Verde Resources, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2017
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Verde Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “VRDR”) was incorporated on April 22, 2010, in the State of Nevada, U.S.A. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Company’s fiscal year end is June 30.
Gold Billion Global Limited (“Gold Billion” or “GBL”) was incorporated in British Virgin Islands on February 7, 2013. GBL was setup by the Board of Directors of Federal Mining Resources Limited (“FMR”). The major operation of GBL is to manage and monitor the mineral exploration and mining projects of FMR.
On July 1, 2013, FMR assigned its rights and obligation on Champmark Sdn Bhd (“CSB”) to GBL. Four of the five members of CSB Board of Directors were appointed by FMR, with two of the GBL Board of Directors currently sitting on the CSB Board. According to ASC 810-05-08 A, CSB is a deemed subsidiary of GBL, where it has controlled the CSB Board of Directors, has assigned rights to receive future benefits and residual value and obligations to absorb loss and finance for CSB by GBL. GBL has the power to direct the activities of CSB that most significantly impact CSB’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of CSB that could potentially be significant to the CSB or the right to receive benefits from CSB that could potentially be significant to CSB. GBL is the primary beneficiary of CSB because it has been assigned with all relevant rights and obligation and can direct the activities of CSB through the common directors and the 85% shareholder, FMR. Under 810-23-42, 43, it is determined that CSB is de-facto agent of GBL and GBL is the de-facto principal of CSB. GBL started to consolidate CSB from July 1, 2013, and the Company consolidated GBL and CSB from October 25, 2013, onwards.
On February 17, 2014, the Company entered into a Supplementary Agreement to the Assignment Agreement and completed an acquisition of GBL pursuant to the Supplementary Agreement. The acquisition was a reverse acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-40 “Reverse Acquisitions”. The legal parent was VRDR which was the accounting acquiree while GBL was the accounting acquirer. There was a 15% non-controlling interest of Champmark SDN BHD (“CSB”) after the acquisition. This transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein GBL with its 85% deemed subsidiary CSB was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.
As a result of the acquisition, the Company holds 100% equity interest in GBL and 85% variable interest in CSB. Our consolidated subsidiaries include GBL being our wholly-owned subsidiary and 85% of CSB being a variable interest entity (VIE) and deemed subsidiary of GBL.
On March 17, 2014, the Company through GBL and its deemed subsidiary CSB entered into a Sub-Contract Agreement with Borneo Oil & Gas Corporation Sdn Bhd (“BOG”) for the engagement of its sub-contractor services to carry out exploration and exploitation works on alluvial and lode gold resources at Site IV-1 of the Merapoh Mine. The Sub-Contract Agreement is for a period of 5 years with a renewal for another 5 years subject to review by both parties. BOG is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Borneo Oil Berhad (BOB) which is listed on the main market of Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange. BOG being a local company in Malaysia provides the Company with the advantage of local knowledge and well-established connection in dealing with the relevant local authorities in our mining operations.
On April 1, 2014, GBL purchased 85% equity interest of CSB, and CSB became indirect subsidiary of the Company.
Effective August 27, 2014, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation were amended to increase the authorized shares of the Company from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 250,000,000 shares of common stock. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. The Form 8K announcing the increase of the authorized shares of the Company was filed with SEC on September 15, 2014.
Effective February 20, 2016, Mr. Wu Ming Ding resigned all of his positions as President and Director of the Company with Mr. Balakrishnan B S Muthu being appointed President to fill the vacancy created. Effective February 20, 2016, Mr. Chen Ching was appointed Director of the Company and the entire Board of Directors now consists of Mr. Balakrishnan B S Muthu and Mr. Chen Ching. The SC 14F1 and Form 8-K announcing the change in officers and directors were filed with SEC on February 10, 2016 and February 22, 2016 respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). These condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in United States dollars ($). Financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These condensed consolidated audited financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading.
Basis of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Verde Resources, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary Gold Billion Global Limited (“GBL”) and the 85% of the deemed subsidiary variable interest of Champmark SDN BHD (“CSB”). All inter-company balances and transactions between the Company and its subsidiary and variable interest entity (VIE) have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company has adopted ASC Topic 810-10-5-8, “Variable Interest Entities”, which requires a variable interest entity or VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns.
