Weyland Tech INC.
Notes to interim Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION GOING CONCERN
The Company specializes in providing e-commerce solutions and services that facilitate multi-channel B2C (business-to-consumer) and B2B (business-to-business) transactions. Its solutions and services enable e-commerce transactions with speed and efficiency, and allow an interactive and engaging customer experience as well as targeted marketing and advertising.
The Companys revenues are generated from one-time integration fees for the implementation of e-commerce solutions as well as recurring license and service fees. The Company currently hosts two e-commerce solutions.
These financial statements of Weyland Tech Inc. (the Company) have been prepared on a going-concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
The Company experienced losses during fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 amounting to $255,693, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to meet its commitments as they become payable is dependent on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing or achieving a profitable level of operations. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.
The Company believes that it can continue to receive revenues from its customers. The Company expects to continue utilizing its cost structure by sourcing personnel in Asia for servicing its customers. In order to accelerate the growth of the Company, it will also consider raising additional funding from investors.
These financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to the amounts and classifications to assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
We have prepared the unaudited condensed financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) for interim periods. The unaudited condensed financial statements included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of our management, necessary to state fairly the results of operations and financial position for the periods presented. The results for the six month period ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2015 or for any interim or future period.
These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KA for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.
1.2
Acquisition of Technopreneurs Resource Centre Private Limited
On September 1st, the Company completed the acquisition of Technopreneurs Resources Center Private Limited, based in Singapore ("TRC") and added an additional business line to its products and services offering via TRC's 'CreateApp' platform.
Given that the acquisition of TRC closed on September 1st, 2015, the additional contribution to revenues only included one month of TRC operations.
5
In connection with the acquisition, we acquired TRC at a benchmark valuation of $36,000,000 and issued 12,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
These consolidated management accounts include the management accounts of the Company and that of its wholly owned subsidiary, Technopreneurs Resource Centre Private Limited , as referred to in note 1 above.
The results of subsidiaries acquired during the year are included from the effective date of acquisition.
All material intra group transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Companys financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the ultimate outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Company relies on leased hardware and software from third parties to offer its e-commerce solutions and services. Management believes that alternate sources are available; however, disruption or termination of these relationships could adversely affect our operating results in the near-term. The Company currently has two customers who provide all of the Companys recurring revenue. Loss of any one of these customers would have a significant impact on the Companys revenue.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents comprise certain highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
EQUIPMENT
Equipment is carried at cost less a provision for depreciation on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Estimated useful life of the computer equipment is 3 years.
RECLASSIFICATION
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for stock based compensation by recognizing the fair value of stock compensation as an expense in the calculation of net income (loss). The Company recognizes stock compensation expense in the period in which the employee is required to provide service, which is generally over the vesting period of the individual equity instruments. Stock options issued in lieu of cash to non-employees for services performed are recorded at the fair value of the options at the time they are issued and are expensed as service is provided.
6
EARNINGS /(LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including vested and unvested stock options that are in the money.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, interest payable, shareholder loans and other current liabilities. The carrying values of financial instruments reflected in these financial statements approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue from providing hosting and integration services and licensing the use of its technology platform to its customers. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) the service has been provided to the customer (for licensing, revenue is recognized when the Companys technology is used to provide hosting and integration services); (3) the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) the collection of fees is probable. We account for our multi-element arrangements, such as instances where we design a custom website and separately offer other services such as hosting, which are recognized over the period for when services are performed.
COST OF SERVICE
Cost of service results from sourcing technical and engineering personnel in Asia on an hourly or project basis in order to develop e-commerce solutions and provide ongoing hosting service to individual customers. The Company utilizes an outsourced staffing firm with offices in China.
CAPITALIZATION OF SOFTWARE
The Company accounts for internal-use software and website development costs, including the development of its partner marketplaces in accordance with ASC 350-50 ( Intangibles Website cost ). The Company capitalizes internal costs consisting of payroll and direct payroll-related costs of employees who devote time to the development of internal-use software, as well as any external direct costs. It amortizes these costs over their estimated useful lives, which typically range between three to five years. The Companys judgment is required in determining the point at which various projects enter the stages at which costs may be capitalized, in assessing the ongoing value of the capitalized costs, and in determining the estimated useful lives over which the costs are amortized. The estimated life is based on managements judgment as to the product life cycle. Development cost of various platforms is being expensed. The Company cannot separate internal cost on a reasonably cost-effective basis between maintenance and upgrades, and cannot assess the ongoing value of its various projects, thus all project costs are expensed as such costs are incurred.
DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Expenditure on research activities is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.
The development cost of CreateApp Version 2 has been capitalized as the following has been demonstrated by TTechnopreneurs Resource Centre Private Limited :
·
Technical feasibility of application of CreateApp Version 2 is proven with additional
7
functionality being added and enhanced;
·
Launched in August 2015 and currently in use by existing customers;
·
Ability to measure reliably the total expenditure required.
The development costs of CreateApp Version 2 are amortized on a straight line basis over an estimated useful life of 3 years.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are provided for using the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized using current tax rates on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax basis of the assets and liabilities. The Company provides a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized.
The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting this standard, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company recognized interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the accompanying statements of operation. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability in the balance sheets.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
There were various other accounting standards and interpretations recently issued, none of which is expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, operations or cash flows.
3. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY/(DEFICIT)
Common Shares
Authorized common shares of the Company consist of 250,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.00001 each.
Debt-to-Equity Conversions
As the terms of conversion to equity of the convertible debentures outstanding at December 31, 2014 of $303,491 have lapsed, these have been reclassified as Other Payables.
Employee Stock Option Plan
The Company has a stock option and incentive plan, the Stock Option Plan. The exercise price for all equity awards issued under the Stock Option Plan is based on the fair market value of the common share price which is the closing price quoted on the Pink Sheets on the last trading day before the date of grant. The stock options generally vest on a monthly basis over a two-year to three-year period, and have a five year life.
The Stock Option Plan allows for the issuance of stock options, stock awards, or other incentives. An aggregate of 25,000,000 shares are authorized under the Stock Option Plan. As of September 30, 2015, there are 24,590,000 shares reserved for future grants under the Stock Option Plan.
Stock-Based Compensation
All options outstanding are fully vested as of December 31, 2014 and have all expired at September
8
30, 2015. No new options were granted in during the three months ended September 30, 2015.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Accounts payable and other accruals include $11,000 of accrued salaries due to the Companys Chief Executive Officer as of September 30, 2015 compared to $22,000 due to the former Chief Executive Officer as of December 31, 2014.

