CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Report”), including, without limitation, statements under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the words “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “potential,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continue,” or “should,” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. There can be no assurance that actual results will not materially differ from expectations. These statements are based on management’s current expectations, but actual results may differ materially due to various factors, including, but not limited to:

The forward-looking statements contained in this Report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. Future developments affecting us may not be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. In addition, even if our results or operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this Report to:

The Company, 24/7 Kid, and QDM BVI maintain their books and records in U.S. dollars and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States. QDM HK and YeeTah maintain their books and records either in U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars. This Report also contains translations of Hong Kong dollars into U.S. dollars for the convenience of the reader. The Hong Kong dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since 1983, the Hong Kong dollar has effectively been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of approximately HK$7.80 = US$1.00. However, the market exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S. dollar continues to be influenced by the forces of supply and demand in the foreign exchange market.

Unless otherwise stated, all translations of Hong Kong dollars into U.S. dollars were made at a pegged rate of HK$7.80 = US$1.00. We make no representation that the Hong Kong dollar or U.S. dollar amounts referred to in this Report could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

PART I

Overview 

QDM is a holding company incorporated in Florida with no material operations, and we conduct our insurance brokerage business through our indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary, YeeTah, primarily in Hong Kong.

YeeTah sells a wide range of insurance products, consisting of two major categories: (1) life and medical insurance, such as individual life insurance; and (2) general insurance, such as automobile insurance, commercial property insurance, liability insurance and homeowner insurance. In addition, as a Mandatory Provident Fund (“MPF”) intermediary, YeeTah also provides its customers with assistance on account opening and related services under the MPF and the Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance schemes (“ORSO”) in Hong Kong, both of which are mandatory retirement protection schemes set up for employees who are Hong Kong residents.

YeeTah sells insurance products underwritten by insurance companies operating in Hong Kong to individual customers who are either Hong Kong residents or visitors from Mainland China and are compensated for its services by commissions paid by insurance companies, typically based on a percentage of the premium paid by the insured. Commissions generally depend on the type, term of insurance products and the particular insurance company and they are usually paid by the insurance companies the next month after the cooling off period of the policies sold, which is generally 21 days after the earlier of the delivery of the policy or a cooling off notice to the policy holder.

As of the date of this Report, YeeTah was a party to agreements with 19 insurance companies in Hong Kong, and offers approximately 431 insurance products to our customers. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, an aggregate of 81.45% of YeeTah’s total commissions was attributable to its top two insurance companies, each accounted for more than 10% of its total commissions. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, an aggregate of 88.85% of YeeTah’s total commissions was attributable to its top two insurance companies, each accounted for more than 10% of our total commissions.

As of March 31, 2022, YeeTah had serviced an aggregate of 619 customers in connection with the purchase of an aggregate of 683 insurance products as well as a total of 40 customers for MPF related services.

As an independent insurance agency, YeeTah offers not only a broad range of insurance products underwritten by multiple insurance companies to address the needs of increasingly sophisticated customers with diverse needs and preferences but also quality services covering the policy application, customer information collection, analysis of policy selection, and after-sale services.

We focus on offering long-term life insurance products including endowment life and annuity life insurance and distribute general insurance products including automobile insurance, individual accident insurance, homeowner insurance, liability insurance and travel insurance. All of YeeTah’s sales of life and medical insurance products and general insurance products are conducted through its licensed sales persons (known in Hong Kong as technical representatives).

Hong Kong’s independent insurance intermediary market is experiencing rapid growth due to increasing demands for insurance products by the Chinese population, especially visitors from mainland China. We intend to grow our business by offering premium services and recruiting talent to join our professional team and sales force, expanding our distribution network through building more connections with business partners in Hong Kong and mainland China, such as wealth management companies, funds, trust companies, and overseas immigration agencies.

Holding Company Structure

QDM is not an operating company but a Florida holding company with operations primarily conducted through its indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary based in Hong Kong. Our investors hold shares of common stock in QDM, the Florida holding company.

We do not have or intend to set up any subsidiary or enter into any contractual arrangements to establish a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure with any entity in China. Our corporate organizational structure is as follows as of the date of this Report:

Our holding company structure presents unique risks as our investors may never directly hold equity interests in our Hong Kong operating subsidiary and will be dependent upon dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to finance our cash flow needs. Our ability to receive dividends and other contributions from our subsidiaries are significantly affected by regulations promulgated by Hong Kong and PRC authorities. Any change in the interpretation of existing rules and regulations or the promulgation of new rules and regulations may materially affect our operations and or the value of our securities, including causing the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless. For a detailed description of the risks facing the Company associated with our structure, please refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong.”

Currently, PRC laws and regulations do not prohibit direct foreign investment in our Hong Kong operating subsidiary. Nonetheless, in light of the recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government, such as those related to Hong Kong’s national security, the promulgation of regulations prohibiting foreign ownership of Chinese companies operating in certain industries, which are constantly evolving, and anti-monopoly concerns, we may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the PRC government in this regard, which would likely result in a material change in our operations, including our ability to continue our existing holding company structure, carry on our current business, accept foreign investments, and offer or continue to offer securities to our investors, and the resulting adverse change in value to our common stock. We may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, if we fail to comply with such rules and regulations, which would likely adversely affect the ability of the Company’s securities to continue to trade on the OTCQB, which would likely cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA Act”)

As more stringent criteria applying to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors have been imposed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) recently, and under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from being traded on the over-the-counter (the “OTC”) markets if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in trading in our securities being prohibited.

The HFCA Act was enacted on December 18, 2020. The HFCA Act states that if the SEC determines that an issuer’s audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm have not been subject to inspection by the PCAOB for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, the SEC shall prohibit such issuer’s securities from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States. On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCA Act. We will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies us as having a “non-inspection” year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. If we fail to meet the new rules before the deadline specified thereunder, we could face possible prohibition from trading on the OTCQB, deregistration from the SEC and/or other risks, which may materially and adversely affect, or effectively terminate, our securities trading in the United States. On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions.

Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges or the OTC markets if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three thus reducing the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or being delisted.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (i) China, and (ii) Hong Kong. Our auditor, ZH CPA, LLC, is an independent registered public accounting firm with the PCAOB and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of our auditor. Our auditor is not headquartered in China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong — Under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from being traded on any U.S. securities exchange, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, or through any other trading method within the SEC’s regulatory jurisdiction, including the OTC markets if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in trading in our securities being prohibited. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges or the OTC markets if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three.” on page 38.

Transfers of Cash to and from Our Subsidiaries

QDM is a holding company incorporated in Florida with no material operations of its own, and we conduct our insurance brokerage business through our indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary, YeeTah, primarily in Hong Kong. We may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity to be paid by our Hong Kong subsidiary to fund our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our stockholders, to service any debt we may incur and to pay our operating expenses. Currently, substantially all of our operations are in Hong Kong. We do not have or intend to set up any subsidiary or enter into any contractual arrangements to establish a VIE structure with any entity in China. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the PRC and the basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong are reflected in the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (the “Basic Law”), providing Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”. The laws and regulations of the PRC do not currently have any material impact on transfer of cash from us to YeeTah or from YeeTah to us and the investors in the U.S. In addition, there are no restrictions or limitations under the laws of Hong Kong imposed on the conversion of Hong Kong dollar into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of Hong Kong or across borders and to U.S investors.

We are permitted under the Florida law to provide funding to our subsidiaries, including YeeTah, through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds. There are no restrictions or limitations on our ability to distribute earnings from our businesses, including our subsidiaries, to the U.S. investors. YeeTah is permitted under the laws of Hong Kong to provide funding to QDM HK and QDM BVI, the holding company incorporated in Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands, respectively, through dividend or other distribution without restrictions on the amount of the funds. As of the date of this Report, there has been no dividends or distributions between our holding company and our subsidiaries nor do we expect such dividends or distributions to occur in the foreseeable future among our holding company and its subsidiaries.

YeeTah currently intends to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of its business and does not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. There are no significant restrictions and limitations on our ability to distribute earnings from our businesses, including our subsidiaries, to the parent company and U.S. investors or our ability to settle amounts owed. There are no restrictions on foreign exchange or our ability to transfer cash between entities within our group, across borders, or to U.S. investors. However, the PRC government has significant authority to intervene or influence the China operations of an offshore holding company at any time, and such oversight may also extend to our Hong Kong operating company. We cannot assure you that the PRC government will not prevent us from transferring the cash we maintain in Hong Kong outside of Hong Kong, or restrict our ability to deploy our cash into business or to pay dividends. We could also be subject to limitations on the transfer or the use of our cash if we expand our business operations into China or conduct our operations in some other ways such that we become subject to PRC laws that regulate these activities. In addition, if YeeTah incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. Any limitation on our ability to transfer or use our cash could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

We have never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The declaration of dividends on any class of shares is within the discretion of our board of directors, subject to the Florida law, out of legally available funds, and will depend on the assessment of, among other factors, earnings, capital requirements and our operating and financial condition. If we determine to pay dividends on any of our capital stock in the future, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our Hong Kong subsidiary, YeeTah. None of our subsidiaries has made any dividends or distributions to us. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by us. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business and Industry – We rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.” on page 34.

Regulatory Permissions and Developments

Our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that the laws and regulations of the PRC do not currently have any material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. However, there is no assurance that there will not be any changes in the economic, political and legal environment in Hong Kong in the future. If there is significant change to current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong, companies operated in Hong Kong such as us may face similar regulatory risks as those operated in PRC, including their ability to offer securities to investors, list their securities on a U.S. or other foreign exchange, conduct their business or accept foreign investment. In light of China’s recent expansion of authority in Hong Kong, there are risks and uncertainties which we cannot foresee for the time being, and rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little or no advance notice. The Chinese government may intervene or influence our current and future operations in Hong Kong at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in issuers likes ourselves. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong.”

We are aware that, recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. For example, on July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws. Also, on July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) issued a revised draft of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review for public comments, or the Revised Draft, which required that, among others, in addition to “operator of critical information infrastructure”, any “data processor” controlling personal information of no less than one million users (which to be further specified) which seeks to list in a foreign stock exchange should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further elaborated the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities.

Except for the Basic Law, national laws of the PRC do not apply in Hong Kong unless they are listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. National laws that may be listed in Annex III are currently limited under the Basic Law to those which fall within the scope of defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong. National laws and regulations relating to data protection, cybersecurity and anti-monopoly have not been listed in Annex III and do not apply directly to Hong Kong and, as such, we are advised by our counsel as to PRC law that that the CAC and CSRC do not currently have jurisdiction over companies operating in Hong Kong.

Our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that that we are not currently required to obtain any permission or approval from the CSRC, the CAC or any other regulatory authority in the PRC for our operations, the trading of our securities on the OTCQB and the offering of our securities to foreign investors. The business of our subsidiary is not subject to cybersecurity review with the CAC, given that PRC laws on data protection and cybersecurity do not currently apply to Hong Kong. To the extent that if we become subject to such PRC laws in the future, we do not believe we are required to conduct a cybersecurity review because (i) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations; and (ii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. In addition, we are not subject to merger control review by China’s anti-monopoly enforcement agency as such PRC enforcement agency does not currently have jurisdiction over our Hong Kong operating subsidiary. However, our operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to our business or industry, if we inadvertently conclude that such approvals are not required when they are, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain approval in the future. We may be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, if we fail to comply with such rules and regulations, which could adversely affect the ability of the Company’s securities to continue to trade on the OTCQB, which may cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

In addition, in light of the recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government, such as those related to Hong Kong’s national security, the promulgation of regulations prohibiting foreign ownership of Chinese companies operating in certain industries, which are constantly evolving, and anti-monopoly concerns, we may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the PRC government in this regard including the risk that the PRC government could disallow our holding company structure, which may result in a material change in our operations, including our ability to continue our existing holding company structure, carry on our current business, accept foreign investments, and offer or continue to offer securities to our investors. These adverse actions could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

There may be prominent risks associated with our operations being in Hong Kong. For example, as a U.S.-listed public company operating primarily in Hong Kong, we may face heightened scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, which could result in a material change in our operations and the value of our common stock. Additionally, we are subject to certain legal and operational risks associated with our business operations in Hong Kong, which is subject to political and economic influence from China. PRC laws and regulations governing our current business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain, and we may face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we conduct in Hong Kong and the profitability of such business. Therefore, these risks associated with being based in or having the majority of our operations in Hong Kong could likely cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Furthermore, these risks would likely result in a material change in our business operations or a complete hinderance of our ability to offer or continue to offer our securities to investors. Furthermore, changes in Chinese internal regulatory mandates, such as the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), the Anti-Monopoly Law, the Cybersecurity Law and the Data Security Law, may target the Company’s corporate structure and impact our ability to conduct business in Hong Kong, accept foreign investments, or list on an U.S. or other foreign exchange.

The U.S. government, including the SEC, has recently made statements and taken certain actions that may lead to significant changes to U.S. and international relations, and will impact companies with connections to the United States or China (including Hong Kong). The SEC has issued statements primarily focused on companies with significant China-based operations. For example, on July 30, 2021, Gary Gensler, Chairman of the SEC, issued a Statement on Investor Protection Related to Recent Developments in China, pursuant to which Chairman Gensler stated that he has asked the SEC staff to engage in targeted additional reviews of filings for companies with significant China-based operations.

For a detailed description of the risks facing the Company and the risks associated with having our operations in Hong Kong, please refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong.”

Recent PCAOB Developments

The PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections on accounting firms in the PRC or Hong Kong without the approval of the relevant government authorities. The auditor and its audit work in the PRC or Hong Kong may not be inspected fully by the PCAOB. Inspections of other auditors conducted by the PCAOB outside China have at times identified deficiencies in those auditors’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China or Hong Kong prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating the PRC auditor’s audits and its quality control procedures. As a result, investor may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection.