Variable Interest Entity
On July 1, 2013, the Company’s subsidiary, GBL entered into a series of agreements (“VIE agreements”) with FMR and details of the VIE agreements are as follows :
1. | Management Agreement, FMR entrusted the management rights of its subsidiary CSB to GBL that include: | |
| i) | management and administrative rights over the day-to-day business affairs of CSB and the mining operation at Site IV-1 of the Merapoh Gold Mine; |
| ii) | final right for the appointment of members to the Board of Directors and the management team of CSB; |
| iii) | act as principal of CSB; |
| iv) | obligation to provide financial support to CSB; |
| v) | option to purchase an equity interest in CSB; |
| vi) | entitlement to future benefits and residual value of CSB; |
| vii) | right to impose no dividend policy; |
| viii) | human resources management. |
2. | Debt Assignment, FMR assigned to GBL the sum of money in the amount of US Dollars One Hundred Nine Thousand Eight Hundred One And Cents Seventy-Two Only (US$ 109,801.72), now due to GBL from CSB under the financing obligation from the FMR to CSB. |
With the above agreements, GBL demonstrates its ability to control CSB as the primary beneficiary and the operating results of the VIE was included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014.
On April 1, 2014, the Board of Director of GBL notified FMR upon the decision to exercise the right of option to purchase 85% equity interest of CSB under Management Agreement Section 3.2.4 dated July 1, 2013 between GBL and FMR. This acquisition was completed on April 1, 2014 with consideration of US$1. GBL then became 85% shareholder of CSB and is required to consolidate CSB as a subsidiary.

Table of Contents |
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 assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission include, where applicable, disclosures of estimates, assumptions, uncertainties and markets that could affect the financial statements and future operations of the Company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value. The Company had $17,151 and $38,616 in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents and related party payables it will likely incur in the near future. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Company’s management plans to assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company operates in the resource exploration industry that is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with operating a resource exploration business, including the potential risk of business failure.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging, ongoing business relation and other factors. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. At and, the Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts, as per management’s judgment based on their best knowledge. As of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, the longest credit term for certain customers are 60 days.
Provision for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables and reviews accounts receivable by amounts due by customers which are past due to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, the Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on past collection experience and ongoing credit risk evaluations. At September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017 there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.
Fair Value
ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures” establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
9 |
Table of Contents |
These tiers include:
· | Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; |
· | Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and |
· | Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, payables, and short term and long term debt. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, and payables approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying value of long term debt approximates the fair value of debt of similar terms and remaining maturities available to the company.
The Company’s non-financial assets are measured on a recurring basis. These non-financial assets are measured for impairment annually on the Company’s measurement date at the reporting unit level using Level 3 inputs. For most assets, ASC 820 requires that the impact of changes resulting from its application be applied prospectively in the year in which the statement is initially applied.
The Company’s non-financial assets measured on a non-recurring basis include the Company’s property, plant and equipment and finite-use intangible assets which are measured for recoverability when indicators for impairment are present. ASC 820 requires companies to disclose assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis in the period in which the re-measurement at fair value is performed.
The Company did not have any convertible bonds as of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollar (“$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in United States dollars. The Company’s functional currency is the Malaysian Ringgit ( “MYR”) which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted.
In accordance with ASC Topic 830 “Translation of Financial Statements” , capital accounts of the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from MYR at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the respective year. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.

Segment Reporting
The Company currently engages in one operation segment: Gold Mining. The expenses incurred were consisting principally of management services. The Company’s major operation is located in Malaysia.
Mineral Acquisition and Exploration Costs
The Company has been primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mining properties. The Company was no longer considered an exploration stage after the reverse take-over with its subsidiary GBL.
Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserves.
Environmental Expenditures
The operations of the Company have been, and may in the future be, affected from time to time in varying degree by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future reclamation and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable. The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.
Environmental expenditures that relate to ongoing environmental and reclamation programs are charged against earnings as incurred or capitalized and amortized depending on their future economic benefits. All of these types of expenditures incurred since inception have been charged against earnings due to the uncertainty of their future recoverability. Estimated future reclamation and site restoration costs, when the ultimate liability is reasonably determinable, are charged against earnings over the estimated remaining life of the related business operation, net of expected recoveries.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with the ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company derives revenues primarily from the sales of gold mineral to registered gold trading companies in Malaysia. The Company generally recognizes its revenues at the time of gold sales and its selling price is determined by the prevailing market value of gold bullion quoted by the leading registered gold trading company in Malaysia. Sales invoice will be duly presented to the trading companies when delivery is completed and revenue is then recognized.
