ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
General
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 6, 2010 under the name “Advanced Ventures Corp.” Effective January 6, 2014, we changed our name to “Gold Union Inc.” Effective March 26, 2018, we changed our name to Noble Vici Group, Inc. and our trading symbol was changed to NVGI. On August 8, 2018, we consummated the acquisition of Noble Vici Private Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of Singapore (“NVPL”), which was wholly owned by Eldee Tang, our sole director and Chief Executive Officer. NVPL is engaged in the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business. As a result of our acquisition of NVPL, we entered into the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business. We are headquartered in Singapore and operate a branch office in Taiwan. Certain of our resellers are operating “V-More” branded satellite offices in Shenzhen, China.
History
As Advanced Ventures Corp., we acquired a patent (U.S. Patent Number: 6,743,209) (the “Patent”), for a catheter with a integral anchoring mechanism. During the second fiscal quarter of 2014, we elected to discontinue our business of exploiting the Patent and began to consider other business opportunities that may bring quicker and greater value to our stockholders. We initially considered entering into the business of trading precious metal bullion primarily in the Asia Pacific region. Therefore, effective January 6, 2014, we changed our name to “Gold Union Inc.” to more adequately reflect our initial intended business operations.
Effective March 7, 2012, we increased the number of our authorized shares of common stock to three billion shares (3,000,000,000) and engaged in a forward stock split of our common shares whereby each one share of our common stock was split into fifteen shares of our common stock.
On December 31, 2015, we consummated a Share Exchange Agreement with G.U. International Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles and our wholly owned subsidiary (“GUI”), and Kao Wei-Chen, an individual representing herself and 8 other individuals (collectively, the “Golden Corridor Shareholders”), which agreement was amended several times to extend the closing date of the acquisition (collectively, the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we, through GUI, purchased 480 shares of Phnom Penh Golden Corridor Trading Co. Limited (the “GC Shares”), from 9 private Golden Corridor Shareholders, representing 48% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Golden Corridor. As consideration, we issued to the Golden Corridor Shareholders 2,500,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a value of US $0.002 per share, for an aggregate value of US $5,000,000.
1 |
As a result of our acquisition of the GC Shares, we ceased our metal bullion trading business and entered into the real estate development and rental business located in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Golden Corridor owns three parcels of land located at National Road 44, Phum Phkung, Chbarmorn Commune, Chbarmorn District, Kampong Speu Province, Kingdom of Cambodia, measuring an aggregate of 172,510 square meters (collectively, the “Properties”). We intended to develop the Properties into an industrial park for rental income.
Due to difficulties in entering the real estate development and rental business, on February 2, 2018, we engaged in a corporate reorganization and distributed the GC Shares to our shareholders. On March 18, 2018, our subsidiary, G.U. Asia Limited was dissolved.
Change in Control to Current Business
On January 29, 2018, Eldee Tang entered into Share Sale Agreements with Kao Wei-Chen and three other shareholders and former affiliates of the Company to purchase up to 1,675,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share purchase price of US$0.00008, for an aggregate price of US$134,000. On June 15, 2018, the Company effectuated a 1 for 1,000 reverse stock split whereby every 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reduced to one share. The parties effectuated Mr. Tang’s purchase of 750,000 shares such securities (expressed on a post reverse split basis) effective June 15, 2018. Mr. Tang expects to purchase the balance of the 925,000 shares from Kao Wei-Chen, a former affiliate of the Company, in the near future. The foregoing description of the Share Sale Agreement with Kao Wei-Chen is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Quarterly Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with the contemplated change in control, on March 27, 2018, Lim Yew Chuan, the director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of Noble Vici Group, Inc. (the “Company”), resigned from all of his positions as director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company. Concurrently, Eldee Tang was appointed to serve as the Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, together with other members of the new management team.
Effective June 15, 2018, we:
1. | Increased the Company’s authorized capital from 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”), to 3,050,000,000 shares, consisting of 3,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Preferred Stock”); | |
2. | Effected a 1-for-1000 reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”); | |
3. | Elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; | |
4. | Changed the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31st to March 31st, for all purposes (including tax and financial accounting); | |
5. | Adopted Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation for the purpose of consolidating the amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation; and | |
6. | Adopted the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company. |
Acquisition of NVPL, TDA and NDA
On August 8, 2018, we consummated the acquisition of Noble Vici Private Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of Singapore (“NVPL”), in accordance with the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement. NVPL is wholly owned by Eldee Tang, our Chief Executive Officer and Director. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we purchased One Million and One (1,000,001) shares of NVPL (the “NVPL Shares”), representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of NVPL, in consideration of One Hundred Forty Million (140,000,000) shares of our common stock, at a value of US $1.70 per share, for an aggregate value of US $238,000,000. It is our understanding that Mr. Tang is not a U.S. Person within the meaning of Regulations S. Accordingly, the Shares are being sold pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Regulation D and Regulation S promulgated thereunder. As a result of our acquisition of NVPL, we entered into the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business.

