PHI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS
INTRODUCTION
PHI Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “PHI”) is engaged in mergers and acquisitions as a principal (www.phiglobal.com). The Company has adopted plans to acquire established operating businesses in selective industries and invest in various ventures that may potentially create significant long-term value for our shareholders. In addition, the Company provides corporate finance services, including merger and acquisition advisory and consulting services for client companies through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. (www.phicapitalholdings.com). Furthermore, the Company has been working to establish a Luxembourg Bank Fund in accordance with the “Reserved Alternative Investment Fund” (“RAIF”), known as PHILUX GLOBAL FUNDS, together with a number of sub-funds for agricultural, energy and real estate projects as well as other investments.
BACKGROUND
Originally incorporated on June 8, 1982 as JR Consulting, Inc., a Nevada corporation, the Company applied for a Certificate of Domestication and filed Articles of Domestication to become a Wyoming corporation on September 20, 2017. In the beginning, the Company was foremost engaged in mergers and acquisitions and had an operating subsidiary, Diva Entertainment, Inc., which operated two modeling agencies, one in New York and one in California. Following the business combination with Providential Securities, Inc., a California-based financial services company, the Company changed its name to Providential Securities, Inc., a Nevada corporation, in January 2000. The Company then changed its name to Providential Holdings, Inc. in February 2000. In October 2000, Providential Securities withdrew its securities brokerage membership and ceased its financial services business. Subsequently, in April 2009, the Company changed its name to PHI Group, Inc. From October 2000 to October 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries were engaged in mergers and acquisitions advisory and consulting services, real estate and hospitality development, mining, oil and gas, telecommunications, technology, healthcare, private equity, and special situations. In October 2011, the Company discontinued the operations of Providential Vietnam Ltd., Philand Ranch Limited, a United Kingdom corporation (together with its subsidiaries Philand Ranch - Singapore, Philand Corporation - US, and Philand Vietnam Ltd. - Vietnam), PHI Gold Corporation (formerly PHI Mining Corporation, a Nevada corporation), and PHI Energy Corporation (a Nevada corporation), and mainly focused on acquisition and development opportunities in energy and natural resource businesses. At the present, the Company is engaged in mergers and acquisitions as a principal and investments in natural resources, energy, agriculture, consumer goods, technology and special situations. In addition, PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PHI, continues to provide corporate and project finance services, including merger and acquisition (M&A) advisory and consulting services for other companies in a variety of industries. Furthermore, PHI is in the process of completing the establishment of PHILUX Global Funds, a Luxembourg Bank Fund in accordance with the “Reserved Alternative Investment Fund” (“RAIF”), and a number of initial sub-funds thereunder for agricultural, energy, real estate projects and other investments, in accordance with the Luxembourg Law of July 23, 2016 relative to reserved alternative investment funds, Law of August 23, 2016 relative to commercial companies, and Modified Law of July 12, 2013 relative to alternative investment fund managers. The Company has also been working with special international partners and the Chu Lai Open Economic Zone Authority to potentially develop and establish an Asia Diamond Exchange in the Free-Trade Zone of Quang Nam Province, Vietnam. No assurances can be made that the Company will be successful in achieving its plans.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PHI Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., American Pacific Resources, Inc., American Pacific Plastics, Inc., PHI Luxembourg Development S.A., and its previously discontinued operations, collectively referred to as the “Company.” All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2018. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal reoccurring accruals have been made to the financial statements. The results of operation for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.
Typically, each investment in marketable securities represents less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding common stock and stock equivalents of the investee, and each security is quoted on either the OTC Markets or other public exchanges. As such, each investment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115.
Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in earnings based upon the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. On March 31, 2019, the marketable securities were recorded at $873,498, based upon the fair value of the marketable securities at that time.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair Value - Definition and Hierarchy
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
A fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs are to be used when available.
7 |
Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market or income approach are used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
Fair value is a market-based measure, based on assumptions of prices and inputs considered from the perspective of a market participant that are current as of the measurement date, rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including; type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.
