Rebel Group, Inc. (f/k/a Inception Technology Group, Inc., the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on September 13, 2011. The Company organizes, promotes and hosts mixed martial arts (“MMA”) events featuring top level athletic talent. With assistance from contracted production crews, the Company also produces and distributes, through the internet and social media, and sells the rights to distribute to television stations, videos of its MMA events. The Company seeks to promote MMA in Asian countries through hosting events that attract talented fighters from all over the world.

On June 21, 2017, Pure Heart, a wholly owned subsidiary, formed Rebel Shanghai Limited, which was incorporated in Shanghai China in order to acquire Qingdao Quanyao Sports Consulting Co. Ltd. and the business expansion in the southern part of PRC.

On October 1, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Transfer Agreement (the “Share Transfer”) with Naixin Qi, an individual (the “Shareholder”), the sole shareholder of Qingdao Quanyao Sports Consulting Co. Ltd, a company organized under the laws of PRC (the “Qingdao Quanyao”).

Basis of presentation and consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Rebel Group, Inc. (“Rebel” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Operating results for the interim period ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on April 16, 2018.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company's audited consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The fiscal year end is December 31.

Liquidity and capital resource

As of March 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $127,831, increased $87,459, when comparing with $40,372 as of December 31, 2017. The net cash used in operating activities for the period ended March 31, 2018 was $954,511, increased about $738,236 when comparing with $216,275 for the period ended March 31, 2017. The net increase in cash and cash equivalents was mainly result from cash provided by financing activities. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by advances from shareholders. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if the Company will be able to maintain profitability and continue growth for the foreseeable future. If management is not able to increase revenue and manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the Company may not be able to maintain profitability.

The Company will focus on improving operation efficiency and cost reduction, developing core cash-generating business. Actions include extent the advances from the major shareholders, seeking additional public and/or private issuance of securities, as well as look for strategic business partners to optimize our operations. On March 16, 2018, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Shaw Chai Li Howard, a third party investor (the “Investor”). The Investor is expected to remit three equal instalments in the amount of $1 million each, and $3 million in the aggregate, in exchange for such numbers of the Company’s common stock as determined pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, all three instalments are expected to be remitted prior to December 31, 2018. The Company also received financial support commitments from the Company’s major shareholder.

Liquidity and capital resource (continued)

The Company believes that available cash and cash equivalents, together with actions as mentioned above, should enable the Company to meet presently anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements are issued. However, if the Company is unable to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms, it will be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures. Any of these factors would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations and raise substantial doubts about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classifications of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method.  Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under Topic 605. Topic 606 prescribes a five step model for recognizing revenue which includes (i) identifying contracts with customers; (ii) identifying performance obligations; (iii) determining the transaction price; (iv) allocating the transaction price and (v) recognizing revenue.

Use of estimates

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

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use the Company maintained accounts at banks and have not experienced any losses from such concentrations.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value information of financial instruments requires disclosure, whether or not recognized in the balance sheets, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial assets and liabilities are excluded from fair value disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, financial instruments of the Company primarily comprise of cash, other receivable, and accrued expenses, which the carrying amounts approximated their fair values because of their generally short maturities.

The Company uses quoted prices in active markets to measure the fair value of the long-term investment.

Foreign currency translation and transactions

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (“US$”), which is also the Company’s functional currency. The Singapore and PRC subsidiaries maintain their books and records in its local currency, the Singapore dollar (“SGD”) and Renminbi dollar (“RMB”), which are their functional currencies as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.

Transactions in foreign currencies other than functional currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the statements of income. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the statements of income.

The Company translated the assets and liabilities into US dollars using the rate of exchange prevailing at the applicable balance sheet date and the statements of income and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period.  Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded in investors’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Income taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the combined financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income (refer to the header “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the impact to the enacted tax laws in 2017). Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Entities should recognize in the audited consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statements of operations.

