INTRODUCTORY COMMENT

 

We are a Nevada holding company with operations conducted through our wholly owned Samoan subsidiary. OEC operates primarily in Hong Kong but has administrative offices based in Taiwan and China that provide services to clients located in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China. Our investors hold shares of common stock in Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc., the Nevada holding company. This structure presents unique risks as our investors may never directly hold equity interests in our Taiwan subsidiary and will be dependent upon contributions from our subsidiary to finance our cash flow needs. Our ability to obtain contributions from our subsidiary is significantly affected by regulations promulgated by Taiwan and currency control regulations promulgated by the authorities of China and Hong Kong. Any change in the interpretation of existing rules and regulations or the promulgation of new rules and regulations may materially affect our operations and or the value of our securities, including causing the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless. For a detailed description of the risks facing the Company associated with our structure, please refer to “Risk Factors – Risk Relating to Doing Business in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China.” set forth herein. 

 

Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. and our Samoan subsidiary are not required to obtain permission from the Samoan authorities including the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Securities and Futures Bureau, to operate or to issue securities to foreign investors. However, we may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the Samoan government in this regard including the risk that we inadvertently conclude that such approvals are not required, that applicable laws, regulations or interpretations change such that we are required to obtain approvals in the future, or that the Samoan government could disallow our holding company structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations, including our ability to continue our existing holding company structure, carry on our current business, accept foreign investments, and offer or continue to offer securities to our investors. These adverse actions could cause the value of our common stock to significantly decline or become worthless. We may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the regulatory agencies of Taiwan, Hong Kong or China, as applicable, if we fail to comply with such rules and regulations, which would likely adversely affect the ability of the Company’s securities to continue to trade on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, which would likely cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

 

There may be prominent risks associated with our operations and activities in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China. For example, as a U.S.-listed public company conducting business or otherwise engaging in activities in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China, we may face heightened scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, which could result in a material change in our operations and the value of our common stock. It could also significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Additionally, changes in Chinese internal regulatory mandates, such as the M&A rules, Anti-Monopoly Law, and Data Security Law, may impact OEC’s ability to conduct business in Hong Kong and China. Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. The business of our subsidiary is not subject to cybersecurity review with the Cyberspace Administration of China, or CAC, given that: (i) we do not have one million individual online users of our products and services in Hong Kong or China; (ii) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations.  In addition, we are not subject to merger control review by China’s anti-monopoly enforcement agency due to the level of our revenues which provided from us and audited by our auditor and the fact that we currently do not expect to propose or implement any acquisition of control of, or decisive influence over, any company with revenues within China of more than Renminbi (“RMB”) 400 million. Currently, these statements and regulatory actions have had no impact on our daily business operations, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. However, since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list our securities on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. For a detailed description of the risks facing the Company and associated with our operations in Hong Kong, please refer to “Risk Factors – Risk Factors Relating to Doing Business in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China.” set forth herein. 

 

 

 

 ii 

 

 

The recent joint statement by the SEC and PCAOB, and the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (HFCAA) all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. Trading in our securities may be prohibited under the HFCAA if the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or investigate completely our auditor, and that as a result, an exchange may determine to delist our securities. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act which would reduce the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCAA from three years to two thus reducing the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or being delisted. On December 2, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules to implement the HFCAA. Pursuant to the HFCAA, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) issued its report notifying the Commission that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely accounting firms headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong due to positions taken by authorities in mainland China and Hong Kong. Our auditor is based in Nigeria and is subject to PCAOB inspection. It is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. Furthermore, due to the recent developments in connection with the implementation of the HFCAA, we cannot assure you whether the SEC or other regulatory authorities would apply additional and more stringent criteria to us after considering the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, or sufficiency of resources, geographic reach or experience as it relates to the audit of our financial statements. The requirement in the HFCAA and the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Act that the PCAOB be permitted to inspect the issuer’s public accounting firm within two or three years, may result in the delisting of our securities from applicable trading markets in the U.S, in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our accounting firm at such future time. Please see “Risk Factors - The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act requires the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to be permitted to inspect the issuer's public accounting firm within three years. This three-year period will be shortened to two years if the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act is enacted. There are uncertainties under the PRC Securities Law relating to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC. If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, they may suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and delist our securities from applicable trading market within the US.” set forth herein.

 

In addition to the foregoing risks, we face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties arising from doing business in Hong Kong as summarized below and in “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China” set forth herein. 

 

  Adverse changes in economic and political policies of the PRC government could have a material and adverse effect on overall economic growth in China and Hong Kong, which could materially and adversely affect our business. Please see “Risk Factors - We face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we may be able to conduct in Hong Kong and China and the profitability of such business.” and “Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political and economic policies of the PRC government and PRC laws and regulations could have a significant impact upon the business that we may be able to conduct in the PRC and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.” set forth herein.
     
  We are a holding company with operations conducted through our wholly owned Samoan subsidiary. This structure presents unique risks as our investors may never directly hold equity interests in our Samoan subsidiary and will be dependent upon contributions from our subsidiary to finance our cash flow needs. Any limitation on the ability of our subsidiary to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct business. We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future; you should not buy our stock if you expect dividends. Please see ”Risk Factors - Because our holding company structure creates restrictions on the payment of dividends, our ability to pay dividends is limited.

 

 

 

 

 iii 

 

 

  In light of China’s extension of its authority into Hong Kong, the Chinese government can change Hong Kong’s rules and regulations at any time with little to no advance notice, and can intervene and influence our operations and business activities in Hong Kong. There is a risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities. Please see “Risk Factors - We face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we may be able to conduct in the Hong Kong and China and the profitability of such business.” and “Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political and economic policies of the PRC government and PRC laws and regulations could have a significant impact upon the business that we may be able to conduct in Hong Kong and China and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.” set forth herein.
     
  Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively and affect the value of your investment.
     
  We may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection. We may be liable for improper use or appropriation of personal information provided by our customers. Please see “Risk Factors - The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities in Hong Kong and China. We are currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S exchanges. However, to the extent that the Chinese government exerts more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers over time and if we establish PRC subsidiaries to conduct business in Hong Kong or the PRC and such PRC subsidiaries or the holding company were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange and the value of our common stock may significantly decline or become worthless, which would materially affect the interest of the investors.” set forth herein.
     
  The recent joint statement by the SEC and PCAOB, and the HFCAA all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. Trading in our securities may be prohibited under the HFCAA if the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or investigate completely our auditor, and that as a result an exchange may determine to delist our securities.

If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, they may suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and delist our securities from applicable trading market within the US.” set forth herein.
     
  We are organized under the laws of the State of Nevada as a holding company that conducts its business through its Samoan subsidiary. This may have an adverse impact on the ability of U.S. investors to enforce a judgment obtained in U.S. Courts against these entities, bring actions in Samoa against us or our management or to effect service of process on the officers and directors managing the foreign subsidiary. Please see “Risk Factors - It may be difficult for stockholders to enforce any judgment obtained in the United States against us, which may limit the remedies otherwise available to our stockholders.” set forth herein.

Transfers of Cash to and from Our Subsidiaries

 

Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. is a Nevada holding company with no operations of its own. We conduct our operations in Hong Kong primarily through our Samoan subsidiary.

We may rely on dividends to be paid by our Samoan subsidiary to fund our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders, to service any debt we may incur and to pay our operating expenses. In order for us to pay dividends to our shareholders, we will rely on payments made from our Samoan subsidiary to Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. To date, our subsidiary has not made any transfers, dividends or distributions to Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. and Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. has not made any transfers, dividends or distributions to our subsidiaries or to U.S. investors.

Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. (Nevada corporation)

 

Subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws, our board of directors may authorize and declare a dividend to shareholders at such time and of such an amount as they think fit if they are satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that immediately following the dividend the value of our assets will exceed our liabilities and we will be able to pay our debts as they become due. There is no further Nevada statutory restriction on the amount of funds which may be distributed by us by dividend.  Accordingly, Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. is permitted under the Nevada laws to provide funding to our subsidiary through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds, subject to satisfaction of applicable government registration, approval and filing requirements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that are not historical facts, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-K including, without limitation, statements in the “Market Overview” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the Company’s market projections, financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, events or developments which the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof); expansion and growth of the Company's business and operations; and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking terminology, such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” or similar terms.

Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors that could adversely affect actual results and performance include, but are not limited to, the Company's limited operating history, potential fluctuations in quarterly operating results and expenses, government regulation, technological change and competition.

 

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations.