To the extent that valuation is based upon models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Fund in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair Value - Valuation Techniques and Inputs
The Company holds and may invest public securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC), private securities, real estate, convertible securities, interest bearing securities and other types of securities and has adopted specific techniques for their respective valuations.
Equity Securities in Public Companies
Unrestricted
The Company values investments in securities that are freely tradable and listed on major securities exchanges at their last reported sales price as of the valuation date. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Securities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Restricted
Securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC) where there are formal restrictions that limit (i.e. Rule 144 holding periods and underwriter’s lock-ups) their sale shall be valued at the closing price on the date of valuation less applicable discounts. The Company may apply a discount to securities with Rule 144 restrictions. Additional discounts may be assessed if the Company believes there are other mitigating factors which warrant the additional discounting. When determining potential additional discounts, factors that will be taken into consideration include, but are not limited to; securities’ trading characteristics, volume, length and overall impact of the restriction as well as other macro-economic factors. Valuations should be discounted appropriately until the securities may be freely traded.
8 |
If it has been determined that the exchange or OTC listed price does not accurately reflect fair market value, the Company may elect to treat the security as a private company and apply an alternative valuation method.
Investments in restricted securities of public companies may be included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, to the extent that significant inputs used to determine liquidity discounts are not observable, investments in restricted securities in public companies may be categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, short-term notes payable, convertible notes, derivative liability and accounts payable.
As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is primarily attributed to the short maturities of these instruments.
Effective July 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820 (previously SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements and adopted this Statement for the assets and liabilities shown in the table below. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on our fair value measurements. At December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any nonfinancial assets or nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value. ASC 820 requires that financial assets and liabilities that are reported at fair value be categorized as one of the types of investments based upon the methodology mentioned in Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 above for determining fair value.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below. The Company also has convertible notes and derivative liabilities as disclosed in this report that are measured at fair value on a regular basis until paid off or exercised.
Available-for-sale securities
The Company uses various approaches to measure fair value of available-for-sale securities, while applying the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures, specified in ASC 820. Our Level 1 securities were measured using the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
The company’s policy regarding the transfers in and/or out of Level 3 depends on the trading activity of the security, the volatility of the security, and other observable units which clearly represents the fair value of the security. If a level 3 security can be measured using a more fairly represented fair value, we will transfer these securities either into Level 1 or Level 2, depending on the type of inputs.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had accounts receivable in the amount of $432,000.
PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets from three to five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

REVENUE RECOGNITION STANDARDS
ASC 606-10 provides the following overview of how revenue is recognized from an entity’s contracts with customers: An entity recognizes revenue to depict the 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 or services.
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Step 3: Determine the transaction price – The transaction price is the amount of consideration in a contract to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer.
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract – Any entity typically allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on the basis of the relative standalone selling prices of each distinct good or service promised in the contract.
Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation – An entity recognizes revenue when (or as) it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service).
The amount of revenue recognized is the amount allocated to the satisfied performance obligation. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time (typically for promises to transfer goods to a customer) or over time (typically for promises to transfer service to a customer). For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity recognizes revenue over time by selecting an appropriate method for measuring the entity’s progress toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. (Paragraphs 606-10 25-23 through 25-30).
In addition, ASC 606-10 contains guidance on the disclosures related to revenue, and notes the following:
It also includes a cohesive set of disclosure requirements that would result in an entity providing users of financial statements with comprehensive information about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts with customers. Specifically, Section 606-10-50 requires an entity to provide information about:
- Revenue recognized from contracts with customers, including disaggregation of revenue into appropriate categories.
- Contract balances, including the opening and closing balances of receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities.
- Performance obligations, including when the entity typically satisfies its performance obligations and the transaction prices is that is allocated to the remaining performance obligations in a contract.
- Significant judgments, and changes in judgments, made in applying the requirements to those contracts.
Additionally, Section 340-40-50 requires an entity to provide quantitative and/or qualitative information about assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer.