Cost of Revenue
The cost of revenue consists of exploration cost, mine equipment depreciation, production cost, mine site management cost, sub-contractor cost, and royalty and tribute payment which are levied on the gross revenue at the rate of 18% on the invoiced value of gold sales.
Advertising Expenses
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred under ASC Topic 720, “Advertising Costs” . Advertising expenses incurred for the periods ended September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017 were $0.

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, 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 basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any 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.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. As of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business , clarifying the vdefinition of a business. The amendments affect all companies and other reporting organizations that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business.
The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The amendments are intended to help companies and other organizations evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The amendments provide a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. They also provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application, and make the definition of a business more operable.
For public companies, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. For all other companies and organizations, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.
To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.
The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.
The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle should be disclosed upon transition.
A public business entity that is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer should adopt the amendments for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.
A public business entity that is not an SEC filer should adopt the amendments for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.
All other entities, including not-for-profit entities, which adopt the amendments should do so for their annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021.
Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-05, Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets.
A contract may involve the transfer of both nonfinancial assets and financial assets (e.g., cash and receivables). The amendments clarify that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset. The amendments also define the term in substance nonfinancial asset.
The amendments clarify that nonfinancial assets within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 may include nonfinancial assets transferred within a legal entity to a counterparty. For example, a parent may transfer control of nonfinancial assets by transferring ownership interests in a consolidated subsidiary. A contract that includes the transfer of ownership interests in one or more consolidated subsidiaries is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if substantially all of the fair value of the assets that are promised to the counterparty in a contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets.
The amendments clarify that an entity should identify each distinct nonfinancial asset or in substance nonfinancial asset promised to a counterparty and derecognize each asset when a counterparty obtains control of it.
The amendments are effective at the same time Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers is effective. For public entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Business Overview
The Company is a Nevada corporation that conducts business operations in Pahang Malaysia through Champmark Sdn Bhd (“CSB”), a privately limited liability company incorporated in Malaysia which is a deemed subsidiary under the management control of our 100% subsidiary GBL.
On October 25, 2013, we entered into an Assignment Agreement For the Assignment of Management Right in Merapoh Gold Mines in Malaysia (“Assignment Agreement”) with Federal Mining Resources Limited (“FMR”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands.
FMR owns 85% equity interest in CSB, a privately limited liability company incorporated in Malaysia. CSB is the Mining Contractor of the Mining Lease for Site IV-1 at the Merapoh Gold Mine under the Contract for Work with MMC Corporation Berhad, the Permit Holder of the Mining Lease.
Under the terms of the Assignment Agreement, FMR assigned its management rights of CSB’s mining operation in the Mining Lease to the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Gold Billion Global Limited (“GBL”), in exchange for 80,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which constituted 95.26% of our issued and outstanding capital stock as of and immediately after the consummation of the acquisition.
GBL was established on February 7, 2013, by the Board of Directors of FMR to monitor the CSB operation. The acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of GBL was agreed upon on October 18, 2013, and completed on October 25, 2013, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors and the audit of GBL.
On February 17, 2014, we entered into a Supplementary Agreement to the Assignment Agreement and completed a reverse acquisition of GBL pursuant to the Supplementary Agreement. As a result of the acquisition, the Company holds 100% equity interest in GBL and 85% variable interest in CSB. Our consolidated subsidiaries include GBL being our wholly-owned subsidiary and 85% of CSB being a variable interest entity (VIE) and deemed subsidiary of GBL. On April 1, 2014, GBL purchased 85% equity interest of CSB, and CSB became indirect subsidiary of the Company.

Corporate History and Structure
Verde Resources, Inc. was incorporated on April 22, 2010, in the State of Nevada, U.S.A. On October 17, 2013, the following persons were appointed to serve as directors and to assume the responsibilities of officers: Mr. Wu Ming Ding, as President and Director; Mr. Balakrishnan B S Muthu as Treasurer Chief Financial Officer, General Manager and Director; and Mr. Liang Wai Keen as Secretary. Mr. Wu and Mr. Muthu were added to the Board of Directors.