The documentation we may be required to submit to the SEC proving certain beneficial ownership requirements and establishing that we are not owned or controlled by a foreign government in the event that we use a foreign public accounting firm not subject to inspection by the PCAOB or where the PCAOB is unable to completely inspect or investigate our accounting practices or financial statements because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction could be onerous and time consuming to prepare. The HFCA Act mandates the SEC to identify issuers of SEC-registered securities whose audited financial reports are prepared by an accounting firm that the PCAOB is unable to inspect due to restrictions imposed by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction where the audits are performed. If such identified issuer’s auditor cannot be inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, the trading of such issuer’s securities on any U.S. national securities exchanges, as well as any over-the-counter trading in the U.S., will be prohibited.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCA Act. An identified issuer will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies it as having a “non-inspection” year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC.

On November 5, 2021, the SEC approved the PCAOB’s Rule 6100, Board Determinations Under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. Rule 6100 provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.

On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (i) China, and (ii) Hong Kong. Our auditor, ZH CPA, LLC, is an independent registered public accounting firm with the PCAOB and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of our auditor. Our auditor is not headquartered in China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination.

As a firm registered with the PCAOB, ZH CPA, LLC is subject to laws in the United States which provide that the PCAOB shall conduct regular inspections to assess the auditor’s compliance with the applicable professional standards. We have no intention of dismissing ZH CPA, LLC in the future or engaging any auditor not based in the U.S. and not subject to regular inspection by the PCAOB. There is no guarantee, however, that any future auditor engaged by the Company would remain subject to full PCAOB inspection during the entire term of our engagement. If it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate our auditor completely, investor may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Any audit reports not issued by auditors that are completely inspected by the PCAOB, or a lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China or Hong Kong that prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditors’ audits and their quality control procedures, could result in a lack of assurance that our financial statements and disclosures are adequate and accurate.

Future developments in respect of increased U.S. regulatory access to audit information are uncertain, as the legislative developments are subject to the legislative process and the regulatory developments are subject to the rule-making process and other administrative procedures.

See also “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong — Under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from being traded on any U.S. securities exchange, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, or through any other trading method within the SEC’s regulatory jurisdiction, including the OTC markets if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in trading in our securities being prohibited. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges or the OTC markets if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three.”

Corporate History

QDM was incorporated in Florida in March 2020 as the successor to 24/7 Kid, which was incorporated in Florida in November 1998. 24/7 Kid was a telemedicine company that provided Connect-a-Doc telemedicine kits to schools and its services aimed at providing an alternative to schools that desire to provide a higher level of healthcare to their students but are unable to keep a full-time school nurse available.

On March 3, 2020, a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) was entered into by and between Huihe Zheng, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman and Tim Shannon, our then controlling stockholder as well as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President and director. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Mr. Shannon sold to Mr. Zheng (i) 710,000 shares of common stock of 24/7 Kid, representing 42.6% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of 24/7 Kid as of March 9, 2020 and (ii) 13,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, each entitling the holder to 100 votes on all corporate matters submitted for stockholder approval, in consideration of $500,000 in cash from Mr. Zheng’s personal funds. The shares of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock acquired by Mr. Zheng, in the aggregate, represented 68.3% of the outstanding voting securities of 24/7 Kid as of March 9, 2020, and the acquisition of such shares resulted in a change in control of 24/7 Kid.

On March 11, 2020, we were incorporated in Florida as a wholly owned subsidiary of 24/7 Kid and QDM Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) was incorporated in Florida as our wholly owned subsidiary, for the purposes of effectuating a name change by implementing a reorganization of the corporate structure of 24/7 Kid through a merger (the “Merger”). On March 13, 2020, an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) was entered into by and among 24/7 Kid, the Company, and the Merger Sub. On April 8, 2020, the Articles of Merger were filed with the State of Florida to effect the Merger as stipulated by the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into 24/7 Kid, with 24/7 Kid being the surviving entity. As a result, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and 24/7 Kid became a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and as a result of the Merger, all issued and outstanding shares of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock of 24/7 Kid were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock and Series B Preferred Stock, respectively, on a one-for-one basis, with the Company securities having the same designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the corresponding share of the securities of 24/7 Kid being converted. As a result, upon consummation of the Merger, all of the stockholders of 24/7 Kid immediately prior to the Merger became stockholders of the Company and all the directors and officers of 24/7 Kid became the directors and officers of the Company. Upon consummation of the Merger, we became the successor issuer to 24/7 Kid pursuant to 12g-3(a) and as a result shares of our common stock were deemed to be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.

On October 21, 2020, we entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with QDM BVI, and Huihe Zheng, the sole shareholder of QDM BVI (the “QDM BVI Shareholder”), who is also our principal stockholder and serves as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI in exchange for the issuance to the QDM BVI Shareholder 900,000 shares of a newly designated Series C Preferred Stock, with each share of Series C Preferred Stock initially being convertible into 11 shares of our common stock, subject to certain adjustments and limitations (the transaction, the “Share Exchange”). The Share Exchange closed on October 21, 2020. As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange, we acquired QDM BVI, QDM HK and YeeTah, which is an insurance brokerage company primarily engaged in the sales and distribution of insurance products in Hong Kong. Since the consummation of the Share Exchange, we have assumed the business operations of the Group as our own.

As described above, on October 21, 2020, we acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement and QDM BVI became our wholly owned subsidiary. The acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein QDM BVI is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of QDM BVI have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.

Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that will be reflected in the financial statements prior to the Share Exchange will be those of the Group and will be recorded at the historical cost basis of the Group, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the Share Exchange will include the assets and liabilities of the Group, historical operations of the Group, and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries from the closing date of the Share Exchange.

As a result of the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI, we assumed the business operations of the Group as our own.

On November 3, 2021, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of QDMI Software Group Limited (“QDMS”), a company incorporated on February 6, 2020 in Cyprus. We acquired QDMS through an intermediary holding company, Lutter Global Limited (“LGL”), which was incorporated on July 29, 2021 in the BVI. Before the acquisition, Huihe Zheng was the sole shareholder of QDMS. As part of the acquisition, Mr. Zheng sold all the shares of QDMS to LGL for a consideration of EUR5,000 in November 2021 and at the same time the sole shareholder of LGL, Mengting Xu, transferred all her shares in LGL to us for a consideration of US$1.00. As a result, we acquired a 100% ownership of LGL, which, in turn, owns 100% of QDMS.

Our current principal offices are located at Room 715, 7F, The Place Tower C, No. 150 Zunyi Road, Changning District, Shanghai, China 200051. Our phone number is +86 (21) 22183083.

QDM is organized under the laws of the State of Florida as a holding company that conducts its business through a number of subsidiaries organized under the laws of foreign jurisdictions such as Hong Kong and the BVI. This may have an adverse impact on the ability of U.S. investors to enforce a judgment obtained in U.S. Courts against these entities, or to effect service of process on the officers and directors managing the foreign subsidiaries.

Competitive Advantages

We believe that the following competitive strengths contribute to our growth and differentiate us from our competitors:

Growth Strategy    

Our goal is to further expand our distribution network. To achieve this goal, we intend to capitalize on the growth potential of China and Hong Kong’s insurance industry and the insurance intermediary sector, leverage our competitive strengths and pursue the following strategy:

Recent Developments

Impact of COVID-19

An outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus, commonly referred to as COVID-19, was identified in China and has subsequently been recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity around the world. In response to the pandemic, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions, including Hong Kong, have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations and advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes.

With social distancing measures having been implemented to curtail the spread of COVID-19, brokers in Hong Kong, such as us, which relied primarily on storefront and in-person consultations for new business production faced an immediate slowdown. In addition, Hong Kong has suspended mainland tourists’ free travel and requested those who travel from mainland China and enter Hong Kong to undergo quarantine for 14 days.

Customers from mainland China contributed to a substantial part of our commissions. Regulations require their physical presence in Hong Kong to complete the policy contract. However, due to the political turmoil and travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 epidemic in China, mainland Chinese customers have dropped sharply. As a result, our revenue from commissions on new business has decreased significantly. Our commissions from renewal premiums have also been materially affected since the mainland Chinese customers have been late in making the renewal payments due to the inability to visit Hong Kong to make the payments. Most of our mainland customers do not have Hong Kong bank account and used to pay their premiums through credit card or in cash in person. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for more information on the impact of COVID-19 on our business operations and financial conditions. We do not expect a significant improvement over our business and results of operations until the COVID-19 is effectively contained in Hong Kong and China and the mainland visitors are permitted to enter Hong Kong without a quarantine. As such, we presently focus on servicing Hong Kong residents.

The extent to which the COVID-19 epidemic affects our business will depend on future developments in Hong Kong and around the world, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions required to contain and treat it, among others. The duration of such business disruption and the resulting operational and financial impact on us have negatively affected our financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 and may continue to adversely affect our business operations for the year ended March 31, 2023. The global spread of COVID-19 pandemic in a significant number of countries around the world has resulted in, and may intensify, global economic distress, and the extent to which it may affect our results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Industry— Our business, financial condition and results of operations have been and may continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 epidemic in China and Hong Kong.

Impact of Protests in Hong Kong

Since early 2019, a number of political protests and conflicts have occurred in Hong Kong in connection with proposed legislation that would allow local authorities to detain and extradite people who are wanted in territories that Hong Kong does not have extradition agreements with, including mainland China and Taiwan. On June 30, 2020, China’s National People’s Congress Standing Committee passed a national security law for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). Hong Kong’s Chief Executive promulgated it in Hong Kong later the same day. Among other things, it criminalizes separatism, subversion, terrorism and foreign interference in Hong Kong. The economy of Hong Kong has been negatively impacted, including the retail market, property market, stock market, and tourism, from such protests.

Under the Basic Law, Hong Kong is exclusively in charge of its internal affairs and external relations, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. We cannot assure you that the Hong Kong protests will not affect Hong Kong’s status as a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and thereby affecting its current relations with foreign states and regions.

Our revenue is susceptible to Hong Kong protests as well as any other incidents or factors which affect the stability of the social, economic and political conditions in Hong Kong. As a result of the Hong Kong protests, we experienced a drop in new customers from mainland China beginning in June 2019, which has impacted our revenue for the period from June 2019 to the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

It is unclear whether there will be other political or social unrest in the near future or that there will not be other events that could lead to the disruption of the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong. If such events persist for a prolonged period of time or that the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong are to be disrupted, our overall business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Self-underwritten Public Offering

On April 29, 2021, the Company consummated an initial closing of a “best efforts” self-underwritten public offering of the Company’s common stock (the “Offering”), in which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 16,708 shares (501,250 shares before the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below)) (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock at a price of $12 per share ($0.40 per share before the Reverse Stock Split) to certain investors, generating gross proceeds of $200,500. The material terms of the Offering are described in the prospectus, dated April 13, 2021, filed by the Company with the SEC on April 14, 2021, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act. The Offering is registered pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-252967), originally filed with the SEC on February 10, 2021 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), which was declared effective by the SEC on April 13, 2021. In connection with the sale of the Shares, on April 15, 2021, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with the investors in substantially the form filed as Exhibit 10.4 to the Registration Statement.

Conversion of Series C Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement entered into on October 21, 2020 by and among the Company, QDM BVI, and Huihe Zheng, the sole shareholder of QDM BVI who is also the Company’s principal stockholder and Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI in exchange for the issuance to Huihe Zheng 900,000 shares of a newly designated Series C Preferred Stock of the Company.

The Certificate of Designation of Series C Preferred Stock provides that each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after October 21, 2020, at the option of the holder and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion rate of 30-for-11 (1-for-11 before the Reverse Stock Split). On May 17, 2021, upon receipt of a conversion notice from Huihe Zheng, the Company issued 134,976 shares (4,049,254 shares before the Reverse Stock Split) (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, upon conversion of an aggregate of 368,114 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at a conversion ratio of 30-for-11 (1-for-11 before the Reverse Stock Split), pursuant to the terms of the Certification of Designation. Following the issuance of the Conversion Shares, the Company had an aggregate of 209,993 shares (6,238,553 shares before the Reverse Stock Split) of common stock issued and outstanding. The issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock was deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The recipient of the shares represented its intention to acquire such shares for investment only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof.

Reverse Stock Split

On July 2, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and Huihe Zheng, the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Company’s majority stockholder holding approximately 97.1% of its outstanding voting power as of July 2, 2021, approved an amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles of Incorporation”) to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, at a ratio of between one-for-twenty (1:20) and one-for-thirty five (1:35) (the “Reverse Stock Split”), with such ratio and the implementation and timing of such Reverse Stock Split to be determined by the Board in its sole discretion. On August 9, 2021, the Board set the final ratio and approved a one-for-thirty (1:30) Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

On August 10, 2021, the Company filed the Articles of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Florida, to effect the one-for-thirty (1:30) Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split became effective on August 10, 2021 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every thirty (30) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock (and such shares held in treasury) were automatically converted into one share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock from approximately 6.24 million shares to approximately 0.2 million shares. The number of authorized shares of common stock was not affected by the Reverse Stock Split. The Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis when the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority approved the Reverse Stock Split on August 31, 2021.

The Hong Kong Insurance Market  

Hong Kong has one of the most developed insurance markets in Asia, with the per capita insurance premium standing at high levels and has attracted many of the world’s top insurance companies. According to the Statistical Highlights issued by Research Office of the Legislative Council Secretariat on May 10, 2019, the Hong Kong insurance industry has shown a considerable growth in recent years. In 2018, the total gross premiums of the industry were about HK$531.7 billion (approximately $68.17 billion), representing an increase of 78% over 2013, primarily as a result of an increase of 86% in long term business (e.g., life and annuity), which we believe might be indicative of the increasing demand for long term insurance products due to aging population.

We believe that Hong Kong’s insurance industry’s accelerating growth is also attributable to increasing demands for insurance products by the Chinese population, especially visitors from mainland China. According to statistics from the Hong Kong Insurance Authority, the number of new policies brought by mainland visitors had been steadily increasing year by year until 2018, while witnessed a 25.6% decrease in 2019.

According to the statistics released by the Hong Kong Insurance Authority, the number of new policies purchased by mainland visitors in 2019 was 345,021, accounting for approximately 23.4% of the total number of new policies for individual insurance business, which typically includes, but not limited to, medical insurance, long-term life insurance, term life insurance, annuity, critical illness insurance and savings insurance. According to the Hong Kong Insurance Authority, the total amount of new premiums for individual insurance in 2019 was HK$172.3 billion (approximately $22.09 billion), which represents an increase of 6.5% compared to 2018 (HK$161.8 billion). Among them, the new policy premiums brought by mainland China visitors were HK$43.4 billion (approximately $5.6 billion), accounting for 25.2% of the total new policy premiums for individual insurance business. The diagram below demonstrates the number and percentage of new policies purchased by the mainland visitors over the years from 2010 to 2019.