Corporate History

 

Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) was incorporated on February 7, 2005, under the name Gemwood Productions, for the purpose of marketing and selling day spa services to tourists at resort destinations throughout Mexico. On November 2, 2006, we changed our name to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. in connection with the acquisition of Kreido Laboratories, Inc., a California corporation (“Kreido Labs”), and the disposition of the Gemwood Leasco, Inc. subsidiary, through which entity the tourist business had been carried out. Kreido Labs was founded to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite materials for electronic applications, and developed technology to improve the speed, completeness and efficiency of certain chemical reactions, including esterifications and transesterifications, in the pharmaceutical and special chemical industries.  In the first quarter of 2006, Kreido Labs elected to focus exclusively on the biodiesel industry. This business was not successful, and we sold the technology and related assets to an unrelated party on March 5, 2009. After that disposition, we sought unsuccessfully for another acquisition until the present time. In November of 2019, the Company discontinued operations of its subsidiary, Kreido Labs. On April 19, 2022, the Company changed its name to Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc.

 

Our registration statement on Form SB-2, file number 333-140718, became effective on June 28, 2007.  Subsequent to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, we continued to file annual and quarterly reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a voluntary basis through the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  On February 16, 2009, we elected to terminate our registration and our election to file periodic reports. On March 2, 2018, we filed a registration statement on Form 10, and the registration statement became effective on May 8, 2018.

 

On November 10, 2017, the Company issued 142,924,167 shares of common stock to Reed Petersen, its then officer and director in consideration of cash of $21,434 paid by him to satisfy accounts payable of the Company, and in conversion of $150,075 in accounts payable which he had acquired from the owners of that debt.

Solar Energy

 

The global current solar photovoltaic promotion policy prioritizes the promotion of land diversification, combining the existing land use with solar photovoltaic installations. Among them, "fishery and electricity symbiosis" focuses on farming, supplemented by photovoltaics. The purpose is to combine aquaculture fishery with green energy power generation. economic model.

 

The power system needs to invest in changes to make global energy sustainable and mitigate climate change. In the next ten years, countries and regions are bound to take actions to promote investment in renewable energy and accelerate the utilization of renewable energy in the power system. The market for fixed energy storage opportunities have arisen as a result.

PRC Regulations on Tax

 

Enterprise Income Tax

 

The EIT Law was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on March 16, 2007 and became effective on January 1, 2008, and was later amended on February 24, 2017. The Implementation Rules of the EIT Law (the “Implementation Rules”) were promulgated by the State Council on December 6, 2007 and became effective on January 1, 2008. According to the EIT Law and the Implementation Rules, enterprises are divided into resident enterprises and non-resident enterprises. Resident enterprises shall pay enterprise income tax on their incomes obtained in and outside the PRC at the rate of 25%. Non-resident enterprises setting up institutions in the PRC shall pay enterprise income tax on the incomes obtained by such institutions in and outside the PRC at the rate of 25%. Non-resident enterprises with no institutions in the PRC, and non-resident enterprises whose incomes having no substantial connection with their institutions in the PRC, shall pay enterprise income tax on their incomes obtained in the PRC at a reduced rate of 10%.

 

The Arrangement between the PRC and Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income (the “Arrangement”) was promulgated by the State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”) on August 21, 2006 and came into effect on December 8, 2006. According to the Arrangement, a company incorporated in Hong Kong will be subject to withholding tax at the lower rate of 5% on dividends it receives from a company incorporated in the PRC if it holds a 25% interest or more in the PRC company. The Notice on the Understanding and Identification of the Beneficial Owners in the Tax Treaty (the “Notice”) was promulgated by SAT and became effective on October 27, 2009. According to the Notice, a beneficial ownership analysis will be used based on a substance-over-form principle to determine whether or not to grant tax treaty benefits.

 

In April 2009, the Ministry of Finance, or MOF, and SAT jointly issued the Notice on Issues Concerning Process of Enterprise Income Tax in Enterprise Restructuring Business, or Circular 59. In December 2009, SAT issued the Notice on Strengthening Administration of Enterprise Income Tax for Share Transfers by Non-PRC Resident Enterprises, or Circular 698. Both Circular 59 and Circular 698 became effective retroactively as of January 2008. In February 2011, SAT issued the Notice on Several Issues Regarding the Income Tax of Non-PRC Resident Enterprises, or SAT Circular 24, effective April 2011. By promulgating and implementing these circulars, the PRC tax authorities have enhanced their scrutiny over the direct or indirect transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise by a non-resident enterprise.

 

Under Circular 698, where a non-resident enterprise conducts an “indirect transfer” by transferring the equity interests of a PRC “resident enterprise” indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise, being the transferor, may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax, if the indirect transfer is considered to be an abusive use of company structure without reasonable commercial purposes. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of up to 10%. Circular 698 also provides that, where a non-PRC resident enterprise transfers its equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise to its related parties at a price lower than the fair market value, the relevant tax authority has the power to make a reasonable adjustment to the taxable income of the transaction.

 

 

 

 15 

 

 

In February 2015, the SAT issued Circular 7 to replace the rules relating to indirect transfers in Circular 698. Circular 7 has introduced a new tax regime that is significantly different from that under Circular 698. Circular 7 extends its tax jurisdiction to not only indirect transfers set forth under Circular 698 but also transactions involving transfer of other taxable assets, through the offshore transfer of a foreign intermediate holding company. In addition, Circular 7 provides clearer criteria than Circular 698 on how to assess reasonable commercial purposes and has introduced safe harbors for internal group restructurings and the purchase and sale of equity through a public securities market. Circular 7 also brings challenges to both the foreign transferor and transferee (or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer) of the taxable assets. Where a non-resident enterprise conducts an “indirect transfer” by transferring the taxable assets indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, the non-resident enterprise being the transferor, or the transferee, or the PRC entity which directly owned the taxable assets may report to the relevant tax authority such indirect transfer. Using a “substance over form” principle, the PRC tax authority may disregard the existence of the overseas holding company if it lacks a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of reducing, avoiding or deferring PRC tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax, and the transferee or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer is obligated to withhold the applicable taxes, currently at a rate of 10% for the transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise.

 

On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued a Notice Concerning Withholding Income Tax of Non-Resident Enterprise, or SAT Notice No. 37, which abolishes Circular 698 and certain provisions of Circular 7. SAT Notice No. 37 reduces the burden of the withholding obligator, such as revocation of contract filing requirements and tax liquidation procedures, strengthens the cooperation of tax authorities in different places, and clarifies the calculation of tax payable and mechanism of foreign exchange.

 

Value-added Tax

 

Pursuant to the Provisional Regulations on Value-added Tax of the PRC, or the VAT Regulations, which were promulgated by the State Council on December 13, 1993, took effect on January 1, 1994, and were amended on November 10, 2008, February 6, 2016, and November 19, 2017, respectively, and the Rules for the Implementation of the Provisional Regulations on Value-added Tax of the PRC, which were promulgated by the MOF on December 25, 1993, and were amended on December 15, 2008, and October 28, 2011, respectively, entities and individuals that sell goods or labor services of processing, repair or replacement, sell services, intangible assets, or immovables, or import goods within the territory of the People’s Republic of China are taxpayers of value-added tax. The VAT rate is 17% for taxpayers selling goods, labor services, or tangible movable property leasing services or importing goods, except otherwise specified; 11% for taxpayers selling services of transportation, postal, basic telecommunications, construction and lease of immovable, selling immovable, transferring land use rights, selling and importing other specified goods including fertilizers; 6% for taxpayers selling services or intangible assets.

 

According to the Notice on the Adjustment to the Value-added Tax Rates issued by the SAT and the MOF on April 4, 2018, where taxpayers make VAT taxable sales or import goods, the applicable tax rates shall be adjusted from 17% to 16% and from 11% to 10%, respectively. Subsequently, the Notice on Policies for Deepening Reform of Value-added Tax was issued by the SAT, the MOF and the General Administration of Customs on March 30, 2019 and took effective on April 1, 2019, which further adjusted the applicable tax rate for taxpayers making VAT taxable sales or importing goods. The applicable tax rates shall be adjusted from 16% to 13% and from 10% to 9%, respectively.

 

Dividend Withholding Tax

 

The EIT Law provides that since January 1, 2008, an income tax rate of 10% will normally be applicable to dividends declared to non-PRC resident investors that do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, or that have such establishment or place of business but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, to the extent such dividends are derived from sources within the PRC.

