Zhen Ding Resources Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1.  Description of Business

 

Zhen Ding Resources Inc. (formerly Robotech Inc.) (the “Company”, “Zhen Ding DE”, or “ZDRI”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in September 1996 and began its business activities in the development and marketing of specialized technological equipment. In early 2010, the business direction of our Company was changed to seek opportunities to focus particularly on searching for companies engaged in the mining of gold, silver and copper.

 

The Company indirectly owns 70% of a Chinese Joint Venture entity, Zhen Ding Mining Co. Ltd. (“Zhen Ding JV” or “JXZD”). This indirect ownership is through a 100% ownership of a California company Z&W, Zhen Ding Corporation (“Z&W CA”).

 

Our Company, through Z&W CA, participates in a joint venture with Jing Xian Xinzhou Gold Co., Ltd. (“Xinzhou Gold”), a company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The joint venture company, JXZD, is 70% held by our Company through Z&W CA who has the mineral exploration, mineral mining and gold mining rights to a property located in the southwestern part of Anhui province in China, near the town of Jing Xian. Xinzhou Gold, the other 30% partner of JXZD is the actual named owner of the various licenses used by JXZD and transferred all rights emanating from these licenses as part of the joint venture agreement between Z&W CA and Xinzhou Gold. Our Company’s primary activity, through JXZD, is ore processing and production in China.

 

In 2017, the Company shut down its mineral processing plant in China due to insufficient working capital. The Company had limited operations and plans to resume selling processed ore concentrate as soon as possible to provide Zhen Ding JV the cash flow needed to keep its plant operating and to maintain a viable work force for future expansion.

 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. Such financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for the integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying financial statements.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries Z&W CA and its majority owned subsidiary JXZD. All inter-company transactions and balances were eliminated. The portion of the income applicable to non-controlling interests in subsidiary undertakings is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings (loss) or and financial position.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which 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.

Foreign Currency Adjustments

 

Assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Any translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and have no effect on current earnings. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in current results of operations. During the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had aggregate foreign currency translation gains (loss) of $1,087,137and ($121,778), respectively.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of nine months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Income Taxes

 

An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between income tax and financial reporting and principally relate to recognition of revenue and expenses in different periods for financial and tax accounting purposes and are measured using currently enacted tax rates and laws. In addition, a deferred tax asset can be generated by net operating loss carry forwards. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. The Company has tax losses that may be applied against future taxable income. The potential tax benefit arising from these loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance due to uncertainty of profitable operations in the future.

 

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

 

Management believes that the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting primarily of cash, due to related parties, short term debt and short term debt – related parties, approximated their fair values as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, due to their short-term nature.

 

Non-controlling Interests

 

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are reported as a component of equity, separate from the parent’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the minority interest are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

 

 Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For all periods presented, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

  

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with “Conversion and Other Options” and ASC subtopic 815-40 “Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and, (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted it effective January 1, 2022 and the adoption of the standard does not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements

 

Note 3. Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next twelve months. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had accumulated losses of $21,255,350 since inception and had a working capital deficit of $9,888,834. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

General Overview

 

We are engaged in seeking business partnership opportunities with companies that are in the field of exploration and extraction of precious and/or base metals, primarily in China, which are in need of funding and improved management.  We would provide the necessary management expertise and assist in financing efforts of these mining operations.  In exchange, we would acquire metal ores produced by these mines and process the ores in our ore milling plant and sell the ore concentrates to metal refineries.  Our only operating company is Zhen Ding JV, which engages in the processing of metal ore and the selling of ore concentrates of gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper at purity levels ranging from 65% to 80%.  Zhen Ding JV purchases metal ore in rock form from its joint venture partner, Xinzhou Gold, which has rights to explore and mine ore from a property located in the southwestern part of Anhui province in China.

 

Our Corporate History and Structure

 

Our principal office is located at Suite 111, 3900 Place De Java, Second Floor, Brossard, Quebec, Canada J4Y 9C4.  The offices, located in a suburb of Montreal, are not under written lease but are rented through a verbal agreement, on a month to month basis, from Immeubles Wing Kei Inc. at $500 per month, due and payable at each calendar quarter end. The occupancy began October 15, 2018.