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 606-10. The Company recognizes consulting and advisory fee revenues in accordance with the above-mentioned guidelines and expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is incurred.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The Company provides its service and receives marketable securities upon execution of transactions. Consequently, the value of the securities received from customers can be affected by economic fluctuations and each customer’s business growth. The actual realized value of these securities could be significantly different than recorded value.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Update No. 2018-13 – August 2018
Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement
Modifications: The following disclosure requirements were modified in Topic 820:
1. In lieu of a roll-forward for Level 3 fair value measurements, a nonpublic entity is required to disclose transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities.
2. For investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, an entity is required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly.
3. The amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date.
Additions: The following disclosure requirements were added to Topic 820; however, the disclosures are not required for nonpublic entities:
1. The changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period.
2. The range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.
The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.
Update No. 2018-07 – June 2018
Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting
Main Provisions: The amendments in this Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply the requirements of Topic 718 to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
11 |
The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year.
Update No. 2017-13 - September 2017
Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), issued in May 2014 and codified in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and No. 2016-02.
The transition provisions in ASC Topic 606 require that a public business entity and certain other specified entities adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting 3 periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. FN2 All other entities are required to adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019.
Update No. 2016-10 - April 2016
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing
The core principle of the guidance in Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the 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 or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:
1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
3. Determine the transaction price.
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. Rather, the amendments in this Update clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas.
The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company’s financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the implementation of these pronouncements would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 15 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

On September 23, 2016, the Company issued incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options to certain key employee(s) (Henry Fahman – CEO/CFO) and directors (Tam Bui, Henry Fahman, and Frank Hawkins constitute the Board of Directors) as deferred compensation. The options allow the holders to acquire the Company’s Common Stock at the fair exercise price of the Company’s Common Stock on the grant date of each option at $0.24 per share, based on the 10-days’ volume-weighted average price prior to the grant date. The number of options is equal to a total of 6,520,000. The options terminate seven years from the date of grant and become vested and exercisable after one year from the grant date. The following assumptions were used in the Monte Carlo analysis by Doty Scott Enterprises, Inc., an independent valuation firm, to determine the fair value of the stock options:
Risk-free interest rate | 1.18 | % | ||
Expected life | 7 years | |||
Expected volatility | 239.3 | % | ||
Vesting is based on a one-year cliff from grant date. |
22 |
Annual attrition rates were used in the valuation since ongoing employment was condition for vesting the options.
The fair value of the Company’s Stock Options as of issuance valuation date is as follows:
Fair Value at | ||||||||||||||
Holder | Issue Date | Maturity Date | Stock Options | Exercise Price | Issuance | |||||||||
Tam Bui | 9/23/2016 | 9/23/2023 | 875,000 | Fixed price: $0.24 | $ | 219,464 | ||||||||
Frank Hawkins | 9/23/2016 | 9/23/2023 | 875,000 | Fixed price: $0.24 | $ | 219,464 | ||||||||
Henry Fahman | 9/23/2016 | 9/23/2023 | 4,770,000 | Fixed price: $0.24 | $ | 1,187,984 |

NOTE 17 – CONTRACTS AND COMMITMENTS
EQUITY LINE FACILITY - INVESTMENT AGREEMENT WITH AZURE CAPITAL, INC.
On March 6, 2017, PHI Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and Azure Capital, a Massachusetts Corporation (the “Investor”) entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), each dated March 6, 2017 between the Company and the Investor.
Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investor committed to purchase, subject to certain restrictions and conditions, up to $10,000,000 worth of the Company’s common stock, over a period of 36 months from the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the resale of shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The Company agreed to initially reserve 20,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. In the event the Company cannot register a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Company will use its best efforts to authorize and reserve for issuance the number of shares required for the Company to perform its obligations in connection with the Investment Agreement as soon as reasonable practical.