Market Potential and Recent Trends 

Hong Kong’s insurance industry slowed down in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic in China and Hong Kong and social unrest in the city. GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company, previously forecasted that the industry would grow by 1.46% in 2020, from HKD 552 billion (approximately $70.8 billion) to HKD 560 billion (approximately $71.8 billion), representing one fourth of the sector’s rate of expansion comparing to last year. The slowing pace hit all insurance segments but in particular life insurance, which represents more than 90% of the Hong Kong insurance market. Non-life insurance sectors were expected to grow by 1% in 2020, in contract with pre-COVID-19 expectation of a growth of 4.4%. However, the firm forecasted a stronger future for the Hong Kong insurance industry beyond 2020, predicting 5.6%, 6.5% and 7.1% annual growth rates in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Hong Kong’ containment measures to control the spread of the COVID-19 has affected and will continue to affect its economy and insurance industry, which was already impacted by the recent civil unrest and US-China trade conflict.

Another issue faced by Hong Kong life insurers is related to their business from China. Customers from Chinese mainland constitute an important segment for Hong Kong life insurers. Regulations require their physical presence in Hong Kong to complete the policy contract. However, due to the recent riots in Hong Kong and now COVID-19 epidemic in China, interest from Chinese mainland customers has dropped sharply. As a result, sales to Chinese customers have fallen to negligible levels.

Products and Services

We market and sell two broad categories of insurance products: (1) life and medical insurance products, and (2) general insurance products. As of the date of this Report, insurance products we sell are underwritten by 19 insurance companies in Hong Kong. In addition, as an MPF Intermediary, we also assist our customers with their investment through the MPF and the ORSO schemes in Hong Kong. Such services primarily include collection and provision of information on investment products and exclude investment advisory services.

Life and Medical Insurance Products

Our life and medical insurance products collectively accounted for approximately 92.7% and 96.3% of our net revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For life and medical insurance products purchased by our customers, we generally receive commissions in the range of 2.72% to 168% of the first year premiums and in the range of 0% to 49.5% of renewal premiums.

The sale of life and medical insurance products is, and we currently expect it to continue to be, the major source of our revenue in the next several years. We began offering life insurance products in 2015 with a focus on individual life products with periodic payment schedules. The major life and medical insurance products we sell can be broadly classified into the categories set forth below. Due to constant product innovation by insurance companies, some of the insurance products we sell combine features of one or more of the categories listed below:

We believe due to China and Hong Kong’s rapidly aging population, high national savings rate, sustained economic development, rising household income, strong support from government policies and regulations, and enhanced risk protection awareness, Hong Kong’s life and medical insurance sector will experience faster growth than the other insurance sectors, and currently we plan to allocate greater resources to develop our life and medical insurance business.

General Insurance Products

Our general insurance products, also known as property and casualty insurance products, accounted for approximately 7.3% and 3.7% of our net revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For general insurance products purchased by our customers, we generally receive commissions from the insurance companies in the range of 5.0% - 55.0% of the premiums. The major general insurance products we offer or facilitate to individual customers can be further classified into the following categories:

MPF and ORSO Services

The MPF is a compulsory saving scheme (pension fund) for the retirement of residents in Hong Kong. Most employees and their employers are required to contribute monthly to the MPF schemes provided by approved private organizations based on the salary and period of employment of the employee. ORSO schemes are retirement schemes set up voluntarily by employers to provide retirement benefits for their employees. MPF is the mainstream retire plan in Hong Kong. We introduce customers to the service providers of the MPF and ORSO schemes approved by MPF as trustees to administer the MPF and ORSO schemes. As of March 31, 2022, there were a total 12 approved trustees in Hong Kong, of which, four have signed agreements with us in connection with its provision of MPF and ORSO related services. We assist employees who are Hong Kong residents to open personal accounts with a new approved trustee and employers in Hong Kong to set up corporate accounts. We receive service fees in the range of 1.0% - 5.0% of the total investment transferred by an employee/employer to the new trustee and are paid by the trustee once the transaction is completed. We assisted an aggregate of 40 customers with account opening and transfer of funds through the MPF scheme since inception.

Distribution Network and Marketing

We rely on our technical representatives to market and sell insurance products in Hong Kong. As of March 31, 2022, we had six technical representatives in Hong Kong. YeeTah was a party to an agreement with YeeTah Financial Group Co., Ltd. (“YeeTah Financial”), a company controlled by its former officer and director, which referred customers, most of whom were mainland visitors, to YeeTah for the purchase of insurance products in Hong Kong in exchange for certain fees paid by YeeTah out of its commissions earned through the insurance policies purchased by the referred customers. Such agreement with YeeTah Financial was terminated in December 2019 and we are in the process of identifying new cross-industry marketing partners in various lines of businesses to expand our business.

Customers

From March 2017 to March 31, 2022, the total number of our individual customers grew from 329 to 619. By providing premium customer services to our customers, we also strive to build a loyal customer base that generates referral and cross-selling opportunities, and that becomes returning customers, i.e., a customer who purchases more than one product from us. During each of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we had 13 customers from Hong Kong and no customers from other regions.

Collaboration with Insurance Companies

As of March 31, 2022, YeeTah had entered into long-term agreements with 19 insurance companies in Hong Kong, pursuant to which we are authorized to market and distribute certain insurance products of those companies to our customers. These agreements establish, among other things, the scope of our authority, the pricing of the insurance products YeeTah sells and its commission rates.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our top three insurance company partners by commissions are as follows:

Collaboration with Business Partners 

On February 5, 2021, the Company entered into a cooperation agreement (the “Agreement”) with Beijing HeWuHuiYing Equity Investment Co., Ltd., a limited liability company in China (“HeWuHuiYing”). Pursuant to the Agreement with HeWuHuiYing, HeWuHuiYing will promote the Company’s brand, products and services in mainland China, including business development, market research, referral and selection of business partners and clients, customer services and other related services. In consideration for such services, the Company agreed to issue to HeWuHuiYing an aggregate of 50,000 shares (1,500,000 shares before the Reverse Stock Split) of its common stock (the “Compensation Shares”) (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like, including to account for any equity securities into which such shares are exchanged or converted; provided, however, HeWuHuiYing shall only be entitled to (i) 50% of the Compensation Shares if the Company achieves a revenue of at least US$4 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022; and (ii) the remaining 50% of the Compensation Shares if the Company achieves a revenue of at least US$6 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. The determination of whether or not the performance targets are achieved shall be based on the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable period. The foregoing performance targets shall be met on an all-or-nothing basis, and there shall be no partial issuance. Upon satisfaction of the performance targets, the applicable portion of the Compensation Shares shall be issued to HeWuHuiYing in four equal installments on a quarterly basis beginning on the date of determination that the applicable target is met.

Competition

A number of industry players are involved in the distribution of insurance products in Hong Kong. We compete for customers on the basis of product offerings, customer services and reputation. Our principal competitors include:

Although some of our competitors have operated for a longer period of time than us, with more market shares and greater brand influence, we believe that our entrepreneurial attitude and smaller size, as well as our customer service, enable us to better respond and adapt to fast changing insurance market conditions compared to the larger competitors.

Seasonality

Our income is subject to both quarterly and annual fluctuations as a result of the seasonality of our business, the timing of policy renewals and the net effect of new and lost business. For life insurance, the insurance companies, under pressure to meet their annual sales targets, would increase their sales efforts during the fourth quarter of a year by, for example, offering more incentives for insurance intermediaries to increase sales. As a result, income derived from life insurance products for the fourth quarter of a year is generally the highest among all four quarters. Business activities, including buying and selling insurance, usually slow down during the Chinese New Year festivities, which occur during the first quarter of each year. As a result, income derived from our insurance products for the first quarter of a year has generally been the lowest among all four quarters.

Intellectual Property

As of March 31, 2022, we had no registered or registration-pending intellectual property. 

Employees and Technical Representatives

YeeTah had two full-time employees and we had two executive officers as of both March 31, 2022 and 2021. YeeTah also had six and ten licensed technical representatives as of March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Technical representatives are licensed individuals who provide regulated advice to a policy holder or potential policy holder on insurance matters for an insurance agent or broker, or arrange contracts of insurance in or from Hong Kong on behalf of that insurance agent or broker. YeeTah’s affiliated technical representatives are not our employees and are only compensated via commissions on sales of insurance policies. The commissions YeeTah pays its technical representatives vary from 100% to 170% of basic commission rate provided by each insurance company.

Government Regulation

As a business operating in Hong Kong, we are subject to various regulations and rules promulgated by the Hong Kong government. The following is a brief summary of the Hong Kong laws and regulations that currently materially affect our business. This section does not purport to be a comprehensive summary of all present and proposed regulations and legislation relating to the industry in which we operate our business.

Regulations Related to Insurance Intermediaries

Effective September 23, 2019, the Insurance Authority of Hong Kong (“IA”) took over the regulation of insurance agents and brokers (collectively, “Insurance Intermediaries”) from the three self-regulatory organizations (i.e., the Insurance Agents Registration Board established under The Hong Kong Federation of Insurers, The Hong Kong Confederation of Insurance Brokers and The Professional Insurance Brokers Association) and becomes the sole regulator to license and supervise all Insurance Intermediaries in Hong Kong. The IA is responsible for supervising Insurance Intermediaries’ compliance with the provisions of Insurance Ordinance (Cap. 41) (“IO”), and the relevant regulations, rules, codes and guidelines issued by the IA. The IA is also responsible for promoting and encouraging proper standards of conduct of Insurance Intermediaries, and has regulatory powers in relation to licensing, inspection, investigation and disciplinary sanctions.

The regulatory regime for Insurance Intermediaries is activity-based. Under section 64G of the IO, a person must not carry on a regulated activity, or must not hold out that the person is carrying on a regulated activity, in the course of business or employment, or for reward unless the person holds an appropriate type of Insurance Intermediary license or is exempt under the IO.

Regulated Activity

Under section 3A(a) of the IO and Schedule 1A to the IO, a person carries on a regulated activity if the person does any of the following:

Types of Licensed Insurance Brokers

The licensing regime under the IO prescribes two types of licensed insurance brokers: licensed insurance broker companies and licensed technical representatives (broker).

A license granted under section 64ZA or 64ZC of the IO is valid for 3 years or, if the IA considers it appropriate in a particular case, another period determined by the IA, beginning on the date on which it is granted.

Responsible Officer

Under section 64ZF of the IO, a licensed insurance broker company should appoint a fit and proper person to discharge his or her responsibilities as a responsible officer of the insurance broker company, and should provide sufficient resources and support to that person for discharging his or her responsibilities. Prior approval of the IA is required for appointment of the responsible officer.

Transitional Arrangements for Insurance Brokers

To facilitate a smooth transition, all insurance brokers who were validly registered with The Hong Kong Confederation of Insurance Brokers or Professional Insurance Brokers Association immediately before September 23, 2019 are deemed as licensed insurance brokers under the IO for a period of three years. The incumbent chief executives of the insurance broker companies are also eligible for the transitional arrangements. The IA will, staggered over the three-year transitional period, invite deemed licensees to submit applications to the IA for granting of formal licenses and approvals.

“Fit and Proper” Requirements

Under the IO, a person who is, is applying to be, or is applying for a renewal of a license to be, a licensed insurance broker is required to satisfy the IA that he/she/it is a fit and proper person. In addition, the responsible officer(s), controller(s), and director(s) (where applicable) of a licensed insurance broker company are also required to be fit and proper persons. These “fit and proper” requirements aim at ensuring that the licensed insurance brokers are competent, reliable and financially sound, and have integrity. Pursuant to the IO, in determining whether a person is a fit and proper person, the IA must consider, among others, the following factors:

The IA also issued the Guideline on “Fit and Proper” Criteria for Licensed Insurance Intermediaries under the Insurance Ordinance (Cap. 41) to further explain the criteria that the IA would adopt in determining whether a person is a fit and proper person. In addition, continuing professional development is part of the fit and proper requirement and the IA issued the Guideline on Continuing Professional Development for Licensed Insurance Intermediaries to provide guidance for complying with the continuing professional development requirements.

Financial and Other Requirements for Licensed Insurance Broker Companies

A licensed insurance broker company is required to comply with the Insurance (Financial and Other Requirements for Licensed Insurance Broker Companies) Rules (“Broker Rules”), which set out, inter alia, some of the key requirements in relation to:

A licensed insurance broker company must at all times maintain a paid-up share capital of not less than $500,000 and net assets of not less than $500,000, subject to the transitional arrangements mentioned above, pursuant which, the insurance broker company is required to maintain the amount of paid-up share capital and net assets of (i) not less than $100,000 for the period from September 23, 2019 to December 31, 2021 and (ii) not less than $300,000 for the period from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2023.

A licensed insurance broker company must maintain a professional indemnity insurance policy that provides coverage for claims made against the company for liabilities arising from breaches of duty in the course of carrying on its regulated activities.

A licensed insurance broker company that receives or holds client monies must maintain at least one client account with an authorized institution in the name of the licensed insurance broker company in the title of which the word “client” appears.

A licensed insurance broker company must keep, in relation to its business which constitutes the carrying on of regulated activities, where applicable, sufficient accounting and other records (including records relating to the assets or affairs of the company’s clients).

Licensed insurance broker companies are required to file their audited financial statements and auditor’s compliance reports to the IA annually, which statements and reports are reviewed by the IA annually. Any issue noted or qualified opinion expressed by the auditor will be followed up and where applicable, further actions will be taken as the IA considers necessary.

The Broker Rules also provide certain exemptions for the broker insurance companies subject to the transitional requirements referenced above during the specified transitional period in complying with the requirements in relation to professional indemnity insurance, client monies reconciliation and audited financial statements.

Conduct Requirements

Licensed insurance brokers are required to comply with the statutory conduct requirements set out in sections 90 and 92 of the IO. The IA also issued the Code of Conduct for Licensed Insurance Brokers (“Code of Conduct”) to set out the general principles, together with the standards and practices relating to each general principle, serving as the minimum standards of professionalism to be met by licensed insurance brokers when carrying on regulated activities.

