NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Syndicore Asia Limited – Video Syndication and E-Commerce Company

Syndicore Asia Limited (“SAL”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company formed under the laws of Hong Kong. SAL is an online media company that syndicates video in a cloud-based, multimedia conduit serving a growing global community of content creators, news outlets and leading brands. SAL will be a provider of syndicated video media to news organizations in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, SAL plans to aggregate content from the Asia Pacific region and provide it to news organizations around the world.

On December 15, 2013, SAL entered into a Distribution Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with SendtoNews Video, Inc., a British Columbia company (“STN”). Under the terms of the Distribution Agreement, SAL was granted an exclusive license to use, modify, edit, reproduce, distribute, feed, store, communicate, display, and transmit STN’s content in the Asia Pacific Territory (the “Content”). STN is the content provider for various worldwide sporting events. STN would also provide on-going assistance to SAL with regard to technical, administrative, and service-orientated issues relating to the delivery, utilization, transmission, storage and maintenance of the Content.

On January 20, 2014, SAL entered into a revised Distribution Agreement whereby STN has agreed to provide SAL transferrable rights for the use, reproduction, storage, display, and transmission of certain content subject to pre-approval in writing from STN. In addition, the revised Distribution Agreement includes changes to the revenue sharing terms, and adds a share of advertising revenue directly resulting from aggregated content by SAL within the territory.

On September 26, 2019 Syndicore Asia Limited (“SAL), a corporation incorporated and existing under the laws of Hong Kong, and a wholly owned subsidiary of ZZLL Information Technology, Inc. (traded in the OTC Market under the symbol “ZZLL”) entered into an Agreement with Pretech International Co., Limited (“Pretech”), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong.  Under the terms of the Agreement, Pretech has agreed to act as SAL’s sales agent in order to make sales through the use of SAL’s software application (“App”) Bibishengjia.  Pretech has agreed to pay SAL $1 million for the use of Bibishengjia, and SAL has agreed to pay Pretech 5% of all sales made in Peoples Republic of China and Hong Kong through the use of the Bibishengjia App.  The term of the Agreement is for 24 months from the date the Agreement is entered into, extendable for another 24 months, unless a party decides to cancel at the end of the 24-month period. In addition, Technical, System, Security and Maintenance support shall last separately for 60 months total, subject to renegotiation.

ZZLL is developer and marketer of software and E-Commerce platforms in the Asia Pacific Region. In addition, they provide consumer-to-consumer, business-to-consumer and business-to-business-sales services via its web portals and the Bibishengjia APP.

Pretech is a software, hardware and digital company that also specializes in the development and manufacturing of consumer electronics. Pretech operates in both Hong Kong and the PRC, with a sister company located in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China.

SAL will strive to become a leading digital content provider for the Asia Pacific region, capitalizing on an explosively growing market with local, regional and national content that was previously unavailable in the area. This is a new and exciting market, and offers exciting opportunities for expansion and growth. There is no assurance, however, that SAL will be successful in its efforts.

On the other side of the distribution chain, we plan to create SAL’s own proprietary news partnerships to provide guaranteed content distribution in return for a corresponding share of advertising revenues to a news industry looking to supplement their rapidly declining traditional ad revenue with viable “digital-age” revenue.

Management believes that SAL’s customers will be willing to pay a “premium CPM” because:

 

- The ability to sponsor exclusive, highly sought-after short form video content

- Deep, creative advertising opportunities – other than rudimentary logo/banner overlays and pre-roll

- Premium positioning

- Unprecedented transparency and near real-time performance metrics to evaluate their investment

- Securing sponsorships with related enterprises

- Stronger control over distribution to help target intended audience.