The Company may in its discretion draw on the facility from time to time, as and when the Company determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum number of shares that the Company is entitled to put to the Investor in any one draw down notice shall not exceed shares with a purchase price of $250,000 or 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the Company’s Common Stock for the three (3) Trading Days prior to the applicable put notice date multiplied by the average of the three (3) daily closing prices immediately preceding the put date, calculated in accordance with the Investment Agreement. The Company may deliver a notice for a subsequent put from time to time, after the pricing period for the prior put has been completed.
The purchase price shall be set at ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately following the put notice date. On each put notice submitted to the Investor by the Company, the Company shall specify a suspension price for that put. In the event the price of Company’s Common Stock falls below the suspension price, the put shall be temporarily suspended. The put shall resume at such time the price of the Company’s Common Stock is above the suspension price, provided the dates for the pricing period for that particular put are still valid. In the event the pricing period has been complete, any shares above the suspension price due to the Investor shall be sold to the Investor by the Company at the suspension price under the terms of the Investment Agreement. The suspension price for a put may not be changed by the Company once submitted to the Investor.
23 |
There are put restrictions applied on days between the draw down notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, the Company shall not be entitled to deliver another draw down notice. In addition, the Investor will not be obligated to purchase shares if the Investor’s total number of shares beneficially held at that time would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, the Company is not permitted to draw on the facility unless there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the shares.
The Investment Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and the Investor are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for, among other things, any losses or liabilities they may suffer as a result of any breach by the other party of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). Investor should read the Investment Agreement together with the other information concerning the Company that the Company publicly files in reports and statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file one or more registrations statements with the SEC within twenty-one (21) days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement to register the resale by the Investor of the shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. In addition, the Company is obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days after the registration statement is filed.
This Investment Agreement was amended on August 3, 2017 to allow for the reservation of 65,445,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the corrected Investment Agreement.
The Company has filed a S-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to include 7,936,600 shares of its Common Stock for issuance in connection with the first tranche of the Equity Line Facility. The S-1 Registration Statement, as amended, was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 11, 2018. The Company has not accessed the Equity Line Facility and intends to do so only when the Company’s stock prices reach levels that its management deems appropriate.
BUSINESS CONSULANCY AND STRUCTURING AGENCY AGREEMENT TO SET UP INSTITUTIONAL BANK FUNDS IN LUXEMBOURG
On November 30, 2017, the Company signed an agreement with a structuring agent and legal experts to set up a bank fund in Luxembourg in order to provide financing for the Company’s and its clients’ projects.
The Reserved Alternative Investment Fund (RAIF) can be established under the form of common funds (“FCP”), investment companies with variable capital (“SICAV”) or under the form that does not have to have the legal form of a SICAV or an FCP. There will be no restriction in terms of eligible assets. RAIFs are free to introduce any kind of assets and financial instruments in their investment policy. According to the Luxembourg Law of July 12, 2013, RAIFs must entrust their assets to a Luxembourg custodian bank for safekeeping and must appoint an approved statutory auditor.
One of the distinctive advantages of RAIF is that it may have various sub-funds, each corresponding to a distinct part of the assets and liabilities of the RAIF. As such, sub-funds can be established under a RAIF umbrella to target different investment opportunities in a variety of industries as desired.
On February 21, 2018, the Company signed an amendment to the Business Consultancy and Structuring Agency Agreement to be solely responsible for all the costs of Euros 3,500,000 associated with establishing the RAIF. On October 4, 2018, a Payment Agreement was signed by the structuring agent and the Company calling for an additional Euros 1,500,000 to be paid to the structuring agent by November 15, 2018. As of the date of this report, the Company has not fully met its contractual obligations with the Structuring Agency, but expects to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

On December 03, 2018, the Company successfully established PHI Luxembourg Development S.A. as the mother holding company in Luxembourg for PHILUX Global Funds and a number of sub-funds under the same umbrella.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the external disclosures of the Company including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed by us for reasonableness and conservatism on a consistent basis throughout the Company. Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include acquisitions, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, recoverability of deferred tax and the valuation of shares issued for services. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
The recoverability of long-lived assets requires considerable judgment and is evaluated on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. As it relates to definite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules as required by SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets to Be Disposed Of” as amended by SFAS No. 144, which also requires significant judgment and assumptions related to the expected future cash flows attributable to the intangible asset. The impact of modifying any of these assumptions can have a significant impact on the estimate of fair value and, thus, the recoverability of the asset.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. As of December 31, 2018, we estimated the allowance on net deferred tax assets to be one hundred percent of the net deferred tax assets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, our financial condition at March 31, 2019 and factors that we believe could affect our future financial condition and results of operations. We expect to consolidate the operating results of Vinafilms Joint Stock Company with those of the Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). All references to dollar amounts in this section are in United States dollars.
