1. Description of business and organization
Nature of operations
ADGS Advisory, Inc. (“the Company” or “ADGS”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in September 2007 under the name Life Nutrition Products, Inc. Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation filed with the State of Delaware and effective as of July 19, 2013, the Company changed its corporate name from “Life Nutrition Products, Inc.” to “ADGS Advisory, Inc.”
On December 7, 2012, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Original Exchange Agreement”) with ADGS Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“ADGS Hong Kong”) and ADGS Advisory (Holding) Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“ADGS Holding”). Pursuant to the Original Exchange Agreement, at the closing of the transaction contemplated thereunder (the “ADGS Transaction”), the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong, making ADGS Hong Kong a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Original Exchange Agreement (the Original Exchange Agreement, as amended is referred to herein as the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Almonds Kisses Limited (BVI), a British Virgin Islands company (“Almonds Kisses BVI”), from the eight shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI (the “Shareholders”), instead of the shares of ADGS Hong Kong, on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement. Almonds Kisses BVI is the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong. The Original Exchange Agreement incorrectly indicated that such owner was ADGS Holding which error was corrected in the Amendment.
On April 12, 2013, the ADGS Transaction closed whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Almonds Kisses BVI pursuant to the Exchange Agreement in exchange for an aggregate of 20,155,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock which were issued to the eight former shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI. As a result, on April 12, 2013, Almonds Kisses BVI became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the former shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI became the Company’s controlling shareholders, and Almond Kisses BVI in turn owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong. Almond Kisses (BVI) also owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Vantage Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation. ADGS Hong Kong owns 80% of ADGS Tax Advisory Limited (“ADGS Tax”) which is a Hong Kong incorporated holding company, and ADGS Tax owns a 30% interest in Dynamic Golden Limited which is also a Hong Kong incorporated company and through Almonds Kisses owns its 30% effective on November 19, 2013.
The Company also acquired a property holding company, Motion Tech Development Limited, incorporated in British Virgin Islands. The transfer of shares was completed in August 29, 2013 and it is now 100% owned by Almond Kisses.

1. Description of business and organization (…../Cont’d)
Nature of operations (…../Cont’d)
In October 20, 2013, Almonds Kisses BVI further acquired 100% ownership of a Hong Kong incorporated company, T H Strategic Management Limited for purchase consideration of approximately $516,000 (HK$4,000,000). T H Strategic Management Limited is engaged in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services.
ADGS Advisory, Inc. is a holding company and, through its subsidiaries and group company, engages in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial, consultancy services and consultancy service for slope inspection. The Company together with its consolidated subsidiaries and its equity-method investment, are collectively referred to as the “Group”. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a "reverse merger", since the former stockholders of Almond Kisses own a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock immediately following the Share Exchange.
Reorganization
Almond Kisses was incorporated on March 1, 2011 as a limited liability company in British Virgin Island. ADGS Hong Kong and its subsidiary and equity-method investment, were limited companies incorporated in Hong Kong had been wholly owned by the same group of shareholders until being acquired by Almonds Kisses pursuant to a reorganization (“Reorganization”) to prepare for the listing of the Company’s shares on a stock exchange. ADGS Tax provided the same type of services prior to the establishment of ADGS Hong Kong. ADGS Tax became a dormant holding company after ADGS Hong Kong was incorporated.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures for a fair presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2013, as filed in Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2013.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 1. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization since the shareholders of Almond Kisses (i) own a majority of the outstanding capital stock of ADGS immediately following the completion of the transaction, and (ii) have significant influence and the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity, and Almond Kissess senior management dominates the management of the consolidated entity immediately following the completion of the transaction in accordance with the provision of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805 Business Combinations. Accordingly, Almond Kisses is deemed the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction is treated as a recapitalization of Almond Kisses. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the financial statements are those of Almond Kisses and its subsidiaries and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Almond Kisses and its subsidiaries. ADGSs assets, liabilities and results of operations are consolidated with the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Almond Kisses and its subsidiaries subsequent to the acquisition.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative period amounts to conform with that of the current period.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the years. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount and the estimated useful lives of long-live assets; valuation allowances for receivables, and realizable values for inventories. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign currency translation
The Group uses United States dollars (“U.S. Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes. The subsidiaries within the Company maintain their books and records in their respective functional currency, Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”), being the lawful currency in Hong Kong. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated from H.K. Dollars into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Items on the statements of income and comprehensive income and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income included in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheets. The exchange rates used to translate amounts in HKD into U.S. Dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Direct cost of revenues does not include an allocation of overhead costs.
Direct costs from providing consultancy service for slope inspections under fixed price contracts are recognized, as the related contact costs are incurred.
Cash
Cash represents cash in banks and cash on hand.
The Group considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Substantially all of the cash deposits of the Group are held with financial institutions located in the Hong Kong, PRC. Management believes these financial institutions are of high credit quality. The group held no cash equivalents at May 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013.
Restricted cash

Account receivables
Account receivables are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and discounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Group’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Group’s existing accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions. The Group historically has been able to collect all of its receivable balances.
Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Group does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure to its customers.
Other receivables and advance to a third party
Other receivables represent non-trade receivables from non-related third parties, and are recognized initially at fair value.