- Other segments of the market are also benefiting. The high and rapidly increasing popularity of social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter are expected to revolutionize the marketing strategies employed in areas such as the pharmaceuticals industry. There, in addition to marketing, an increasing number of pharma players have also begun leveraging these platforms to enhance consumer relationships and improve brand management, based on the market intelligence generated by monitoring and analyzing user-generated content. The ability to incorporate consumer feedback to develop new products is also expected to initiate a strategic shift in the operational model of pharma companies. Social media involvements are expected to increase product sales, especially those of OTC drugs, in the long term. Novartis for instance has already begun using YouTube and Facebook to enhance the sales for its OTC drugs such as Comtrex, Orofar and Bufferin. Johnson &Johnson, one of the first pharma giants to enter the social media space, has used online platforms for crisis management – when the company recalled its products (Tylenol and Benadryl tablets) it used social websites to apologize to consumers for irregularities in its manufacturing plant found during FDA inspection.

SAL’s exclusive distribution agreement with SendtoNews Video Incorporated (“STN”) for the Asia Pacific region includes major markets such as Japan, China and India. SAL now has distribution rights of online content for some of the world’s leading sports organizations with the same highlights, player interviews and other fan-interest content. SAL, being the exclusive provider in the Asia Pacific region for highly sought after content, offers deep market exposure with unprecedented efficiency and metrics-driven transparency. On the other side of the distribution chain, we will create SAL’s own proprietary news partnerships to provide guaranteed content distribution in return for a corresponding share of advertising revenues to a News industry looking to supplement their rapidly declining traditional ad revenue with viable “digital-age” revenue.

Syndicore Asia Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.SAL is also in the startup phase and is in the process of entering into arrangements and agreements to implement the current business plan.

Syndicore Asia Limited will be a provider of syndicated video media to news organizations in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, Syndicore Asia Limited plans to aggregate content from the Asia Pacific region and provide it to news organizations around the world.

On September 26, 2019, Syndicore Asia Limited (“SAL) entered into an Agreement with Pretech International Co., Limited (“Pretech”), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong.  Under the terms of the Agreement, Pretech has agreed to act as SAL’s sales agent in order to make sales through the use of SAL’s software application (“App”) Bibishengjia.  Pretech has agreed to pay SAL $1 million for the use of Bibishengjia, and SAL has agreed to pay Pretech 5% of all sales made in Peoples Republic of China and Hong Kong through the use of the Bibishengjia App. The term of the Agreement is for 24 months from the date the Agreement is entered into, extendable for another 24 months, unless a party decides to cancel at the end of the 24-month period. In addition, Technical, System, Security and Maintenance support shall last separately for 60 months total, subject to renegotiation.

The financial statements at March 31, 2020, atDecember 31, 2019, and for the period from April 15, 2011 (date of inception), to March 31, 2020, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles in the United States applicable to a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company incurred an accumulated deficits of $2,291,501 as of March 31, 2020($2,419,950 as of December 31, 2019), generated a net income of $128,449 for the three months period ended March 31, 2020 (a net profit of $169,178 for comparable period ended March 31, 2019). As of March 31, 2020, the Company has its current liabilities exceed its current assets resulting in negative working capital of $664,833 ($778,955 as of December 31, 2019). In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts and realization of the portion of current liabilities into revenue shown in the accompanying balance sheets are dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn are dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional financing and to succeed in its future operations. The Company may need additional cash resources to operate during the upcoming 12 months, and the continuation of the Company may be dependent upon the continuing financial support of investors, directors and/or shareholders of the Company. However, there is no assurance that equity or debt offerings will be successful in raising sufficient funds to assure the eventual profitability of the Company. These accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management plans to support the Company in operation and to maintain its business strategy is to raise funds through public and private offerings and to rely on officers and directors to perform essential functions with minimal compensation. If we do not raise all of the money we need from a public offering, we will have to find alternative sources, such as a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers, directors or others.

Moreover, management has actively taken steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which believes that will allow the Company to continue its operations throughout this fiscal year.

