There can be no assurances that there will be adequate financing available to the Company and the consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company has taken certain restructuring steps to provide the necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps included: (1) Tightly budgeting and controlling all expenses; (2) Expanding product lines and recruiting a strong sales team to significantly increase sales revenue and profit in 2017; (3) The Company plans to continue actively seeing additional funding opportunities to improve and expand upon its product lines.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivables are carried at original invoice amount less estimates made for doubtful receivables. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis based on a review of the current status of existing receivables, account aging, historical collection experience, subsequent collections, management's evaluation of the effect of existing economic conditions, and other known factors. The provision is provided for the above estimates made for all doubtful receivables. Account balances are charged off against the allowance only when the Company considers it is probable that a receivable will not be recovered. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Inventory — Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by using the specific identification method. The Company periodically reviews the age and turnover of its inventory to determine whether any inventory has become obsolete or has declined in value, and charges to operations for known and anticipated inventory obsolescence. Inventory consists substantially of finished goods and is net of an allowance for slow-moving inventory of $444,117 and $416,428 at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:

Expenditures for major renewals and betterment that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting profit or loss is reflected in the statement of income for the period. The accumulated depreciation was $116,136 and $108,058 at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Depreciation expense was $874 and $1,120 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Intangible Assets — Include cost of patent applications that are deferred and charged to operations over their useful lives. The accumulated amortization is $31,303 and $28,580 at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets was $805 and $756 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

F-5

Revenue Recognition — The Company derives revenues from the sale of equipment and parts to customers. The Company’s standard shipping term is Free on Board (FOB) shipping point. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment for the sales under the term FOB shipping point. For the sales under other shipping term arrangements, such as FOB destination, the Company recognizes revenue when title passes to and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer based on the terms of the sales. Usually no returns, discounts or other allowances are provided to customers. Shipping and handling charges to customers are included in net sales. Shipping and handling charges incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

Leases — Lease agreements are evaluated to determine if they are capital leases meeting any of the following criteria at inception: (a) Transfer of ownership; (b) Bargain purchase option; (c) The lease term is equal to 75 percent or more of the estimated economic life of the leased property; (d) The present value at the beginning of the lease term of the minimum lease payments, excluding that portion of the payments representing executory costs such as insurance, maintenance, and taxes to be paid by the lessor, including any profit thereon, equals or exceeds 90 percent of the excess of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at lease inception over any related investment tax credit retained by the lessor and expected to be realized by the lessor.

If at its inception a lease meets any of the four lease criteria above, the lease is classified by the lessee as a capital lease; and if none of the four criteria are met, the lease is classified by the lessee as an operating lease.

Research and Development Expenses — Research and development costs are generally expensed as incurred.

Statement of cash flows — In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies, and translated to the reporting currency using an average foreign exchange rate for the reporting period. As a result, amounts related to changes in assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some or all of any deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Stock Based Compensation — The Company applies the fair value provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires the recognition of compensation expense, using a fair-value based method, for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options. ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the grant date using an option pricing model. The Company does not have any awards of stock-based compensation issued and outstanding at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Loss Per Share — The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”) which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic earnings per share have been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of the diluted loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not have any common equivalent shares.

F-6

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its long lived assets for impairment annually or more often if events and circumstances warrant. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. Management has determined that no impairments of long-lived assets currently exist.

Foreign-currency Transactions — Foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollar (“NTD”) at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Gains or losses resulting from the application of different foreign exchange rates when cash in foreign currency is converted into New Taiwan dollar, or when foreign-currency receivables or payables are settled, are credited or charged to income in the year of conversion or settlement. On the balance sheet dates, the balances of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are restated at the prevailing exchange rates and the resulting differences are charged to current income except for those foreign currencies denominated investments in shares of stock where such differences are accounted for as translation adjustments under stockholders’ equity.

Translation Adjustment — The Company financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar ($), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functional currency is New Taiwan dollar (“NTD”). Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of income. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the statements of income.

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translates the assets and liabilities into U.S. dollar ($) using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of operations and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation from NTD into U.S. dollar are recorded in stockholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Reclassifications — Certain classifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces diversity in practice by providing guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. ASU 2016-15 is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

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

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

            This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this discussion and analysis by management, contains or incorporates forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “could,” “possibly,” “probably,” anticipates,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” or “should” or other variations or similar words. No assurances can be given that the future results anticipated by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations. The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied herein are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

            The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, were $204,016, as compared to $437,277 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. This represents a decrease of $233,261 or approximately 53.3% compared to the prior year period. The decrease in net sales is primarily the result of a decrease in laser marking machine sales.

Cost of sales decreased by $71,551 or approximately 38.9% to $112,472 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared to $184,023 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Gross profit (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $91,544, compared to $253,254, for the same period in 2016. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was approximately 45% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to approximately 58% in the same period in 2016. The lower gross profit rate in the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to the sales of laser making machine with lower margin.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $159,345. This was a decrease of $25,190, or approximately 14%, as compared to the same period in 2016. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily the result of the decrease in salary, and travel expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, income (loss) from operations increased to $(67,801) as compared to $68,719 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. This represents a decreased income of $136,520 comparing the two periods. The decrease of income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017, is primarily the result of a decrease in gross profit, which is partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses.

4

Other income (expenses) was $3,362 and $(969) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This represents an increased income of $4,331 or an increase of approximately 447%. The main reason for this increased other income was due to an increase in gain on foreign currency exchange, which is partially offset by an increase in interest expense, as compared to the prior year period.

Our net loss was $(64,439) for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a net income of $41,210 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decreased net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due to the reasons described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $53,598 at March 31, 2017, and $37,643 at December 31, 2016. Our total current assets were $233,874 at March 31, 2017, as compared to $244,862 at December 31, 2016. Our total current liabilities were $715,732 at March 31, 2017, as compared to $636,549 at December 31, 2016.

We had working capital at March 31, 2017, of $(481,858) compared with working capital of $(391,687) at December 31, 2016. This decrease in working capital was primarily due to an increase in accrued expenses, due to related parties, and loan from shareholders, which is partial offset by increases in cash, account receivable, and prepaid expense, and decrease in inventory and accounts payable.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was $2,592, a decrease of $89,415 compared to $92,007 net cash provided in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Net cash flow provided in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was primarily due to net income, increases in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, and foreign currency exchange gain, and decreases in inventory, accounts payable and advance from customers

Net change in cash and cash equivalents was a decrease of $15,955 during the three months ended March 31. 2017.

Inflation

Our opinion is that inflation has not had a material effect on our operations and is not expected to have any material effect on our operations.

Climate Change

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

N/A.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (1) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms.

There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

None.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors.

The risk factors set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed on March 29, 2017, have not changed except that we disclosed in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, a new risk factor related to our securities as follows:

The market price of our common stock may limit its eligibility for clearing house deposit.

We are advised that if the market price for shares of our common stock is less than $0.10 per share, Depository Trust Company and other securities clearing firms may decline to accept our shares for deposit and refuse to clear trades in our securities. This would materially and adversely affect the marketability and liquidity of our shares and, accordingly, may materially and adversely affect the value of an investment in our common stock.