Our Operations and Future Plans
We are focused on providing users with innovative tools to live and interact in the modern mobile world through its ecosystem of IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce products and services. We integrate blockchain technology with our E-commerce platform to connect consumers and merchants in a dynamic global marketplace via blockchain transactions. We onboard users, consumers and referrers through our Affiliate Incentivized Marketing (AIM) model while merchants are onboarded via our Merchant Incentivized Marketing (MIM) model. Some products and services offered in our ecosystem include procurement of discounted goods and services, referral reward system, mobile games and digital marketing, financial markets apps and a “Business Centre” within the same app. Our E-commerce platform not only offers users the ability to make online purchases, but also the convenience of an O2O (Online to Offline) platform whereby consumers can transact at a discount online while goods and services are distributed at a physical location. This drives traffic to the already weakened retail industry. The Business Centre within our ecosystem is offered through a mobile app and allows users to create their own referral platform within our ecosystem.
We are pursuing a plan of expansion and hope to achieve revenue growth through mass adoption by users and merchants of our platform/ecosystem. We seek to increase our user and merchant base through user incentive programs and brand awareness marketing programs, among other things. We expect to focus on users and merchants located in China and the Asia Pacific region in the foreseeable future. Similarly, we intend to seek corporate growth by listing our securities on a national exchange such as the Nasdaq Capital Markets in the future. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to successfully grow our revenues or list our securities on a national exchange in the future, if ever.
Near-Term Requirements For Additional Capital
For the immediate future, we intend to finance our business efforts and any future acquisitions through sales of our securities to existing shareholders and loans from existing shareholders or financial institutions. We have not yet generated revenues. We expect to incur relatively small operating losses over the next twelve months until we acquire an operating company. There can be no assurance that that we will be successful in consummating a business acquisition or that such business will be successful after acquisition.
Intellectual Property
We continue to own the rights, title and interests in Patent for a receptacle catheter with integral anchoring means, which Patent is associated with our former business. The Patent was issued on September 1, 2004 and will expire on September 6, 2022. We do not expect to exploit this Patent in the near future.

Overview
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 6, 2010 under the name “Advanced Ventures Corp.” Effective January 6, 2014, we changed our name to “Gold Union Inc.” Effective March 26, 2018, we changed our name to Noble Vici Group, Inc. and our trading symbol was changed to NVGI. On August 8, 2018, we consummated the acquisition of Noble Vici Private Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of Singapore (“NVPL”), which was wholly owned by Eldee Tang, our sole director and Chief Executive Officer. NVPL is engaged in the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business. As a result of our acquisition of NVPL, we entered into the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business. We are headquartered in Singapore and operate a branch office in Taiwan. Certain of our resellers are operating “V-More” branded satellite offices in Shenzhen, China.
History
As Advanced Ventures Corp., we acquired a patent (U.S. Patent Number: 6,743,209) (the “Patent”), for a catheter with a integral anchoring mechanism. During the second fiscal quarter of 2014, we elected to discontinue our business of exploiting the Patent and began to consider other business opportunities that may bring quicker and greater value to our stockholders. We initially considered entering into the business of trading precious metal bullion primarily in the Asia Pacific region. Therefore, effective January 6, 2014, we changed our name to “Gold Union Inc.” to more adequately reflect our initial intended business operations.
Effective March 7, 2012, we increased the number of our authorized shares of common stock to three billion shares (3,000,000,000) and engaged in a forward stock split of its common shares whereby each one share of our common stock was split into fifteen shares of our common stock.
On December 31, 2015, we consummated a Share Exchange Agreement with G.U. International Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles and our wholly owned subsidiary (“GUI”), and Kao Wei-Chen, an individual representing herself and 8 other individuals (collectively, the “Golden Corridor Shareholders”), which agreement was amended several times to extend the closing date of the acquisition (collectively, the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we, through GUI, purchased 480 shares of Phnom Penh Golden Corridor Trading Co. Limited (the “GC Shares”), from 9 private Golden Corridor Shareholders, representing 48% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Golden Corridor. As consideration, we issued to the Golden Corridor Shareholders 2,500,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a value of US $0.002 per share, for an aggregate value of US $5,000,000.
As a result of our acquisition of the GC Shares, we ceased our metal bullion trading business and entered into the real estate development and rental business located in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Golden Corridor owns three parcels of land located at National Road 44, Phum Phkung, Chbarmorn Commune, Chbarmorn District, Kampong Speu Province, Kingdom of Cambodia, measuring an aggregate of 172,510 square meters (collectively, the “Properties”). We intended to develop the Properties into an industrial park for rental income.
11 |
Due to difficulties in entering the real estate development and rental business, on February 2, 2018, we engaged in a corporate reorganization and distributed the GC Shares to our shareholders. On March 18, 2018, our subsidiary, G.U. Asia Limited was dissolved.
Change in Control to Current Business
On January 29, 2018, Eldee Tang entered into Share Sale Agreements with four shareholders and former affiliates of the Company to purchase up to 1,675,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share purchase price of US$0.00008, for an aggregate price of US$134,000. On June 15, 2018, the Company effectuated a 1 for 1,000 reverse stock split whereby every 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reduced to one share. The parties effectuated Mr. Tang’s purchase of 750,000 shares such securities (expressed on a post reverse split basis) effective June 15, 2018. Mr. Tang expects to purchase the balance of the 925,000 shares from Kao Wei-Chen, a former affiliate of the Company, in the near future. The foregoing description of the Share Sale Agreement with Kao Wei-Chen is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Quarterly Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with the contemplated change in control, on March 27, 2018, Lim Yew Chuan, the director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of Noble Vici Group, Inc. (the “Company”), resigned from all of his positions as director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company. Concurrently, Eldee Tang was appointed to serve as the Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, together with other members of the new management team.