PRC Laws and Regulations on Employment and Social Welfare

 

Labor Law of the PRC

 

Pursuant to the Labor Law of the PRC, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the NPC on July 5, 1994 with an effective date of January 1, 1995 and was last amended on August 27, 2009 and the Labor Contract Law of the PRC, which was promulgated on June 29, 2007, became effective on January 1, 2008 and was last amended on December 28, 2012, with the amendments coming into effect on July 1, 2013, enterprises and institutions shall ensure the safety and hygiene of a workplace, strictly comply with applicable rules and standards on workplace safety and hygiene in China, and educate employees on such rules and standards. Furthermore, employers and employees shall enter into written employment contracts to establish their employment relationships. Employers are required to inform their employees about their job responsibilities, working conditions, occupational hazards, remuneration and other matters with which the employees may be concerned. Employers shall pay remuneration to employees on time and in full accordance with the commitments set forth in their employment contracts and with the relevant PRC laws and regulations. Our Samoan subsidiary currently does not comply with PRC laws and regulations, but complies with Hong Kong laws and regulations.

 

Social Insurance and Housing Fund

 

Pursuant to the Social Insurance Law of the PRC, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the NPC on October 28, 2010 and became effective on July 1, 2011, employers in the PRC shall provide their employees with welfare schemes covering basic pension insurance, basic medical insurance, unemployment insurance, maternity insurance, and occupational injury insurance. Our Hong Kong subsidiary has not deposited the social insurance fees in full for all the employees in compliance with the relevant regulations. We may be ordered by the social security premium collection agency to make or supplement contributions within a stipulated period, and shall be subject to a late payment fine computed from the due date at the rate of 0.05% per day; where payment is not made within the stipulated period, the relevant administrative authorities shall impose a fine ranging from one to three times the amount of the amount in arrears. We entrust another company (YK&E) controlled by Cheng-Hsing, HSU to deposited employees’ public funds and social insurance on their behalf.

 

In accordance with the Regulations on Management of Housing Provident Fund, which were promulgated by the State Council on April 3, 1999 and last amended on March 24, 2002, employers must register at the designated administrative centers and open bank accounts for depositing employees’ housing funds. Employers and employees are also required to pay and deposit housing funds, with an amount no less than 5% of the monthly average salary of the employee in the preceding year in full and on time. OEC has not registered at the designated administrative centers nor opened bank accounts for depositing employees’ housing funds. It also has not deposited employees’ housing funds. OEC may be ordered by the housing provident fund management center to complete the registration formalities, open bank accounts, make the payment and deposit within a prescribed time limit if it becomes subject to PRC laws. Failing to register or open bank accounts at the expiration of the time limit could result in fines of not less than RMB10,000 nor more than RMB50,000. And an application may be made to a people’s court for compulsory enforcement if payment and deposit has not been made after the expiration of the time limit.

 

PRC Regulations Relating to Foreign Exchange

 

General Administration of Foreign Exchange

 

The principal regulation governing foreign currency exchange in the PRC is the Administrative Regulations of the PRC on Foreign Exchange (the “Foreign Exchange Regulations”), which were promulgated on January 29, 1996, became effective on April 1, 1996 and were last amended on August 5, 2008. Under these rules, RMB is generally freely convertible for payments of current account items, such as trade- and service-related foreign exchange transactions and dividend payments, but not freely convertible for capital account items, such as capital transfer, direct investment, investment in securities, derivative products or loans unless prior approval by competent authorities for the administration of foreign exchange is obtained. Under the Foreign Exchange Regulations, foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC may purchase foreign exchange without the approval of SAFE to pay dividends by providing certain evidentiary documents, including board resolutions, tax certificates, or for trade and services related foreign exchange transactions, by providing commercial documents evidencing such transactions.

Circular No. 37 and Circular No. 13

 

Circular 37 was released by SAFE on July 4, 2014 and abolished Circular 75 which had been in effect since November 1, 2005. Pursuant to Circular 37, a PRC resident should apply to SAFE for foreign exchange registration of overseas investments before it makes any capital contribution to a special purpose vehicle, or SPV, using his or her legitimate domestic or offshore assets or interests. SPVs are offshore enterprises directly established or indirectly controlled by domestic residents for the purpose of investment and financing by utilizing domestic or offshore assets or interests they legally hold. Following any significant change in a registered offshore SPV, such as capital increase, reduction, equity transfer or swap, consolidation or division involving domestic resident individuals, the domestic individuals shall amend the registration with SAFE. Where an SPV intends to repatriate funds raised after completion of offshore financing to the PRC, it shall comply with relevant PRC regulations on foreign investment and foreign debt management. A foreign-invested enterprise established through return investment shall complete relevant foreign exchange registration formalities in accordance with the prevailing foreign exchange administration regulations on foreign direct investment and truthfully disclose information on the actual controller of its shareholders.

 

If any shareholder who is a PRC resident (as determined by the Circular No. 37) holds any interest in an offshore SPV and fails to fulfil the required foreign exchange registration with the local SAFE branches, the PRC subsidiaries of that offshore SPV may be prohibited from distributing their profits and dividends to their offshore parent company or from carrying out other subsequent cross-border foreign exchange activities. The offshore SPV may also be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital to its PRC subsidiaries. Where a domestic resident fails to complete relevant foreign exchange registration as required, fails to truthfully disclose information on the actual controller of the enterprise involved in the return investment or otherwise makes false statements, the foreign exchange control authority may order them to take remedial actions, issue a warning, and impose a fine of less than RMB 300,000 on an institution or less than RMB 50,000 on an individual.

 

Circular 13 was issued by SAFE on February 13, 2015, and became effective on June 1, 2015. Pursuant to Circular 13, a domestic resident who makes a capital contribution to an SPV using his or her legitimate domestic or offshore assets or interests is no longer required to apply to SAFE for foreign exchange registration of his or her overseas investments. Instead, he or she shall register with a bank in the place where the assets or interests of the domestic enterprise in which he or she has interests are located if the domestic resident individually seeks to make a capital contribution to the SPV using his or her legitimate domestic assets or interests; or he or she shall register with a local bank at his or her permanent residence if the domestic resident individually seeks to make a capital contribution to the SPV using his or her legitimate offshore assets or interests.

 

We cannot assure that our PRC beneficial shareholders have completed registrations in accordance with Circular 37.

 

Circular 19 and Circular 16

 

Circular 19 was promulgated by SAFE on March 30, 2015, and became effective on June 1, 2015. According to Circular 19, the foreign exchange capital in the capital account of foreign-invested enterprises, meaning the monetary contribution confirmed by the foreign exchange authorities or the monetary contribution registered for account entry through banks, shall be granted the benefits of Discretional Foreign Exchange Settlement (“Discretional Foreign Exchange Settlement”). With Discretional Foreign Exchange Settlement, foreign capital in the capital account of a foreign-invested enterprise for which the rights and interests of monetary contribution have been confirmed by the local foreign exchange bureau, or for which book-entry registration of monetary contribution has been completed by the bank, can be settled at the bank based on the actual operational needs of the foreign-invested enterprise. The allowed Discretional Foreign Exchange Settlement percentage of the foreign capital of a foreign-invested enterprise has been temporarily set to be 100%. The Renminbi converted from the foreign capital will be kept in a designated account and if a foreign-invested enterprise needs to make any further payment from such account, it will still need to provide supporting documents and to complete the review process with its bank.

 

 

 

 

 18 

 

 

Furthermore, Circular 19 stipulates that foreign-invested enterprises shall make bona fide use of their capital for their own needs within their business scopes. The capital of a foreign-invested enterprise and the Renminbi it obtained from foreign exchange settlement shall not be used for the following purposes:

 

  · directly or indirectly used for expenses beyond its business scope or prohibited by relevant laws or regulations;

 

  · directly or indirectly used for investment in securities unless otherwise provided by relevant laws or regulations;

 

  · directly or indirectly used for entrusted loan in Renminbi (unless within its permitted scope of business), repayment of inter-company loans (including advances by a third party) or repayment of bank loans in Renminbi that have been sub-lent to a third party; or

 

  · directly or indirectly used for expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use (except for foreign-invested real estate enterprises).

 

Circular 16 was issued by SAFE on June 9, 2016. Pursuant to Circular 16, enterprises registered in the PRC may also convert their foreign debts from foreign currency to RMB on a self-discretionary basis. Circular 16 provides an integrated standard for conversion of foreign exchange capital items (including but not limited to foreign currency capital and foreign debts) on a self-discretionary basis applicable to all enterprises registered in the PRC. Circular 16 reiterates the principle that an enterprise’s Renminbi capital converted from foreign currency-denominated capital may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope or purposes prohibited by PRC laws or regulations, and such converted Renminbi capital shall not be provided as loans to non-affiliated entities.

 

PRC subsidiaries' distributions to their offshore parents are required to comply with the requirements as described above.