In January 2018, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) to provide guidance for companies that have not completed their accounting for the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act in the period of enactment. Specifically, SAB 118 states that companies that have not completed accounting for the effects of the 2017 Tax Act by financial reporting deadlines may report provisional amounts based on reasonable estimates for items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts will be subject to adjustment during a measurement period that begins in the reporting period that includes the 2017 Tax Act’s enactment date and ends when a company has obtained, prepared and analyzed the information needed to complete the accounting requirements under ASC 740 Income Taxes. The measurement period should not extend beyond one year from the enactment date. Furthermore, SAB 118 states that if a company cannot make a reasonable estimate for an income tax effect, it should not account for that effect until it can make such an estimate.

One-time transitional tax. As part of the 2017 Tax Act, total foreign earnings and profits (“E&P”) after 1986, that were previously deferred from U.S. federal taxation, are subject to a one-time tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company’s provisional analysis of the one-time transition tax resulted in no additional taxes being owed due to the overall accumulated E&P deficit for the income tax purpose.

The Company has determined that we cannot make a reasonable estimate of the income tax effect with respect to global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) provisions of the 2017 Tax Act. The GILTI provisions allow companies to make an accounting policy election to either (i) account for GILTI as a component of tax expense in the period in which the entity is subject to the rules or (ii) account for GILTI in the entity’s measurement of deferred taxes. Our ultimate accounting policy election will depend on our estimates of future taxable income related to GILTI. Refer to the Note12 – “Income Taxes” for further discussion on the impact of tax laws enacted during 2017.

Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period while the effects of potential common shares outstanding during the period are included in diluted earnings per share.  The average market price during the year is used to compute equivalent shares.

Employee equity share options, non-vested shares and similar equity instruments granted to employees be treated as potential common shares in computing diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share should be based on the actual number of options or shares granted and not yet forfeited, unless doing so would be anti-dilutive. The Company uses the “treasury stock” method for equity instruments granted in share-based payment transactions.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Equipment                                 3 - 5 years

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Intangible assets

Intangible assets, comprising trade mark and other intangible assets, which are separable from the fixed assets, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 10 years.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized but rather tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting until level by applying a fair-value based test in accordance with accounting and disclosure requirements for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. This test is performed by management annually or more frequently if the Company believes impairment indicators are present.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, other than goodwill including property and equipment and intangible assets with definite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying values of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amounts of the assets, the Company would recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the assessed discounted cash flow amount.

Impairment of goodwill 

The Company reviews the carrying value of intangible assets with indefinite lives not subject to amortization, including goodwill, to determine whether impairment may exist annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment has occurred. The Company has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step assessment. If the Company believes, as a result of the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the two-step quantities impairment test described below is required. The first step compares the fair values of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, the assets are not considered to be impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business acquisition with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill. Estimating fair value is performed by utilizing various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow.

Long-term investment

Investments comprise marketable securities which are classified as available-for-sale securities and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity (deficit). The Company determines any realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities on a specific identification method and records such gains and losses as a component of other comprehensive loss, net of taxes in the consolidated statement of operations.

Comprehensive income (loss)

The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 220 (“ASC 220”) “Comprehensive income” (formerly known as SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”), which establishes standards for reporting and the presentation of comprehensive income (loss), its components and accumulated balances. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the unrealized fair value (loss) gain on long-term investment and the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments of the Company.

Concentrations and risks 

-     Foreign currency risk

A majority of the Company’s expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Our functional currency is the RMB and Singapore dollars in subsidiaries in China and Singapore, respectively, and our financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. The Singapore dollars depreciated by 7.6% in fiscal year 2017. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the RMB and the U.S. dollar in the future. The change in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar may affect our financial results reported in the U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying changes in our business or results of operations. Currently, our assets, liabilities, revenues and costs are denominated in RMB.

To the extent that the Company needs to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for capital expenditures and working capital and other business purposes, appreciation of RMB against U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the RMB amount the Company would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if the Company decides to convert RMB into U.S. dollar for the purpose of making payments for dividends, strategic acquisition or investments or other business purposes, appreciation of U.S. dollar against RMB would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to the Company.