Three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019
Total Revenues:
The Company reported $950,000 of revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $500,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The reason for the increase in revenues between the two periods is due to the increase in receipt from bank fund fees during the current period.
35 |
Operating Costs and Expenses:
Total operating expenses were $144,391 and $175,052 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The decrease of $30,661 on total operating expenses between the two periods is mainly due to a decrease in professional services in the amount of $53,703 and an increase in general and administrative expenses in the amount of $23,541.
Income (Loss) from Operations:
Income from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 is $805,609, as compared to income from operations of $324,948 for the previous corresponding period ended March 31, 2018. A variance of $480,661 in the gain from operations between the two periods is mainly due to the net changes in revenues and total operating expenses between the two quarters.
Other Income and Expenses:
Net other expenses were $484,135 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to net other expenses of $1,001,977 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in other expenses of $517,842 between the two periods is mainly due to a decrease of $94,451 in prepayment premium in connection with convertible promissory notes, a decrease of $361,993 in dividends from Preferred Stock, and an increase of $41,350 in other expenses.
Net Interest expenses were $ 399,375 and $502,124 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Net Income (Loss):
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is $321,474, as compared to net loss of $677,029 for the same period in 2018, which is equivalent to ($0.00) per share for the current period and ($0.01) per share for the corresponding period ended March 31, 2018, based on the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding at the end of each corresponding period.
Nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2018
Total Revenues:
The Company had $1,150,000 in revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to $960,500 in revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $189,500 between the two periods. The reason for the increase in revenues between the two periods is primarily due to an increase in the receipt of fees from bank fund participation during the current nine-month period.
Operating Costs and Expenses:
Total operating expenses were $603,839 and $444,518 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The increase of $159,321 in total operating expenses between the two periods is mainly due to increases in professional fees of $93,057 and in general and administrative expenses of $66,264.
Income (Loss) from Operations:
Income from operations for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $546,161 as compared to income from operations of $480,661 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. A variance of $30,179 between the income from operations between the two periods is mainly due to the net changes in revenues and total operating expenses between the two nine-month periods as mentioned above.
36 |
Other Income and Expenses:
Net other expenses were $1,549,412 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to net other expenses of $2,189,661 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The net decrease in other expenses of $640,249 between the two nine-month periods is mainly due to a decrease of $145,077 in prepayment premium, a decrease of $140,000 in loss on loan conversion, a decrease of $713,337 in dividends from Preferred Stock, and a decrease of $52,920 in other expense, offset by an increase of $411,084 in net interest expenses between the two nine-month periods.
Interest expenses were $1,425,833 and $1,014,749 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Net Income (Loss):
Net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $1,003,251, as compared to net loss of $1,673,680 for the same period in 2018, which is equivalent to ($0.00) per share for the current period and ($0.02) per share for the corresponding period ended March 31, 2018, based on the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding at the end of each corresponding period.
CASH FLOWS
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance were $57,661 and $160,585 as of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.
Net cash used in the Company’s operating activities during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2019 is $2,212,766, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,029,509 during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2018. This represents a variance of $1,183,257 in net cash used in operating activities between the two periods. The underlying reason for the variance is primarily due to an increase of $3,215,114 from contract assets, and additional escrow deposits for the Luxembourg bank fund setup, coupled with a net increase of $1,361,428 in connection with contract liabilities, accrued expenses, notes payable, derivative liabilities and other payables during the current period.