The general principles that a licensed insurance broker should comply with include:

A licensed insurance broker company is required to have proper controls and procedures in place to ensure that the broker company and its licensed technical representatives (broker) meet the general principles, standards and practices set out in the Code of Conduct.

The Code of Conduct does not have the force of law, in that it is not subsidiary legislation, and should not be interpreted in a way that would override the provision of any law. A failure by a licensed insurance broker to comply with the Code of Conduct shall not by itself render the broker liable to any judicial or other proceedings. However, in any proceedings under the IO before a court, the Code of Conduct is admissible in evidence, and if a provision in the Code of Conduct appears to the court to be relevant to a question arising in the proceedings, the court must, in determining the question, take into account any compliance or non-compliance with the Code of Conduct.

Regulation of Mandatory Provident Fund Intermediaries

With the implementation of the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes (Amendment) Ordinance 2012, a new statutory regulatory regime for MPF intermediaries came into operation as of November 1, 2012. Under this statutory regime, only registered MPF intermediaries (such as our operating subsidiary) are allowed to engage in conducting sales and marketing activities and giving advice in relation to MPF schemes.

Under the statutory regime, the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (“MPFA”) is the authority to administer MPF intermediaries, issue guidelines on compliance with statutory requirements applicable to registered MPF intermediaries, and impose disciplinary sanctions. On the other hand, the IA is given the statutory role for monitoring the compliance of the registered MPF intermediaries. As a frontline regulator, the IA supervises the conduct requirements stipulated in the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance (Cap.485) (“MPFSO”). If the IA has reasonable cause to believe that the registered MPF intermediaries may have failed to comply with the statutory conduct requirements, it may exercise the investigation powers under the MPFSO for investigating the suspected non-compliance.

Registered MPF intermediaries must comply with a set of statutory conduct requirements when they engage in conducting sales and marketing activities and giving advice in relation to MPF schemes. The MPFA has issued the Guidelines on Conduct Requirements for Registered Intermediaries to assist the registered MPF intermediaries in understanding how to comply with the conduct requirements.

The minimum standards of conduct that a registered MPF intermediary should adopt include:

Regulation Related to Business Registration

The Business Registration Ordinance (Chapter 310 of the Laws of Hong Kong) requires every person carrying on any business in Hong Kong to make an application to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue in the prescribed manner for the registration of that business, unless it is exempt under the Business Registration Ordinance. The Commissioner of Inland Revenue must register each business for which a business registration application is made and as soon as practicable after the prescribed business registration fee and levy are paid and issue a business registration certificate or branch registration certificate for the relevant business or the relevant branch, as the case may be.

Regulation Related to Employment and Labor Protection

Employment Ordinance (Chapter 57 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The Employment Ordinance (Chapter 57 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the EO, is an ordinance enacted for, amongst other things, the protection of the wages of employees and the regulation of the general conditions of employment and employment agencies. Under the EO, an employee is generally entitled to, amongst other things, notice of termination of his or her employment contract; payment in lieu of notice; maternity protection in the case of a pregnant employee; not less than one rest day in every period of seven days; severance payments or long service payments; sickness allowance; statutory holidays or alternative holidays; and paid annual leave of up to 14 days depending on the period of employment.

Employees’ Compensation Ordinance (Chapter 282 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The Employees’ Compensation Ordinance (Chapter 282 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the ECO, is an ordinance enacted for the purpose of providing for the payment of compensation to employees injured in the course of employment. As stipulated by the ECO, no employer shall employ any employee in any employment unless there is in force in relation to such employee a policy of insurance issued by an insurer for an amount not less than the applicable amount specified in the Fourth Schedule of the ECO in respect of the liability of the employer. According to the Fourth Schedule of the ECO, the insured amount shall be not less than HK$100,000,000 (approximately $12,900,000) per event if a company has no more than 200 employees. Any employer who contravenes this requirement commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine of HK$100,000 (approximately $12,900) and imprisonment for two years. An employer who has taken out an insurance policy under the ECO is required to display a prescribed notice of insurance in a conspicuous place on each of its premises where any employee is employed. Any employer who, without reasonable cause, contravenes this requirement commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine of HK$10,000 (approximately $1,290). We believe that we have taken sufficient employee compensation insurance for our employees required under the ECO.

Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance (Chapter 485 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The MPFSO is an ordinance enacted for the purposes of providing for the establishment of non-governmental mandatory provident fund schemes, or the MPF Schemes. The MPFSO requires every employer of an employee (other than exempt persons) of 18 years of age or above but under 65 years of age to take all practical steps to ensure the employee becomes a member of a registered MPF Scheme. Subject to the minimum and maximum relevant income levels, it is mandatory for both employers and their employees to contribute 5% of the employee’s relevant income to the MPF Scheme. For a monthly-paid employee, the maximum relevant income level is HK$30,000 (approximately $3,870) per month and the maximum amount of contribution payable by the employer to the MPF Scheme is HK$1,500 (approximately $193). Any employer who, without reasonable cause, contravenes this requirement commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine of HK$350,000 (approximately $45,200) and imprisonment for three years, and to a daily penalty of HK$500 (approximately $65) for each day on which the offence is continued. As of the date of this Report, the Company believe it has made all contributions required of PAM under the MPFSO. We believe that we have made all contributions required under the MPFSO.

Regulations Related to Hong Kong Taxation

Inland Revenue Ordinance (Chapter 112 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

Under the Inland Revenue Ordinance (Chapter 112 of the Laws of Hong Kong), where an employer commences to employ in Hong Kong an individual who is or is likely to be chargeable to tax, or any married person, the employer shall give a written notice to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue not later than three months after the date of commencement of such employment. Where an employer ceases or is about to cease to employ in Hong Kong an individual who is or is likely to be chargeable to tax, or any married person, the employer shall give a written notice to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue not later than one month before such individual ceases to be employed in Hong Kong.

Tax on Dividends

Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by the Company.

Capital Gains and Profit Tax

No tax is imposed in Hong Kong in respect of capital gains from the sale of shares. However, trading gains from the sale of shares by persons carrying on a trade, profession or business in Hong Kong, where such gains are derived from or arise in Hong Kong, will be subject to Hong Kong profits tax which is imposed at the rates of 8.25% on assessable profits up to HK$2,000,000 (approximately US$258,000) and 16.5% on any part of assessable profits over HK$2,000,000 (approximately US$258,000) on corporations from the year of assessment of 2018/2019 onwards. Certain categories of taxpayers (for example, financial institutions, insurance companies and securities dealers) are likely to be regarded as deriving trading gains rather than capital gains unless these taxpayers can prove that the investment securities are held for long-term investment purposes.

Stamp Duty

Hong Kong stamp duty, currently charged at the ad valorem rate of 0.1% on the higher of the consideration for or the market value of the shares, will be payable by the purchaser on every purchase and by the seller on every sale of Hong Kong shares (in other words, a total of 0.2% is currently payable on a typical sale and purchase transaction of Hong Kong shares). In addition, a fixed duty of HK$5 is currently payable on any instrument of transfer of Hong Kong shares. Where one of the parties is a resident outside Hong Kong and does not pay the ad valorem duty due by it, the duty not paid will be assessed on the instrument of transfer (if any) and will be payable by the transferee. If no stamp duty is paid on or before the due date, a penalty of up to ten times the duty payable may be imposed.

Regulations Related to Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing

Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Ordinance (Chapter 615 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The AMLO imposes requirements relating to client due diligence and record-keeping and provides regulatory authorities with the powers to supervise compliance with the requirements under the AMLO. In addition, the regulatory authorities are empowered to (i) ensure that proper safeguards exist to prevent contravention of specified provisions in the AMLO; and (ii) mitigate money laundering and terrorist financing risks.

Drug Trafficking (Recovery of Proceeds) Ordinance (Chapter 405 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The Drug Trafficking (Recovery of Proceeds) Ordinance (Chapter 405 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the DTROP, contains provisions for the investigation of assets suspected to be derived from drug trafficking activities, the freezing of assets on arrest and the confiscation of the proceeds from drug trafficking activities. It is an offence under the DTROP if a person deals with any property knowing, or having reasonable grounds to believe, it to be the proceeds from drug trafficking. The DTROP requires a person to report to an authorized officer if he/she knows or suspects that any property (directly or indirectly) is the proceeds from drug trafficking or is intended to be used or was used in connection with drug trafficking, and failure to make such disclosure constitutes an offence under the DTROP.

Organized and Serious Crimes Ordinance (Chapter 455 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The Organized and Serious Crimes Ordinance (Chapter 455 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the OSCO, empowers officers of the Hong Kong Police Force and the Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department to investigate organized crime and triad activities, and it gives the Hong Kong courts jurisdiction to confiscate the proceeds from organized and serious crimes, to issue restraint orders and charging orders in relation to the property of defendants of specified offences. The OSCO extends the money laundering offence to cover the proceeds of all indictable offences in addition to drug trafficking.

United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance (Chapter 575 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

The United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance (Chapter 575 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the UNATMO, provides that it is a criminal offence to: (i) provide or collect funds (by any means, directly or indirectly) with the intention or knowledge that the funds will be used to commit, in whole or in part, one or more terrorist acts; or (ii) make any funds or financial (or related) services available, directly or indirectly, to or for the benefit of a person knowing that, or being reckless as to whether, such person is a terrorist or terrorist associate. The UNATMO also requires a person to report his knowledge or suspicion of terrorist property to an authorized officer, and failure to make such disclosure constitutes an offence under the UNATMO.

GL3: Guideline on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing

The Guideline on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing is issued by the IA, and it sets out the relevant anti-money laundering and counter-financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) statutory and regulatory requirements. It also prescribes the AML/CFT standards which authorized insurers and reinsurers carrying on long term business, and licensed individual insurance agents, licensed insurance agencies and licensed insurance broker companies carrying on regulated activities in respect of long term business (hereinafter referred to as “insurance institutions” (“IIs”)), should meet in order to comply with the statutory requirements under the AMLO and the IO. Compliance with this Guideline is enforced through the AMLO and the IO. IIs which fail to comply with this Guideline may be subject to disciplinary or other actions under the AMLO and/or the IO for non-compliance with the relevant requirements.

PRC Regulations

Enforceability of Civil Liabilities

Half of our officers and directors are residents of China and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for a stockholder to effect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. It may also be difficult for a stockholder to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our executive officers and directors.

Our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that there is uncertainty as to whether PRC courts would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, or (ii) entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

Our counsel as to PRC law has further advised us that the PRC Civil Procedures Law governs the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions.

The PRC does not have any treaties or other agreements with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they determine that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States. Under the PRC Civil Procedures Law, foreign stockholders may originate actions based on PRC law against us in the PRC, if they can establish sufficient nexus to the PRC for a PRC court to have jurisdiction, and meet other procedural requirements, including, among others, the plaintiff must have a direct interest in the case, and there must be a concrete claim, a factual basis and a cause for the suit.

Our business is subject to many significant risks, as more fully described in this section entitled “Risk Factors”. If any of the risks discussed in this Report actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially and adversely affected. In particular, our risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong

Risks Related to Our Securities

An investment in our securities is highly speculative and involves substantial risks, including the risks described below. You should carefully consider all of the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this Report, before making a decision to invest in our securities. The risks highlighted here are not the only ones that we may face. For example, additional risks presently unknown to us or that we currently consider immaterial or unlikely to occur could also impair our operations. If any of the risks or uncertainties described below or any such additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected, and you might lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

Our business is subject to concentration risks arising from dependence on a single or limited number of insurance company partners.

We derive a significant portion of revenues from selling insurance products supplied by our major insurance company partners. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, an aggregate of 81.45% of our total commissions were attributed to our top two insurance companies, each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, an aggregate of 88.85% of our total commissions were attributable to our top two insurance company partners, each accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue.

Because of this concentration in the supply of the insurance products we sell, our business and operations would be negatively affected if we experience a partial or complete loss of any of these insurance partners. In addition, any significant adverse change in our relationship with any of these insurance company partners could result in loss of revenue, increased costs and distribution delays that could harm our business and customer relationships.

We incurred net losses in the past and may never achieve profitability in the future.

We had a net loss of $378,165 and $326,199 in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There can be no assurance that we will be able to become profitable in the future. We anticipate that our operating costs and expenses will increase in the foreseeable future as we continue to grow our business, acquire new clients and further develop our service offering and increase brand recognition. These efforts may prove more costly than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenues sufficiently to offset these higher expenses. There are other factors that could negatively affect our financial condition. For example, if we fail to compete successfully with our existing or potential competitors, or if the insurance products we sell are not accepted by the market as we expect, we will receive lower-than-expected insurance brokerage income, and our financial results will be adversely affected. If regulatory authorities promulgate new laws, regulations and regulatory requirements that limit our business operations, especially with regard to our fee or cost model, our results of operations will suffer. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, our net profit margins may decline or we may continue to incur net losses in the future and may not be able to achieve profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

Our business, financial condition and results of operations have been and may continue to be materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 epidemic in China and Hong Kong.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spread rapidly to other countries, including the United States, and the World Health Organization formally declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic in March 2020. The pandemic has reached more than 160 countries, resulting in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines, and travel bans, intended to control the spread of the virus. The Hong Kong government has ordered quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of schools, stores, borders and facilities. Companies are also taking precautions, such as requiring employees to work remotely, imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing businesses.

Our business operations rely heavily on the customers from mainland China and the closure by Hong Kong government of the borders with mainland China, the restriction on travel have significantly reduced the number of our new customers. In addition, limited ability of our sales personnel to interact with customers face-to-face as result of the social distance measures has hindered the sales activities of our sales force, which has had a material adverse impact on our operating results of the period from January 2020 to the date of this Report and the operating income for the same period significantly decreased on a year-over-year basis.