-     Concentration of credit risk

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $97,125, and $39,709 of cash and cash equivalents on deposit at financial institutions in Singapore, respectively.

-     Significant customers

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, one company accounted for 74% and 81% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance, respectively.

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash flows from the Company’s operations are formulated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Risks and Uncertainties

The significant operations of the Company are located in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, may not be indicative of future results.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance, and creates guidance for when revenue should be recognized from the exchange of goods or services. ASU No. 2016-08 was issued in March 2016 to clarify the principal versus agent guidance in this new revenue recognition standard. ASU 2016-10 was issued in April 2016 to clarify the guidance on accounting for licenses of intellectual property and identifying performance obligations in the new revenue recognition standard. ASU 2016-12 was issued in May 2016 to clarify the guidance on transition, collectability, noncash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes in the new revenue recognition standard. ASU 2016-20 was issued in December 2016 to make technical corrections and improvements on narrow aspects of this guidance. ASU No. 2015-14 was issued in August 2015 to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year. The new standard permits adoption either by using (i) a full retrospective approach for all periods presented in the period of adoption or (ii) a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted the revenue recognition guidance beginning January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method of adoption. The Company has determined that the adoption of Topic 606 would not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” This new standard eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, which means that it will be effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020 assuming the Company still remains an emerging growth company at that date. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2017-04 on its consolidated financial statements.

Aside from the above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting statements, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or on the results of operations.

On January 30, 2015, MOXC issued a convertible promissory note to the Company for $7,782,000 (the “MOXC Note”). The MOXC Note would become due and payable on October 30, 2015. Under the MOXC Note, MOXC has the option to convert any and all amounts due under the MOXC Note into the shares of MOXC’s shares of common stock (the “MOXC Common Stock”) at the conversion price of $1.00 per share (“Conversion Price”), if the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of MOXC Common Stock for 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion is higher than the Conversion Price.

The United States of America

Rebel Group, Inc. is incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in the U.S., and is subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax. The State of Florida imposes corporate state income tax at 5.5%. As of December 31, 2017, future net operating losses of approximately $8.8 million are available to offset future operating income through 2036.

On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Act was enacted into law. Beginning January 1, 2018, the 2017 Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred, creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings, repeals the Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”), and expands the number of individuals whose compensation is subject to a $1.0 million cap on deductibility, amongst other changes. In certain cases, as described below, we have made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our existing deferred tax balances and refundable AMT credit. In other cases, we have not been able to make a reasonable estimate and continue to account for those items based on our existing accounting and the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately prior to enactment. We will continue to refine our calculations as additional analysis is completed.

With respect to global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provisions of the 2017 Tax Act, the Company is continuing to evaluate how the provisions will be accounted for. The GILTI provisions allow companies to make an accounting policy election to either (i) account for GILTI as a component of tax expense in the period in which the entity is subject to the rules or (ii) account for GILTI in the entity’s measurement of deferred taxes. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not elected a method due to its continuing analysis of the GILTI provisions. The elected method will depend, in part, on analyzing global income.

Overview

The Company, through Rebel FC, organizes, promotes and hosts Mixed Martial Arts events featuring top level athletic talent with assistance from contracted production crews. The Company also seeks to produce and distribute videos of its MMA events, through the internet, social media, and selling the rights to such videos to distribute to television stations.

The Company seeks to promote MMA in China through hosting top quality matches, live TV broadcast and inspiring reality series that attract talented fighters from all over the world. MMA is unarmed combat involving the use of a combination of techniques from different disciplines of martial arts, including, without limitation, grappling, submission holds, kicking and striking. The styles of martial arts range from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Karate, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Jeet Kune Do, Taekwondo, Sanshou and various other forms of martial arts. Unlike boxing, where athletes can only strike with their fists and only above the belt, the fighters in MMA can use punches, kicks, elbows, knee strikes, takedowns and submissions to win a contest.