 

PRC Share Option Rules

 

Under the Administration Measures on Individual Foreign Exchange Control issued by the PBOC on December 25, 2006, all foreign exchange matters involved in employee share ownership plans and share option plans in which PRC citizens participate require approval from SAFE or its authorized branch. Pursuant to SAFE Circular 37, PRC residents who participate in share incentive plans in overseas non-publicly-listed companies may submit applications to SAFE or its local branches for the foreign exchange registration with respect to offshore special purpose companies. In addition, under the Notices on Issues concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Share Incentive Plans of Overseas Publicly-Listed Companies, or the Share Option Rules, issued by SAFE on February 15, 2012, PRC residents who are granted shares or share options by companies listed on overseas stock exchanges under share incentive plans are required to (i) register with SAFE or its local branches, (ii) retain a qualified PRC agent, which may be a PRC subsidiary of the overseas listed company or another qualified institution selected by the PRC subsidiary, to conduct the SAFE registration and other procedures with respect to the share incentive plans on behalf of the participants, and (iii) retain an overseas institution to handle matters in connection with their exercise of share options, purchase and sale of shares or interests and funds transfers.

 

PRC Regulation of Dividend Distributions

 

The principal laws, rules and regulations governing dividend distributions by foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC are the Company Law of the PRC, as amended, the Wholly Foreign-owned Enterprise Law and its implementation regulations, the Chinese-foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Law and its implementation regulations, and the Chinese-foreign Equity Joint Venture Law and its implementation regulations. Under these laws, rules and regulations, foreign-invested enterprises may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profit, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Both PRC domestic companies and wholly-foreign owned PRC enterprises are required to set aside a general reserve of at least 10% of their after-tax profit, until the cumulative amount of such reserve reaches 50% of their registered capital. A PRC company is not permitted to distribute any profits until any losses from prior fiscal years have been offset. Profits retained from prior fiscal years may be distributed together with distributable profits from the current fiscal year.

INSURANCE.

 

We maintain certain insurance in accordance customary industry practices in Hong Kong. Insurance will be bought on individual pieces that are valued at US$ 2 million and above, based on the valuation provided by our 3rd party appraisers.

 

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Our corporate and executive office is located at 77, Sec 2, Guanxin Rd, Guanmiao District., Tainan City 71825, Taiwan, telephone number +886-6-5950559. In addition to the Taiwan administrative office, OEC currently has 2 offices located in China and 1 office in Hong Kong.

 

NEAR-TERM REQUIREMENTS FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL

 

We believe that we will require approximately $800,000 over the next 18 months to implement our business plan. For the immediate future, we intend to finance our business expansion efforts through loans and investments from existing shareholders, financial institutions and investors.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus before making an investment decision. Our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of the following risks. The value of our securities could decline as a result of any of these risks. You could lose all or part of your investment in our securities. Some of the statements in “Risk Factors” are forward looking statements.

 

Risks Related to Doing Business in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China

 

We face the risk that the policies of China towards Taiwan could have a significant impact on our business in Taiwan.

 

Taiwan’s economy is highly dependent upon the demand from China and Hong Kong. Taiwan is facing increasingly tense geopolitical relationships with China. If tensions between the two nations increase, China may implement policies and actions including economic sanctions and possible military action against Taiwan. These policies and actions may materially and adversely affect our ability to conduct business in Taiwan and or the economy of Taiwan which may in turn adversely affect our results of operation and financial condition of our business.

 

We face the risk that changes in the policies of the PRC government could have a significant impact upon the business we may be able to conduct in Taiwan, Hong Kong and the PRC and the profitability of such business.

 

We have conducted and expect to continue to conduct our operations and generate revenue in Taiwan, Hong Kong, S.A.R. and China Accordingly, economic, political and legal developments in the PRC will significantly affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Policies of the PRC government can have significant effects on economic and geopolitical conditions in Hong Kong and Taiwan. While we believe that the PRC will continue to strengthen its economic and trading relationships with foreign countries and that business development in the PRC will continue to follow market forces, we cannot assure you that this will be the case. Further, we cannot assure you that tensions between the PRC government and Taiwan will alleviate. Our interests may be adversely affected by changes in policies by the PRC government, including:

 

  changes in laws, regulations or their interpretation especially with respect to Hong Kong and Taiwan;
  confiscatory taxation;
  restrictions on currency conversion, imports or sources of supplies, or ability to continue as a for-profit enterprise;
  expropriation or nationalization of private enterprises;
  Military action against Taiwan; and
  the allocation of resources.

  

 

 

 20 

 

 

Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political and economic policies of the PRC government and PRC laws and regulations could have a significant impact upon the business that we may be able to conduct in Taiwan Hong Kong and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.

 

Our business operations may be adversely affected by the current and future political environment in the PRC. The Chinese government exerts substantial influence and control over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities. Our ability to operate in Hong Kong may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations. Under the current government leadership, the government of the PRC has been pursuing reform policies which have adversely affected China-based operating companies whose securities are listed in the United States, with significant policies changes being made from time to time without notice. These policies may be extended to apply to companies that operate in Hong Kong.

 

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business, or the enforcement and performance of our contractual arrangements with borrowers in the event of the imposition of statutory liens, death, bankruptcy or criminal proceedings. Only after 1979 did the Chinese government begin to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws that regulate economic affairs in general, deal with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade, as well as encourage foreign investment in China. Although the influence of the law has been increasing, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. Also, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published cases and their lack of force as precedents, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve significant uncertainties. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. In addition, there have been constant changes and amendments of laws and regulations over the past 30 years in order to keep up with the rapidly changing society and economy in China. Because government agencies and courts provide interpretations of laws and regulations and decide contractual disputes and issues, their inexperience in adjudicating new business and new polices or regulations in certain less developed areas causes uncertainty and may affect our business. Consequently, we cannot predict the future direction of Chinese legislative activities with respect to either businesses with foreign investment or the effectiveness on enforcement of laws and regulations in China. The uncertainties, including new laws and regulations and changes of existing laws, as well as judicial interpretation by inexperienced officials in the agencies and courts in certain areas, may cause possible problems to foreign investors.

 

Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than two decades, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in the PRC through the allocation of resources, controlling payments of foreign currency, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries in different ways. We cannot assure you that the PRC government will continue to pursue policies favoring a market oriented economy or that existing policies will not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption, or other circumstances affecting political, economic and social life in the PRC.

 

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities. We are currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges. However, to the extent that the Chinese government exerts more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers over time and if our PRC subsidiaries or the holding company were required to obtain approval in the future and were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchange and the value of our common stock may significantly decline or become worthless, which would materially affect the interest of the investors.

 

The Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in Hong Kong may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

For example, the Chinese cybersecurity regulator announced on July 2 that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the company’s app be removed from smartphone app stores.

 

As such, the Company’s business segments may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate. The Company could be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. The Company’s operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry. Given that the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, it could result in a material change in our operation and the value of our common stock. Given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas, any such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

 

Recently, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Severe and Lawful Crackdown on Illegal Securities Activities, which were available to the public on July 6, 2021. These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies. These opinions proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems, to deal with the risks and incidents facing China-based overseas-listed companies and the demand for cybersecurity and data privacy protection. Moreover, the State Internet Information Office issued the Measures of Cybersecurity Review (Revised Draft for Comments, not yet effective) on July 10, 2021, which require operators with personal information of more than 1 million users who want to list abroad to file a cybersecurity review with the Office of Cybersecurity Review. The aforementioned policies and any related implementation rules to be enacted may subject us to additional compliance requirement in the future. While we believe that our operations are not affected by this, as these opinions were recently issued, official guidance and interpretation of the opinions remain unclear in several respects at this time. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will remain fully compliant with all new regulatory requirements of these opinions or any future implementation rules on a timely basis, or at all.

 

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act requires the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to be permitted to inspect the issuer's public accounting firm within three years. This three-year period will be shortened to two years if the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act is enacted. There are uncertainties under the PRC Securities Law relating to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC. If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, they may suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and delist our securities from applicable trading market within the US.

 

The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act was signed into law on December 18, 2020, and requires Auditors of publicly traded companies to submit to regular inspections every three years to assess such auditors’ compliance with applicable professional standards. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act which, if passed by the U.S. House of Representatives and signed into law, would reduce the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCA Act from three years to two. On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted rules to create a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction. On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in a foreign jurisdiction. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in China and in Hong Kong because of positions taken by PRC and Hong Kong authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB has made such designations as mandated under the HFCA Act. Pursuant to each annual determination by the PCAOB, the SEC will, on an annual basis, identify issuers that have used non-inspected audit firms and thus are at risk of such suspensions in the future.