The duration of such business disruption and the resulting operational and financial impact on us have negatively affected our financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 and may continue to adversely affect our business operations for the year ending March 31, 2023. The global spread of COVID-19 pandemic in a significant number of countries around the world has resulted in, and may intensify, global economic distress, and the extent to which it may affect our results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. We cannot assure you that the COVID-19 pandemic can be eliminated or contained in the near future, or at all, or a similar outbreak will not occur again. If the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting disruption to our business were to extend over a prolonged period, it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, our independent auditor included an explanatory paragraph in their audit report emphasizing to the readers of the audit report that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses and negative cash flows from operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 and its levels of working capital as of March 31, 2022. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 have also been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We have incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2022. Management is planning to raise any necessary additional funds to fund our operating expenses through loans and additional sales of our common stock, securities convertible into our common stock, debt securities or a combination of such financing alternatives; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising any necessary additional capital. If we are not successful in raising additional capital, we may not have enough financial resources to support our business and operations and, as a result, may not be able to continue as a going concern and could be forced to liquidate.

If we fail to attract and retain productive technical representatives to sell the insurance products, our business and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

All of our sales of life and medical insurance products and general insurance products are conducted through our licensed technical representatives. We have been actively recruiting and will continue to recruit technical representatives to join our distribution and service network. Technical representatives have been instrumental to the development of our life insurance business.

As of March 31, 2022, we had six technical representatives. Competition for technical representatives is intense and there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain such personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain highly productive technical representatives, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

Misconduct of the technical representatives may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Misconduct of the technical representatives could result in regulatory sanctions, litigation or serious reputational or financial harm to us.

Misconduct may include:

Failure to prevent and detect misconduct may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We are subject to extensive regulations for our insurance brokerage business and operations.

We conduct our business primarily in Hong Kong and our business operations are subject to vigorous regulations in Hong Kong applicable to licensed insurance brokers. Any failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations could result in fines, censure, suspensions of personnel or other sanctions, including revocation of our license as insurance broker. Even if a sanction imposed against us or our personnel is small in monetary amount, the adverse publicity arising from the imposition of sanctions against us by regulators could harm our reputation and impede our ability to retain customers and develop new customer relationships, which may reduce our revenues.

From time to time, the regulatory landscape in the insurance industry in Hong Kong involves and changes. We face the risk of significant intervention by regulatory authorities, including increased registered capital requirements, extended training of the insurance agencies’ personnel, and adoption of costly or restrictive new regulations and judicial or administrative proceedings. If any restrictive or costly new regulations and rules become effective and applicable to our business, these regulations may materially limit our activities and operational profitability.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure, and our management’s inexperience with such regulations, will result in additional expenses and creates a risk of non-compliance.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the public markets and public reporting. Our management team will need to invest significant management time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities. In addition, our management members who are located in the PRC has little experience with compliance with U.S. laws (including securities laws). This inexperience may cause us to fall out of compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, which could lead to enforcement action against us and a negative impact on our stock price.

Failure to obtain, renew, or retain licenses, permits or approvals may affect our ability to conduct or expand our business.

We are required to obtain applicable licenses, permits and approvals from different Hong Kong regulatory authorities in order to conduct or expand our business. The IA has promulgated various regulations on the insurance business, including regulations requiring an insurance broker license. We obtained, renewed and maintained our insurance broker license as required by the IA. However, there is no assurance that the IA will not issue new regulations governing the insurance product and service industry that might require us to obtain additional licenses, permits or approvals for our current or future business operations. Our failure to obtain any such additional licenses, permits or approvals may adversely our business operations and financial condition.

Competition in our industry is intense and, if we are unable to compete effectively with both existing and new market participants, we may lose customers and our financial results may be negatively affected.

The insurance intermediary industry in Hong Kong is intensely competitive, and we expect competition to persist and further intensify as more insurance broker companies enter the market. In insurance product distribution, we face competition from insurance companies that use their in-house sales force and exclusive sales agents to distribute their products, from business entities that distribute insurance products on an ancillary basis, such as commercial banks, as well as from other traditional insurance intermediaries. Many of our competitors, both existing and newly emerging, have greater financial and marketing resources than we do and may be able to offer products and services that we do not currently offer and may not offer in the future. If we are unable to compete effectively against those competitors, we may lose customers and our financial results may be negatively affected.

Because the commission we earn on the sale of insurance products is based on premiums and commission rates set by insurance companies, any decrease in these premiums or commission rates may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are an insurance broker and derive revenues primarily from commissions paid by the insurance companies whose policies our customers purchase. Our commission rates are set by insurance companies and are based on the types and terms of the insurance products. Commission rates and premiums can change based on the prevailing economic, regulatory, taxation-related and competitive factors that affect insurance companies. These factors, which are not within our control, include the ability of insurance companies to place new business, underwriting and non-underwriting profits of insurance companies, consumer demand for insurance products, the availability of comparable products from other insurance companies at a lower cost, as well as the tax deductibility of commissions and the consumers themselves.

Because we do not determine, and cannot predict, the timing or extent of premium or commission rate changes, we cannot predict the effect any of these changes may have on our operations. Any decrease in premiums or commission rates may significantly affect our profitability.

Quarterly and annual variations in our commission revenue may unexpectedly impact our results of operations.

Our commission revenue is subject to both quarterly and annual fluctuations as a result of the seasonality of our business, the timing of policy renewals and the net effect of new and lost business. During any given year, our commission revenue derived from distribution of life and medical insurance products is highest during the fourth quarter and is lowest during the first quarter. This general seasonality trend was further affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced our first year life insurance commission revenue during 2021 and 2022. The factors that cause the quarterly and annual variations are not within our control. Specifically, regulatory changes to product design may result in cessation of products from time to time and cause quarterly fluctuation in the results of our operations. In addition, consumer demand for insurance products can influence the timing of renewals, new business and lost business, which generally includes policies that are not renewed, and cancellations. As a result, quarterly or annual comparisons of our operating results may not be used as an indication of our future performance.

Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of our senior management team and other key personnel, and our business may be harmed if we lose their services.

Our future success depends heavily upon the continuing services of the members of our senior management team and other key personnel, in particular, Mr. Huihe Zheng, our President and Chief Executive Officer. If our senior executives or other key personnel, are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them easily, or at all. As such, our business may be disrupted and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Competition for senior management and key personnel in insurance industry is intense because of a number of factors including the limited pool of qualified candidates. We may not be able to retain the services of our senior executives or key personnel, or attract and retain high-quality senior executives or key personnel in the future. In addition, if any member of our senior management team or any of our other key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose customers, sensitive trade information, key professionals and staff members.

We may not be able to ensure the accuracy and completeness of product information and the effectiveness of our recommendation of insurance products.

Our customers rely on the insurance product information we provide through our technical representatives. While we believe that such information is generally accurate, complete and reliable, there can be no assurance that the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information can be maintained in the future. If our technical representatives provide any inaccurate or incomplete information due to either their own fault or that of our insurance partners, or we fail to present accurate or complete information of any insurance products which could lead to our customers’ failure to get the protection or we being warned or punished by regulatory authorities, our reputation could be harmed and we could experience reduced businesses, which may adversely affect our business and financial performance.

We may not be able to recommend suitable insurance products to our customers. Our technical representatives may not fully understand the customers’ needs and recommend suitable products to them. In addition, because the technical representatives are compensated based on premiums and commission rates, they may be tempted to sell insurance products with higher commissions rather than those required by or suitable to the customers or prospective customers. If our customers are recommended insurance products that do not suit their protection needs, they may lose trust in the company. Meanwhile, our insurance company partners may find our recommendation ineffective. Our customers may consequently be reluctant to continue to use our services, and our insurance company partners may be hesitant to continue to partner with us. As a result, our business, reputation, financial performance and prospects will be materially and adversely affected.

We may face potential liability, loss of customers and damage to our reputation for any failure to protect the confidential information of our customers.

Our customer database holds confidential information concerning our customers. We may be unable to prevent third parties, such as hackers or criminal organizations, from stealing information provided by our customers. Confidential information of our customers may also be misappropriated or inadvertently disclosed through insurance agents’ misconduct or mistake. We may also in the future be required to disclose to government authorities certain confidential information concerning our customers. Any compromise of our security could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Though we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents in the past, if our database was compromised by outside sources or if we were accused of failing to protect the confidential information of our customers, we may be forced to expend significant financial and managerial resources in remedying the situation, defending against these accusations and we may face potential liability. Any negative publicity, especially concerning breaches in our cybersecurity systems, may adversely affect our public image and reputation. Though we take proactive measures to protect against these risks and believe that our efforts in this area are sufficient for our business, there can be no assurance that such measures will prove effective against all cybersecurity risks.

We rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

QDM is a holding company incorporated in Florida, and it relies on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its subsidiaries for its cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to its stockholders and service any debt it may incur. If any of QDM’s subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to QDM.

Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by us. See “Item 1. Business – Regulation — Regulations Related to Hong Kong Taxation.” Any limitation on the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiary to pay dividends or make other distributions to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong

Potential political and economic instability in Hong Kong may adversely impact our results of operations. We may also face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we conduct in Hong Kong and the profitability of such business.

Our operational activities are primarily conducted in Hong Kong. Accordingly, political and economic conditions in Hong Kong and the surrounding region may directly affect our business. Since early 2019, a number of political protests and conflicts have occurred in Hong Kong in connection with proposed legislation that would allow local authorities to detain and extradite people who are wanted in territories that Hong Kong does not have extradition agreements with, including mainland China and Taiwan. The economy of Hong Kong has been negatively impacted, including our retail market, property market, stock market, and tourism, from such protests.

Under the Basic Law, Hong Kong is exclusively in charge of its internal affairs and external relations, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. We cannot assure you that the Hong Kong protests will not affect Hong Kong’s status as a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and thereby affecting its current relations with foreign states and regions.

Our revenue is susceptible to Hong Kong protests as well as any other incidents or factors which affect the stability of the social, economic and political conditions in Hong Kong. As a result of the Hong Kong protests, we experienced a drop in new customers from mainland China beginning in June 2019, which impacted our revenue for the period from June 2019 to the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  

It is unclear whether there will be other political or social unrest in the near future or that there will not be other events that could lead to the disruption of the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong. If such events persist for a prolonged period of time or that the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong are to be disrupted, our overall business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

In addition, economic, political and legal developments and social conditions in the PRC may significantly affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The PRC economy is in transition from a planned economy to a market-oriented economy subject to plans adopted by the government that set national economic development goals. Policies of the PRC government can have significant effects on economic conditions in the PRC and Hong Kong. While we believe that the PRC will continue to strengthen its economic and trading relationships with foreign countries and that business development in the PRC will continue to follow market forces, we cannot assure you that this will be the case. Our business operations and prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected by changes in policies by the PRC government, including:

Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political and economic policies of the PRC government and PRC laws and regulations could have a significant impact upon the business that we conduct in Hong Kong and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.

Our business operations may be adversely affected by the current and future political environment in the PRC. The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. The interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules may not always be uniform and the enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules may involve uncertainties for you and us. Our ability to operate in Hong Kong, conduct overseas offerings and continue to investment in Hong Kong based issuers may be harmed by these changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, healthcare regulations, environmental regulations, land use and property ownership rights, and other matters. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in Hong Kong or particular regions thereof, and could limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors or require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Hong Kong properties or joint ventures. Any such actions (including divesture or similar actions) could result in a material adverse effect on us and on your investment in us and could render our securities and your investment in our securities worthless.

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business, or the enforcement and performance of our contractual arrangements with borrowers in the event of the imposition of statutory liens, death, bankruptcy or criminal proceedings. Only after 1979 did the Chinese government begin to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws that regulate economic affairs in general, deal with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade, as well as encourage foreign investment in China. Although the influence of the law has been increasing, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. Also, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published cases and their lack of force as precedents, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve significant uncertainties. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. In addition, there have been constant changes and amendments of laws and regulations over the past 30 years in order to keep up with the rapidly changing society and economy in China. Because government agencies and courts that provide interpretations of laws and regulations and decide contractual disputes and issues may change their interpretation or enforcement very rapidly with little advance notice at any time, we cannot predict the future direction of Chinese legislative activities with respect to either businesses with foreign investment or the effectiveness on enforcement of laws and regulations in China. The uncertainties, including new laws and regulations and changes of existing laws, as well as may cause possible problems to foreign investors.

Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than two decades, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in the PRC through the allocation of resources, controlling payments of foreign currency, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries in different ways. We cannot assure you that the PRC government will continue to pursue policies favoring a market-oriented economy or that existing policies will not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption, or other circumstances affecting political, economic and social life in the PRC.

The future development of national security laws and regulations in Hong Kong could materially impact our business by possibly triggering sanctions and other measures which can cause economic harm to our business.

On May 28, 2020, the National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China approved a proposal to impose a new national security law for Hong Kong and authorized the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress to proceed to work out details of the legislation to be implemented in Hong Kong (the “Decision”). The Decision states that the new law will target secession, subversion of state power, terrorism activities and foreign interference. The stated objective of the Decision is to protect the national security of China as a whole (including Hong Kong and Macau) and is not intended to have a direct commercial bearing on commercial and economic activities. The government believes the new law may bring about more stability to Hong Kong, which in turn may lay the foundation for commercial and economic activities to flourish. On June 30, 2020, China’s National People’s Congress Standing Committee passed the national security law for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). Hong Kong’s Chief Executive promulgated it in Hong Kong later the same day. Among other things, it criminalizes separatism, subversion, terrorism and foreign interference in Hong Kong. We cannot rule out the possibility that the Decision and the implementation of the national security law may trigger sanctions or other forms of penalties by foreign governments, which may cause economic and other hardship for Hong Kong, including companies like us that do business in Hong Kong. It is difficult for us to predict the impact, in any, the implementation of the national security law will have on our business, as such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Our Hong Kong subsidiary may be subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments to us, which may restrict its ability to satisfy liquidity requirements, conduct business and pay dividends to holders of our common stock. Dividends payable to our foreign investors and gains on the sale of our shares of common stock by our foreign investors may become subject to tax by the PRC.