The Company successfully held two events in 2017. On August 12, 2017, an event titled Battle Royal: Quest for Glory was held at Kerry Hotel in Pudong, Shanghai together with Quanyao. On September 2, 2017, the Company held another event titled China vs. The World at Shenzhen Stadium in Shenzhen together with Quanyao. This event was broadcast live on Qingdao TV and several major social media platforms. For the two events in year 2017, Quanyao paid Pure Heart USD200,000 per event for royalty and management fee in accordance with 2017 Cooperation Agreement. 

On June 21, 2017, Pure Heart formed Rebel Shanghai Limited, which was incorporated in Shanghai China in order to acquire Qingdao Quanyao Sports Consulting Co. Ltd. and the business expansion in PRC.

On October 1, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Transfer Agreement (the “Share Transfer”) with Naixin Qi, an individual (the “shareholder”), the sole shareholder of Qingdao Quanyao Sports Consulting Co. Ltd., a company organized under the laws of PRC (the “Qingdao Quanyao”).

Pursuant to the Transfer Agreement, Pure Heart, through Rebel Shanghai Limited agreed to acquire 100% share of the outstanding equity interests (the “Equity Stake”) of the Qingdao Quanyao from the Shareholder with the purchase price valued at approximately $7,000,000 consisting of the following: (i) the forgiveness of debt owed by the Target Company to Pure Heart as of October 1, 2017, in the amount of approximately $2,825,000 (the “Forgiven Debts”) and (ii) 12,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (together the “Purchase Price”).

The Company plans to hold eight events in 2018 with two in Shanghai, two in Guangzhou, two in Shenzhen and two in Beijing. However, there can be no assurance that such events will occur, or even if they do occur there can be no guarantee that such events will be successful or profitable.

The first event in 2018 was held on April 29, 2018 at Kerry Hotel in Shanghai. The event was broadcast live by Guangdong Sports TV, other satellite TV stations major social media platforms. The viewership for the event from television and social media, respectively, were 4.06 million and 8.33 million.

Gross Revenues

The Company received sales revenues of $0 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and three months ended March 31, 2017 were $1,482,815 and $168,658, respectively. The expenses for each such period consisted of filing fees, professional fees, payroll and benefits and other general expenses. The increase in expenses was due to operational expansion in China.

Other Income

Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and three months ended March 31, 2017 were nil.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $1,497,395 and $176,400 respectively. Basic and diluted net loss per share amounted to $0.03 and $0.01 respectively for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2018, we had working capital deficit of $2,103,432 and cash on hand of $127,831 as compared to working capital deficit of $1,739,033 and cash on hand of $40,372 as of December 31, 2017.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $954,511 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $216,275 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The cash used in operating activities is mainly for filing fees, professional fees, payroll and benefits and general expenses.

The increase of net cash for operating activities in the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was due to increased expenses for business expansion.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $1,039,224 as compared to $395,691 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if we will be able to maintain profitability and continue growth for the foreseeable future. If management is not able to increase revenue and manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the Company may not be able to maintain profitability.

On March 16, 2018, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Shaw Chai Li Howard, a third party investor (the “Investor”). The Investor is expected to remit three equal installments in the amount of $1 million each, and $3 million in the aggregate, in exchange for such numbers of the Company’s common stock as determined pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, all three installments are expected to be remitted prior to December 31, 2018. The Company also received financial support commitments from the Company’s major shareholder.

We believe that available cash and cash equivalents, together with actions as mentioned above, should enable us to meet presently anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements are issued. However, if we are unable to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms, it will be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures. Any of these factors would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations and may raise substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern. 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant estimates and assumptions include depreciation and the fair value of our stock, stock-based compensation, debt discount and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Reference is made to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this Report for information related to new accounting pronouncement, none of which had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, and the future adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements, which we do not expect will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
