PART I

Item 1. Business.

Overview and Background

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 21, 2013, under the name Nuts & Bolts International, Inc. It was incorporated to engage in the business of publishing eBooks under the Nuts and Bolts brand name. Its business operations were conducted through its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Nuts and Bolts Publishing, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company. From inception through February 29, 2016, the Company conducted limited operations including publishing two eBooks and one online “self-help” course on how to start a freelancing business.

On February 29, 2016, the Company had a change of control. On that date, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Lai Teck Peng, a resident of Malaysia, acquired control of the Company through purchase of 5,000,000 shares of common stock, representing approximately 77.67% of its issued and outstanding common stock. On the same date, the previous officers and directors of the Company resigned, and Mr. Lai was appointed as a Director and as CEO of the Company.

Following the change of control the Company elected to discontinue the eBook publishing operations previously carried on through its wholly-owned operating subsidiary.

Current Operations

Following the change of control, the Company intends to engage in the business of acting as an investment holding company and providing management and consulting services.

As of July 31, 2019, the Company has engaged in limited business operations, but it has agreed to provide management and consulting services to Trendmaker Pte. Ltd., a Singapore entity.

FOR THAT REASON, THESE STATEMENTS INVOLVE RISK AND UNCERTAINTY SINCE NO ONE CAN ACCURATELY PREDICT THE FUTURE. WORDS SUCH AS “PLANS,” “INTENDS,” “WILL,” “HOPES,” “SEEKS,” “ANTICIPATES,” “EXPECTS “AND THE LIKE OFTEN IDENTIFY SUCH FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS, BUT ARE NOT THE ONLY INDICATION THAT A STATEMENT IS A FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT. SUCH FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS INCLUDE STATEMENTS CONCERNING OUR PLANS AND OBJECTIVES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY, AND STATEMENTS WHICH EXPRESS OR IMPLY THAT SUCH PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS WILL OR MAY PRODUCE REVENUES, INCOME OR PROFITS. NUMEROUS FACTORS AND FUTURE EVENTS COULD CAUSE THE COMPANY TO CHANGE SUCH PLANS AND OBJECTIVES OR FAIL TO SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENT SUCH PLANS OR ACHIEVE SUCH OBJECTIVES, OR CAUSE SUCH PRESENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS TO FAIL TO PRODUCE REVENUES, INCOME OR PROFITS. THEREFORE, THE READER IS ADVISED THAT THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN LIGHT OF THE DISCUSSION OF RISKS AND OTHER FACTORS CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-K AND IN THE COMPANY’S OTHER FILINGS WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. NO STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS A GUARANTEE OR ASSURANCE OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE OR FUTURE RESULTS.

Background

The Company was incorporated in August 21, 2013, to engage in the business of eBook publishing, but its business operations in the area of eBook publishing were nominal. Following a change of control which occurred in February 29, 2016, the Company discontinued its eBook publishing operations and elected to become an investment holding company and to provide management and consulting services to Trendmaker Pte, Ltd, a Singapore entity whose subsidiaries include Phyto Science Sdn Bhd (a Malaysia entity), and Phytoscience Trendmaker Pvt Ltd (an Indian entity). Although the Company identified its intended future business activities, during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, it did not commence active business operations.

Results of Operations

Company management does not believe that a meaningful analysis can be made of the Company’s results of operation for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 as compared to the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018. During both periods, its operations have been nominal and, following a change of control in February 29, 2016, the Company elected to terminate its previous business plan to engage in eBook publishing, and adopt a new business plan relating to acting as an investment holding company and providing management and consulting services. Operating expenses consisting of professional fees and general and administrative expenses, were substantially the same of the two periods ($56,461 for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018, as compared to $64,281 for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019). Revenue for the period ended July 31, 2019 and 2018 were $0 and $0 respectively. The other income is earned from the other service fees.

Going Concern

To date the Company has no operations or revenues and consequently has incurred recurring losses from operations. No revenues are anticipated until we complete the implementing our strategic business plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund our business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance at July 31, 2019 was $0 with $240,142 in outstanding liabilities. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are expected to be approximately $50,000. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our directors, who have informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next six months.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TOTAL ASIA ASSOCIATES PLT (LLP0016837-LCA & AF002128) A Firm registered with US PCAOB and Malaysian MIA   C-3-1, Megan Avenue 1, 189 Off Jalan Tun Razak, 50400 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Tel: (603) 2733 9989

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Trendmaker, Inc. Limited (the ‘Company’) as of July 31, 2019 and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended of July 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of July 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended July 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

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

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

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, for the year ended July 31, 2019 the Company incurred a net loss and has yet to generate revenue. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 7. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JULY 31, 2019 AND 2018 (Consolidated)

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

(A) Organization

Nuts and Bolts International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 21, 2013 to create and publish electronic non-fiction books (“eBooks”) through the internet. The Company was formed to create and distribute high quality, multimedia eBooks for the hobby and do-it-yourself consumer markets. These operations were carried on through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Nuts & Bolts Publishing, LLC. These operations have been discontinued and the Company’s subsidiary has been dissolved.

