NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
ASAP Expo, Inc. (“ASAP Expo” or the “Company”) d.b.a. ASAP International Holdings, was incorporated on April 10, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information
These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.
The balance sheets and certain comparative information as of December 31, 2013 are derived from the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2013 (“2013 Annual Financial Statements”), included in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2013 Annual Financial Statements.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
At March 31, 2014, the Company has a stockholders' deficit of $891,192, which mainly resulted from the accumulated deficit of its former parent company that was transferred to the Company upon its spin-off from the parent company, and a lack of profitable operating history. The Company hopes to increase revenues from its real estate business and financial advisory services business. In the absence of significant increases in revenues, the Company intends to fund operations through additional debt and equity financing arrangements. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
The Company's success is dependent upon numerous items, certain of which are the successful growth of revenues from its services and its ability to obtain new customers in order to achieve levels of revenues adequate to support the Company's current and future cost structure, for which there is no assurance. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently encountered in establishing and maintaining profitable operations. These include, but are not limited to, competition, the need to develop customer support capabilities and market expertise, technical difficulties, market acceptance and sales and marketing. The failure of the Company to meet any of these conditions could have a materially adverse effect on the Company and may force the Company to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given that the Company can achieve or maintain profitable operations.
The Company believes it will have adequate cash to sustain operations until it achieves sustained profitability. However, until the Company has a history of maintaining revenue levels sufficient to support its operations and repay its working capital deficit, the Company may require additional financing. Sources of financing could include capital infusions, additional equity financing or debt offerings. There can be no assurance that funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that such fund, if raised, would enable the Company to achieve or sustain profitable operations.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, prepaid expenses and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and due to/from affiliated company. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to the short term maturity of these instruments.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company’s adoption of fair value measurements and disclosures did not have a material impact on the financial statements and financial statement disclosures.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to ASC 605.
Revenues are mainly consulting fees. The consulting fees are recognized when earned. Consulting fees from investment banking services that are subject to refund are recorded as deferred revenue until the project is completed and the fees are no longer refundable.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net of operating loss carry forwards and credits, by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
A basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. Dilutive earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
As of the date this quarterly report is filed, there are no recently issued accounting pronouncements which adoption would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE NOTE, OFFICERS
On January 1, 2011, the Company obtained a convertible note from Frank Yuan, the Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and his family which provides for borrowings up to a maximum of $1,800,000 and is due on demand. The note carries an interest rate of 6.0% per annum and is convertible into the Company's equity securities at a conversion price of $0.04 given a written notice of the contemplated conversion describing in reasonable detail the material terms of such equity securities and of the issue is provided. On July 29, 2013, $229,760 of convertible note and interest was converted into 5,744,000 shares of common stock.
The balance of the convertible note as of March 31, 2014 was $192,279; the accrued interest on the note was $248,743 which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The balance of convertible note as of December 31, 2013 was $676,505 and the accrued interest on the note was $241,882.
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
As of March 31, 2013, the Company had Federal net tax operating loss carry forwards of approximately $8,712 available to offset future taxable income. However, the Company had reserved a full deferred tax assets valuation allowance so its balance sheet reported no deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2013 on the basis of the Company’s history of losses that more likely than not the Company will not realize operating loss carry forwards in the foreseeable future. As a result of the full deferred tax assets valuation allowance in the previous periods, the Company’s effective tax rate at December 31, 2013 was 0% because after utilizing the net operating loss carry forwards, the Company recorded no income taxes.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets at March 31, 2014 and 2013 are presented below:

The Company had historically carried a full deferred tax assets valuation allowance so its balance sheet reported no deferred tax assets. At March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company reversed deferred tax assets valuation allowance by $3,470 and $110,801, respectively, to reflect the effect of net operating loss actually utilized to reduce the tax liabilities for the respective periods.
Uncertain Tax Positions
Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as income tax and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties expenses. Currently, the Company is not subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.
NOTE 7 - SHAREHOLDERS' DEFICIT
Common Stock
At March 31, 2014, the Company has 45,000,000 shares of common stock authorized and 14,445,363 shares issued and outstanding at par value $0.001 per share.
On July 29, 2013, 5,744,000 shares of common stock were issued to an officer upon conversion of $200,000 of convertible note and $29,760 of accrued interest.

This annual report contains certain forward-looking statements and the Company's future operating results could differ materially from those discussed herein.