On April 1, 2014, the Board of Directors of Gold Billion Global Limited (“GBL”) notified Federal Mining Resources Limited (“FMR”) upon the decision to exercise the right of option to purchase 85% equity interest of Champmark Sdn Bhd (“CSB”) under Management Agreement Section 3.2.4 dated July 1, 2013, between GBL and FMR. This acquisition was completed on April 1, 2014, with consideration of US$1, and GBL then became 85% shareholder of CSB.
Effective August 27, 2014, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation were amended to increase the authorized shares of the Company from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 250,000,000 shares of common stock.
Effective February 20, 2016, Mr. Wu Ming Ding resigned all of his positions as President and Director of the Company with Mr. Balakrishnan B S Muthu being appointed President to fill the vacancy created. Effective February 20, 2016, Mr. Chen Ching was appointed Director of the Company and the entire Board of Directors now consists of Mr. Balakrishnan B S Muthu and Mr. Chen Ching.
The following diagram illustrates our current corporate structure:
According to ASC 810-05-08 A, CSB is a deemed subsidiary of GBL where GBL has control the Board of Directors of CSB, rights to receive future benefits and residual value, and obligation to absorb loss and finance for CSB. GBL has the power to direct the activities of CSB that most significantly impact CSB’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of CSB that could potentially be significant to the CSB or the right to receive benefits from CSB that could potentially be significant to CSB. GBL is the primary beneficiary of CSB because GBL can direct the activities of CSB through the common directors and 85% shareholder FMR. Under 810-23-42, 43, it is determined that CSB is de-facto agent of the principal GBL and so GBL will consolidate CSB from July 1, 2013.

Contractual Arrangements
Our exploration and mining business is currently provided through contractual arrangements with CSB through our wholly-owned subsidiary GBL.
CSB, the VIE of GBL, sells gold minerals directly to the registered gold trading company in Malaysia. We have been and are expected to continue to be dependent on our VIE to operate our exploration and mining business. GBL has entered into contractual arrangements with its VIE, which enable us to exercise effective control over the VIE, receive substantially all of the economic benefits from the VIE, and have the option to purchase equity interests in the VIE.
On July 1, 2013, the Company’s subsidiary GBL entered into a series of agreements (“VIE agreements”) with FMR and details of the VIE agreements are as follows:
| 1. | Management Agreement, FMR entrusted the management rights of its subsidiary CSB to GBL that include: | |
|
|
|
|
| i) | management and administrative rights over the day-to-day business affairs of CSB and the mining operation at Site IV-1 of the Merapoh Gold Mine; | |
| ii) | final right for the appointment of members to the Board of Directors and the management team of CSB; | |
| iii) | to act as principal of CSB; | |
| iv) | an obligation to provide financial support to CSB; | |
| v) | an option to purchase an equity interest in CSB; | |
| vi) | an entitlement to future benefits and residual value of CSB; | |
| vii) | a right to impose no dividend policy; | |
| viii) | human resources management. | |
| 2. | Debt Assignment, FMR assigned to GBL the sum of money in the amount of US Dollars Three Hundred Nine Thousand Three Hundred Thirty One And Ninety Two cents (US$ 309,331.92), now due to GBL from CSB under the financing obligation from the FMR to CSB. |
With the above agreements, GBL controls CSB as the primary beneficiary and the operating results of the VIE was included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
CSB holds the operating right to Merapoh Gold Mine (the “Mine”) with all regulatory and government operating licenses in Malaysia.
On April 1, 2014, GBL purchased 85% equity interest of CSB, and CSB became indirect subsidiary of the Company.
Stage of Operation
The Company does not own any title and/or concession right in any mines. The Company is undertaking natural mineral resource extraction management services.
According to the United States Industry Guide 7 (a) (4) on mining operations, the Merapoh Gold Mine is currently in the production stage because the mine has produced approximately 19 kilograms gold from July 2016 to June 2017. According to the ASC 930-330-20 Glossary, the production phase is defined as “when saleable minerals are extracted (produced) from an ore body, regardless of the level of production”. However, the production is limited to a small part of the site, and extraction is alluvial gold only. The objective of the Company is preparing to improve the productivity of the mines to ensure that the operation will be carried out effectively and efficiently at minimum cost.