 Table of Contents

 

Our operational offices are located at:  Zhen Ding Mining Co. Ltd., Wuxi County, Town of Langqiao, Jing Xian, Anhui Province, China, Tel: 86-6270-9018.

 

We were incorporated in September 1996 as Robotech Inc., and began our business in the development and marketing of specialized technological equipment. At that time we estimated that we would require approximately $6,000,000 to realize our plans. Through the year of 2003, we had not reached our financing goals and therefore abandoned that particular business plan. Since that time, we have been seeking suitable candidates for acquisition.

 

In the pervious decade there was been a worldwide recovery in the price and interest in precious metals, minerals and industrial commodities. Such interest was fueled to a large degree by the economic awakening of the two most populous nations, China and India, and further bolstered by a sharp decline in the US dollar. A particular beneficiary of this revival was the market prices of gold, silver and copper. Thus, in early 2010, the business direction of our company changed to seek to profit from this revival, and we began to focus our acquisition search in that industry, particularly on companies engaged in the mining of gold, silver and copper.

 

In January 2012, our Board of Directors, with authorization from a majority of our shareholders, made an offer to the shareholders of Zhen Ding Resources Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Zhen Ding NV”), to acquire, at the very least, the majority of their common shares, and, if available, up to 100% ownership.

 

Zhen Ding NV through its wholly owned subsidiary, Z&W Zhen Ding Corporation, a California corporation (“Zhen Ding CA”), has been engaged in a joint venture with Jing Xian Xinzhou Gold Co., Ltd. (“Xinzhou Gold”), a company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The joint venture company, Zhen Ding Mining Co. Ltd. (“Zhen Ding JV”) is 70% held by Zhen Ding NV through Zhen Ding CA.  It is a common practice in China to append the name of the town or city where an enterprise is located to its legally incorporated name. Thus many documents referencing Zhen Ding JV may refer to it as Jing Xian Zhen Ding Mining Co. Ltd. Zhen Ding JV engages in the processing of metal ore and the selling of ore concentrates of gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper at purity levels ranging from 65% to 80%.  Zhen Ding JV purchases metal ore in rock form from Xinzhou Gold.

On March 8, 2012, we changed our name from Robotech, Inc. to Zhen Ding Resources Inc., in anticipation of the acquisition of Zhen Ding NV. Our trading symbol, RBTK, however remained unchanged.

 

During 2012, a total of 50,746,358 shares of the issued and outstanding common stock of Zhen Ding NV were tendered to our company. On August 13, 2013, an additional 13,100,000 shares were tendered to us. Thus, as of August 13, 2013 the shareholders of Zhen Ding NV had tendered 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of Zhen Ding NV to us.

 

On October 23, 2013, we issued 122,440 shares of our common stock, on a one-for-one basis, to the tendering shareholders of Zhen Ding NV making Zhen Ding NV a wholly owned subsidiary of our company.

 

On October 28, 2013, we dissolved Zhen Ding NV by merging it with and into Zhen Ding DE.  As a result, Zhen Ding CA became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zhen Ding DE.  Zhen Ding CA continues to exist as an intermediate holding company with no operations of its own, but which in turn owns our 70% interest in Zhen Ding JV.

Our Current Business

 

Background

 

Presently, we conduct our operations exclusively through Zhen Ding JV, our joint venture company. However, we continue to look for other attractive potential acquisition targets in the mining industry.

 

Our joint venture, Zhen Ding JV, is equipped to process ore mined by our joint venture partner Xinzhou Gold when in operation.  Zhen Ding JV purchases the ore in rock form from Xinzhou Gold and processes the ore into our final product, which is a gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper ore concentrate. We estimate that our processed product is 65% to 80% pure. The product is then sold to refineries which further purify and separate the concentrate.  Zhen Ding JV also arranges all exploration, mining process and operations, and financial and administrative support for Xinzhou Gold’s mine, known as the Wuxi Gold Mine.