Our Operations and Future Plans
We are focused on providing users with innovative tools to live and interact in the modern mobile world through its ecosystem of IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce products and services. We integrate blockchain technology with our E-commerce platform to connect consumers and merchants in a dynamic global marketplace via blockchain transactions. We onboard users, consumers and referrers through our Affiliate Incentivized Marketing (AIM) model while merchants are onboarded via our Merchant Incentivized Marketing (MIM) model. Some products and services offered in our ecosystem include procurement of discounted goods and services, referral reward system, mobile games and digital marketing, financial markets apps and a “Business Centre” within the same app. Our E-commerce platform not only offers users the ability to make online purchases, but also the convenience of an O2O (Online to Offline) platform whereby consumers can transact at a discount online while goods and services are distributed at a physical location. This drives traffic to the already weakened retail industry. The Business Centre within our ecosystem is offered through a mobile app and allows users to create their own referral platform within our ecosystem.
We are pursuing a plan of expansion and hope to achieve revenue growth through mass adoption by users and merchants of our platform/ecosystem. We seek to increase our user and merchant base through user incentive programs and brand awareness marketing programs, among other things. We expect to focus on users and merchants located in China and the Asia Pacific region in the foreseeable future. Similarly, we intend to seek corporate growth by listing our securities on a national exchange such as the Nasdaq Capital Markets in the future. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to successfully grow our revenues or list our securities on a national exchange in the future, if ever.
Financial Condition
During the twelve-month period following the date of this annual report, we anticipate that we will not generate any revenue. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain additional financing in order to pursue our plan of operations during and beyond the next twelve months. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding as we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or shareholder loans. However, we do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or shareholder loans to establish our new business.

Key Performance Indicators: Gross Cash Receipts, Supplier Product & Logistics Allowance and Commission Payout.
In addition to Net Revenue, we focus on several non-GAAP key performance indicators to assist us in assessing the strength of product sales and our supply chain across different geographical regions: Gross Cash Receipts, Supplier Product & Logistics Allowance, and Commission Payout.
“Gross Cash Receipts” means proceeds actually received from products sold. This is a non-GAAP indicator that does not correlate to gross revenue and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
“Undelivered items” refers to products sold for which we have received payment but have not yet been delivered to the purchaser. This is a non-GAAP indicator on which we rely to assess the strength and performance of our supply chain, product delivery obligations, product trends and the like.
“Supplier Product & Logistics Allowances” means the fees and costs that we pay to the applicable product supplier to manufacture, package and ship our products to our end customer. This is a non-GAAP indicator on which we rely to determine the cost of manufacturing, packaging and delivering our products.
“Commission Payout” refers to the commission payments that we make to resellers of our products.
The criteria we use to determine how and when we recognize the foregoing key performance indicators are not identical to our revenue recognition policies under U.S. GAAP. By way of example, unlike net sales, which are generally recognized when the product is delivered and both the title and risk and rewards pass to the buyer, as discussed in greater detail in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we recognize Gross Cash Receipts when we receive funds from the buyer, which is generally prior to the product being delivered to the buyer.

The following describes the relationship between our key performance indicators and US GAAP reporting:

2019 | 2018 | |||||||

Other Sales | $ | 757,456 | $ | 221,779 | ||||
Net Revenue | $ | 8,626,718 | $ | 3,623,980 |
For the year ended March 31, 2019, our Gross Cash Receipts net of sales was $35,392,801, representing a 25% year-on-year increase from $28,379,893 for the same period ended 2018. This was attributed to change in product and offering mix from sale of Cordyceps in China to sales from our V-More ecommerce platform. Our customers’ orders are fulfilled on a first in, first out basis over each month. Currently, we have yet to deliver $5,138,454 of products. We hope to progressively fulfill these backorders over the next three months.
Our Supplier Product & Logistics Allowances for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $8,953,825 and $8,969,568 respectively. This represents a marginal change year-on-year. These were mainly attributable to the sale of Cordyceps in China which are primarily distributed through Resellers.
Commission Payout for the year ended March 31, 2019 was $13,431,260 as compared to $12,178,312 for the year ended March 31, 2018. The increase in Commission Payout was due to increased sales from V-More in Malaysia and Indonesia.
For the year ended March 31, 2019, other sales of $757,456 consisted mainly of service fee income and management fee income as compared to $221,779 for the same period of 2018 where other sales consisted primarily of service fee income.
Major Vendors.
Year Ended March 31, 2019 | ||||||||
Vendors | Purchase | Accounts Payable | ||||||
Vendor B | $ | 385,955 | $ | – |
For the year ended March 31, 2019, this is one single vendor representing more than 10% of the Company’s purchase. This vendor (Vendor B) accounted for 15% of the Company’s purchase amounting to $385,955 with $0 of accounts payable.
Year Ended March 31, 2018 | ||||||||
Vendors | Purchase | Accounts Payable | ||||||
Vendor B | $ | 378,136 | $ | 109,478 |
For the year ended March 31, 2018, there is one single vendor (Vendor B) representing more than 10% of the Company’s purchase. This vendor (Vendor B) accounted for 45% of the Company’s purchase amounting to $378,136, with $109,478 of accounts payable.
Gross Profit. We achieved a gross profit of $6,056,575 and $2,791,590 for the year ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The increase in gross profit is primarily attributable to the increase in business and a gradual shift in business focus from Cordyceps and Cerfrion product sales to V-More ecommerce growth in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Operating Expenses. During the year ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, we incurred operating expenses (excluding stock based compensation) of $4,563,513 and $2,551,444 respectively. The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in in our manpower resources to support our increased business and shift in business focus and increased professional fees incurred in connection with being a smaller reporting company, offset by decreased sales and marketing expenses resulting from the consolidation of our group marketing resources.
Net Income (Loss) (excluding stock based compensation). We recorded a net loss of $681,488 and a net income of $246,632 for the year ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The net loss is primarily due to impairment loss on goodwill of $2,036,948, that resulted from the previous acquisition of The Digital Agency Private Limited and Noble Digital Apps Sendirian Berhad. We hope to make progressive changes to our business model over the next few months to further improve our net income.