Current Mining Property and Location
Merapoh Gold Mine (the “Mine”)
The Merapoh Gold Mine is located in northern Pahang, with convenient road access through Kelantan directly to mine site and is about 400 kilometers away from Kuala Lumpur. The Mine is located in the middle of Malaysia gold metallogenic belt. The central gold belt is the source of the majority of the gold deposits in the peninsula. It lies between the western and eastern tin belts and extends from Kelantan (Sungai Pergau, Sungai Galas) to Pahang (Merapoh, Kuala Lipis, Raub), Terengganu (Lubuk Mandi), Negri Sembilan and Johor (Gunung Ledang).

Description of the Mining Process
A planned sequence of events is involved in mining a pit:
| · | Identifying the resource |
| · | Creating access to the ore body |
| · | Removing the ore from the ore body |
| · | Refining of the concentrate |
Our in-house exploration team identifies a target and undertakes exploration. Before any hole is drilled or rock mined, much planning goes into making sure the mining sequence runs smoothly and safely as possible. The process of creating access to the possible ore body includes possible ore excavation, possible ore assessment and possible ore segregation.
Process for removing ore concentrates from the ore body
| 1. | The ore body is transported to the treatment plants in vehicles capable of hauling huge, heavy loads. |
| 2. | The ore body is separated into Ore Type 1 Stockpile and Ore Type 2 Stockpile. |
| 3. | The monitor washes finer gold bearing material off larger rocks which is screened on an inclined coarse wire screen. |
| 4. | An excavator is used to turn over the rocks so wash is removed from all sides of the coarse material. |
| 5. | A monitor pushes the rock down the inclined coarse screen where the course is removed and stockpiled at the bottom. |
| 6. | Finer material passes through the mesh screen into the sluice system and runs over the sluice. |
| 7. | The carpets are removed and taken to refining facility for gold recovery. |
| 8. | A suction pipe recovers water of the fine tailings pond for use in the system. |
Refining of the concentrate
| 1. | The carpets holding concentrate from the sluice are brought to a shed in the camp site where the gold refined. |
| 2. | The first stage of the refining is to wash the gold containing concentrate into large bins. This is pumped to a jig and shaking table. |
| 3. | Nuggets are handpicked from the coarse fraction and the fine fraction is amalgamated to remove the gold. After distillation gold from the amalgam and the coarse are melted with flux and the gold is poured into small bars. |

The revenue derived from the sales of gold mineral to customers in Malaysia. The decrease of revenue for the period ended September 30, 2017 was mainly due to a decrease in gold production because of depleting mineral reserves in the mine and gold sales during the period. The decrease of cost of revenue was mainly due to a decrease of gold production during the period and a substantial increase in closing inventories as during the period-end. Operating expenses comprised mainly of salaries, office costs, legal and professional fees and travelling expenses. The decrease in operating expenses for the period was mainly due to the decrease of salaries during the period. Net other income comprise mainly of miscellaneous non-operating expenses, equipment rental income and waiver of consultancy service fee. The increase in net other income for the period was mainly due to the increase of equipment rental income and the waiver of consultancy service fee.
Plan of Operation
Our Industry and Principal Markets
As reported in the GFMS Annual Surveys 2017 released by Thomson Reuters, gold prices are likely to remain volatile in the near future, and the market is not
expected to regain its composure as investors remain averse to risk. The forecast of a $1,259 average per ounce for 2017 is partly predicated on information
contained in this report, but also on the expectation that the Indian market will start to find its feet again, helping to contain price weakness and providing a more stable backdrop for the returning investors. The longer term prognosis is for further price gains even against the headwind of the Federal Reserve raising rates.
In another forecast by Business Monitor International (BMI) in mid-2016, global gold mine output growth will continue to decelerate, as miners focus on cost cutting and divesting from unprofitable assets in a weak price environment. BMI made the forecast for global gold production to increase slightly, from 98.4 million ounces in 2016 to 106 million ounces by 2020, averaging 1.8% growth. BMI also reported that the Malaysia’s mining industry is anticipated to reach US$38.7bn by 2017, growing at an annual average rate of 2.5% from 2011 levels. The bulk of this growth will be led by the country’s nascent gold mining sector, which has attracted a number of foreign investors in recent years. The mineral exploration activities are subject to extensive national and local government regulations in Malaysia, which regulations may be revised or expanded at any time. Generally, compliance with these regulations requires the company to obtain the permits issued by government regulatory agencies. Certain permits require periodic renewal or review of their conditions. Malaysia provides an attractive mining legislative environment for foreign investors, but there is the risk that these laws will change once the country is able to attract enough foreign money.