QDM is a holding company incorporated in Florida with its operating subsidiary located in Hong Kong. Accordingly, most of our cash is maintained in Hong Kong Dollars. We conduct no other business and, as a result, we depend entirely upon our Hong Kong operating subsidiary’s earnings and cash flow. If we decide in the future to pay dividends, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiary. There are currently no restrictions of transferring funds between our Florida holding company and our operating subsidiary in Hong Kong or limitations on the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiary to issue dividends or other distributions to its overseas shareholders. However, we cannot assure you that the oversight of the PRC government will not be extended to companies operating in Hong Kong like our Hong Kong operating subsidiaries. There is a possibility that the PRC government could prevent our cash maintained in Hong Kong from leaving or the PRC could restrict the deployment of the cash into our business or for the payment of dividends. Any such controls or restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our stockholders and could result in a material adverse change to our business operations, our prospects, financial condition, and results of operations, and could cause our common stock to significantly decline in value or become worthless.

The market price for our securities could be adversely affected by increased tensions between the United States and China.

Recently there have been heightened tensions in the economic and political relations between the United States and China. On June 30, 2020, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress issued the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. This law defines the duties and government bodies of Hong Kong for safeguarding national security and four categories of offences—secession, subversion, terrorist activities and collusion with a foreign country or external elements to endanger national security—and their corresponding penalties. On July 14, 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump signed the Hong Kong Autonomy Act, or HKAA, into law, authorizing the U.S. administration to impose blocking sanctions against individuals and entities who are determined to have materially contributed to the erosion of Hong Kong’s autonomy. On August 7, 2020, the U.S. government imposed HKAA-authorized sanctions on eleven individuals, including Hong Kong chief executive Carrie Lam. The HKAA further authorizes secondary sanctions, including the imposition of blocking sanctions, against foreign financial institutions that knowingly conduct a significant transaction with foreign persons sanctioned under this authority. The imposition of sanctions such as those provided in the HKAA is in practice discretionary and highly political, especially in a relationship as extensive and complex as that between the United States and China. It is difficult to predict the full impact of the HKAA on Hong Kong and companies like us. Furthermore, legislative or administrative actions in respect of Sino-U.S. relations could cause investor uncertainty for affected issuers, including us, and the market price of our securities could be adversely affected.

Our business, financial condition and results of operations, and/or the value of our common stock or our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be materially and adversely affected to the extent the laws and regulations of the PRC become applicable to a company such as us.

We currently have only immaterial, non-substantive operations in mainland China. YeeTah does not sell any insurance products in mainland China or solicit customers or collect, store or process any personal data of any customer in China, and is not regulated by any insurance regulator in mainland China. As a result, the laws and regulations of the PRC do not currently have any material impact on YeeTah’s business, financial condition and results of operations. However, as we operate in Hong Kong, a special administrative region of China, there is no guarantee that if certain existing or future laws of the PRC become applicable to a company such as us, it will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations and/or our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, any of which may cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Except for the Basic Law, national laws of the PRC do not apply in Hong Kong unless they are listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. National laws that may be listed in Annex III are currently limited under the Basic Law to those which fall within the scope of defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong. National laws and regulations relating to data protection, cybersecurity and the anti-monopoly have not been listed in Annex III and do not apply directly to Hong Kong.

The laws and regulations in the PRC are evolving, and their enactment timetable, interpretation and implementation involve significant uncertainties. To the extent any PRC laws and regulations become applicable to us, we may be subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with the legal system in the PRC, including with respect to the enforcement of laws and the possibility of changes of rules and regulations with little or no advance notice.

We may also become subject to the laws and regulations of the PRC to the extent we commence business and customer facing operations in mainland China as a result of any future acquisition, expansion or organic growth.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence and discretion over the manner in which companies incorporated under the laws of PRC must conduct their business activities. We are a Hong Kong-based company with no substantive operations in mainland China. However, if we were to become subject to such direct influence or discretion, it may result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock, which would materially affect the interest of the investors.

We have only immaterial, non-substantive operations in mainland China. We primarily operate in Hong Kong, a special administrative region of China. In addition, YeeTah does not sell any insurance products in mainland China or solicit any customer in China, and is not regulated by any insurance regulator in mainland China. The PRC government currently does not exert direct influence and discretion over the manner in which we conduct our business activities outside of mainland China, however, there is no guarantee that we will not be subject to such direct influence or discretion in the future due to changes in laws or other unforeseeable reasons or as a result of our expansion or acquisition of operations in mainland China. See “— Our business, financial condition and results of operations, and/or the value of our common stock or our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be materially and adversely affected by existing or future laws and regulations of the PRC which may become applicable to a company such as us.”

The PRC legal system is evolving rapidly and the PRC laws, regulations, and rules may change quickly with little advance notice. In particular, because these laws, rules and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited number of published decisions and the non-precedential nature of these decisions, the interpretation of these laws, rules and regulations may contain inconsistences, the enforcement of which involves uncertainties. The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over many sectors of the PRC economy through regulation and/or state ownership. Government actions have had, and may continue to have, a significant effect on economic conditions in the PRC and businesses which are subject to such government actions.

If we were to become subject to the direct intervention or influence of the PRC government at any time due to changes in laws or other unforeseeable reasons or as a result of our development, expansion or acquisition of operations in the PRC, it may require a material change in our operations and/or result in increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. In addition, the market prices of our common stock could be adversely affected as a result of anticipated negative impacts of any such government actions, as well as negative investor sentiment towards Hong Kong-based companies subject to direct PRC government oversight and regulation, regardless of our actual operating performance. There can be no assurance that the Chinese government would not intervene in or influence our operations at any time.

We are not currently required to obtain permission from the PRC government for the trading of our common stock on the OTCQB, however there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case in the future, or even when such permission is obtained, it will not be subsequently denied or rescinded. Any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings (including businesses whose primary operations are in Hong Kong) that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in Hong Kong-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. Our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that we are not subject to cybersecurity review with the CAC, given that: (i) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations; and (ii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. In addition, our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that we are not subject to merger control review by China’s anti-monopoly enforcement agency due to the level of our revenues which provided from us and audited by our auditor, and the fact that we currently do not expect to propose or implement any acquisition of control of, or decisive influence over, any company with revenues within China of more than RMB400 million. Currently, these statements and regulatory actions have had no impact on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange.

Under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from being traded on any U.S. securities exchange, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, or through any other trading method within the SEC’s regulatory jurisdiction, including the OTC markets if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in trading in our securities being prohibited. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges or the OTC markets if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three.

As part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on access to audit and other information currently protected by national law, in particular China’s, in June 2019, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced bills in both houses of Congress that would require the SEC to maintain a list of issuers for which the PCAOB is not able to inspect or investigate an auditor report issued by a foreign public accounting firm. The Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on our Exchanges (EQUITABLE) Act prescribes increased disclosure requirements for such issuers and, beginning in 2025, the delisting from national securities exchanges of issuers included for three consecutive years on the SEC’s list. On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed S. 945, the HFCA Act. The HFCA Act was approved by the U.S. House of Representatives on December 2, 2020. On December 18, 2020, the former U.S. president signed into law the HFCA Act. In essence, the HFCA Act requires the SEC to prohibit foreign companies from listing securities on U.S. securities exchanges or trading through any other trading method within the SEC’s regulatory jurisdiction, including trading on the OTC markets, if a company retains a foreign accounting firm that cannot be inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, beginning in 2021. The enactment of the HFCA Act and any additional rulemaking efforts to increase U.S. regulatory access to audit information could cause investor uncertainty for affected issuers, including us, and the market price of our securities could be adversely affected, and our securities could be prohibited from being traded on any U.S. national securities exchange, or through any other trading method within the SEC’s regulatory jurisdiction, including the OTC markets if it is unable to cure the situation to meet the PCAOB inspection requirement in time. On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCA Act. We will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies it as having a “non-inspection” year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. The SEC is assessing how to implement other requirements of the HFCA Act, including the listing and trading prohibition requirements described above. If we fail to meet the new rules before the deadline specified thereunder, we could face possible prohibition from trading on the OTCQB, deregistration from the SEC and/or other risks, which may materially and adversely affect, or effectively terminate, our securities trading in the United States. On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions.

Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges or the OTC markets if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three. On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final rule implementing the HFCA Act, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (i) China, and (ii) Hong Kong.

The audit report included in this Report was issued by ZH CPA, LLC, a U.S. based accounting firm that is registered with the PCAOB and can be inspected by the PCAOB. We have no intention of dismissing ZH CPA, LLC in the future or engaging any auditor not based in the U.S. and not subject to regular inspection by the PCAOB. There is no guarantee, however, that any future auditor engaged by the Company would remain subject to full PCAOB inspection during the entire term of our engagement. The PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections in China or Hong Kong without the approval of relevant government authorities. If it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate our auditor completely, investor may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Any audit reports not issued by auditors that are completely inspected by the PCAOB, or a lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China or Hong Kong that prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditors’ audits and their quality control procedures, could result in a lack of assurance that our financial statements and disclosures are adequate and accurate.

The SEC may propose additional rules or guidance that could impact us if our auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspection. For example, on August 6, 2020, the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets, or the PWG, issued the Report on Protecting United States Investors from Significant Risks from Chinese Companies to the then President of the United States. This report recommended the SEC implement five recommendations to address companies from jurisdictions that do not provide the PCAOB with sufficient access to fulfil its statutory mandate. Some of the concepts of these recommendations were implemented with the enactment of the HFCA Act. However, some of the recommendations were more stringent than the HFCA Act. For example, if a company’s auditor was not subject to PCAOB inspection, the report recommended that the transition period before a company would be delisted would end on January 1, 2022.

The SEC has announced that the SEC staff is preparing a consolidated proposal for the rules regarding the implementation of the HFCA Act and to address the recommendations in the PWG report. It is unclear when the SEC will complete its rulemaking and when such rules will become effective and what, if any, of the PWG recommendations will be adopted. The implications of this possible regulation in addition to the requirements of the HFCA Act are uncertain. Such uncertainty could cause the market price of our securities to be materially and adversely affected, and our securities could be delisted and prohibited from being traded on the national securities exchange earlier than would be required by the HFCA Act. If our securities are unable to be listed on another securities exchange by then, such a delisting would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with a potential delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our securities.

If we become directly subject to the recent scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business operations and our reputation and could result in a loss of your investment in our shares, especially if such matter cannot be addressed and resolved favorably.

U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting and reporting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on our company and our business. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend the Company. This situation may be a major distraction to our management. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our Company and business operations will be severely hampered and your investment in our stock could be rendered worthless. In addition, major issues with other U.S. listed Chinese companies in the future, could have a negative effect on the value of your investment, even though the Company is not involved.

Because a majority of our operations are based in Hong Kong, we are subject to the regulations and rules of the Hong Kong government as well as the influence of the Chinese government. The Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in Hong Kong may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

As such, the Company’s business segments may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate. The Company could be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. The Company’s operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry. Given that the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time with little to no advanced notice, it could result in a material change in our operation and the value of our common stock. Given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Furthermore, it is uncertain when and whether the Company will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government for our current quotation on the OTCQB or any future application to have our securities list on a U.S. stock exchange, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. Although the Company is currently not required to obtain permission from any PRC regulatory authorities and has not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, our operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry. As a result, our common stock may decline in value dramatically or even become worthless should we become subject to new requirement to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchange in the future.

Recently, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Severe and Lawful Crackdown on Illegal Securities Activities, which were available to the public on July 6, 2021. These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies. These opinions proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems, to deal with the risks and incidents facing China-based overseas-listed companies and the demand for cybersecurity and data privacy protection. Moreover, the State Internet Information Office issued the Measures of Cybersecurity Review (Revised Draft for Comments, not yet effective) on July 10, 2021, which require operators with personal information of more than 1 million users who want to list abroad to file a cybersecurity review with the Office of Cybersecurity Review. The aforementioned policies and any related implementation rules to be enacted may subject us to additional compliance requirement in the future. While we believe that our operations are not affected by this, as these opinions were recently issued, official guidance and interpretation of the opinions remain unclear in several respects at this time. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will remain fully compliant with all new regulatory requirements of these opinions or any future implementation rules on a timely basis, or at all.

It may be difficult for stockholders to enforce any judgment obtained in the United States against us, which may limit the remedies otherwise available to our stockholders.

Substantially all of our assets are located in Hong Kong. Moreover, half of our current directors and officers are Chinese nationals. All or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for our stockholders to effect service of process within the United States upon our subsidiaries or any individuals. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Hong Kong or the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our officers and/or directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of Hong Kong against us or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. It is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the United States and the PRC would permit effective enforcement against us or our officers and directors of criminal penalties under the United States Federal securities laws or otherwise.

In addition, the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, the PRC courts will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC laws or national sovereignty, security, or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with its counterparts of another country or region to monitor and oversee cross-border securities activities, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States may not be efficient in the absence of a practical cooperation mechanism. Furthermore, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, or “Article 177,” which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Article 177 further provides that Chinese entities and individuals are not allowed to provide documents or materials related to securities business activities to foreign agencies without prior consent from the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council. While detailed interpretation of or implementing rules under Article 177 have yet to be promulgated, the inability for an overseas securities regulator to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by you in protecting your interests.

U.S. regulatory bodies may be limited in their ability to conduct investigations or inspections if our operations are based in China.

Any disclosure of documents or information located in China by foreign agencies may be subject to jurisdiction constraints and must comply with China’s state secrecy laws, which broadly define the scope of “state secrets” to include matters involving economic interests and technologies. There is no guarantee that requests from U.S. federal or state regulators or agencies to investigate or inspect our operations will be honored by us, by entities who provide services to us or with whom we associate, without violating PRC legal requirements, especially as those entities are located in China. Furthermore, under the current PRC laws, any on-site inspection by any of these regulators may be limited or prohibited.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The limited public trading market may cause volatility in our stock price.

The quotation of our common stock on the OTCQB does not assure that a meaningful, consistent and liquid trading market currently exists, and in recent years such market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of many smaller companies like us. Our common stock is thus and will be subject to significant volatility. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock.

An active and visible trading market for our common stock may not develop.

Although our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB marketplace operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., trading has been very limited and we cannot predict whether an active market for our common stock will develop in the future. We are not applying for the listing of our common stock on a national exchange. In the absence of an active trading market:

The OTCQB is an unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter market that provides significantly less liquidity than Nasdaq Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange. The trading price of the common stock is expected to be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results, changes in analysts’ earnings estimates, announcements of innovations by us or our competitors, general conditions in the industry in which we operate and other factors. These fluctuations, as well as general economic and market conditions, may have a material or adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

We may not maintain qualification for OTCQB inclusion, and therefore you may be unable to sell your shares.