Our Auditor is based in Nigeria and is subject to PCAOB inspection. It is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021. However, in the event the Malaysian authorities subsequently take a position disallowing the PCAOB to inspect our auditor, then we would need to change our auditor. Furthermore, due to the recent developments in connection with the implementation of the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, we cannot assure you whether the SEC or other regulatory authorities would apply additional and more stringent criteria to us after considering the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, or sufficiency of resources, geographic reach or experience as it relates to the audit of our financial statements. The requirement in the HFCA Act that the PCAOB be permitted to inspect the issuer’s public accounting firm within two or three years, may result in the delisting of our securities from applicable trading markets in the U.S, in the future if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our accounting firm at such future time.

 

According to Article 177 of the Securities Law of the PRC (“Article 177”), overseas securities regulatory authorities are prohibited from engaging in activities pertaining to investigations or evidence collection directly conducted within the territories of the PRC, and Chinese entities or individuals are further prohibited from providing documents and information in connection with securities business activities to any organizations and/or persons abroad without the prior consent of the securities regulatory authority of the State Council and the competent departments of the State Council. As of the date of this prospectus, we are not aware of any implementing rules or regulations which have been published regarding application of Article 177.

 

We believe Article 177 is only applicable where the activities of overseas authorities constitute a direct investigation or evidence collection by such authorities within the territory of the PRC. In the event that the U.S. securities regulatory agencies carry out an investigation on us such as an enforcement action by the Department of Justice, the SEC or other authorities, such agencies’ activities will constitute conducting an investigation or collecting evidence directly within the territory of the PRC and accordingly fall within the scope of Article 177. In that case, the U.S. securities regulatory agencies may have to consider establishing cross-border cooperation with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC by way of judicial assistance, diplomatic channels or establishing a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC. However, there is no assurance that the U.S. securities regulatory agencies will succeed in establishing such cross-border cooperation in this particular case and/or establish such cooperation in a timely manner.

 

Furthermore, as Article 177 is a recently promulgated provision, it remains unclear as to how it will be interpreted, implemented or applied by the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission or other relevant government authorities. As such, there are uncertainties as to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC. The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act requires the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) be permitted to inspect the issuer's public accounting firm within three years. This three year period will be shortened to two years if the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act is enacted. If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, there exists a risk that they may determine to suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and may also delist our securities from applicable trading market within the US.

 

We are also subject to other risks and uncertainties that affect many other businesses which are unpredictable and in certain instances are outside of our control, including:

 

  increasing costs, the volatility of costs and funding requirements and other legal mandates for employee benefits, especially pension and healthcare benefits;
  the increasing costs of compliance with federal, state and foreign governmental agency mandates (including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act) and defending against inappropriate or unjustified enforcement or other actions by such agencies;
  the impact of any international conflicts on the U.S. and global economies in general, the transportation industry or us in particular, and what effects these events will have on our costs or the demand for our services;
  any impacts on our business resulting from new domestic or international government laws and regulation;
  market acceptance of our new service and growth initiatives;
  the impact of technology developments on our operations and on demand for our services;

 

 

 

 23 

 

 

  governmental underinvestment in transportation infrastructure, which could increase our costs and adversely impact our service levels due to traffic congestion or sub-optimal routing of our vehicles;
  widespread outbreak of an illness or any other communicable disease, or any other public health crisis;
  availability of financing on terms acceptable to our ability to maintain our current credit ratings, especially given the capital intensity of our operations;
  the impact of intellectual property fraud and copyright infringement of the arts and collectibles;
  the loss caused by the damage or the theft of the arts and collectibles during the process of transportation, exhibition, storage and custody;
  the impact of cyberattacks and security breaches on our platform, our crypto wallets or our third-party partners;
  the impact on our business due to the system failure of our platform or our third-party partners;
  our ability to attract, maintain, and grow our collector base and engage our collectors;
  pricing for our products and services;
  our ability to diversify and grow our services revenue;
  macroeconomic conditions;
  adverse legal proceedings or regulatory enforcement actions, judgments, settlements, or other legal proceeding and enforcement-related costs;
  our ability to attract and retain talent; and
  our ability to compete with our competitors.

 

If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, our business and competitive position would be harmed.

 

We may rely on trade secrets, including unpatented know-how, technology and other proprietary information, to maintain our competitive position. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. We limit disclosure of such trade secrets where possible but we also seek to protect these trade secrets, in part, by entering into non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements with parties who do have access to them, such as our employees, contract manufacturers, consultants, advisors and other third parties. Despite these efforts, any of these parties may breach the agreements and may unintentionally or wilfully disclose our proprietary information, including our trade secrets, and we may not be able to obtain adequate remedies for such breaches. Enforcing a claim that a party illegally disclosed or misappropriated a trade secret is difficult, expensive and time-consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, some courts inside and outside the United States are less willing or unwilling to protect trade secrets. Moreover, if any of our trade secrets were to be lawfully obtained or independently developed by a competitor, we would have no right to prevent them, or those to whom they communicate it, from using that technology or information to compete with us. If any of our trade secrets were to be disclosed to or independently developed by a competitor, our competitive position would be harmed.

 

While we are not aware of any data breach in the past, future cyberattacks, computer viruses or any failure to adequately maintain security and prevent unauthorized access to our information technology system or data could result in a disruption of our business operations and materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition and operating results.

 

The protection of our customers’, business partners’, our and employees’ data is critically important to us. Our customers, business partners, and employees expect we will adequately safeguard and protect their sensitive personal and business information. We have become increasingly dependent upon automated information technology processes. Improper activities by third parties, exploitation of encryption technology, data-hacking tools and discoveries and other events or developments may result in a future compromise or breach of our networks, payment terminals or other settlement systems. In particular, the techniques used by criminals to obtain unauthorized access to sensitive data change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target; accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventative measures. There can be no assurance that we will not suffer a criminal cyber-attack in the future, that unauthorized parties will not gain access to personal or business information or sensitive data, or that any such incident will be discovered in a timely manner.

We also face indirect technology, cybersecurity and operational risks relating to the third parties whom we work with to facilitate our business activities, including, among others, third-party online service providers who manage accounts for our customers and external cloud service provider. As a result of increasing consolidation and interdependence of technology systems, a technology failure, cyber-attack or other information or security breach that significantly compromises the systems of one entity could have a material impact on its counterparties. Any cyber-attack, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins or similar disruptions of such third-party service providers could adversely affect our operations and could result in misappropriation of funds of our customers.

 

Security breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity. If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in our technology infrastructure are exposed and exploited, our relationships with customers and cooperation partners could be severely damaged, we could incur significant liability and our business and operations could be adversely affected.

 

Risks Related to Our Finances and Capital Requirements

 

We will need additional funding and may be unable to raise capital when needed, which would force us to delay any business expansions or acquisitions.

 

Our business plan contemplates the expansion of our operations through organic means and through acquisitions or investments in additional complementary businesses, products and technologies. While we currently have no commitments or agreements relating to any of these types of transactions, we do not generate sufficient revenue from operations to finance expansion or acquisition needs. We expect to finance such future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements, as well as through interest income earned on cash and investment balances. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our development programs or our commercialization efforts.

 

Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish proprietary rights.

 

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, grants and license and development agreements in connection with any collaborations. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.

 

If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Risks Relating to Securities Markets and Investment in Our Stock

 

There is not now and there may not ever be an active market for our Common Stock. There are restrictions on the transferability of these securities.

 

There currently is no market for our Common Stock and, except as otherwise described herein, we have no plans to file any registration statement or otherwise attempt to create a market for the shares. Even if an active market develops for the shares, Rule 144, which provides for an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act under certain conditions, requires, among other conditions, a holding period prior to the resale (in limited amounts) of securities acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the Securities Act. There can be no assurance that we will fulfil any reporting requirements in the future under the Exchange Act or disseminate to the public any current financial or other information concerning us, as is required by Rule 144 as part of the conditions of its availability.

 

Our common stock is subject to the "penny stock" rules of the sec and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

 

Under U.S. federal securities legislation, our common stock will constitute "penny stock". Penny stock is any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require that a broker or dealer approve a potential investor's account for transactions in penny stocks, and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve an investor's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person, and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination. Brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Our insiders beneficially own a significant portion of our stock, and accordingly, may have control over stockholder matters, our business and management.

 

As of the date of this prospectus, our executive officers and directors collectively beneficially own 14,561,143 shares of our common stock, or approximately 67.04% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, our management team will have significant influence to:

 

  Elect or defeat the election of our directors;
  Amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;
  effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and
  affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote.

 

Moreover, because of the significant ownership position held by our management team, new investors may not be able to effect a change in our business or management, and therefore, shareholders would have no recourse as a result of decisions made by management. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our management team, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Our management team’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which and conditions under which you can sell the shares offered by this registration statement.

 

Secondary trading in common stock sold in this offering will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted thus causing you to realize a loss on your investment.