NOTE 4- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES–CONTINUED

Use of estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, deferred income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. In respect of accounts receivable, the Group extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without requiring collateral or other security. In order to minimize the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsibility for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. Further, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Group consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less. The Group currently maintains bank accounts in HK and PRC only.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables.Bad debts are written off when identified.The Group extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible.The Group does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable. The Group has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis credit evaluations are preferred on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. The Group had not experienced any bad debts during the three months period ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 respectively.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use.Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including replacement of minor items, are charged to expense; major additions to physical properties are capitalized.

Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates:

 

 

Furniture and fixtures

20% - 50%

 

Office equipment

20%

Plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated.

Revenue recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to update the financial reporting requirements for revenue recognition. Topic 606 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. It supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The guidance is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract.

In preparation for adoption of the standard, we have completed our impact assessment of implementing this guidance. We have evaluated each of the five steps in Topic 606, which are as follows: 1) identify the contract with the customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

Revenue was not affected materially in any period due to the adoption of ASC Topic 606 because: (1) we identified similar performance obligations under ASC Topic 606 as compared with deliverables and separate units of account previously identified; our performance obligation is to deliver the spirits and wine; (2) we determined the transaction price to be consistent; and (3) we recorded revenue at the same point in time, upon delivery under both ASC Topic 605 and ASC Topic 606, as applicable under the terms of the contract with the customer. Additionally, the accounting for fulfillment costs or costs incurred to obtain a contract were not affected materially in any period due to the adoption of Topic 606.

There are also certain considerations related to accounting policies, business processes and internal control over financial reporting that are associated with implementing Topic 606. We have evaluated our policies, processes, and control framework for revenue recognition, and identified and implemented the changes needed in response to the new guidance.

Lastly, disclosure requirements under the new guidance in Topic 606 have been significantly expanded in comparison to the disclosure requirements under the current guidance, including disclosures related to disaggregation of revenue into appropriate categories, performance obligations, the judgments made in revenue recognition determinations, adjustments to revenue which relate to activities from previous quarters or years, any significant reversals of revenue, and costs to obtain or fulfill contracts.

We conclude that the adoption of the standard has no material impact on our revenue recognition policy.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales includes the cost of direct labor, merchandise, materials and installation charges on the service being provided.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses include store-related expense, other than store occupancy costs, as well as advertising, depreciation and amortization, and certain expenses associated with operating the Company’s corporate headquarters.

Retirement Benefit Plans

Full time employees of the Company in the PRC participate in a government mandated defined contribution plan, pursuant to which certain pension benefits, medical care, employee housing fund and other welfare benefits are provided to employees. Chinese labor regulations require the Company to make contributions to the government for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ salaries. The Company accounts the mandated defined contribution plan under the vested benefit obligations approach based on the guidance of ASC 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits.

The total amounts for such employee benefits which were expensed were $3,028 and $4,606for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Product warranty

The company is the legal obligor for the warranties of the services provided to customers. Since our inception to present, we have not incurred any direct warranty expenses and accordingly, the accrual and associated expenses recognized in the financial statements has been recorded as zero.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability 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 bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which thosetemporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. 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.

The FASB issued Accounting Standard Codification Topic 740 (ASC 740) “Income Taxes”. ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This requires that an entity recognized in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The adoption of ASC 740 did not have any impact on the Group’s results of operations or financial condition for the three months period ended March 31, 2020. As of the date of the adoption of ASC 740, the Group has no material unrecognized tax benefit which would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. The Group has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Comprehensive income

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

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. Substantially all of the Company’s leases are operating leases. A significant portion of the Company’s operating lease portfolio mainly includerenting premises. The remaining lease terms on the majority of the Company’s leases is between 2 to 5 years, some of which include options to extend the lease terms. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets are presented within long term assets, the current portion of operating lease liabilities is presented within current liabilities and the non-current portion of operating lease liabilities are presented within long term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make the lease payments arising during the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. The Company’s lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. As most of the Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Foreign currency translation

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Group which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States Dollars (“US$”). The functional currencies of the Company’s subsidiary operating business unit based in Hong Kong and PRC are the Hong Kong Dollar (“HK$”) and Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”) respectively. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of operations. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the consolidated statements of operations.