Subcontractor
In an effort to enhance the efficiency of mine operations at the Merapoh Gold Mine, Champmark Sdn Bhd (“CSB”) entered into an Operation Term Sheet (“OTS”) agreement in July 2013 to outsource the exploitation works of alluvial gold resources at Site IV-1 of the Merapoh Gold Mine to a subcontractor Borneo Oil & Gas Corporation Sdn Bhd (“BOG”).
BOG has the experience and local knowledge in managing the exploitation of alluvial gold at the Merapoh Gold Mine. The Company will provide necessary disclosure when any significant agreements have been made with sub-contractors in the future.
BOG became the Company’s shareholder in January 29, 2014, and was no longer a third party subcontractor.
Expansion Plans
At present, we are well positioned working with our third party subcontractor, who has the experience and local knowledge to manage our exploitation of alluvial gold at the Merapoh Gold Mine. The Company believes that there are excellent growth opportunities for its business outside Malaysia. We are constantly exploring for potential acquisition of mining projects in other parts of the world.
The Company is currently operating the gold mining operation at a small scale and is still at its initial stages to expand the production capacity of the gold mining operation. The Company has purchased a number of units of vehicles such as excavators, wheel loader, mobile mining equipment, motor vehicles and trucks for the mining of alluvial gold at the Mining Area.
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary company Gold Billion Global Ltd (“GBL”) entered into a letter of intent with Xinjiang Changhe Mining Co., Ltd (“XCM”) on September 29, 2014. Under the letter of intent, GBL has offered to acquire ownership in XCM for the Ayigate Gold Project subject to due diligence. The Ayigate gold mine is located within the Tianshan region in Wuqia County, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of the People’s Republic of China. After several discussions, the Company decided not to proceed with the offer to acquire ownership in XCM.
As our business is affected by the fluctuations of gold prices, the Company intends to diversify its product line by acquiring mining projects with potential for different mineral resources other than gold. We continue to hold discussions with other mining companies for potential collaboration to carry out exploration and exploitation works on other mineral resources in Southeast Asia regions.
Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company had incurred net profit from operation of $37,670 which posted a positive impact to the company’s cash flow. The reconciliation on non-cash items such as depreciations provide positive impact on cash.
In the operation analysis, the net cash used in operating activities decreased from $(11,298) to $(1,970). The $37,670 net profit was partially offset by the noncash income such as $16,729 in waiver of consultancy fee less $7,207 in depreciation. In the operating assets and liabilities, the net decrease in current assets, such as accounts receivable from related parties, inventory and deposits and prepayment was $17,101 whereas the net decrease in current liabilities, such as accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advanced from sub-contractor & related parties and taxation payable was $13,017. The final result of the cash flow from operating activities was $(1,970) negative cash flow effect.
In the investing cash flow analysis, there was no change for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
In the financing analysis, there was the repayments of bank loans of $2,710.
The net increase in exchange rate effect of $16,785 provided a negative cash flow effect. The cash and cash equivalents at the end of September 30, 2017, was decreased by $21,465 with $17,151 as a balance.
The cash flow situation will not allow for operations in the coming next 12 months by self-generated cash provided from operating activities. The Company needs to increase cash flow supplies with a long term plan until the Company makes sustainable profits and has a positive cash flow. Otherwise, loans from related parties may be a temporary solution, although we have no written loan agreements. There is no guarantee that we will be able to secure adequate financing. If we fail to secure sufficient funds, our business activities may be curtailed, or we may cease to operate.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2017, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee, (2) lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (3) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (4) management is dominated by three individuals without adequate compensating controls. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive and Financial Officers in connection with the review of our financial statements as of September 30, 2017.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an immediate negative effect on our financial results because of our small size of operation. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements if the Company were growing substantially in the future periods.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