Stock Based Compensation. During the year ended March 31, 2019, we incurred a one-time, non-cash stock based compensation charge of $123,009,343 through an aggregate issuance of 61,504,672 shares of our common stock, at a market value of $2 per share. The issuance of 35,540,999 shares of our common stock was made to about 1850 sales associates for prior sales and marketing services provided to us and our subsidiaries and affiliates, 21,480,000 shares of our common stock was made to consultants for merchant acquisition in China V-More and 4,483,673 shares of our common stock were issued to our vendor for fulfillment of the vendor’s promotional digital offerings to our customers. We also recorded a deferred compensation in our stockholders’ equity of $10,936,760 which primarily consisted of unvested shares that were issued to our digital consultant pursuant to the V-Consulting Agreement in connection to the supply of certain digital offerings and services to our customers, including without limitation, order fulfilment services with respect to orders from our customers received through the Digital Consultant’s online platform and its related digital offerings.
No stock based compensation was incurred during the year ended March 31, 2018.
Net Income (Loss) (including stock based compensation). We recorded a net loss of $123,690,831 and a net income of $246,632 for the year ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The increase in the net loss is primarily due to a one-time, non-cash stock based compensation charge of $123,009,343 to affiliates, consultants and fulfillment through our digital consultant vendor.

We had accumulated deficits of $125,141,278 and $1,131,214 as of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. The increase in accumulated deficit is mainly due to a one-time, non-cash stock based compensation of $123,009,343 to about 1850 sales associates for prior sales and marketing services provided to us and our subsidiaries and affiliates, merchant acquisition consultants and digital offerings consultant.
Related Party Transactions
From time to time, our shareholders advance funds to the Company on an unsecured, non-interest bearing basis, which funds are due on demand. As of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, Ms. Kao Wei-Chen, our former affiliate, advanced $280,317, all of which is outstanding.

We have never paid dividends on our Common Stock. Our present policy is to apply cash to investments in product development, acquisitions or expansion; consequently, we do not expect to pay dividends on Common Stock in the foreseeable future.
The success of our growth strategy is dependent upon the availability of additional capital resources on terms satisfactory to management as we are not generating revenues from our business operations. Our sources of capital in the past have included the sale of equity securities, which include common stock sold in private transactions, capital leases and stockholder advances. There can be no assurance that we can raise such additional capital resources on satisfactory terms. We believe that our current cash and other sources of liquidity discussed above are adequate to support operations for at least the next 12 months. We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common shares and shareholder loans in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our plan of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management's current judgments. We believe the following accounting policies are critical in the preparation of our financial statements.
• | Basis of presentation |
These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
• | Use of estimates |
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
• | Related parties |
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and Income-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amount due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
21 |
• | Fair value of financial instruments |
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
• | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Stockholders and Board of Directors and of
NOBLE VICI GROUP, INC.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Noble Vici Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, as of March 31, 2019, the Company suffered from an accumulated deficit of $125,141,278 and working capital deficit of $2,227,267. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are described in Note 2.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 audits 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 audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION |
Noble Vici Group, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Gold Union Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 6, 2010 under the name of Advanced Ventures Corp. Effective January 6, 2014, the Company changes its name to “Gold Union Inc.” Effective March 26, 2018, the Company changes its current name to Noble Vici Group, Inc (“NVGI”).
On August 8, 2018, the Company executed a Share Exchange Agreement (“the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Noble Vici Private Limited (“NVPL”), a corporation organized under the laws of Singapore, and Eldee Tang, the sole shareholder of NVPL, and also its Chief Executive Officer and Director. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of the NVPL, representing 1,000,001 ordinary shares of NVPL, in exchange for 140,000,000 shares of its common stock. The Company consummated the acquisition of NVPL on August 8, 2018. The Company relied on the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Regulation D and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Act in selling the Company’s securities to the shareholders of NVPL.
Prior to the acquisition, the Company was considered as a shell company due to its nominal assets and limited operation. Upon the acquisition, NVPL will comprise the ongoing operations of the combined entity and its senior management will serve as the senior management of the combined entity. NVPL is deemed to be the accounting acquirer for accounting purposes. The transaction will be treated as a recapitalization of the Company. Accordingly, the consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company will become the historical financial statements of NVPL, and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will be consolidated with NVPL beginning on the acquisition date. NVPL was the legal acquiree but deemed to be the accounting acquirer. The Company was the legal acquirer but deemed to be the accounting acquiree in the reverse merger. The historical financial statements prior to the acquisition are those of the accounting acquirer (NVPL). Historical stockholders’ equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the merger are retroactively restated (a recapitalization) for the equivalent number of shares received in the merger. Operations prior to the merger are those of the acquirer. After completion of the share exchange transaction, the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities, the operations and cash flow of the accounting acquirer.
The Company is currently engaged in the IoT, Big Data, Blockchain and E-commerce business.

2. | GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As of March 31, 2019, the Company suffered from an accumulated deficit of $125,141,278 and working capital deficit of $2,227,267. The continuation of the Company as a going concern through March 31, 2020 is dependent upon the continued financial support from its stockholders. Management believes the Company is currently pursuing additional financing for its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.
3. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.
• | Basis of presentation |
These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
• | Basis of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

• | Use of estimates and assumptions |
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
• | 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.
• | Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from customers in connection with our normal business activities and are carried at sales value less allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is established to reflect the expected losses of accounts receivable based on past collection history, age, account payment status compared to invoice payment terms and specific individual risks identified. The delinquency of a receivable account is determined based on these factors. The Company does not accrue interest on aged accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2019, there were no allowances for doubtful accounts.
• | Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in first-out basis. At present all inventory relates to finished goods for commercial sales.
• | Purchase deposit |
Purchase deposits represent deposit payments made to vendors for procurement, which are interest-free, unsecured and relieved against accounts payable when goods are received by the Company, or refundable in the next twelve months.
• | Intangible assets |
Intangible assets represented the acquired game right from a related party, which are stated at acquisition cost, less accumulated amortization. The Company amortizes its intangible assets with definite lives over their estimated useful lives and reviews these assets for impairment when an indicator for potential impairment exists. The Company is currently amortizing its intangible assets with definite lives over periods of 3 years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
• | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, 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 and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
Expected useful lives | |
Building | 38 years or lesser than term of lease |
Leasehold improvements | 3-10 years or lesser than term of lease |
Furniture and fittings | 3 years |
Office equipment and computers | 1- 3 years |
Motor vehicle | 2-3.33 years |
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets have been retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
• | Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ”, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, as well as intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that useful lives are no longer appropriate. 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. The Company provided a full impairment loss to its goodwill from business combination as of March 31, 2019. There has been no impairment charge as of March 31, 2018.
• | Revenue recognition |
On April 1, 2018, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and all related amendments were adopted, which provides revised guidance for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that the Company should recognize the revenue for transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The standard defines a five-step process to recognize revenue and requires more judgment and estimates within the revenue recognition process than required under previous U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the product. Depending on the terms of the agreement with the customer, the Company recognizes revenue either at a point-in-time (at shipment or delivery depending on agreed upon terms). Product sales are recorded net of good and service taxes and product returns.
The Company records revenues from the sales of third-party products on a “gross” basis pursuant to ASC 605-45 Revenue Recognition - Principal Agent Considerations, when we are the primary obligor in the arrangement with the end customer and have the risks and rewards as principal in the transaction, such as responsibility for fulfillment, retaining the risk for collection, and establishing the price of the products. If these indicators have not been met, or if indicators of net revenue reporting specified in ASC 605-45 are present in the arrangement, revenue is recognized net of related direct costs.

• | Cost of revenue |
Cost of revenue consists primarily of the cost of goods sold and royalty expenses to the game owners, which are directly attributable to the sales of products and the rendering of online gaming service.
Royalty charges and marketing expenses paid to a related party totaled $468,477 and $442,581, for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
• | Commission credits |
The Company maintains a membership program, whereby certain members earn commission credits, based on the sales volume of certain other members who are sponsored directly or indirectly by the member. Commission credits are redeemable on future spending of the products purchased or playing online games. Commission credits are recorded and classified as operating expense when the products are delivered and revenue is recognized. The estimated liability for unredeemed commission credit is included in commission liability on the accompanying balance sheets. Management reviews the adequacy for the accrual for unredeemed commission credits by periodically evaluating the historical redemption and projected trends.
• | Income taxes |
The Company adopted the ASC 740 Income tax provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under paragraph 740-10-25-13, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Paragraph 740-10-25-13 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13.
The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
• | Uncertain tax positions |
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to its income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the ASC 740 provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

• | Finance leases |
Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the four criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value. At the inception of a finance lease, the Company as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to the Company, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with the Company’s depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to the Company. The periodic rent payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 835-30, “Imputation of Interest”.
• | 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 transaction. 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 consolidated statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollar ("US$") and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s operating subsidiaries in Singapore and Seychelles maintain their books and record in its local currency, Singapore Dollars (“S$”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of changes in stockholder’s equity.
Translation of amounts from S$ into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018:
March 31, 2019 | March 31, 2018 | |||||||
Year-end S$:US$1 exchange rate | 1.3554 | 1.3632 | ||||||
Annual average S$:US$1 exchange rate | 1.3578 | 1.3588 |
• | Comprehensive income |
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.