 

We purchase all of our raw material from Xinzhou Gold for our ore processing operation and rely solely on Xinzhou Gold for our supply of ores. The veins most recently excavated by Xinzhou Gold in the permitted areas of our mines are very low grade and, as such, the production is minimal. The higher yielding and therefore more profitable veins run outside Xinzhou Gold’s permitted mining area boundaries under its current license.

 

Xinzhou Gold applied for an extension of the permitted mining area, however, the application was rejected by the government in December 2016 due to Xinzhou Gold’s insufficient working capital. Xinzhou Gold intends to reapply for an extension of the permitted mining area when it is able to demonstrate sufficient working capital to drill the extended area. However, if sufficient working capital is unavailable, or if the application be denied on other grounds, we would not be able to secure another source with higher-grade ores for our processing plant, which would severely limit our ability to execute our plan of operation and our potential profitability.  

 

At the beginning of fiscal 2015, we idled our mineral processing plant due to an overall downturn in the demand and market prices for our concentrates. This downturn coincided with an overall economic recession in China and downturn in the global commodities market during fiscal 2015 through 2016.

 

On May 9, 2018, De Gang Wei resigned as Chairman, Chief Financial Officer and Director of the Company and Zhou Zhi Bin resigned as a director of the Company. The resignations did not result from any disagreement with our company regarding our operations, policies, practices or otherwise.

  

Recent Activities

 

Since idling our mineral processing plant, we have actively sought an investment of between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000, which we believe is required to expand Xinzhou Gold’s mining permit, and which would allow us to resume our ore extraction and refinery activities. However, as at the date of this report we have not successfully secured any financing commitment.

  

Due to our continued inability to raise sufficient financing to expand Xinzhou Gold’s mining permit, Xinzhou Gold elected to reapply for a new drilling permit based on a scaled-down drilling plan. The resulting new permit application, which was submitted to the Anhui Province Land & Resources Bureau for approval on March 8, 2017, sought renewed permission to continue drilling in the areas directly adjacent to our concentration plant. That application was subsequently rejected due to environmental concerns regarding wastewater runoff onto nearby agricultural lands. Accordingly, during the last six months of fiscal 2019, the Company was primarily devoted to refining its environmental impact compliance proposal and design in consultation with government officials. A new proposal and design for a tailing pond treatment facility was submitted to the environmental protection authorities on June 30, 2019.

 

 17 
 Table of Contents

 

During the fall of 2019, the Zhen Ding JV received feedback from the Land & Resource Bureau regarding its June 30, 2019 proposal and design submission. The authorities requested certain improvements to the tailing pond and wastewater treatment facility on the proposed drilling site as a condition of granting any new drilling permit. Zhen Ding JV subsequently retained a new environmental expert to rework the tailing pond treatment facility. The new design would employ automated pumping systems to optimize water transfer while lowering both cost and risk. The design affords immediate control of pressure and flowrate, as well as real-time monitoring of pump speed, flowrate, inlet/outlet water pressures, water temperature, engine performance, and engine fuel level. The improved water treatment design report was submitted to the government in December, 2019 and was estimated to cost approximately $1.75 million over two years. The Company was expecting a ruling on the proposal in 2020, however the response was delayed due to COVID-19 containment measures in Anhui province, which resulted in reduced staffing and operations across all levels of the public service. Subsequently, during the second quarter of 2021, we were informed by the Land & Resources Bureau that no further consideration would be given to our proposal or design submission until we provide a cash payment of $500,000 to finance additional research and due diligence.

 

Financing and Restructuring Efforts

 

During fiscal 2019 our management entered into negotiations with various related party lenders regarding a possible restructuring or conversion of related party debt. Effective December 14, 2020, we issued an aggregate of 46,442,550 shares of our common stock to ten lenders at the price of $0.02 per share in consideration for the cancellation of $928,851 of interest bearing debt payable on demand to the lenders in respect of cash advances made by them to the Company.