Overview
Weyland Tech specializes in providing e-commerce solutions and services that facilitate multi-channel B2C (business-to-consumer) and B2B (business-to-business) transactions. Its solutions and services enable e-commerce transactions with speed and efficiency, and allow an interactive and engaging customer experience as well as targeted marketing and advertising.
The Companys revenues are generated from one-time integration fees for the implementation of e-commerce solutions as well as recurring license and service fees.
On September 1st, the Company completed the acquisition of Technopreneurs Resource Center Private Limited ("TRC") and added an additional business line to its products and services offering via TRC's 'CreateApp' platform.
Given that the acquisition of TRC closed on September 1st, 2015, the additional contribution to revenues only included one month of TRC operations.
Significant Transactions
Acquisition of acquisition of Technopreneurs Resource Centre Private Limited.
On September 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Technopreneurs Resource Centre Private Limited ("TRC") based in Singapore.
In connection with the acquisition, the consideration included the issuance of 12,000,000 shares of our common stock.
TRC's CreateApp platform was marketed and sold predominantly in Singapore with less than 1% of sales attributable to ex-Singapore customers.
The CreateApp platform is offered in eleven languages and enables small-medium-sized businesses ("SMBs") to create a mobile application ("app") without the need of technical knowledge and background.
SME's can increase sales, reach more customers and promote their products and services via a simple easy to build mobile app at an affordable and cost-effective manner.
Management plans for expansion into other markets by repurposing the CreateApp platform into the target countries predominant languages as well as establishing a small base of operations in each target country. The goal is to replicate the early success of TRC in its 2014 year of operations and scale the business to a greater level.
12
From January 2015 until August 2015, TRC concentrated product development efforts towards developing a fully-hosted Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS"), monthly paid service offering versus the business model of an annual licensing fee paid up front as in fiscal year 2014.
To increase our revenue, we must execute on our strategy of offering the CreateApp platform to SMB's and resellers with an affordable monthly fee, free upgrades, and expansion into new markets.
However, for us to successfully execute on our strategy, we must identify and structure strategic partnerships in new markets which requires additional funding which management will seek to obtain through the issuance of shares or debt financings.

Results of Operations
Service Revenue
Service Revenue was $648,159 and $383,821 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase is due to recognizing higher revenue from the consolidation of results of CreateApp and HRM360 Platform from September 1, 2015.
Cost of Service
Cost of Service was $264,740 and $398,240 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease was caused by lower personnel costs required for the development and hosting of e-commerce solutions for our customers and the CreateApp and HRM360 platforms' digital distribution solution

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our registered independent auditors for the year ended December 31, 2014 have issued a going concern opinion as per our most recent Form 10-K and the Company experienced losses during fiscal year 2014 amounting to $255,693. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next 12 months unless we obtain additional capital or generate revenues to pay our bills. We believe that we can generate revenues as a provider of e-commerce solutions and services. Our other source for cash at this time is investments by others in the Company. We may need to raise cash to fully implement our projects and stay in business. These financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to the amounts and classifications to assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
On September 30, 2015, we had working capital of $1,098,671 compared with negative working capital of $213,768 on September , 2015 The increase in working capital is due to the consolidation of our subsidiary and our net profit for the period. Operating activities provided $41,038 in cash for operating expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2015 as the operations were on open account basis. There was no movement in Investment activities or Financing activities in the three months ended September 30, 2015.
We may not have enough working capital to complete our plan of operations. If it turns out that we have not raised enough capital to complete our anticipated business development, we will try to raise additional funds from private placements or loans. There is no assurance that we will raise additional capital in the future or that future financings will be available to us on acceptable terms. If we require additional capital and are unable to raise it, we may have to suspend or cease operations.