Net cash used in investing activities during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $1,311,419, as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $$25,005,000 during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2018, respectively. The variance of $23,693,581 is due to investments in Vinafilms Joint Stock Company in the current period and investments in AQuarius Power Technology and Oregon gold claims during the previous period.
Cash provided by financing activities was $3,567,909 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2019, as compared to cash provided by financing activities in the amount of $25,156,725 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2018. The primary underlying reasons for a decrease of $22,588,816 in cash provided by financing activities between the two nine-month periods are primarily due to an increase in common stock and paid-in capital in the amount $912,530, a decrease in Preferred Stock in the amount of $18,688,461, a decrease in Demand Promissory Note of $4,939,500, a decrease in Other Comprehensive Loss of $448,316, change in Treasury Stock of $3,262 and adjustment in long-term liabilities in the amount of $223,647.
HISTORICAL FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
SHORT TERM NOTES PAYABLE AND ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK

These notes bear interest rates ranging from 0% to 36% per annum.
CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

Typically these notes bear interest rates from 5% to 12% per annum, mature within one year, are convertible to common stock of the Company at a discount ranging from 42% to 50%, and may be repaid within 180 days at a prepayment premium ranging from 130% to 150%.
37 |
COMPANY’S PLAN OF OPERATION FOR THE FOLLOWING 12 MONTHS
In the next twelve months the Company intends to focus on completing the establishment and deployment of the contemplated institutional bank fund in Luxembourg, together with a number of sub-funds, for investing in a certain selective industries such as green energy, sustainable agriculture and real estate, as well as developing and setting up the Asia Diamond Exchange in Vietnam in conjunction with other international partners and consultants. In addition, the Company continues to carry out its merger and acquisition program by acquiring all or controlling interests in certain target companies and also plans to invest in special situations that may potentially generate significant revenues and profitability for the Company in the short term. We expect to be able to consolidate the operating results of the acquired targets with those of PHI Group, Inc. Moreover, we will also continue providing advisory and consulting services to international clients through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc.
FINANCIAL PLANS
MATERIAL CASH REQUIREMENTS: We must raise substantial amounts of capital to fulfill our plan of acquiring energy-related and natural resource assets as well as investing in special situations as part of our scope of business. We intend to use equity, debt and project financing to meet our capital needs for acquisitions and investments.
Management has formulated plans to meet the Company’s operating needs through June 30, 2019 and beyond. The working capital cash requirements for the next 12 months are expected to be generated from operations, sale of marketable securities and additional financing. The Company plans to generate revenues from its consulting services, merger and acquisition advisory services, and acquisitions of target companies with cash flows.
AVAILABLE FUTURE FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS: The Company may use various sources of funds, including short-term loans, long-term debt, equity capital, and project financing as may be necessary. The Company believes it will be able to secure the required capital to implement its business plan.
EQUITY LINE FACILITY
On March 6, 2017, PHI Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and Azure Capital, a Massachusetts Corporation (the “Investor”) entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), each dated March 6, 2017 between the Company and the Investor.
Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investor committed to purchase, subject to certain restrictions and conditions, up to $10,000,000 worth of the Company’s common stock, over a period of 36 months from the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the resale of shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The Company agreed to initially reserve 20,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. In the event the Company cannot register a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Company will use its best efforts to authorize and reserve for issuance the number of shares required for the Company to perform its obligations in connection with the Investment Agreement as soon as reasonable practical.
The Company may in its discretion draw on the facility from time to time, as and when the Company determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum number of shares that the Company is entitled to put to the Investor in any one draw down notice shall not exceed shares with a purchase price of $250,000 or 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the Company’s Common Stock for the three (3) Trading Days prior to the applicable put notice date multiplied by the average of the three (3) daily closing prices immediately preceding the put date, calculated in accordance with the Investment Agreement. The Company may deliver a notice for a subsequent put from time to time, after the pricing period for the prior put has been completed.