 

Activities during the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

The three months ended September 30, 2022 saw a progressive decline in global commodities markets, including the market for precious metals. Because of these adverse market conditions, our management has suspended efforts to identify sources of equity financing required to complete permitting and resumption of our mineral extraction and refining operations. Meanwhile, our management has continued to identify and evaluate businesses opportunities and other strategic transactions with a view to diversifying our business and creating shareholder value.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

 

We had a net loss of $143,374 from operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2022, which was a nominal decrease from our net loss of $148,749 from operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2021.  The change in our results over the two periods is a result of nominal decreases in our general and administrative expense and in our interest expense during 2021.  

 

The following table summarizes key items of comparison and their related increase (decrease) for the three month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 compared to the Nine Months Ended September, 2021

 

We did not earn any revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 or September 30, 2021. Our lack of revenue was due to the continued idling of our mineral processing operations and our inability to secure a renewed permit or financing to resume our mining activities.

The increase was a result of an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities owed to related parties and non-related parties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 we had no sales and did not purchase any raw materials.

Financing Activities

 

Cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $40,103, which was a 34% decrease from the $61,121 in cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in cash provided was a result of an increase interest accrual on related party loans during the fiscal 2022.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Our operating plan for the 12 months beginning October 1, 2022 is as follows:

  

Our operating plan for the balance of fiscal 2022 is to seek an investment of approximately US$3,350,000, which we believe is required to restart our mineral processing plant in China and extend Xinzhou Gold’s mining permit, which would allow us to resume our ore extraction and refinery activities, although we have not secured any financing commitment thus far.

  

The funds raised would be used to:

 

1.upgrade tailings pond and water treatment facility;

2.extend and expand permitted mining area of Xinzhou Gold to access higher concentrate ore veins;

3.resume ore exploration and extraction activities;

4.re-start the mill;

5.re-test the mill;

6.develop expansion plans for our plant capacity;

7.drill additional holes near the concentration plant; and

8.undertake at least three deep drill holes in the permitted area to re-commence greater milling operations as soon as possible.

 

This will involve re-testing the plant equipment and re-hiring all personnel that was laid off as a result of the mining halt. We will reactively seek partnerships with mining enterprises primarily active in the gold, silver and/or copper fields and subject to the general parameters described earlier to increase our supply of raw material. In addition, we will look for a partner in the natural resources field in order to enhance our future capability to access necessary funding and seek other businesses opportunities and other strategic transactions with a view toward diversifying our business and attracting new investment.

 

In order to execute our business plan over the next twelve months we expect to expend funds as follows:

 

Estimated Net Expenditures During the Next Twelve Months

 

   $ 
Restart mill and mining related operations   3,000,000 
General, Administrative Expenses   100,000 
Consulting & Permit Fees   150,000 
Misc   100,000 
      
      
Total   3,350,000 

 

In light of our nominal cash resources, we expect that we will be required to raise approximately $3,500,000 in order to execute our proposed business plan during fiscal 2022.  In the event that we are unable to raise sufficient funds to carry out our planned investment in drilling equipment and our planned exploration program, we anticipate that we will require a minimum of $350,000 to maintain our current business operations without engaging in any significant exploration activities or investment. We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed.

 

 20 
 Table of Contents

 

The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, a successful program of exploration and/or development, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

 

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. As noted herein, we are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned, and we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due. In such event, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations. We are not aware of any known trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

 

Future Financings

 

We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned business activities.

  

We presently do not have any arrangements for additional financing for the expansion of our exploration operations, and no potential lines of credit or sources of financing are currently available for the purpose of proceeding with our plan of operations.

We have no 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, and capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which 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.

 

Foreign Currency Adjustments

 

Assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Any translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and have no effect on current earnings. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in current results of operations. During the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had aggregate foreign currency translation gains (loss) of $1,087,137and ($121,778), respectively.

 

Non-controlling Interests

 

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are reported as a component of equity, separate from the Company’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the minority interest are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when products are shipped, title and risk of loss is passed to the customers and collection is reasonably assured. Payments received prior to the satisfaction of above criteria are deferred.

 

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

 

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

  

As of the end of the quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our management concluded that our internal controls are not effective due to us having material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process due to lack of a functioning audit committee, a majority of independent members and a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal control and procedures.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the period covered by this report there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, executive officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