 

The Company does not intend to seek registration or qualification of its shares of common stock the subject of this offering in any State or territory of the United States. Aside from a "secondary trading" exemption, other exemptions under state law and the laws of US territories may be available to purchasers of the shares of common stock sold in this offering,

 

Anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of Nevada state law hinder a potential takeover of our company. Though not now, in the future we may become subject to Nevada's control share law. A corporation is subject to Nevada's control share law if it has more than 200 stockholders, at least 100 of whom are stockholders of record and residents of Nevada, and it does business in Nevada or through an affiliated corporation. The law focuses on the acquisition of a "controlling interest" which means the ownership of outstanding voting shares sufficient, but for the control share law, to enable the acquiring person to exercise the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors:

 

(i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (ii) one-third or more but less than a majority, or (iii) a majority or more. The ability to exercise such voting power may be direct or indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.

 

The effect of the control share law is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with it, obtains only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders of the corporation, approved at a special or annual meeting of stockholders. The control share law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once by the other stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to strip voting rights from the control shares of an acquiring person once those rights have been approved. If the stockholders do not grant voting rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring person, those shares do not become permanent non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell its shares to others. If the buyers of those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, their shares do not become governed by the control share law.

 

If control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control shares with a majority or more of the voting power, any stockholder of record, other than an acquiring person, who has not voted in favor of approval of voting rights is entitled to demand fair value for such stockholder's shares.

 

In addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law which prohibits certain business combinations between Nevada corporations and "interested stockholders" for three years after the "interested stockholder" first becomes an "interested stockholder," unless the corporation's board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Nevada law, an "interested stockholder" is any person who is (i) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (ii) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term "business combination" is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation's assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.

  

The effect of Nevada's business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of our company from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our board of directors.

Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. Stockholders may never be able to sell shares when desired. Before you invest in our securities, you should be aware that there are various risks. You should consider carefully these risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this annual report before you decide to purchase our securities. If any of the following risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

 

Our stock may be subject to substantial price and volume fluctuations due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control and may prevent our stockholders from reselling our Common Stock at a profit. The market prices for securities of logistics companies may be volatile and may fluctuate substantially due to many factors, including:

 

  market conditions in the logistics sectors or the economy as a whole;
  price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market;
  announcements of the introduction of new products and services by us or our competitors;
  actual fluctuations in our quarterly operating results, and concerns by investors that such fluctuations may occur in the future;
  deviations in our operating results from the estimates of securities analysts or other analyst comments;
  additions or departures of key personnel;
  legislation, including measures affecting e-commerce or infrastructure development; and
  developments concerning current or future strategic collaborations; and

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

 

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy

 

We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information that is also appropriate for a business at our stage of development.

 

Our cybersecurity risk management program is aligned to the Company's business strategy. It shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply to the other areas of enterprise risk, including legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk. Key elements of our cybersecurity risk management program include:

 

  · risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise information technology environment;
  · a security officer responsible for managing our cybersecurity risk assessment processes and our response to cybersecurity incidents;
  · the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security procedures;
  · when appropriate, training and awareness programs for team members to drive adoption and awareness of cybersecurity processes and procedures;
  · a cybersecurity incident response plan that includes procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents; and
  · when appropriate, a third-party risk management process for service providers, suppliers, and vendors.

 

 In fiscal year 2023, we did not identify any cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. However, we face potential cybersecurity threats that, if realized, would materially affect us. These threats include but are not limited to ransomware and malware attacks, and compromised business email and other social engineering threats. Our suppliers, customers, contractors and business partners also face similar cybersecurity risks, which could have an adverse impact on our business. Additional information on cybersecurity risks we face is discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors - While we are not aware of any data breach in the past, future cyberattacks, computer viruses or any failure to adequately maintain security and prevent unauthorized access to our information technology system or data could result in a disruption of our business operations and materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition and operating results.”

 

Cybersecurity Governance

 

Our sole director and officer is responsible for developing cybersecurity programs, including as may be required by applicable law or regulation. He addresses cybersecurity as part of our overall enterprise risk management program and to the extent cybersecurity matters are addressed in regular business updates. He is informed regarding the monitoring, prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which we or our subsidiaries are a party or to which any of our or their property is subject, nor are there any such proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities. None of our directors, officers, affiliates or any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of our common stock, or any associate of any of the foregoing, is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

 

Background and Overview

 

Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) was incorporated on February 7, 2005, under the name Gemwood Productions, for the purpose of marketing and selling day spa services to tourists at resort destinations throughout Mexico. On November 2, 2006, we changed our name to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. in connection with the acquisition of Kreido Laboatories, Inc., a California corporation (“Kreido Labs”), and the disposition of the Gemwood Leasco, Inc. subsidiary, through which entity the tourist business had been carried out. Kreido Labs was founded to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite materials for electronic applications, and developed technology to improve the speed, completeness and efficiency of certain chemical reactions, including esterifications and transesterifications, in the pharmaceutical and special chemical industries.  In the first quarter of 2006, Kreido Labs elected to focus exclusively on the biodiesel industry. This business was not successful, and we sold the technology and related assets to an unrelated party on March 5, 2009. After that disposition, we sought unsuccessfully for another acquisition until the present time. In November of 2019, the Company discontinued operations of its subsidiary, Kreido Labs. On April 19, 2022, the Company changed its name to Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc.

 

Our registration statement on Form SB-2, file number 333-140718, became effective on June 28, 2007.  Subsequent to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, we continued to file annual and quarterly reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a voluntary basis through the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  On February 16, 2009, we elected to terminate our registration and our election to file periodic reports. On March 2, 2018, we filed a registration statement on Form 10, and the registration statement became effective on May 8, 2018.

 

On November 10, 2017, the Company issued 142,924,167 shares of common stock to Reed Petersen, its then officer and director in consideration of cash of $21,434 paid by him to satisfy accounts payable of the Company, and in conversion of $150,075 in accounts payable which he had acquired from the owners of that debt. This transaction was exempt under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as one not involving any public solicitation or public offering, and was also exempt under Section 4(5) as an offering solely to accredited investors not involving any public solicitation or public offering.

  

On June 5, 2018, the Company and its sole officer and director, G. Reed Petersen, entered into that certain Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Petersen agreed to sell to certain purchasers an aggregate of 142,924,167 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Control Shares”), representing approximately 73% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company, for aggregate cash consideration of $420,000 in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement. The sale of the Control Shares consummated on June 29, 2018. In connection with the sale of the Control Shares, G. Reed Petersen resigned from his positions as the sole executive officer and director of the Company, effective June 29, 2018.  Mr. Petersen’s departure was not due to any dispute or disagreement with the Company on any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.  Concurrently, the Board of Directors appointed Wai Lim Wong to fill the vacancies created by Mr. Petersen’s resignation, and to serve as the Company’s sole Director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary.

("OEC"), a SAMOA company, constituting all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of OEC, held by CDC. In consideration for such OEC shares, the Company agreed to issue to CDC two million shares of its common stock at a per share price of $0.50. Mr. HSU is the director and sole executive officer of CDC. The acquisition consummated on April 30, 2023, and as a result, OEC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As of the date of this report, the Company has not yet issued the 2,000,000 shares due to Mr. Hsu.

 

The foregoing description of the Share Exchange Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Share Exchange Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Annual Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Results of Operations

  

Following is management’s discussion of the relevant items affecting results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Revenues. The Company generated no revenues during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 were $589,456, consisting primarily of professional fees of $106,082, compared to $69,066 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and salaries of $478,000, compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2022.  The increase was mainly due to the addition of salaries, depreciation of right-of-use assets, legal fee, accounting and audit fee incurred by the Company due to acquisition of subsidiary in April 2023.

 

We expect operating expenses to increase as we continue our process of identifying prospective acquisition targets and hopefully successfully consummate such an acquisition.

 

 

 

 33 

 

 

Other Expense. The Company had other expense of $566 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $0 during the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase is mainly due to foreign exchange loss and imputed interest on lease liabilities incurred during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Net Loss.  For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $590,022, as compared to $69,066 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in net loss was due to addition of salaries, depreciation of right-of-use assets, legal fee, accounting and audit fee incurred by the Company due to acquisition of subsidiary in April 2023.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2021, our primary source of liquidity consisted of $0 in cash and cash equivalents. Since inception, we have financed our operations through a combination of short and long-term loans, and through the private placement of our common stock.

 

Going Concern Uncertainties.

 

We have sustained significant net losses which have resulted in a total stockholders’ deficit as at December 31, 2023 of $50,110,176 and are currently experiencing a substantial shortfall in operating capital which raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Until we successfully consummate an acquisition with an operating company, we expect to continue to incur net losses. Depending upon the financial profile of our acquired company, we may continue in our net loss position even after the acquisition of an operating company. With the expected cash requirements for the coming months, without additional cash inflows from an increase in revenues combined with continued cost-cutting or a receipt of cash from capital investment, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue operations.