In connection with the Change of Control, on February 29, 2016, effective April 14, 2016, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation changing the Company’s name from Nuts and Bolts International, Inc. to Trendmaker Inc. Limited.

On February 29, 2016, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with the former director and officer of the Company (the “Seller”), and the current director and officer (the “Purchaser”), under which the Purchaser purchased 5,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $155,000, payable in full to the Seller (a “Change of Control”). The Shares represent all of the Seller’s interest in and to any securities of the Company, and make up 77.67% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The SPA closed and the Change of Control occurred on February 29, 2016. Following the change of control, the Company elected to terminate its previous business plan to engage in eBook publishing, and adopt a new business plan related to acting as an investment holding company and providing management and consulting services.

The Company is now acting as an investment holding company and providing management and consulting services to Trendmaker Pte, Ltd., a Singapore entity.

(B) Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Significant estimates include valuation of in kind contribution of services, valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(C) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018, the Company had no cash and cash equivalents.

(D) Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by FASB ASC No. 260, “Earnings Per Share.” As of July 31, 2019, and July 31, 2018, there were no common share equivalents outstanding.

TRENDMAKER INC. LIMITED

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JULY 31, 2019 AND 2018 (Consolidated)

(E) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, 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. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

(F) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with GAAP. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, and the short-term portion of long-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

We adopted accounting guidance for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities (ASC 820). The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.

(G) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2014-15 on “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) - Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this Update provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In August 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No.2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” defers the effective date ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. All other entities may apply the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities also may apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning one year after the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

TRENDMAKER INC. LIMITED

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JULY 31, 2019 AND 2018 (Consolidated)

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) that clarifies how to apply revenue recognition guidance related to whether an entity is a principal or an agent. ASU 2016-08 clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer and provides additional guidance about how to apply the control principle when services are provided and when goods or services are combined with other goods or services. The effective date for ASU 2016-08 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-08 on its financial statements.

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

NOTE 5 ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED EXPENSES

Accounts payable and accrued expenses consisted of the followings at July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018.

NOTE 6 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As of July 31, 2019, the balance US$337,688 represented an outstanding amount due from Related Party A. Related Party A is having common director with the Company. The amount due is unsecured, interest-free with no fixed repayment term.

NOTE 7 GOING CONCERN

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has working capital of $97,546 and stockholders’ equity of $97,546, used cash in operations of $0 and has a net loss of $64,281 for the year ended July 31, 2019. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC’s rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to chief executive and chief financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, our sole executive officer who is both the CEO and CFO, has identified a material weakness in connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of and for the year ended July 31, 2019, and has thus concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of these objectives. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The identified material weakness and control deficiency primarily related to lack of an adequate number of members of management, and in particular, absence of a Chief Financial Officer with appropriate professional experience with U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations.

We believe that the material weakness and other control deficiencies we have identified are temporary because as funds become available to do so, our management intends to hire management personnel or additional consultants to assist with compliance with the Company’s reporting obligations and, in particular, to assist with maintenance of books and records and preparation of required financial statements. Our management intends to conduct an assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure control and procedures, and internal control over financial reporting in the coming months if we acquire another operating business or assets, and re-consider the need for hiring a consultant.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and related financial information appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The financial statements and notes have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The management of the Company also is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, over time control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

With the participation of the President and Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2019, based upon the framework in Internal Control –Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, and due to the identified material weakness and internal control deficiency as discussed above, and the fact that the Company has failed to stay current in the filing of required periodic reports with the SEC, our management has concluded that, as of July 31, 2019, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Director Independence

The NASDAQ Stock Market has instituted director independence guidelines that have been adopted by the Securities & Exchange Commission. These guidelines provide that a director is deemed “independent” only if the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship with the company which, in the board’s opinion, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. Significant stock ownership will not, by itself, preclude a board finding of independence.

Based upon the guidelines described above, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Lai Teck Peng is not an independent director under these rules.