• | Stock based compensation |
For stock options granted as consideration for services rendered by non-employees, the Company recognizes compensation expense in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 505-50 (“ASC 505-50”), “Equity Based Payments to Non- Employees.” Non-employee restricted common stock and stock option grants that do not vest immediately upon grant, and whose terms are known, are recorded as an expense over the vesting period of the underlying instrument granted. At the end of each financial reporting period prior to vesting, the value of the instruments granted, will be re-measured using the fair value of the Company’s common stock and the stock-based compensation recognized during the period will be adjusted accordingly.
For restricted common stock and stock option awards that have performance-based conditions, the Company recognizes the stock-based compensation expense at the fair value of the award based on the date that the performance conditions have been met. The Company calculates the fair value of the stock options using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted common stock awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable measurement date.
The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.
To date, the Company has not granted any stock-based compensation awards to employees.
• | Segment reporting |
ASC Topic 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 geographical areas, business segments and major customers in consolidated financial statements. For the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company operates in one reportable operating segment in Singapore and Asian Region.
• | Retirement plan costs |

Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and Income-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the consolidated financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amount due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
• | Commitments and contingencies |
The Company follows the ASC 450-20, Commitments to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

• | Fair value of financial instruments |
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
• | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that
a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company's financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences
of the change to its consolidated financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the
Company's consolidated financial statements properly reflect the change.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 has been modified multiple times since its initial release. This ASU outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09, as amended, becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. As an Emerging Growth Company (we expect our Emerging Growth Company status to expire on March 31, 2020), the Company is allowed to adopt new, or updated, accounting standards using the same time frame that applies to private companies. The Company will adopt this standard on April 1, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The main difference between the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 and previous U.S. GAAP is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. ASU No. 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases, and the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous U.S. GAAP. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous U.S. GAAP. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This ASU is effective for public business entities in fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of any interim or annual reporting period. As an Emerging Growth Company, the Company is allowed to adopt new, or updated, accounting standards using the same time frame that applies to private companies. The Company will adopt this standard on April 1, 2020. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting , or ASU 2018-07. ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. The Company will adopt ASU 2018-07 prospectively as of April 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or related disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13), which adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Under the new guidance, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, or valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. However, public business entities will be required to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and related changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-13 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods. Management is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Deferred tax | – | – | ||||||
Income tax expense | $ | 184,275 | $ | 33,094 |
The effective tax rate in the years presented is the result of the mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that apply a broad range of income tax rates. The Company and its subsidiaries are mainly operated in Republic of Singapore and Republic of Seychelles that are subject to taxes in the jurisdictions in which they operate, as follows:
United States of America
NVGI is registered in the State of Delaware and is subject to US federal corporate income tax rate of 21% for the year ended March 31, 2019. No provision for income taxes have been made as NVGI has generated no taxable income for the years presented. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its income tax provision. The Company has not accrued or paid interest or penalties which were not material to its results of operations for the years presented.
The 2017 Act reduces the corporate tax rate from 34% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. For net operating losses arising after December 31, 2017, the 2017 Act limits a taxpayer’s ability to utilize net operating losses carryforwards to 80% of taxable income. In addition, net operating losses arising after 2017 can be carried forward indefinitely, but carryback is generally prohibited. Net operating losses generated in tax years beginning before January 1, 2018 will not be subject to the taxable income limitation. The 2017 Act would generally eliminate the carryback of all net operating losses arising in a tax year ending after 2017 and instead would permit all such net operating losses to be carried forward indefinitely.
As of March 31, 2019, the Company incurred $722,963 of cumulative net operating losses which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2039, if unutilized. The Company has provided for a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets of $151,822 on the expected future tax benefits from the net operating loss carryforwards as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.
Republic of Singapore
The Company’s operating subsidiaries are registered in Republic of Singapore and are subject to the Singapore corporate income tax at a standard income tax rate of 17% on the assessable income arising in Singapore during its tax year.

(b) | Major vendors |
For the year ended March 31, 2019, this is one single vendor representing more than 10% of the Company’s purchase. This vendor (Vendor B) accounted for 15% of the Company’s purchase amounting to $385,955 with $0 of accounts payable.
For the year ended March 31, 2018, there is one single vendor (Vendor B) representing more than 10% of the Company’s purchase. This vendor (Vendor B) accounted for 45% of the Company’s purchase amounting to $378,136, with $109,478 of accounts payable.
(c) | Credit risk |
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
(d) | Interest rate risk |
As the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Company’s interest-rate risk arises from borrowings under finance lease. The Company manages interest rate risk by varying the issuance and maturity dates variable rate debt, limiting the amount of variable rate debt, and continually monitoring the effects of market changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, borrowing under finance lease was at fixed rates.
(e) | Economic and political risk |
The Company’s major operations are conducted in Republic of Singapore. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in Singapore, as well as the general state of Singapore’s economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
(f) | Exchange rate risk |
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady; therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of the fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of S$ converted to US$ on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in political and economic environments without notice.
17. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
(a) | Operating lease commitments |

ITEM 9A. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and concluded that (i) there continue to be material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, that the weaknesses constitute a “deficiency” and that this deficiency could result in misstatements of the foregoing accounts and disclosures that could result in a material misstatement to the financial statements for the period covered by this report that would not be detected, and (ii) accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019.
However, it should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Management's Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the assets of the Company 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 evaluations 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. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control over financial reporting will provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.
23 |
As of March 31, 2019, management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, 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 that evaluation, our management concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. 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.
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) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of March 31, 2019.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2) above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

We believe that Mr. Tang’s deep experience in e-commerce, big data and internet industries qualifies him to serve on our Board of Directors.