OVERVIEW
ASAP Expo (“ASAP” or “The Company” or “Our” or “We”) mission is to be the bridge between China and the Western world. ASAP is a holding company that assists Chinese institutional and high net worth individuals with acquisition advisory and asset management of U.S. hotels.
Our investors include AVIC International USA, Junson Capital, Urban Commons, Sky Harbor Management, Shenzhen New World, American Curvet, and USA Heritage.
From August 2010 until now, our group has provided consulting services regarding purchasing 20 hotels primarily in California, Georgia and Michigan. Hotel brands include Marriott, Hilton, Westin, Doubletree by Hilton, Four Points by Sheraton, and Holiday Inn. We are one of the most active hotel buyers in the market.
ASAP believes we will continue this growth for the next couple of years, taking advantage of current below replacement cost assets with reasonable cap rates and value-add opportunities in the current U.S. hotel market.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues
The Company earned consulting fee for providing advisory services in real estate acquisition deals. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company earned consulting fee of $612,000, as compared to a consulting fee of $542,462 for the same period last year because the Company closed more hotel acquisition deals this quarter. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company earned commission income of $625 from acting as merchandise purchasing agent as compared to commission income of $0 for the same period last year.
Cost of Sales
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred consulting expense of $291,000 and $180,300, respectively for providing advisory services in real estate acquisition deals. The higher consulting expense in 2014 was mainly due to the closing of more hotel acquisition deals in the first quarter.
Operating Expenses
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist primarily of administrative personnel costs, facilities expenses, and professional fee expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, general and administrative expenses increased $172,632 to $185,953 compared to $13,321 for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher personnel costs of $174,342 as the Company hired a new employee and put certain officer on payroll starting in September 2013.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $6,861 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 from $22,955 for the same period last year. This decrease was due to the lower average convertible note balances. The conversion of $200,000 convertible note into common stocks in July 2013 also contributed to the decrease in average convertible note balances.
Net Income
The Company recorded a net income of $77,360 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to a net income of $325,886 for the same period last year. The decrease in net income was mainly due to the lower gross profit, higher G&A expenses, and income tax provision, offset lower interest expense.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital deficit was $703,410 at March 31, 2014, as compared to a working capital deficit of $296,543 at December 31, 2013. During the next twelve months, ASAP Expo will focus on its real estate transactions to generate additional revenue. With the net revenue from its services, and continuing support from its major shareholders to provide a convertible note, management believes ASAP Expo will have enough net working capital to sustain its business for another 12 months.
The Company has a convertible note (the "Yuan Note") from Frank Yuan and his family, which is due on demand, and provides for borrowings up to a maximum total of $1,800,000. The Yuan Note carries an interest rate of 6.0% per annum and is convertible into the Company's equity securities at a conversion price of $0.04 given a written notice of the contemplated conversion describing in reasonable detail the material terms of such equity securities and of the issue is provided. The total balance as of March 31, 2014 was $192,279, and the accrued interest was $248,743.
The forecast of the period of time through which ASAP Expo’s financial resources will be adequate to support its operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties. ASAP Expo’s actual funding requirements may differ materially as a result of a number of factors, including unknown expenses associated with the cost of providing real estate advisory, investment banking, and management consulting services.
The Company has no commitments to make capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.
Over the next two to five years, The Company plans to utilize a combination of internally generated funds from operations and potential debt and equity financing to fund its long-term growth.
The Report of the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on our December 31, 2013 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph stating that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated stockholders' deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
At the present time, The Company has received no commitments for the funds required for its planned capital investments. Obtaining those funds, if the Company can do so, will require that it issues substantial amounts of equity securities or incur significant debts. The Company believes that the expected return on those investments will justify the cost. However, the Company’s plan, if accomplished, will significantly increase the risks to its liquidity.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the our financial statements and the accompanying notes. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported on our balance sheet and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, stock based compensation and the valuation of deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, "Revenue Recognition" outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to ASC 605.
Revenues are mainly consulting fees. The Consulting fees are recognized when earned. Consulting fees subject to refund are recorded as deferred revenue until the project is completed and the fees are no longer refundable.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, "Income Taxes." Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. Management provides a valuation allowance for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be recovered.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
As of the date this quarterly report is filed, there are no recently issued accounting pronouncements which adoption would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control over financial reporting and, as such, are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is expressed at the level of reasonable assurance that the control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met (see the section below in this Item 3 entitled Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls).
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the period covered by this Report, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