38 |
The purchase price shall be set at ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately following the put notice date. On each put notice submitted to the Investor by the Company, the Company shall specify a suspension price for that put. In the event the price of Company’s Common Stock falls below the suspension price, the put shall be temporarily suspended. The put shall resume at such time the price of the Company’s Common Stock is above the suspension price, provided the dates for the pricing period for that particular put are still valid. In the event the pricing period has been complete, any shares above the suspension price due to the Investor shall be sold to the Investor by the Company at the suspension price under the terms of the Investment Agreement. The suspension price for a put may not be changed by the Company once submitted to the Investor.
There are put restrictions applied on days between the draw down notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, the Company shall not be entitled to deliver another draw down notice. In addition, the Investor will not be obligated to purchase shares if the Investor’s total number of shares beneficially held at that time would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, the Company is not permitted to draw on the facility unless there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the shares.
The Investment Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and the Investor are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for, among other things, any losses or liabilities they may suffer as a result of any breach by the other party of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). Investor should read the Investment Agreement together with the other information concerning the Company that the Company publicly files in reports and statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file one or more registrations statements with the SEC within twenty-one (21) days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement to register the resale by the Investor of the shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. In addition, the Company is obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days after the registration statement is filed.
This Investment Agreement was amended on August 3, 2017 to allow for the reservation of 65,445,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the corrected Investment Agreement.
The Company has filed a S-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to include 7,936,600 shares of its Common Stock for issuance in connection with the first tranche of the Equity Line Facility. The S-1 Registration Statement, as amended, was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 11, 2018. As of the day of this report, the Company has not accessed the Equity Line Facility for funding.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The following discussion about PHI Group Inc.’s market risk involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk
Some of our operations are conducted in other countries whose official currencies are not U.S. dollars. However, the effect of the fluctuations of exchange rates is considered minimal to our business operations.
Interest Rate Risk
We do not have significant interest rate risk, as most of our debt obligations are primarily short-term in nature to individuals, with fixed interest rates.
39 |
Valuation of Securities Risk
Since a part of our assets is in the form of marketable securities, the value of our assets may fluctuate significantly depending on the market value of the securities we hold.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), as of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation, our management (including our Chief Executive Officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019, based on the material weaknesses defined below.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management’s Report on Internal Control of Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
- | pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets, | |
- | provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and | |
- | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of authorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company’s management assessed the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 based on the framework set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:
(i) | inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; | |
(ii) | ineffective controls over period-end financial disclosure and reporting processes. |
If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company.
40 |
Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2019.
Management’s Remediation Plan
We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the future:
(i) | appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and |
(ii) | adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. |
The remediation efforts set out in (i) are largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our consolidated financial statements for the quarterly report ended March 31, 2019 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.
Attestation Report of the Registered Accounting Firm
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Rule 308(b) of Regulation S-K, which permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting have come to management’s attention during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Other than as set forth below, Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such action by or against Company has been threatened.
LEGAL PROCEEDING SETTLED AND UNPAID AS OF MARCH 31, 2019:
QUANG VAN CAO AND NHAN THI NGUYEN CAO VS. PROVIDENTIAL SECURITIES, INC. ET AL.

While the Company was in the process of re-negotiating the terms of said settlement, the Claimants filed a request for arbitration hearing before the National Association of Securities Dealers on October 4, 2000, Case No. 99-03160. Thereafter, the Claimants filed a complaint with the Orange County Superior Court, CA on October 31, 2000, Case No. 00CC13067 for alleged breach of contract for damages in the sum of $75,000 plus pre-judgment interest, costs incurred in connection with the complaint, and other relief.

As the date of this report, the Company has paid $2,500 and is subject to an entry of judgment for $79,000. In May 2011, the Claimants filed an application for and renewal of judgment for a total of $140,490.78. As of March 31, 2019 the Company accrued $172,091 for potential liabilities in connection with this case in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
41 |
WILLIAM DAVIDSON VS. DOAN ET AL.
