.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Registrant and Affiliated Purchasers

We have not repurchased any shares of our common stock during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2020.

Description of Securities and Certain Rights of Holders of Common Stock

The Company has authorized 600,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 200,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock both with a par value of $0.0001. As of April 30, 2020, and April 30, 2019, respectively, there were 29,018,750 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

The 10,000,000 Preferred Shares which were granted to Mr. Lazar on April 17, 2020 carried conversion rights of 10 shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock. The issuance of the preferred stock resulted in a non-cash charge of $10,000 and was recorded as stock-based compensation related party on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Holders of our Common Stock:

Holders of shares of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights, meaning that the holders of the majority of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of Directors, can elect all of the Directors to be elected, and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our Directors.

Historically, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Overview

For an overview of the business of the Company, please refer to this Comprehensive Annual Report on Form 10-K to Part I, Item 1 (“Business”). 

Plan of Operation

We have been dormant since November 2017. As of the date of this Report, we intend to engage in what we believe to be synergistic acquisitions or joint ventures with a company or companies that we believe will enhance our business plan. There are no assurances we will be able to consummate any acquisitions using our securities as consideration, or at all. Numerous things will need to occur to allow us to implement this aspect of our business plan and there are no assurances that any of these developments will occur, or if they do occur, that we will be successful in fully implementing our plan.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. We have not generated any revenue since inception. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to the price and cost increases in supplies and services.

If we are unable to meet our needs for cash from either our operations, or possible alternative sources, then we may be unable to continue, develop, or expand our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosures Control and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

As of April 30, 2020, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, internal controls and procedures over financial reporting were not effective. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

Identified Material Weaknesses

A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weaknesses during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of April 30, 2020.

Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Company’s internal controls.

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting:

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered independent public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) because of these acquisition rights.

As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding on April 30, 2020. As of April 30, 2020, there were 29,018,750 shares of our company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding.

Mr. Lazar, the Company’s Court-appointed custodian is considered a related party. During the year ended April 30, 2020, he extended $16,534 in interest-free demand loans to the Company.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Gushen, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Gushen, Inc. as of April 30, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED APRIL 30, 2020 AND 2019

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Gushen, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 9, 2015, in the state of Nevada. The Company has nominal operations. The principal activity of the Company was intended to provide managerial assistance services including administrative and IT support services for small and medium enterprises in their early stage of operations through its subsidiary, Gushen Holding Limited, which is incorporated in the Republic of Seychelles. The Company attempted to assist the SMEs which are recently established and at an early stage of operations, but will not participate in the board of the SMEs or making a business decision. The primary purpose behind focusing on providing services to companies at this early stage of development will be for the Company to establish and nurture long-term relationships with clients during their growth and development.

The Company did not open for business or generate any revenues. Our limited start-up operations have consisted of the formation of our business plan and identification of our target market.

During the period from November 2017 through March 2020, the Company was dormant.

The Company’s accounting year-end is April 30.

On March 27, 2020, as a result of the custodianship in Clark County, Nevada, Case Number: A-20-810740-B, Custodian Ventures, LLC was appointed custodian of Gushen Inc. David Lazar, a private investor is the managing member of Custodian Ventures, LLC.

On March 27, 2020, the custodian appointed David Lazar, as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) “FASB Accounting Standard Codification™” (the “Codification”) which is the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the date of these financial statements. The Company has incurred operating losses since inception. As of April 30, 2020, the company had a working capital deficit of $32,134 and negative shareholders’ equity of $32,134.

Because the Company does not expect that existing operational cash flow will be sufficient to fund presently anticipated operations, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Company will need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring alternative sources of financing. The Company is currently being funded by David Lazar who is extending interest-free demand loans to the Company. Historically, the Company has raised capital through private placements, as an interim measure to finance working capital needs and may continue to raise additional capital through the sale of common stock or other securities and obtaining some short-term loans. The Company will be required to continue to so until its operations become profitable. Also, the Company has, in the past, paid for consulting services with its common stock to maximize working capital, and intends to continue this practice where feasible.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The most significant estimates relate to income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018, are presented under ASC 606. As of and for the year ended April 30, 2020, the financial statements were not impacted due to the application of Topic 606 because the Company had no revenues.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On April 30, 2020, and April 30, 2019, the Company’s cash equivalents totaled $-0- and $-0- respectively.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under FASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under FASB ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. FASB ASC 740-10-05, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.

The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company assesses the validity of its conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions quarterly to determine if facts or circumstances have arisen that might cause it to change its judgment regarding the likelihood of a tax position’s sustainability under audit.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method following the guidance outlined in Section 718-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosure about Stock-Based Compensation. This section requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award- the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.

Net Loss per Share

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. The updated guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Codification Improvements, which clarifies certain aspects of the new lease standard. The FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases in July 2018. Also in 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements, which provides an optional transition method whereby the new lease standard is applied at the adoption date and recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings. The amendments have the same effective date and transition requirements as the new lease standard.

We intend to adopt ASC 842 on May 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any impact on our financial statements.

Stockholders’ Equity

The Company has authorized 600,000,000 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.001. As of April 30, 2020, and April 30, 2019, there were 29,018,750 shares outstanding, respectively.

Additionally, the Company’s authorized capital stock of Preferred Shares consists of 200,000,000 shares of which 10,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred stock was issued to Mr. Lazar in April 2020 as compensation for the funding he has provided to the Company. Each preferred share is convertible in 10 shares of common stock. Since the trading activity on the Company was very sparse prior to the issuance, the shares were valued at par or approximately $10,000. The Company recorded stock-based compensation of $9,000 on this issuance for the period ended April 30, 2020

NOTE 4 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company did not have any contractual commitments of April 30, 2020, and 2019

NOTE 5 – NOTES PAYABLE-RELATED PARY

Mr. Lazar, the principal member of the Company’s Court-appointed custodian is considered a related party. During the year ended April 30, 2020, he extended $16,534 in interest-free demand loans to the Company.

NOTE 6 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with FASB ASC 855-10, Subsequent Events, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to April 30, 2020, to the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these consolidated financial statements