 

There is presently no agreement in place with any source of financing for the Company, and we cannot be assured that the Company will be able to raise any additional funds, or that such funds will be available on acceptable terms. Funds raised through future equity financing will likely be substantially dilutive to current shareholders. Lack of additional funds will materially affect the Company and its business and may cause us to cease operations. Consequently, shareholders could incur a loss of their entire investment in the Company.

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $70,652, which consisted primarily of a net loss of $590,022, and increase in accrued liabilities of $513,650.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $53,821, which consisted primarily of a net loss of $69,066, and increase in accrued liabilities of $15,245.

 

Net Cash Used In/Provided By Investing Activities.

 

There was no net cash used in or provided by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. 

 

Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $70,514, from advance from a director of $70,514.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $53,821, from advance from a director of $53,821.

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.  

 

Contractual Obligations

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.

 

Critical accounting policies

 

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in Note 2 to our financial statements contained herein.  

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

The recent 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Namliong Skycosmos, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Namliong Skycosmos, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2023, and 2022 the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the related notes collectively referred to as the "financial statements”.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3, the Company incurred a net loss of $590,022 and suffered from an accumulated deficit of $50,110,176 as of December 31, 2023. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regards to these matters are also described in Note 3 to the financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

 

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Namliong Skycosmos, Inc. (the “Company” or “NLSC”) was incorporated as Gemwood Productions, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 7, 2005. Gemwood Productions, Inc. changed its name to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. on November 2, 2006. The Company took its current form on January 12, 2007 when Kreido Laboratories, Inc. (“Kreido Labs”), completed a reverse triangular merger with Kreido Biofuels, Inc. On April 19, 2022, the Company changed its current name to Namliong SkyCosmos, Inc.

 

Kreido Labs, formerly known as Holl Technologies Company, was incorporated on January 13, 1995 under the laws of the State of California. Since incorporation, Kreido Labs has been engaged in activities required to develop, patent and commercialize its products. Kreido Labs was the creator of reactor technology that was designed to enhance the manufacturing of a broad range of chemical products.

 

The cornerstone of Kreido Labs’ technology was its patented STT® (Spinning Tube in Tube) diffusional chemical reacting system, which were both a licensable process and a licensable system. In 2005, the Company demonstrated how the STT® could make biodiesel from vegetable oil rapidly with almost complete conversion and less undesirable by-products. The Company had continued to pursue this activity, built and tested a pilot biodiesel production unit and, prior to June 20, 2008, was in the process of developing the first of its commercial biodiesel production plants in the United States that, if constructed and put into operation, was expected to produce approximately 33 million to 50 million gallons per year. On June 20, 2008, the Company announced that due to the weakening of the economy, the continued financial market turmoil and the inability to raise needed capital to finance site construction and plant start-up costs, the Company was suspending work regarding its flagship biodiesel production plant at the Port of Wilmington, North Carolina. In November of 2018, the Company discontinued operations of its subsidiary, Kreido Labs.

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Continental Development Corporation, a Samoa company (“CDC”) that is controlled by Cheng Hsing HSU, our sole executive officer and director, to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock of Orient Express & Co., Ltd. ("OEC"), a SAMOA company, constituting all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of OEC, held by CDC. In consideration for such OEC shares, the Company agreed to issue to CDC two million shares of its common stock at a per share price of $0.50. Mr. HSU is the director and sole executive officer of CDC. The acquisition was consummated on April 30, 2023, and as a result, OEC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company was considered as a shell company due to its nominal assets and limited operation. The transaction will be treated as a recapitalization of the Company.

 

Upon the Share Exchange between the Company and OEC on March 31, 2023, is a merger of entities under common control that Mr. HSU is the common director and shareholder of both the Company and OEC. Under the guidance in ASC 805 for transactions between entities under common control, the assets, liabilities and results of operations, are recognized at their carrying amounts on the date of the Share Exchange, which required retrospective combination of the Company and OEC for all periods presented.

 

Our current business will be to seek to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target.

 

 

 

 F-6 

 

 

Our acquisition strategy will be to assess a broad range of potential business combination targets and complete a business combination. In doing so, we will evaluate the historical financial statements of the target, its management, and projected future results. In evaluating a prospective target business, we expect to conduct a thorough due diligence review that will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and employees, document reviews, inspection of facilities, as well as a review of financial and other information that will be made available to us.

 

We are not prohibited from pursuing a business combination with a company that is affiliated with our management, but we have no plans to do so. We do not plan to retain a significant equity position after closing of any acquisition and management does not plan to continue as part of the new management team.

 

We have not selected any specific business combination target. Our sole officer and director presently has, and in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity. Accordingly, if our officer and director becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such opportunity to such entity. We do not believe, however, that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officer/director will materially affect our ability to complete our business combination.

 

Our executive officer is not required to commit any specified amount of time to our affairs, and, accordingly, will have conflicts of interest in allocating management time among various business activities, including identifying potential business combination targets and monitoring the related due diligence.

 

On December 14, 2021, certain shareholders owning 13,099,243 of our common stock, representing a majority of issued and outstanding shares, agreed to sell their shares to 6 shareholders. This constitutes a change in control of the Company.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.

 

Basis of presentation

These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Use of estimates and assumptions

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

 

 

 F-7 

 

 

Fair value of financial instruments

Financial instruments, including cash and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts, which reasonably approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these amounts or due to variable rates of interest, which are consistent with market rates.

 

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NLSC and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NLSC and its subsidiary Orient Express and Co., Ltd.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.

 

Revenue recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).

 

Under ASU 2014-09, the Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:

 

· identify the contract with a customer;
· identify the performance obligations in the contract;
· determine the transaction price;
· allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and
· recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company’s revenue is derived from the sales of rubber foaming machine. The Company considers customer order confirmations to be a contract with the customer. Customer confirmations are executed at the time an order is placed. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment date. As a result, the Company has a present and unconditional right to payment and record its accounts receivable.

 

For each contract, the Company considers the promise to transfer products to be the only identified performance obligation. The Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as intangible asset held and used by the Company 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 evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.

 

 

 

 F-8 

 

 

Leases

The Company adopted Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. However, certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as prepaid or accrued lease payments. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

 

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.). Subsequently, the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on the respective relative fair values to the lease components and non-lease components.

 

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Lease expense includes amortization of the ROU assets and accretion of the lease liabilities. Amortization of ROU assets is calculated as the periodic lease cost less accretion of the lease liability. The amortized period for ROU assets is limited to the expected lease term.

 

The Company has elected a practical expedient to combine the lease and non-lease components into a single lease component. The Company also elected the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption and does not establish ROU assets or lease liabilities for operating leases with terms of 12 months or less.

 

Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.

 

Income Taxes

The Company adopted the ASC 740 Income tax provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under paragraph 740-10-25-13, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Paragraph 740-10-25-13 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13.

 

 

 

 F-9 

 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820-10"), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, loans receivable and amount due to or from a related party, approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

 

Uncertain tax positions

The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to its income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the ASC 740 provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Commitments and contingencies

The Company follows the ASC 450-20, Commitments to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB established the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

  

Rules and interpretative releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However, Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans, which raises substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Common Stock

 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 300,000,000 common shares, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 preferred shares, also $0.001 par value. There were 14,706,513 shares and 14,706,513 shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were no preferred shares outstanding during any periods presented.

 

Common Stock to be issued

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Continental Development Corporation, a Samoa company (“CDC”) that is controlled by Cheng Hsing HSU, our sole executive officer and director, to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock of Orient Express & Co., Ltd. (“OEC”), a SAMOA company, constituting all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of OEC, held by CDC. In consideration for such OEC shares, the Company agreed to issue to CDC two million shares of its common stock at a per share price of $0.50.

 

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 2,000,000 and 0 shares of its common stock committed to be issued but pending to be consummated, respectively.

 

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

 

United States of America

 

On December 22, 2017, the 2019 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted into law including a one-time mandatory transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings and a reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, among others. We are required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as determining the transition tax, remeasuring our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company does not have any foreign earnings and therefore, we do not anticipate the impact of a transition tax.

 

We have remeasured our U.S. deferred tax assets at a statutory income tax rate of 21%. Since the Tax Act was passed late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and ongoing guidance and accounting interpretation are expected over the next 12 months, we consider the accounting of any transition tax, deferred tax re-measurements, and other items to be incomplete due to the forthcoming guidance and our ongoing analysis of final year-end data and tax positions.

