SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION
CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Form 10-Q. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance, anticipated expenses, or projected financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include the following:

 

  the availability and adequacy of our cash flow to meet our requirements;
     
  economic, competitive, demographic, business and other conditions in our local and regional markets;
     
  changes or developments in laws, regulations or taxes in our industry;
     
  actions taken or omitted to be taken by third parties including our suppliers and competitors, as well as legislative, regulatory, judicial and other governmental authorities;
     
  competition in our industry;
     
  the loss of or failure to obtain any license or permit necessary or desirable in the operation of our business;
     
  changes in our business strategy, capital improvements or development plans;
     
  the availability of additional capital to support capital improvements and development; and
     
  other risks identified in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, or joint ventures we may make or collaborations or strategic partnerships we may enter into.

 

You should read this Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “Leader Capital Holdings Corp.,” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer collectively to Leader Capital Holdings Corp. and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

LEADER CAPITAL HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO condensed consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNaudited)

For the three months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018

(In U.S. dollars except for share data)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND

 

Leader Capital Holdings Corp. was incorporated on March 22, 2017 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

 

The Company, through its subsidiaries, mainly operates and services a mobile application investment platform.

 

Company Name   Place/Date of Incorporation   Principal Activities
         
1. Leader Financial Group Limited   Seychelles / March 6, 2017   Investment Holding
         
2. JFB Internet Service Limited   Hong Kong / July 6, 2017   Provides an Investment Platform

 

Leader Capital Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company has adopted August 31 as its fiscal year end. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on November 29, 2019.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated 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.

 

The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, and recorded an accumulated deficit of $2,714,376 as of November 30, 2019. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s profit generating operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due.

 

6
 

 

The Company expects to finance its operations primarily through loans from existing directors and stockholders, sales of capital stock and cash flow from operations. In the event that the Company requires additional funding to finance the Company’s current and expected future operations, as well as to achieve its strategic objectives, a stockholder has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional financing. 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. Any such additional financing may contain undue restrictions on the Company’s operations and/or cause substantial dilution to its stockholders.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as going concern.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form 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 these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Identified below are the accounting policies that reflect the Company’s most significant estimates and judgments, and those that the Company believes are the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company expenses software development costs, including costs to develop software products or the software component of products to be marketed to external users, before technological feasibility is reached. Technological feasibility is typically reached shortly before the release of such products and, as a result, development costs that meet the criteria for capitalization were not material for the periods presented.

 

The Company capitalizes development costs related to these software applications once the preliminary project stage is complete and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended.

 

On September 1, 2018, the Company engaged LOC Weibo Co., Ltd (“LOC”), an unrelated company incorporated in Taiwan, to develop a mobile application in four stages for total consideration of TWD20,000,000 ($651,466), payable in the form of shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. The first and second stages of development for the basic functions of the mobile application have been completed, and the Company has issued an aggregate total of 908,678 shares of restricted common stock at a price per share of $0.50 for the work completed up to November 30, 2019.

 

Of the shares of restricted common stock that have been issued to LOC, nil and 390,375 shares of restricted common stock were issued during the three months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, for the work completed during each period. The Company expensed $0 and $195,187 in development costs as general and administrative expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of November 30, 2019, the development of the mobile application is still in progress and the Company has not capitalized any of the development costs.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes revenue following the five-step model prescribed under ASU 2014-09:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price

Step 5: Recognize revenue

 

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, which may occur at a point in time or over time depending on the terms and conditions of the agreement, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

Currently, the Company has an agreement with a third party whereby the Company authorized the third party to use the Company’s investment platform and related applications from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. Income from providing investment platform services with the use of a mobile application is recognized when the service is performed.

 

Revenue by Recognition Over Time vs Point in Time

 

   For the three months ended November 30, 
   2019   2018 
Revenue by recognition over time  $1,667   $- 
Revenue by recognition at a point in time   -    - 
   $1,667   $- 

 

Other Income – Related Party

 

Revenue from the subletting of leasehold land and buildings is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession or controls the physical use of the leased assets. The Company leased its commercial office in Taipei from April 1, 2018 to February 28, 2019 under a non-cancelable operating lease with a term of 31 months to a related party, Greenpro LF Limited, which is owned by Mr. Yi-Hsiu Lin, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of its board of directors (“Mr. Lin”), and Mr. Chong Kuang Lee.