Our common stock is eligible for quotation on the OTCQB. However, trading of our common stock could be suspended. If for any reason our common stock does not become eligible or maintain eligibility for quotation on the OTCQB or a public trading market does not develop, purchasers of shares of our common stock may have difficulty selling their shares should they desire to do so. If we are unable to satisfy the requirements for quotation on the OTCQB, any quotation in our common stock could be conducted in the “pink sheets” market. As a result, a purchaser of our common stock may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of their shares. This would materially and adversely affect the liquidity of our securities.

Even if a market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock may be significantly volatile, which could result in substantial losses for purchasers.

The market price for our common stock may be significantly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

In some cases, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, stockholders have often instituted class action securities litigation against those companies. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could significantly harm our business operations and reputation.

Our controlling stockholder may exercise significant influence over us and may be subject to conflicts of interest.

Our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President, Huihe Zheng, owns approximately 97.1% of our outstanding voting power. Mr. Zheng thus has the power, on his own, to determine the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors, approval of equity incentive plans, and other significant corporate actions. Mr. Zheng also has the power to prevent or cause a change in control. In addition, without the consent of Mr. Zheng, we could be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to us. The interests of Mr. Zheng may differ from the interests of our other stockholders, which cause him to be faced with conflicts of interests that may not be resolved in favor of or to the satisfaction of our minority stockholders.

The Series B and Series C Preferred Stock, which are controlled by our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, have super voting rights that may adversely affect our holders of common stock.

Except as required by law, holders of Series B and Series C Preferred Stock (which is currently controlled by Huihe Zheng, our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer) are entitled to super voting rights. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to 100 votes and each share of Series C Preferred Stock is initially entitled to eleven votes for each share of common stock into which such share of Series C Preferred Stock could then be converted. Holders of Series B and Series C Preferred Stock will vote together on all matters upon which common stock holders are entitled to vote. The voting rights of holders of our common stock will be diluted as a result of these super voting rights.

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock,” and thereby be subject to additional sale and trading regulations that may make it more difficult to sell.

Our common stock, which is currently quoted on OTCQB, may be considered to be a “penny stock” if it does not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of “penny stock” under Section 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act, as amended. Our common stock may be a “penny stock” if it meets one or more of the following conditions: (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is NOT traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) is issued by a company that has been in business less than three years with net tangible assets less than $5 million. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to: (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit your ability to buy and sell our common stock, which could depress the price of our shares.

FINRA rules require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customer before recommending that investment to the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status and investment objectives, among other things. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares, and thereby depress our share price.

You may face significant restrictions on the resale of your shares due to state “blue sky” laws.

Each state has its own securities laws, often called “blue sky” laws, which (1) limit sales of securities to a state’s residents unless the securities are registered in that state or qualify for an exemption from registration, and (2) govern the reporting requirements for broker-dealers doing business directly or indirectly in the state. Before a security is sold in a state, there must be a registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from registration. The applicable broker-dealer must also be registered in that state.

We do not know whether our securities will be registered or exempt from registration under the laws of any state. A determination regarding registration will be made by those broker-dealers, if any, who agree to serve as market makers for our common stock. We have not yet applied to have our securities registered in any state and will not do so until we receive expressions of interest from investors resident in specific states after they have viewed this Report. There may be significant state blue sky law restrictions on the ability of investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our securities. You should therefore consider the resale market for our common stock to be limited, as you may be unable to resell your shares without the significant expense of state registration or qualification.

Our management has determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective and we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and we identified several material weaknesses. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In addition, as of March 31, 2022, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses result from the following: (i) lack of proper segregation of duties and risk assessment process; (ii) lack of formal documentation in internal controls over financial reporting; and (iii) lack of independent directors and an audit committee.

Each of the material weaknesses described above could result in a misstatement of our accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. We cannot assure you that any measures we may take in the future will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses described above or avoid potential future material weaknesses. If we are unable to report financial information timely and accurately or to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, our stock price could be negatively impacted and we could be subject to, among other things, regulatory or enforcement actions by the SEC.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by industry or financial analysts. If no or few analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock would likely decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

We do not foresee paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future and, as a result, our investors’ sole source of gain, if any, will depend on capital appreciation, if any.

We do not plan to declare or pay any cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the foreseeable future and currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth. As a result, investors should not rely on an investment in our securities if they require the investment to produce dividend income. Capital appreciation, if any, of our shares may be investors’ sole source of gain for the foreseeable future. Moreover, investors may not be able to resell their common stock at or above the price they paid for them.

The rights of the holders of common stock may be impaired by the potential issuance of preferred stock.

Our Board of Directors may, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting, dividend, conversion, liquidation or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and equity interest of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock, which could be issued with the right to more than one vote per share, could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control. The possible impact on takeover attempts could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Although we have no present intention to issue any additional shares of preferred stock or to create any new series of preferred stock, we may issue such shares in the future.

You may experience additional dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we have issued equity securities in the past and may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per unit in our previous equity offering. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions, may be lower than the price per share paid by investors in our previous equity offering.

Shares of our common stock that have not been registered under federal securities laws are subject to resale restrictions imposed by Rule 144, including those set forth in Rule 144(i) which apply to a former “shell company.”

Prior to the closing of the Share Exchange, we were deemed a “shell company” under applicable SEC rules and regulations because we had no or nominal operations and either no or nominal assets, assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. Pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, sales of the securities of a former shell company, such as us, under that rule are not permitted (i) until at least 12 months have elapsed from the date on which our Current Report on Form 8-K reflecting our status as a non-shell company, was filed with the SEC; (ii) unless at the time of a proposed sale, we are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months, other than Form 8-K reports; or (iii) until the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to our common stock. Therefore, unless we register such shares of common stock for sale under the Securities Act, most of our stockholders will be forced to hold their shares of our common stock for at least that 12-month period before they are eligible to sell those shares, and even after that period, sales may not be made under Rule 144 unless we and the selling stockholders are in compliance with other requirements of Rule 144. Further, it will be more difficult for us to raise funding to support our operations through the sale of debt or equity securities unless we agree to register such securities under the Securities Act, which could cause us to expend significant time and cash resources. Additionally, our previous status as a shell company could also limit our use of our securities to pay for any acquisitions we may seek to pursue in the future (although none are currently planned). The lack of liquidity of our securities as a result of the inability to sell under Rule 144 for a longer period of time than a non-former shell company could cause the market price of our securities to decline.

Our principal executive office is located at Room 715, 7F, The Place Tower C, No. 150 Zunyi Road, Changning District, Shanghai, China 200051. We also lease office space located at Room 1005, 10/F, Emperor Group Centre, 288, Hennessey Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong, for a monthly rent of HKD23,000 (approximately US$2,963) under a lease starting from May 2021.

We do not lease or own any other properties. Our principal executive office is provided by Mr. Huihe Zheng free of charge.

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company or its subsidiaries are a party or in which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company. We may from time to time be subject to legal or administrative claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Litigation or any other legal or administrative proceeding, regardless of the outcome, is likely to result in substantial cost and diversion of our resources, including our management’s time and attention.

Not applicable.

PART II

(a) Market Information

Our common stock is quoted on OTCQB Marketplace operated by the OTC Markets under the symbol “QDMI.” There has been limited trading in our shares of common stock. We cannot assure you that there will be an active market in the future for our common stock.

(b) Stockholders of Record

Based upon information furnished by our transfer agent, as of June 27, 2022, we had approximately 253 stockholders of record. Because some of our common stock is held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of beneficial stockholders.

(c) Dividends

We are permitted under the Florida law to provide funding to our subsidiaries, including YeeTah, through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds. There are no restrictions or limitations on our ability to distribute earnings from our businesses, including subsidiaries, to the U.S. investors. YeeTah is permitted under the laws of Hong Kong to provide funding to QDM HK and QDM BVI, the holding company incorporated in Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands, respectively, through dividend distribution without restrictions on the amount of the funds. As of the date of this Report, there has been no dividends or distributions between our holding company and our subsidiaries nor do we expect such dividends or distributions to occur in the foreseeable future among our holding company and its subsidiaries.

YeeTah currently intends to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of its business and does not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. There are no significant restrictions and limitations on our ability to distribute earnings from our businesses, including our subsidiaries, to the parent company and U.S. investors or our ability to settle amounts owed. There are no restrictions on foreign exchange or our ability to transfer cash between entities within our group, across borders, or to U.S. investors. However, the PRC government has significant authority to intervene or influence the China operations of an offshore holding company at any time, and such oversight may also extend to our Hong Kong operating company. We cannot assure you that the PRC government will not prevent us from transferring the cash we maintain in Hong Kong outside of Hong Kong, or restrict our ability to deploy our cash into business or to pay dividends. We could also be subject to limitations on the transfer or the use of our cash if we expand our business operations into China or conduct our operations in some other ways such that we become subject to PRC laws that regulate these activities. In addition, if YeeTah incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. Any limitation on our ability to transfer or use our cash could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

We have never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The declaration of dividends on any class of shares is within the discretion of the board of directors, subject to the Florida law, out of legally available funds, and will depend on the assessment of, among other factors, earnings, capital requirements and our operating and financial condition. If we determine to pay dividends on any of our capital stock in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our Hong Kong subsidiary YeeTah. None of our subsidiaries has made any dividends or distributions to us. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by us. There are no restrictions or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong imposed on the conversion of HKD into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of Hong Kong. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business and Industry – We rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.”

Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors after considering our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual requirements, business prospects and other factors the board of directors deems relevant, and subject to the restrictions contained in any future financing instruments.

Current PRC regulations permit PRC companies to pay dividends to its overseas shareholders only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of such companies in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Each of such entity in China is also required to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at the discretion of its board of directors. Although the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess of retained earnings of the company, the reserve funds are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation. As of the date of this Report, we do not have any PRC subsidiaries.

There are no other significant restrictions and limitations on our ability to distribute earnings from our businesses, including our subsidiaries, to the parent company and U.S. investors or our ability to settle amounts owed. There are no significant restrictions on foreign exchange or our ability to transfer cash between entities within our group, across borders, or to U.S. investors. The PRC government has significant authority to intervene in or influence the China operations of an offshore holding company at any time, and such oversight may also extend to our Hong Kong operating company. We cannot assure you that the PRC government will not prevent us from transferring the cash we maintain in Hong Kong outside of PRC, or restrict our ability to deploy our cash into business or to pay dividends. We could also be subject to limitations on the transfer or the use of our cash if we expand our business operations into China or conduct our operations in some other ways such that we become subject to PRC laws that regulate these activities. Any limitation on our ability to transfer or use our cash could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

If needed, cash can be transferred between our holding company and subsidiaries through intercompany fund advances, and there are currently no restrictions of transferring funds between our Florida holding company and its subsidiaries. No transfer of cash or other types of assets has been made between our Florida holding company and its subsidiaries as of the date of this Report.

We currently do not have any equity compensation plans.

Pursuant to the Agreement with HeWuHuiYing, HeWuHuiYing will promote our brand, products and services in mainland China, including business development, market research, referral and selection of business partners and clients, customer services and other related services. In consideration for such services, we agreed to issue to HeWuHuiYing an aggregate of 50,000 Compensation Shares (1,500,000 Compensation Shares before the Reverse Stock Split) (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like, including to account for any equity securities into which such shares are exchanged or converted; provided, however, HeWuHuiYing shall only be entitled to (i) 50% of the Compensation Shares if we achieve a revenue of at least US$4 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022; and (ii) the remaining 50% of the Compensation Shares if we achieve a revenue of at least US$6 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. The determination of whether or not the performance targets are achieved shall be based on our audited financial statements for the applicable period. The foregoing performance targets shall be met on an all-or-nothing basis, and there shall be no partial issuance. Upon satisfaction of the performance targets, the applicable portion of the Compensation Shares shall be issued to HeWuHuiYing in four equal installments on a quarterly basis beginning on the date of determination that the applicable target is met.

The issuance of the Compensation Shares will be in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

The issuance of Conversion Shares was deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

(f) Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

None.

The following discussion and analysis is based on, and should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Report. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains statements that are forward-looking. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risk, uncertainties and other factors. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. Actual results could differ materially because of the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this Report, and other factors that we may not know.

Overview

From 2016 to 2020, we were a telemedicine company that provides Connect-a-Doc telemedicine kits to schools. Our services aimed to provide alternatives to schools that desire to provide a higher level of healthcare to their students but are unable to keep a full-time school nurse available. In 2020 this business was discontinued and we became a non-operating “shell” company.

Following the change in control in March 2020, we planned to conduct insurance brokerage business in Hong Kong, through either formation or acquisition of an existing insurance brokerage business. To implement our business plan, during 2020, we engaged professionals (legal counsel and accountants) to evaluate the optimal corporate structure for our new business and conduct due diligence on a potential target.

On October 21, 2020, we entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with QDM BVI, and Huihe Zheng, the sole shareholder of QDM BVI, who is also our principal stockholder and serves as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI in exchange for the issuance to Mr. Zheng 900,000 shares of a newly designated Series C Preferred Stock, with each share of Series C Preferred Stock initially being convertible into 11 shares of our common stock, subject to certain adjustments and limitations. The Share Exchange closed on October 21, 2020.

As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange, we acquired QDM BVI and its indirect subsidiary, YeeTah, an insurance brokerage company primarily engaged in the sales and distribution of insurance products in Hong Kong. Following the closing of the transaction, we have assumed the business operations of QDM BVI and its subsidiaries.

Impact of COVID-19 and Protests

Impact of COVID-19

An outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in China and has subsequently been recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity around the world. In response to this pandemic, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions, including Hong Kong, have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations and advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes.

With social distancing measures having been implemented to curtail the spread of COVID-19, insurance brokers in Hong Kong, such as YeeTah, which relied primarily on storefront and in-person consultations for new business production faced an immediate slowdown. In addition, Hong Kong has suspended mainland tourists’ free travel and requested those who travel from the mainland and enter Hong Kong undergo quarantine for 14 days.