Family Relationships.
None of Messrs. Tang or Yip has a direct family relationship with any of the Company’s directors or executive officers, or any person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
No executive officer or director has been involved in the last ten years in any of the following:
· | Any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business or property of such person, or of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
· | Any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
· | Being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; |
· | Being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; |

Board Committees and Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not currently have a standing audit, nominating or compensation committee of the board of directors, or any committee performing similar functions. Our board of directors performs the functions of audit, nominating and compensation committees. As of the date of this report, no member of our board of directors qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. We hope to attract a director who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as our business operations mature.
Director Nominations
On April 26, 2018, the Board and stockholders holding a majority of our issued and outstanding securities authorized, adopted and approved by written consent in lieu of a special meeting the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Restated Bylaws”). The Restated Bylaws contain new provisions that may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of the Company. These provisions are designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our Board and to discourage certain types of coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. Among other things, the Restated Certificate and the Restated Bylaws provide that:
· | Our stockholders may not call special meetings of our stockholders unless they hold in excess of 50% of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders. Stockholders requesting a special meeting to act on any matter that may properly be considered at a meeting of stockholders must submit a written request to the secretary of the Corporation. Such meeting request must contain all information required pursuant to the Restated Bylaws, be sent to the secretary by registered mail, return receipt requested, and be received by the secretary within 60 days after the record date; |
26 |
· | In any annual meeting of our stockholders, stockholders may not act on any matter not properly brought before the meeting. A matter is considered to have been properly brought before a meeting if the stockholder has given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Corporation and such business is a proper matter for action by the stockholders. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall set forth all information required pursuant to the Restated Bylaws and shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation not earlier than the 150th day nor later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement for the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced or delayed by more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely, such notice must be so delivered not earlier than the 150th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the later of the 120th day prior to the date of such annual meeting, as originally convened, or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The public announcement of a postponement or adjournment of an annual meeting shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above; |
· | Our stockholders may not nominate persons to our Board unless they comply with certain nomination procedures. A stockholder must deliver notice of its intent to nominate persons to be elected to the Board to the secretary of the Company not earlier than the 150th day nor later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement for the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced or delayed by more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely, such notice must be so delivered not earlier than the 150th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the later of the 120th day prior to the date of such annual meeting, as originally convened, or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The public announcement of a postponement or adjournment of an annual meeting shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. Such stockholder’s notice must include all information required pursuant to the Restated Bylaws, which shall include information regarding (i) the stockholder, (ii) any person acting in concert with such stockholder, (iii) any beneficial owner of shares of stock of the Corporation owned of record or beneficially by such stockholder (other than a stockholder that is a depositary) and (iv) any person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such stockholder or any of the persons described in sections (ii) and (iii) above. Such notice shall contain, among other things, a written undertaking certifying that such proposed nominee (a) is not, and will not become a party to, any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the Company in connection with service or action as a director that has not been disclosed to the Company; |
· | Our Board may designate the terms of, and issue a new series of preferred stock with, voting or other rights without stockholders approval; |
· | Our directors have the power to adopt, amend or repeal our bylaws without stockholders approval; |
· | Our stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors; and |
· | We will indemnify directors and officers against losses that they may incur in investigations and legal proceedings resulting from their services to us, which may include services in connection with takeover defense measures. |
Such notice shall contain, among other things, a written undertaking certifying that such proposed nominee (a) is not, and will not become a party to, any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the Company in connection with service or action as a director that has not been disclosed to the Company.
These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions might also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
27 |
Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors.
Except as set forth above, we have not established formal procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s board of directors.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our directors, officers, and employees. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is filed as Exhibit 14 to this Annual Report and may be obtained free of charge by contacting us at the address or telephone number listed on the cover page hereof.
ITEM 11. | Executive Compensation. |
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Currently, our executive directors and officers receive cash compensation for services in such capacities. We expect to establish an incentive compensation plan as our company matures. We expect that our executive compensation philosophy will be to create a long-term direct relationship between pay and our performance. Our executive compensation program will be designed to provide a balanced total compensation package over the executive’s career with us. The compensation program objectives will be to attract, motivate and retain the qualified executives that help ensure our future success, to provide incentives for increasing our profits by awarding executives when corporate goals are achieved and to align the interests of executives and long-term stockholders. We expect the compensation package of our named executive officers to consist of the following main elements:
1. | base salary for our executives that is competitive relative to the market, and that reflects individual performance, retention and other relevant considerations; |
2. | incentive compensation consisting of stock options, restricted stock and the like; and |
3. | discretionary bonus awards payable in cash and or securities of the Company tied to the satisfaction of corporate objectives. |
Process for Setting Executive Compensation
As we do not have Compensation Committee, our Board will be responsible for developing and overseeing the implementation of our philosophy with respect to the compensation of executives and for monitoring the implementation and results of the compensation philosophy to ensure compensation remains competitive, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value and rewards superior performance. The Board will annually review and approve for each named executive officer, and particularly with regard to the Chief Executive Officer, all components of the executive’s compensation. The Board may award discretionary bonuses to each of the named executives, and reviews and approves the process and factors (including individual and corporate performance measures and actual performance versus such measures) used by the Chief Executive Officer to recommend such awards. Additionally, the Board will review and approve the base salary, equity-incentive awards (if any) and any other special or supplemental benefits of the named executive officers.
We expect out Chief Executive Officer to periodically provide the Board with an evaluation of each named executive officer’s performance, based on the individual performance goals and objectives developed by the Chief Executive Officer at the beginning of the year, as well as other factors. The Board will provide an evaluation for the Chief Executive Officer. These evaluations will serve as the bases for bonus recommendations and changes in the compensation arrangements of our named executives.
28 |
Our Compensation Peer Group
We expect to engage in informal market analysis in evaluating our executive compensation arrangements. As the Company and its businesses mature, we may retain compensation consultants that will assist us in developing a formal benchmark and selecting a compensation peer group of companies similar to us in size or business for the purpose of comparing executive compensation levels.
Program Components
We expect our executive compensation program to consist of the following elements:
Base Salary
Our base salary structure will be designed to encourage internal growth, attract and retain new talent, and reward strong leadership that will sustain our growth and profitability. The base salary for each named executive officer will reflect our past and current operating profits, the named executive officer’s individual contribution to our success throughout his career, internal pay equity and informal market data regarding comparable positions within similarly situated companies. In determining and setting base salary, the Board will consider all of these factors, though it will not assign specific weights to any factor. The Board will generally review the base salary for each named executive officer on an annual basis. For each of our named executive officers, we expect to review base salary data internally obtained by the Company for comparable executive positions in similarly situated companies to ensure that the base salary rate for each executive is competitive relative to the market.
Discretionary Bonus
The objectives of our bonus awards will be to encourage and reward our employees, including the named executive officers, who contribute to and participate in our success by their ability, industry, leadership, loyalty or exceptional service and to recruit additional executives who will contribute to that success.
Each of our named executive officers will be eligible for consideration for a discretionary cash bonus. The Chief Executive Officer will make recommendations regarding bonus awards for the named executive officers and the Board provides the bonus recommendation for the Chief Executive Officer. However, the Board/Compensation Committee will have sole and final authority and discretion in designating to whom awards are made, the size of the award, if any, and its terms and conditions. The bonus recommendation for each of the named executive officers depends on a number of factors, including (i) the performance of the Company for the year, (ii) the satisfaction of certain individual and corporate performance measures, and (iii) other factors which the Board may deem relevant. The Company did not award any cash bonuses during fiscal year 2019.
Stock Holdings
The Board recognizes the importance of having a portion of the named executive officers’ compensation be paid in the form of equity, to help align the executives’ interests with the interests of the Company’s stockholders. Initially, we expect the Board to emphasize the cash-based portion of our compensation program over a stock program because it believes the discretionary nature of the cash-based compensation gives it the needed flexibility to factor in and reward the attainment of longer-term goals for the Company and the executives, as the Board deems appropriate.
We have not timed nor do we plan to time our release of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