 

Practical Expedients and Exemption

 

The Company has not incurred any costs to obtain contracts, and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

 

8
 

 

Plant and Equipment

 

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational:

 

  Expected useful life
Furniture and fixture 3
Office equipment 3
Leasehold improvement 3

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment has been recorded by the Company for the three months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

The Company recorded a liability for an uncertain income tax position, tax penalties and any imputed interest thereon of $20,000 and $0 at November 30, 2019 and August 31, 2019, respectively, included in accrued payables and accrued liabilities due to the potential of incurring a tax penalty for filing tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service late and, if recognized, such penalty will affect the Company’s effective tax rate.

 

The Company conducts business in Hong Kong and is subject to tax in the jurisdiction of Hong Kong. As a result of its business activities, the Company will file tax returns that are subject to examination by the Hong Kong tax authority.

 

Net Income/(Loss) Per Share

 

The Company calculates net income/(loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income/(loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional shares of common stock were dilutive. The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share:

Stock-based compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment topic of ASC Topic 718 (“ASC 718”), which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the vesting period or immediately if fully vested and non-forfeitable. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

 

Additionally, ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, permits the election of an accounting policy for forfeitures of share-based payment awards, either to recognize forfeitures as they occur or estimate forfeitures over the vesting period of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of the stock-based compensation guidance in ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. ASU 2018-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, but entities may not adopt prior to adopting the new revenue recognition guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 on September 1, 2019 and there was no cumulative effect of adoption.

 

Foreign Currencies Translation

 

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.

 

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (“US$”). The Company’s subsidiaries in Seychelles and Hong Kong maintain their books and records in US$ and Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”), respectively. HK$ is the functional currency and the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company operates.

 

In general, for consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from the translation of the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of retained earnings.

 

Related Parties

 

Parties, which can be a corporation or an individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability to, directly or indirectly, control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, deposits, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, balances due to a director and bonds payable, approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments or the rate of interest of these instruments approximate the market rate of interest.

 

10
 

 

The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820 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.

 

Leasing

 

Under ASC Topic 842, “Leases”, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date, based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, and discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. The ROU assets represent the Company’s right to control the use of an identified asset for the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are generally recognized based on the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability. The ROU assets also include any lease payments made prior to the commencement of the lease and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance to combine the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for operating leases associated with the Company’s office space lease, and to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company’s only lease meets the definition of a short-term lease because the initial lease term is 12 months or less. Consequently, the Company does not recognize the ROU asset and the lease liability arising from this lease.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and issued certain transitional guidance and subsequent amendments between January 2018 and March 2019 within ASU No. 2018-01, ASU No. 2018-10, ASU No. 2018-11, ASU No. 2018-20 and ASU No. 2019-01 (collectively, including ASU No. 2016-02, “ASC 842”), which amends ASC Topic 840, the existing accounting standards for lease accounting. ASC 842 generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. We adopted ASC 824 on September 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application and not restating comparative periods. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on net assets and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which expands the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. The new standard became effective for the Company on September 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended August 31, 2019 included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors.

 

Company Overview

 

Leader Capital Holdings Corp. is an early stage technology company that conducts its operations through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Leader Financial Group Limited, a Seychelles corporation incorporated on March 6, 2017 (“LFGL”), and JFB Internet Service Limited, a Hong Kong corporation incorporated on July 6, 2017 (“JFB”).

 

Through LFGL, we act as the service provider for a mobile application investment platform that is owned by JFB. The platform connects investors with financial service providers in an effort to sharpen operational efficiency and seeks to address customer demands for more innovative services. It is a ready-made application created to meet the needs of financial service providers, especially trust companies and insurance companies. The platform is customizable and each financial institution can adjust the platform to better suit their client’s needs.

 

Use of the JFB platform is currently free; however, we have an agreement with a third party whereby we have authorized the third party to use our investment platform and related applications until December 31, 2020 for a fee. In the future, the Company intends to generate additional revenue by developing a new, more comprehensive mobile application, with similar functions as the JFB platform, to offer to our clients for a fee.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated 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.

 

We have suffered recurring losses from operations, and recorded an accumulated deficit of $2,714,376 as of November 30, 2019. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our profit generating operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due.

 

The Company expects to finance its operations primarily through loans from existing directors and stockholders, sales of capital stock and cash flow from operations. In the event that the Company requires additional funding to finance the Company’s current and expected future operations, as well as to achieve its strategic objectives, a stockholder has indicated the intent and ability to provide additional financing. 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. Any such additional financing may contain undue restrictions on the Company’s operations and/or cause substantial dilution to its stockholders.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as going concern.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended November 30, 2019, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of November 30, 2019. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of November 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of November 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) a lack of an audit committee; (ii) a lack of adequate written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting (iii) insufficient appropriate information technology controls, and (iv) a lack of sufficient and skilled accounting personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge and experience in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States commensurate with our financial reporting requirements

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ending November 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