Deferred revenue
The Company entered into a contract with a third party to provide corporate advisory and consulting services. The agreement has a fixed term of four years, and is renewable upon maturity. These fees are deferred and are amortized to income as earned over the term of the agreement. Deferred revenue that will be recognized in next fiscal year is classified within current liabilities.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred; major renewals and improvements that extend the lives or increase the capacity of plant assets are capitalized.
When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the reporting period of disposition.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets after taking into account their respective estimated residual value.
The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
Estimated Life
|
|
Investment property |
Over the unexpired term of the lease
|
Leasehold improvement
|

Equity-method investment
Affiliated companies, in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, are accounted for equity-method investment. Equity-method investment adjustments include the Company’s proportionate share of investee income or loss, gains or losses resulting from investee capital transactions, adjustments to recognize certain differences between the Company’s carrying value and the Company’s equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment, impairments, and other adjustments required by the equity method. Gain or losses are realized when such investments are sold.

Intangible assets
The Group assesses the useful lives and possible impairment of existing recognized intangible assets when an event occurs that may trigger such a review. Factors considered important which could trigger a review include:
- significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
|
- significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
|
- identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;
|
- disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;
|
- significant negative industry or economic trends;
|
The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.
Goodwill
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment based on its identified reporting units, which are defined as reportable segments or groupings of businesses one level below the reportable segment level. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further quantitative impairment testing is necessary.
In accordance with the guidance, the Company reviews goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances made it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value of its reporting units, determined using externally quoted prices (if available) or a discounted cash flow model and, when deemed necessary, a market approach. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, but are not limited to, such estimates as projected business results, growth rates, the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital, royalty and discount rates.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company evaluates when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets to be held and used might not be recoverable, the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the assets are estimated and compared with the carrying amount of the assets. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows was less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss would be recorded. The impairment loss would be measured on a location by location basis by comparing the fair value of the asset with its carrying amount. Long-lived assets that are held for disposal are reported at the lower of the assets’ carrying amount or fair value less costs related to the assets’ disposition. No impairment has been recognized.
Assets under capital lease
Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (…/Cont’d)
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income includes net income and also considers the effect of other changes to stockholders' equity that are not included in the determination of net income, but rather are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. The Group reports foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments (those which are considered temporary) as components of comprehensive income.
Earnings per share
Basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options.
Income taxes
The Group accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes". Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be effective when the differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Group records uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax positions will not be sustained upon examination by the respective tax authority.
The Group recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. For the nine months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.

Fair value measurements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU 2010-06” “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. The new guidance clarifies two existing disclosure requirements and requires two new disclosures as follows: (1) a “gross” presentation of activities (purchases, sales, and settlements) within the Level 3 rollforward reconciliation, which will replace the “net” presentation format; and (2) detailed disclosures about the transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 measurements. This guidance is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the gross presentation of the Level 3 rollforward information, which is required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim reporting periods thereafter. The Company adopted the amended fair value disclosures guidance on January 1, 2012. As of May 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013, none of the Company’s financial assets or liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of May 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013, none of the Company’s non-financial assets or liabilities was measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets, bank loans, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities and other payables, are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available. It is not practicable to estimate the fair values of advance to and advance from related parties because of the related party nature of such advances.
Recent issued accounting standards
There are no new significant accounting standards applicable to the Company that have been issued but not yet adopted by the Company as of May 31, 2014.

3. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The Company has three (3) reportable business segments: accounting and corporate services, corporate restructuring and insolvency and multi-disciplinary advisory. The Company evaluates performance based on net operating profit. Administrative functions are centralized however, where applicable, portions of the administrative function expenses are allocated between the operating segments. In the event any services are provided to one operating segment by the other, the transaction is valued according to the company’s transfer policy, which approximates market price. The administrative expenses are captured discretely within each segment. The Company’s property and equipment, and accounts receivable are captured and reported discretely within each operating segment.
The following tables show the operations of the Company’s reportable segments:

4. ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY
Almonds Kisses BVI entered into a share purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated October 20, 2013. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase all shares of T H Strategic, (the "Acquisition") for purchase consideration of approximately $516,000 (HK$4 million). The acquisition is to expand its market share in the Hong Kong accounting service industry. Almonds Kisses BVI has fully paid the consideration of acquisition before the end of February 2014. T H Strategic is engaged in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services. On October 20, 2013, the acquisition was consummated pursuant to the terms of Purchase Agreement and T H Strategic became a wholly owned subsidiary of Almonds Kisses BVI.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the Merger:
Assets/(liabilities)

Goodwill
|

Consideration
|
$ | 515,962 |
As the purchase price exceeds the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired or assumed, goodwill will be recognized. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the Acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill is recorded as an indefinite-lived asset and is not amortized but tested for impairment on an annual basis or when indications of impairment exist. No acquisition related costs incurred in this acquisition.
The following is a summary of revenues, expenses and net income of T H Strategic since the effective acquisition date (October 20, 2013) included in the consolidated results of operations for the Company during the period ended May 31, 2014:

The balances associated with accounting & corporate services and corporate restructuring & insolvency primarily represent the fees or expense charged by the Company's Chief Operating Officer and related parties as they are the practitioners that are licensed to provide insolvency and liquidation services for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013.
Income and expenses derived from the Multi-disciplinary Advisory service mainly are from the slope detection business. There was agreement signed between ADGS Hong Kong and a company owned by the CEO which has been dormant since its incorporation, namely Rodney Environmental Protection (China) Company Limited (“Rodney China”). Rodney China has entered business slope detection business agreement with a non-related party. This non-related party later signed an assignment letter acknowledging that it would be ADGS Hong Kong which would be the contracting party in substance. The related party transaction under the Multi-disciplinary Advisory section disclosed in this note reflected this arrangement.
See Notes 7 and 8 for discussion of advances to and from related parties.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures for a fair presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2013, as filed in Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2013.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 1. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
As both the Company and its subsidiaries, ADGS Hong Kong and ADGS Tax are under common control, the financial statements of the Company have been presented as if the receipt of assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries at their net carrying amount been entered into as of March 1, 2011 in accordance with ASC 805-50-15-6. Accordingly, financial information related to periods prior to the assets and liabilities are that of the Company’s operating subsidiaries.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative period amounts to conform with that of the current period.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the years. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount and the estimated useful lives of long-live assets; valuation allowances for receivables, and realizable values for inventories. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
6
Revenue recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily from providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial, consultancy services, consultancy service for slope inspection and rental income.
(i) Revenue generates from providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the related services are provided and when the collection is probable, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Group generates its revenues from providing professional services under fixed-fee billing arrangements.
In fixed-fee billing arrangements, the Company agrees to a pre-established fee in exchange for a pre-determined set of professional services. Generally, the client agrees to pay a fixed-fee in monthly installments over the specified contract term. These contracts are for varying periods and generally permit the client to cancel the contract before the end of the term.
(ii) Consultancy service for slope inspection represents under fixed price contract is recognized when the related services are provided and when the collection is probable, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
(iii) Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(iv) The Company recognizes the management fee income when service is provided. Services include providing administration support service or accounting service to companies.
Intangible assets
The Company assesses the useful lives and possible impairment of existing recognized intangible assets when an event occurs that may trigger such a review. Factors considered important which could trigger a review include:
- significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
|
- significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
|
- identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;
|
- disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;
|
- significant negative industry or economic trends;
|
The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.
Goodwill
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment based on its identified reporting units, which are defined as reportable segments or groupings of businesses one level below the reportable segment level. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further quantitative impairment testing is necessary.
7
In accordance with the guidance, the Company reviews goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances made it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value of its reporting units, determined using externally quoted prices (if available) or a discounted cash flow model and, when deemed necessary, a market approach. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, but are not limited to, such estimates as projected business results, growth rates, the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital, royalty and discount rates.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes”. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be effective when the differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company records uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax positions will not be sustained upon examination by the respective tax authority.
The Company recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. For the nine months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.
Economic and political risks
The major operations of the Company are conducted in Hong Kong, the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in Hong Kong, the PRC, as well as the general state of Hong Kong’s economy may influence the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the Company.
Among other risks, the Company's operations are subject to the risks of restrictions on: changing taxation policies; and political conditions and governmental regulations.