We currently have no formal plan for compensating our directors for their services in their capacity as directors, although we may elect to issue stock options to such persons from time to time. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of our board of directors. Our board of directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director.
Compensation Risk Management
Our Board of directors and human resources staff conducted an assessment of potential risks that may arise from our compensation programs. Based on this assessment, we concluded that our policies and practices do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk taking that would be reasonably likely to have material adverse effect on the Company. The assessment included our cash incentive programs, which awards non-executives with cash bonuses for punctuality. Our compensation programs are substantially identical among business units, corporate functions and global locations (with modifications to comply with local regulations as appropriate). The risk-mitigating factors considered in this assessment included:
· | the alignment of pay philosophy, peer group companies and compensation amounts relative to local competitive practices to support our business objectives; and |
· | effective balance of cash, short- and long-term performance periods, caps on performance-based award schedules and financial metrics with individual factors and Board and management discretion. |

ITEM 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence. |
Other than as disclosed below, there are no transactions during our two most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, or any currently proposed transaction, in which our Company was or to be a participant and the amount exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our Company’s total assets at year end for our last two completed years, and in which any of our directors, officers or principal stockholders, or any other related person as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K, had or have any direct or indirect material interest.
From time to time, our shareholders advance funds to the Company on an unsecured, non-interest bearing basis, which funds are due on demand. As of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, Ms. Kao Wei-Chen, our former affiliate, advanced $280,317, all of which is outstanding.
Transactions of NVPL

From time to time, Eldee Tang, our Chief Executive Officer and Director, advances funds to the Company for working capital purposes. Those advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand. The imputed interest on the loan from a related party was not significant. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company owed Eldee Tang a balance of $91,483 and $69,069 respectively.
We have not adopted policies or procedures for approval of related person transactions but review them on a case-by-case basis. We believe that all related party transactions were on terms at least as favorable as we would have secured in arm’s-length transactions with third parties. Except as set forth above, we have not entered into any material transactions with any director, executive officer, and promoter, beneficial owner of five percent or more of our common stock, or family members of such persons.

Director Independence
Our board of directors currently consists of Eldee Tang, our Chief Executive Officer, who does not qualify as an independent director under the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market or the NYSE. As of the date hereof, we have not adopted a standard of independence nor do we have a policy with respect to independence requirements for our board members or that a majority of our board be comprised of “independent directors.”
ITEM 14. | Principal AccountING Fees And Services. |
HKCM CPA & Co. (Predecessor firm: HKCMCPA Company Limited) (“HKCMCPA”) audited our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019, and 2018.
All audit work was performed by the full time employees of HKCMCPA for the above mentioned fiscal years. Our board of directors does not have an audit committee. The functions customarily delegated to an audit committee are performed by our full board of directors.