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translated the assets and liabilities into US $ using the rate of exchange prevailing at the applicable balance sheet date and the consolidated statements of operationsand cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded in shareholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The rate used in translation of Hong Kong dollars to US$ is a ratio of US$1.00=HK$7.80, a fixed exchange rate maintained between Hong Kong and United States derived from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority pegging HK$ and US$ monetary policy.

Basic and diluted earnings per share

The Group computes earnings per share (“EPS’) in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 260 (“ASC 260”) “Earnings Per Share”, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g. convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

The calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 are based on the estimate fair value of the Group’s common stock during such periods applied to options using the treasury stock method to determine if they are dilutive.

Effective on October 5, 2017, the Company executed a reverse stock split pursuant to which fifty (50) shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding, was reclassified as and changed, into one (1) share of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

Adoption of new accounting standards

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with a term of more than one year. Accounting by lessors remains similar to pre-existing U.S. GAAP. Subsequent accounting standards updates have been issued, which amend and/or clarify the application of ASU 2016-02. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2019. See Note 17, operating leases arrangement for further details.

 

The adoption of the standard in the consolidated financial statements for the financial period ended March 31, 2020 will have no significant impact to the provision for income taxes and will have no impact to the net cash used in, or generated by, operating, investing, or financing activities in the Group’s consolidated statements of cash flows.  

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), amending existing guidance on the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope. The guidance introduces an expected loss model for estimating credit losses, replacing the incurred loss model. The new guidance also changes the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, requiring the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses (and subsequent recoveries). The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework. The purpose of the update is to improve the effectiveness of the fair value measurement disclosures that allow for clear communication of information that is most important to the users of financial statements. There were certain required disclosures that have been removed or modified. In addition, the update added the following disclosures: (i) changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The standard will become effective for the Company for its periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-13 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards groups with future effective dates are either not applicable or not significant to the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 10-FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Group adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), related to the Group’s financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 — observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3 — unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

SC 820 also provides guidance for determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that asset is not active, and for determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate when a transaction is not orderly.

The effective date for certain aspects of ASC 820 was deferred and currently being evaluated by the Group. Areas impacted by the deferral relate to non-financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, but are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The effects of these remaining aspects of ASC 820 are to be applied by the Group to fair value measurements prospectively beginning November 1, 2010. The adoption of the remaining aspects of ASC 820 is not expected to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

The following table details the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities within the three levels of the fair value hierarchy at March 31 2020, and December 31, 2019:

Subsequent Event

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The Company is monitoring this closely, and although operations have not been materially affected by the coronavirus outbreak to date, the ultimate severity of the outbreak is uncertain. Operations of the Company are ongoing as the delivery of electricity to customers is considered an essential business. Further the uncertain nature of its spread globally may impact our business operations resulting from quarantines of employees, customers, and third-party service providers. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate the impact of this event on its operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

As at March 31, 2020, our material off-balance sheet arrangements are operating lease obligations. We excluded these items from the balance sheet in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Operating lease commitments consist principally of leases for our office. These leases frequently include options which permit us to extend the terms beyond the initial fixed lease term. With respect to most of those leases, we intend to renegotiate those leases as they expire.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

-28-

 

Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, determined that our internal controls over disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and were inadequate to insure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the commission rules and forms.

Management Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 using the May 2013 updated criteria established in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020, we identified material weakness as follows: (1) lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function, and (2) lack of control procedures that include multiple levels of review.  Until we are able to remedy these material weaknesses, we determined that our controls were not effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in our internal control or other factors over financial reporting that occurred during the threemonths ended March 31, 2020 or to the date we completed our evaluation, that would materially affect, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls and procedures. Therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