Recently issued accounting standards
There are no new significant accounting standards applicable to the Company that have been issued but not yet adopted by the Company as of May 31, 2014.
Trends and Uncertainties
Insofar that our revenues are mainly derived from providing professional services to our clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements, the number of clients we have at any given time and the fees billed are the Company’s key uncertainties. The recent growth in revenues was primarily due to the acquisition of customer lists and client bases in 2011 and, therefore, we cannot be certain that this growth represents a trend which will continue although we have recently made acquisitions and we plan to make additional acquisitions in the upcoming years and we are regularly exploring such opportunities which may benefit our business and increase our revenues. In the future, we expect that we will seek to purchase other customer lists and client bases as part of our overall growth strategy, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to do any of the foregoing on terms which will be acceptable to us.
Other key uncertainties include our high leverage and highly variable interest expense. To date, we have significantly relied upon debt financings to fund our operations. At May 31, 2014 (unaudited) and August 31, 2013 (audited), we had outstanding bank loans (excluding bank overdrafts) in the principal amount of $2,586,794 and $2,286,785, respectively. We also had bank overdrafts of $943,124 as of May 31, 2014 compared with $744,077 as of August 31, 2013. Interest expense from bank loans and overdrafts (excluding capital lease interest) for the nine months ended May 31, 2014 was $86,387 and for the nine months ended May 31, 2013 was $97,013. Such loans are primarily term loans with maturity dates ranging from May 2014 to October 2037. Approximately $1.7 million of the bank loans are to be repaid over the next five years. While we have begun to achieve profitable operations during fiscal 2013, there can be no assurance that such profitability will continue or that revenues from our operations will be able to service these debt obligations.
In addition to the foregoing, as of May 31, 2014, advances to a related party have been fully repaid. The previous advances to a related party represented unsecured, non-interesting bearing loans without fixed repayment terms. Although such advances have now been repaid to the Company, such advances may have detrimentally affected our ability to do business insofar that such advances represented a major portion of the Company’s available cash. These advances were provided as a special accommodation to such related party whose personal properties were provided as collateral for bank loans obtained by the Company. Although such advances are no longer being made to such related party, such advances represented another key uncertainty insofar that, prior to repayment, there was no assurance that such advances would be repaid. In addition, such advances did not generate any income to the Company and may have detrimentally affected our ability to grow the business for the benefit of all of the shareholders.
Principal Components of Our Income Statement
Revenue
Our revenue is derived from providing professional services to our clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements. The most significant factors that affect our revenue are number of clients and our fees billed. In fixed-fee billing arrangements, we agree to a pre-established fee in exchange for a pre-determined set of professional services. Generally, our client agrees to pay a fixed-fee every month over the specified contract term. These contracts are for varying periods and generally permit the client to cancel the contract before the end of the term.
Direct cost of revenue
Our direct cost of revenue primarily consists of commission paid, consultant fees, legal and professional fees, management fees, salaries, secretarial fees and sub-contractor fees.
9
General and administrative expenses
Our general and administrative expenses include advertising and exhibitions, computer fee, depreciation of property and equipment, motor vehicles, rent, rates and building management fee and other miscellaneous expenses related to our administrative activities.
Our operating expenses are positively correlated to our revenue, with the anticipated expansion of our Company, we anticipate the absolute dollars of the operating expenses will increase accordingly.
Other comprehensive income
Other comprehensive income reflects foreign currency translation adjustment according to our accounting policies.

Revenue
For the Nine Months Ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2013
Our business for the nine months ended May 31, 2014 expanded rapidly. We recorded revenue of $4 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2014, representing an increase of $1.3 million as compared to the results of $2.8 million for the same period ended May 31, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the increase of revenue stream in multi-disciplinary advisory services, mainly from the increase of the surveyors consultancy fee income (consultancy fee for slope inspection) and a steady growth in accounting and corporate services.
For the Three Months Ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2013
We recorded revenue of $1.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2014, representing an increase of $0.6 million as compared to $0.9 million for the same period ended May 31, 2013. Due to the large increase of the surveyors consultancy fee income (consultancy fee for slope inspection) and a steady growth in accounting and corporate services, the total revenue for the three months ended May 31, 2014 has increased by 66% as compared to the same period of 2013.

Most of the direct cost increase was in line with the business growth and there was surveying cost incurred in some of the new projects for the nine month period ended May 31, 2014. Although there was increase in the actual amount, the gross profit margin improved from 45.8% in the nine month period ended May 31, 2013 as compared with 54.7% in the nine month period ended May 31, 2014.
For the Three Months Ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2013

Available Future Financing Arrangements
The Company intends to have new capital injected to increase its working capital needs and business growth. There is also plan to sell its property holding companies and repays its loan received from its related party.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to shareholders.
We have not entered into any financial guarantees or commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us.
We may be exposed to interest rate risk in relation to the bank loans we maintain. The interest rate risk is managed by the Directors of the Company on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of limiting the extent to which interest expense could be affected by adverse movement in interest rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s post-tax profit for the nine months ended May 31, 2014 would increase/decrease by $5,945 as compared with the combined post-tax profit for the nine months ended May 31, 2013 while the Company’s post-tax profit for the three months ended May 31, 2014 would increase/decrease by $2,102 as compared with the combined post-tax profit for the three months ended May 31, 2013.