On or about February 01, 2010, the Company was notified of a suit that was filed with the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles on November 24, 2009 by William Davidson, an individual against Martin Doan, Henry Fahman, Benjamin Tran, HRCiti Corporation, and Providential Capital, Inc. (collectively referred to as “Defendants” - Case No. BC 426831). Plaintiff demanded an amount of not less than $140,000.00 from Defendants for promissory notes outstanding between Plaintiff and the company.
On July 09, 2012 William Davidson and PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. (formerly Providential Capital, Inc.), a subsidiary of the Company, reached a settlement agreement with respect to whereby PHI Capital agreed to pay William Davidson a total of $200,000 over a period of nineteen months beginning September 1, 2012. Since November 30, 2012, William Davidson has converted portions of the total amount into common stock of PHI Group, Inc. in lieu of cash payment. The Company has accrued $90,000 as the required liability associated with the balance of these notes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019.
Investment in our securities is subject to various risks, including risks and uncertainties inherent in our business. The following sets forth factors related to our business, operations, financial position or future financial performance or cash flows which could cause an investment in our securities to decline and result in a loss.
General Risks Related to Our Business
Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.
Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.
Our strategy in mergers and acquisitions involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.
The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies, assets and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
42 |
Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:
● | failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results; |
● | diversion of management’s attention; |
● | failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business; |
● | additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both; |
● | the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and |
● | the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities. |
These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.
As some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia and Europe, any adverse change to the economy or business environment in these countries could significantly affect our operations, which would lead to lower revenues and reduced profitability.
Some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia and Europe. Because of this presence in specific geographic locations, we are susceptible to fluctuations in our business caused by adverse economic or other conditions in this region, including stock market fluctuation. A stagnant or depressed economy in these countries generally, or in any of the other markets that we serve, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Risks associated with energy business
As part of our business involves acquisitions of energy assets as well as production and trading of energy commodities, our profitability will depend on the prices we receive for energy commodities such as coal and wood pellets. These prices are dependent upon factors beyond our control, including: the strength of the global economy; the demand for electricity; the global supply of thermal coal and biomass products; weather patterns and natural disasters; competition within our industry and the availability and price of alternatives, including natural gas; the proximity, capacity and cost of transportation; coal industry capacity; domestic and foreign governmental regulations and taxes, including those establishing air emission standards for coal-fueled power plants or mandating increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources; regulatory, administrative and judicial decisions, including those affecting future mining permits; and technological developments, including those intended to convert coal-to-liquids or gas and those aimed at capturing and storing carbon dioxide.
Risks Related to Our Securities
Insiders have substantial control over the company, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control, even if our other stockholders wanted such a change to occur.
Though our executive officers and directors as of the date of this report, in the aggregate, hold less than 51% of our outstanding common stock, we have the majority voting rights associated with the Company’s Class B Series I Preferred Stock, which decision may allow the Board of Directors to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

The price at which investors purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the prevailing market price.
The stock market often experiences significant price fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stock is traded. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our shares. Investors may be unable to sell their shares of common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.
Since we do not currently meet the requirements for our stock to be quoted on NASDAQ, NYSE MKT LLC or any other senior exchange, the tradability in our securities will be limited under the penny stock regulations.
Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if the price of our securities on the OTCQB or OTC Markets is below $5.00 per share, our securities are within the definition of a “penny stock.” As a result, it is possible that our securities may be subject to the “penny stock” rules and regulations. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. These regulations require broker-dealers to:
*Make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser;
*Receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction; and
*Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.
These requirements may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability to resell our securities.
Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us.
It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded companies to obtain.
Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.
Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management and founder. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.
Our service strategy in merger and acquisition involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.
The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:
● | failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results; | |
● | diversion of management’s attention; | |
● | failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business; | |
● | additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both; | |
● | the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and | |
● | the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities. |
These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.