 

 

 

 F-13 

 

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 21% as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:

          
  2023   2022 
         
Net operating loss carryover  $49,626,318   $49,520,154 
Deferred tax asset   10,421,527    10,399,232 
Less: valuation allowance   (10,421,527)   (10,399,232)
Net deferred tax asset  $   $ 

 

At December 31, 2023, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $49,626,318 that may be offset against future taxable income. The Tax Act also changed the rules on net operating loss carry forwards. The 20-year limitation was eliminated, giving the taxpayer the ability to carry forward losses indefinitely. However, NOL carry forward arising after January 1, 2020, will now be limited to 80 percent of taxable income.

 

No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2023, the Company’s financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.  Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. A change in ownership may limit net operating loss carry forwards in future years.   The benefits of our deferred tax assets, including our NOLs, built-in losses and tax credits would be reduced or potentially eliminated if we experienced an “ownership change” under Section 382.

 

Hong Kong

 

OEC is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at the two-tiered profits tax rates from 8.25% to 16.5% on the estimated assessable profits arising in Hong Kong.

 

The reconciliation of income tax rate to the effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

        
   Year ended December 31, 
   2023   2022 
         
Loss before income taxes  $(483,858)  $ 
Statutory income tax rate   16.5%    16.5% 
Income tax expense at statutory rate   (79,836)    
Net operating loss   79,836     
Income tax expense  $   $ 

 

As of December 31, 2023, the operations in Hong Kong incurred $1,150,096 of cumulative net operating losses which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards has no expiry under Hong Kong tax regime. The Company has provided for a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets of $189,766 on the expected future tax benefits from the net operating loss carryforwards as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.

 

 

 

 F-14 

 

 

The following table sets forth the significant components of the deferred tax assets of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

          
   December 31, 2023   December 31, 2022 
         
Deferred tax assets:

NOTE 9 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company has been provided with free office space by its shareholders. The management determined that such cost is nominal and did not recognize the rent expense in its financial statements.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid the allowance of $100,000 and $0 to the director for his service.

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Continental Development Corporation, a Samoa company (“CDC”) that is controlled by Cheng Hsing HSU, our sole executive officer and director, to purchase 100% equity interest (equal to 1,000,000 shares of common stock) of Orient Express & Co., Ltd. (“OEC”), a SAMOA company, constituting all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of OEC. NLSC will issue 2 million shares of its common stock at a price of $0.5 per share to CDC, the sole shareholder of OEC. The acquisition is considered as related party transaction, whereas Mr. Cheng Hsing HSU is a sole shareholder of the Company and also currently controls OEC.

 

Apart from the transactions and balances detailed elsewhere in these accompanying financial statements, the Company has no other significant or material related party transactions during the years presented.

 

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

As of December 31, 2023, the Company has no material commitments or contingencies.

 

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before consolidated financial statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after December 31, 2023, up through the date the Company issued the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Management’s Evaluation 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, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of December 31, 2023, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.  Our board of directors has only one member. We do not have a formal audit committee.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Our control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: 

 

·pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets; 

 

·provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures are being made only with proper authorizations of management and directors; and 

 

·provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

 

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  

 

Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the 2013 Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on our assessment and those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023. 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2023, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

 

Our executive compensation philosophy is to create a long-term direct relationship between pay and our performance. Our executive compensation program is designed to provide a balanced total compensation package over the executive’s career with us. The compensation program objectives are to attract, motivate and retain the qualified executives that help ensure our future success, to provide incentives for increasing our profits by awarding executives when corporate goals are achieved and to align the interests of executives and long-term stockholders. The compensation package of our named executive officers consists of two main elements:

 

  1. base salary for our executives that is competitive relative to the market, and that reflects individual performance, retention and other relevant considerations; and

 

  2. discretionary bonus awards payable in cash and tied to the satisfaction of corporate objectives.

 

Process for Setting Executive Compensation

 

Until such time as we establish a Compensation Committee, our Board is responsible for developing and overseeing the implementation of our philosophy with respect to the compensation of executives and for monitoring the implementation and results of the compensation philosophy to ensure compensation remains competitive, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value and rewards superior performance. We expect to annually review and approve for each named executive officer, and particularly with regard to the Chief Executive Officer, all components of the executive’s compensation. We process and factors (including individual and corporate performance measures and actual performance versus such measures) used by the Chief Executive Officer to recommend such awards. Additionally, we expect to review and approve the base salary, equity-incentive awards (if any) and any other special or supplemental benefits of the named executive officers.

 

The Chief Executive Officer periodically provides the Board with an evaluation of each named executive officer’s performance, based on the individual performance goals and objectives developed by the Chief Executive Officer at the beginning of the year, as well as other factors. The Board provides an evaluation for the Chief Executive Officer. These evaluations serve as the bases for bonus recommendations and changes in the compensation arrangements of our named executives.

 

Our Compensation Peer Group

 

We currently engage in informal market analysis in evaluating our executive compensation arrangements. As the Company and its businesses mature, we may retain compensation consultants that will assist us in developing a formal benchmark and selecting a compensation peer group of companies similar to us in size or business for the purpose of comparing executive compensation levels.

 

Program Components

 

Our executive compensation program consists of the following elements:

  

 

 

 

 39 

 

 

Base Salary

 

Our base salary structure is designed to encourage internal growth, attract and retain new talent, and reward strong leadership that will sustain our growth and profitability. The base salary for each named executive officer reflects our past and current operating profits, the named executive officer’s individual contribution to our success throughout his career, internal pay equity and informal market data regarding comparable positions within similarly situated companies. In determining and setting base salary, the Board considers all of these factors, though it does not assign specific weights to any factor. The Board generally reviews the base salary for each named executive officer on an annual basis. For each of our named executive officers, we review base salary data internally obtained by the Company for comparable executive positions in similarly situated companies to ensure that the base salary rate for each executive is competitive relative to the market.

 

Discretionary Bonus

 

The objectives of our bonus awards are to encourage and reward our employees, including the named executive officers, who contribute to and participate in our success by their ability, industry, leadership, loyalty or exceptional service and to recruit additional executives who will contribute to that success.

 

Summary Compensation Table

 

The following summary compensation table sets forth the aggregate compensation we paid or accrued during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, to (i) our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer), (ii) our Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), (iii) our three most highly compensated executive officers other than the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer who were serving as executive officers on December 31, 2023, whose total compensation was in excess of $100,000, and (iv) up to two additional individuals who would have been within the two-other-most-highly compensated but were not serving as executive officers on December 31, 2023.

Compensation Risk Management

 

Our Board of directors and human resources staff conducted an assessment of potential risks that may arise from our compensation programs. Based on this assessment, we concluded that our policies and practices do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk taking that would be reasonably likely to have material adverse effect on the Company. The assessment included our cash incentive programs, which awards non-executives with cash bonuses for punctuality. Our compensation programs are substantially identical among business units, corporate functions and global locations (with modifications to comply with local regulations as appropriate). The risk-mitigating factors considered in this assessment included:

 

  · the alignment of pay philosophy, peer group companies and compensation amounts relative to local competitive practices to support our business objectives; and
     
  · effective balance of cash, short- and long-term performance periods, caps on performance-based award schedules and financial metrics with individual factors and Board and management discretion.

  

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

 

We have not yet established a Compensation Committee. Our Board of Directors performs the functions that would be performed by a compensation committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, none of our executive officers has served: (i) on the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our board of directors; (ii) as a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of the registrant; or (iii) as a member of the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of the company.

 

Compensation Committee Report

 

Our board of directors has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis in this report with management. Based on its review and discussion with management, the board of directors recommended that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The material in this report is not deemed filed with the SEC and is not incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made on, before, or after the date of this Report on Form 10-K and irrespective of any general incorporation language in such filing.

ITEM 13 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Other than as disclosed below, there are no transactions during our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, or any currently proposed transaction, in which our Company was or to be a participant and the amount exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our Company’s total assets at year end for our last two completed years, and in which any of our directors, officers or principal stockholders, or any other related person as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K, had or have any direct or indirect material interest.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, Cheng Hsing HSU, our Chief Financial Officer, Director and shareholder provided us with free office space. The management determined that such cost is nominal and did not recognize the rent expense in its financial statements.

 

Director Independence

 

Though not a listed company, we intend to adhere to the corporate governance standards adopted by NASDAQ. NASDAQ rules require our Board to make an affirmative determination as to the independence of each director. Consistent with these rules, our Board conducted its annual review of director independence. During the review, our Board considered relationships and transactions since incorporation between each director or any member of her immediate family, on the one hand, and us and our subsidiaries and affiliates, on the other hand. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions were inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent. Based on this review, our Board determined that none of the current members of our Board are independent directors under the criteria established by NASDAQ and by our Board.