Customers from mainland China contributed to a large part of YeeTah’s commissions. Regulations require their physical presence in Hong Kong to complete the policy contract. However, due to the political turmoil and travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 epidemic, mainland Chinese customers have dropped sharply. As a result, YeeTah’s revenue from commissions on new business has decreased significantly. YeeTah’s commissions from renewal premiums have also been materially affected since the mainland Chinese customers have been late in making the renewal payments due to inability to visit Hong Kong to make the payments. Most of YeeTah’s mainland customers do not have Hong Kong bank account and used to pay their premiums through credit card or in cash in person.

Impact of Protests in Hong Kong

Since early 2019, a number of political protests and conflicts have occurred in Hong Kong in connection with proposed legislation that would allow local authorities to detain and extradite people who are wanted in territories that Hong Kong does not have extradition agreements with, including mainland China and Taiwan. On June 30, 2020, China’s National People’s Congress Standing Committee passed a national security law for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). Hong Kong’s Chief Executive promulgated it in Hong Kong later the same day. Among other things, it criminalizes separatism, subversion, terrorism and foreign interference in Hong Kong. The economy of Hong Kong has been negatively impacted, including the retail market, property market, stock market, and tourism, from such protests.

Under the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong is exclusively in charge of its internal affairs and external relations, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. We cannot assure you that the Hong Kong protests will not affect Hong Kong’s status as a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and thereby affecting its current relations with foreign states and regions.

Our revenue is susceptible to Hong Kong protests as well as any other incidents or factors which affect the stability of the social, economic and political conditions in Hong Kong. As a result of the Hong Kong protests, we experienced a drop in new customers from mainland China beginning in June 2019, which impacted our revenue for the period from June 2019 to the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

It is unclear whether there will be other political or social unrest in the near future or that there will not be other events that could lead to the disruption of the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong. If such events persist for a prolonged period of time or that the economic, political and social conditions in Hong Kong are to be disrupted, our overall business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Results of Operations

Years Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021

The following table presents an overview of our results of operations for the years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

Revenue

Revenue decreased by approximately $54,000 or 44.1% for the year ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in the number of customers, primarily PRC mainland customers, resulting from the prolonged COVID-19 travel restriction imposed by Hong Kong government during the year ended March 31, 2022.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales represented commissions paid to individuals or companies who referred customers to us. The amount decreased by approximately $54,000 or 44.0% for the year ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021. The decrease was in line with the decrease of revenue.

Gross margin

Gross margin was 0.2% for the year ended March 31, 2022, which was consistent with 0.3% for the same period of last year.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of stock-based payments, employee salaries, office rents, insurance costs, general office operating expenses (e.g., utilities, repairs and maintenance) and professional fees. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $44,000 or 13.2% for the year ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an $42,000 increase of legal expenses in 2022 in connection with the Reverse Stock Split and increased SEC filing activities.

Net loss

As a result of the factors described above, net loss for the year ended March 31, 2022 increased by approximately $52,000 or 16.0% as compared to the same period of 2021.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar (“US$”). The Company’s operations are principally conducted in Hong Kong where the Hong Kong dollar is the functional currency. The functional currency of the Company’s two subsidiaries, Lutter Global Limited and QDMI Software Group Limited, is the Euro.

Transactions denominated in other than the functional currencies are re-measured into the functional currency of the entity at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currencies are translated into the functional currency at the prevailing rates of exchange at the balance date. The resulting exchange differences are reported in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.

The exchanges rate used for translation from Hong Kong dollar to US$ was 7.8000, a pegged rate determined by the linked exchange rate system in Hong Kong. This pegged rate was used to translate Company’s balance sheets, income statement items and cash flow items for both the years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

The exchanges rates used for translation from Euro to US$ are as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations primarily through cash generated by operating activities, equity financings and advances from our principal stockholder. QDM is a holding company and conducts substantially all of its operations through YeeTah, which is its only entity that has cash inflows and outflows. Our expenses are paid directly either by YeeTah or our principal stockholder. There have been no cash and any asset transactions between us and our subsidiaries since the Share Exchange. As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, we had $69,658 and $35,605, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents, which primarily consisted of cash deposited in banks.

Our working capital requirements mainly comprise of commissions paid to technical representatives and referral fees, operating lease payments and employee salaries. Historically, our capital requirements were generally met by cash generated from our operations, equity financings and funding from our principal stockholder. In light of impact on our operations from the civilian protests in Hong Kong and the COVID-19 epidemic in China and Hong Kong, we undertook certain cost cutting measures, including but not limited to, relocating to a new office with a much lower rent and reducing the number of employees. Discretionary expenditures are also curtailed or reduced to save costs. In addition to adjusting our operating expenditures, we will continue to seek opportunities of equity financings and financial supports from our principal stockholder. Although historically we were successful in obtaining equity financings through the sales of our securities and obtaining loans from our principal stockholder, the availability of such financings when required is dependent on many factors beyond our control, such as the unforeseeable impact from COVID-19 and the recovery of the Hong Kong economy following the civilian protests.

Operating Activities:

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $399,000 for the year ended March 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $369,000 for 2021, representing an increase of approximately $29,000 in the net cash outflow in operating activities. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase of net loss of $52,000 in the year ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021, offset by the following working capital changes:

Financing Activities:

Net cash generated from financing activities was approximately $436,000 for the year ended March 31, 2022, which was attributable to the net results of: (i) stockholder advances of approximately $290,000; (ii) share issuance proceeds of approximately $200,000; and (iii) prepaid legal fees. 

Net cash generated from financing activities was approximately $342,000 for the year ended March 31, 2021, which was attributable to the net results of: (i) stockholder advances of approximately $644,000; (ii) cash used in reverse acquisition of approximately $251,000; (iii) cash of approximately $71,000 incurred for future equity issuance; and (iv) shareholder capital contributions of approximately $20,000.

Material Commitments

We have no material commitments for the next twelve months. We will, however, require additional capital to meet our liquidity needs.

We had one office lease agreement and our lease commitments as of March 31, 2022 are summarized as follows:

Operating lease

The future aggregate minimum lease payments under the non-cancellable office operating lease are as follows:

Critical Accounting Estimates

There were no areas requiring significant management judgments and estimates for the periods covered by this Report.

Off-balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements that had or were reasonably likely to have any effect on their respective financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Not applicable.

QDM International Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of QDM International Inc. and the subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, consolidated statements of stockholders’ deficit, and consolidated statements of cash flows for the two years period ended March 31, 2022, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years period ended March 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2022 and 2021

1. Organization and principal activities

QDM International Inc. (“we,” the “Company” or “QDM”) was incorporated in Florida in March 2020 and is the successor to 24/7 Kid Doc, Inc. (“24/7 Kid”), which was incorporated in Florida in November 1998. The Company conducts its business through an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, YeeTah Insurance Consultant Limited (“YeeTah”), a licensed insurance brokerage company located in Hong Kong, China. YeeTah sells a wide range of insurance products, consisting of two major categories: (1) life and medical insurance, such as individual life insurance; and (2) general insurance, such as automobile insurance, commercial property insurance, liability insurance, homeowner insurance. In addition, as a Mandatory Provident Fund (“MPF”) Intermediary, YeeTah also assists its customers with their investment through the MPF and the Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance schemes (“ORSO”) in Hong Kong, both of which are retirement protection schemes set up for employees.

On October 21, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with QDM Holdings Limited, a BVI company (“QDM BVI”), and Huihe Zheng, the sole shareholder of QDM BVI (the “QDM BVI Shareholder”), who is also the Company’s principal stockholder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI in exchange for the issuance to the QDM BVI Shareholder 900,000 shares of a newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Shares”), with each Series C Preferred Share initially being convertible into 11 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, subject to certain adjustments and limitations (the “Share Exchange”). The Share Exchange closed on October 21, 2020.

As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of QDM BVI and its subsidiaries, QDM Group Limited, a Hong Kong corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of QDM BVI (“QDM HK”) and YeeTah.

The Company was a shell company prior to the reverse acquisition which occurred as a result of the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, and QDM BVI was a private operating company. The reverse acquisition by a non-operating public shell company by a private operating company typically results in the owners and management of the private company having actual or effective voting and operating control of the combined company. Therefore, the reverse acquisition is considered a capital transaction in substance. In other words, the transaction is a reverse recapitalization, equivalent to the issuance of stock by the private company for the net monetary assets of the shell company accompanied by a recapitalization. Therefore, the acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization and QDM BVI is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of QDM BVI have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.

Accordingly, the reverse acquisition has been treated as a corporate restructuring (reorganization) of entities under common control and thus the current capital structures of QDM BVI and its wholly-owned subsidiary QDM HK and its wholly-owned subsidiary, YeeTah, have been retrospectively presented in prior periods as if such structures existed at that time and in accordance with ASC 805-50-45-5.

As a result of the Share Exchange, the Company ceased to be a shell company.

On November 3, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of QDMI Software Group Limited (“QDMS”), a company incorporated on February 6, 2020 in Cyprus. The Company acquired QDMS through an intermediary holding company, Lutter Global Limited (“LGL”), which was incorporated on July 29, 2021 in the BVI. Before the acquisition, Huihe Zheng was the sole shareholder of QDMS. As part of the acquisition, Mr. Zheng sold all the shares of QDMS to LGL for a consideration of EUR5,000 in November 2021 and at the same time the sole shareholder of LGL, Mengting Xu, transferred all her shares in LGL to the Company for a consideration of USD$1.00. As a result, the Company acquired a 100% ownership of LGL, which, in turn, owns 100% of QDMS. Accordingly, the acquisition has been treated as a corporate restructuring (reorganization) of entities under common control and thus the current capital structures of QDMS and LGL have been retrospectively presented in prior periods as if such structures existed at that time and in accordance with ASC 805-50-45-5.

Unless the context specifically requires otherwise, the term “Company” used herein means QDM International Inc. together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries described above.

Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2022. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating revenue and profit in the future and/or to obtain necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months primarily through financings from the Company’s major shareholder, although the Company may seek other sources of funding, including public and private offerings of securities.

These consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a “going concern.” While management believes that the actions already taken or planned, including adjusting its operating expenditures and obtaining financial supports from its principal shareholder, will mitigate the adverse conditions and events which raise doubt about the validity of the “going concern” assumption used in preparing these financial statements, there can be no assurance that these actions will be successful. If the Company were unable to continue as a “going concern,” then substantial adjustments would be necessary to the reported amounts of its liabilities, the reported expenses and the consolidated balance sheet classifications used.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of Presentation

On October 21, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved a change to its fiscal year end from December 31 to March 31, which is the fiscal year end of YeeTah, to align its reporting periods to be more consistent with YeeTah.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make certain 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. The reported amounts of revenues and expenses may be affected by the estimates that management is required to make. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the US$. The Company’s operations are principally conducted in Hong Kong where Hong Kong dollar is the functional currency. The functional currency of the Company’s two subsidiaries, Lutter Global Limited and QDMI Software Group Limited, is the Euro.

Transactions denominated in other than the functional currencies are re-measured into the functional currency of the entity at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currencies are translated into the functional currency at the prevailing rates of exchange at the balance date. The resulting exchange differences are reported in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The exchanges rates used for translation from Hong Kong dollar to US$ was 7.8000, a pegged rate determined by the linked exchange rate system in Hong Kong. This pegged rate was used to translate Company’s balance sheets, income statement items and cash flow items for both 2022 and 2021.

The exchanges rates used for translation from Euro to US$ are as follows:

Certain Risks and Concentration

The Company’s financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables, and other assets. As of March 31, 2022, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held in major financial institutions located in Hong Kong, which management considers to being of high credit quality.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of petty cash on hand and cash held in banks, which are highly liquid and have original maturities of three months or less and are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represents trade receivable and are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently adjusted for any allowance for doubtful accounts and impairment.

The Company makes impairment loss for bad and doubtful debts based on assessments of the recoverability of the trade and other receivables based on individual account analysis, including the current creditworthiness and the past collection history of each debtor. Impairments arise when there is an objective evidence indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of bad and doubtful debts, in particular of a loss event, requires the use of judgment and estimates, which involve the estimates of specific losses on individual exposures, as well as a provision on historical trends of collections. Based on management of customers’ credit and ongoing relationship, management makes conclusions whether any balances outstanding at the end of the period will be deemed uncollectible on an individual basis and on aging analysis basis. The provision is recorded against accounts receivables balances, with a corresponding charge recorded in the statements of income and comprehensive income. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.

The Company historically did not have material bad debts in accounts receivable. There were no bad debt expenses for the years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and there was no provision for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily by providing insurance brokerage services in Hong Kong. The Company sells insurance products underwritten by insurance companies operating in Hong Kong to its individual customers and is compensated for its services by commissions paid by insurance companies, typically based on a percentage of the premium paid by the insured. The Company adopted ASC 606 for its fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. There were no material unfinished contracts with customers on the adoption date of ASC 606.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, under ASC 605, the basic criteria necessary for revenue recognition were:

Revenue is recognized when the brokerage services are rendered under ASC 605.

ASC 606 provides for a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. These five steps include:

The Company enters into contracts with our customers (insurance companies) primarily through written contracts. Performance obligation for these insurance brokerage contracts is to help our insurance company customers to promote, coordinate and complete subscriptions of insurance policies offered by our customers.

Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when the customer obtains control of a good or service. A customer obtains control of a good or service if it has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from that good or service. The transfer of control of the Company’s brokerage services generally occurs at a point in time on the effective date of the associated insurance contract when the policy transfers to the customer. The insurance policy entered between the insurance company and the insured customer generally contains a cool-off period of one to two months. When the cool-off period elapses and the insured customer does not withdraw from the insurance policy, the policy becomes effective. Once the transfer of control of a service occurs, the Company has satisfied its insurance brokerage performance obligation and recognizes revenue.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

The established fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due from related parties, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related party and lease liabilities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due from related parties, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related party approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. For lease liabilities, fair value approximates their carrying value at the yearend as the interest rates used to discount the host contracts approximate market rates. 

The Company noted no transfers between levels during any of the periods presented. The Company did not have any instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring nor non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2022.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis, after consideration of expected useful lives and estimated residual values. The estimated annual deprecation rate of these assets are generally as follows:
