NOTE 2 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS – CONTINUED

Syndicore Asia Limited – Video Syndication and E-Commerce Company – Continued

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

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

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

- Premium positioning

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

- Securing sponsorships with related enterprises

- Stronger control over distribution to help target intended audience.

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

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

SAL is also in the startup phase and is in the process of entering into arrangements and agreements to implement the current business plan. Syndicore Asia Limited is devoting its resources to establishing the new business, and its planned operations have not yet fully commenced.

Green Standard Technologies Enterprises, Inc. (F/K/A Green Standard Technologies, Inc.)

On August 1, 2014, the Company formed Green Standard Technologies, Inc. (“GSTE”) as a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated under the law of the state of Nevada. The Company’s second line of business is carried out by this subsidiary.

GSTE is in the medical and recreation marijuana industry, and the establishment of a website will be used to further their business by providing visions with medical and recreational marijuana resource.

During the year 2017, GSTE was inactive, no longer had a useful purpose, and provided no revenue to the Company. On Dec 29, 2017, for the best interest of the Company, the Board decided to eliminate all costs in connection with GSTE, agreed not to continue GSTE and closed down with immediate effect.

NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Con’t)

Use of estimates

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

Concentrations of credit risk

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

Cash and cash equivalents

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

NOTE 4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the GroupCompany will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. The GroupCompany extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible. The GroupCompany does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable. The Group has aPursuant to the Company’s credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basison-going-basis where management performs credit evaluations are preferred on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount.that are sold services or products on account. The GroupCompany had not experienced any bad debts during the nine months periodsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 and 20182019, respectively.

Plant and equipment

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

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

Furniture and fixtures20% - 50%
Office equipment  20%

 

Furniture and fixtures

20% - 50%

Office equipment

20%

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

Revenue recognition


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

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

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

Revenue recognition - Continued

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

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

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

Cost of sales

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

Operating lease rental

The Company did not have a lease that met the criteria of a capital lease. Leases that do not qualify as a capital lease are classified as an operating lease. Operating lease rental expenses included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $24,229 and $21,374, respectively.

Selling expenses

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

Retirement Benefit Plans

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

The total amounts for such employee benefits which were expensed were $11,904 and $4,979 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Product warranty

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

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The FASB issued Accounting Standard Codification Topic 740 (ASC 740) “Income Taxes”. ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This requires that an entity recognized in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The adoption of ASC 740 did not have any impact on the Group’s results of operations or financial condition for the nine months period ended September 30, 2019. As of the date of the adoption of ASC 740, the Group has no material unrecognized tax benefit which would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. The Group has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Comprehensive incomeincome(loss)

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

Leases

Our executive offices are located in the Carnival Commercial Building, 18 Java Road, North Point Hong Kong. Our current lease is from August 28, 2019 to August 27, 2021 at a monthly charge of HK$8,000 (approximately $1,040) per month. We have successfully renewed our lease in the past and do not expect any difficulty in renewing it again.

Our subsidiary, Hunan Syndicore Asia Limited, leases 682.5 square meters office space at Tower E1, Li Gu Yu Yuan, No. 27 Wen Xuan Road, Chang Sha, Hunan Province, China at a monthly charge of RMB 22,522.83 (approximately $3,217.55) per month. The term of the lease is from May 15, 2019 to May 14, 2024. The lease may be renewed upon three months prior written notice.

Our recently formed subsidiary, Ezekiel Technology Inc., leases 296.93 square meters office space at Xin Li Kang Tower, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China at a monthly charge of RMB 36,440.55 (approximately $5,205) per month. The term of the lease is from April 1, 2020 to April 9, 2023. The lease may be renewed upon six months prior written notice.

Under Topic 842, operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of facilities with remaining lease terms of approximately two to four years. The Company does not have the option to terminate the leases early.

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of Topic 842, the Company has combined the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and ROU assets.

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. The Company used the incremental borrowing rate on December 29, 2018 of 5.5% for all leases that commenced prior to that date.

Foreign currency translation

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

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

Basic and diluted earnings per share

The Group computes

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS’) in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 260 (“ASC 260”) “Earnings Per Share”, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as thehas been computed by dividing net income or loss available to common shareholders divided(loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 have been computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potentialand common shares (e.g. convertible securities,stock equivalents, which include options and warrants) as if they had been converted atconvertible notes outstanding during the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

The calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are based on the estimate fair value of the Group’s common stock during such periods applied to options using the treasury stock method to determine if they are dilutive.

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Group’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Group’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Group, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Group. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Commitments and contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

Adoption of new accounting standards

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

The adoption of the standard in the consolidated financial statements for the financial period ended September 30, 2019 will have no significant impact to the provision for income taxes and will have no impact to the net cash used in, or generated by, operating, investing, or financing activities in the Group’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires that expected credit losses relating to financial assets be measured on an amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 limits the amount of credit losses to be recognized for available-for-sale debt securities to the amount by which carrying value exceeds fair value and also requires the reversal of previously recognized credit losses if fair value increases. Also, for available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, the standard eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairments and requires allowances to be recorded instead of reducing the amortized cost of the investment. The adoption by the Company of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are presented under the new standard, while comparative periods presented are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. In July 2018, the FASB issued amendments in ASU 2018-11, which provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method, by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption, and to not apply the new guidance in the comparative periods they present in the financial statements. We adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition approach and elected to use the effective date as the date of initial application. As a result of the adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, we recorded operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets of $3.26 million and operating lease liabilities of $3.25 million. The ROU assets include adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments. The adoption did not impact the Company’s beginning retained earnings, or its prior year consolidated statements of income and statements of cash flows.

 

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

 

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

 

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

The Company and one subsidiary, which was discontinued in cooperation, were incorporated in the United States, and are subject to United States federal and state income taxes. The Company did not generate taxable income in the United States for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Two subsidiaries were incorporated in Hong Kong, and are subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at 16.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Provision for Hong Kong profits tax has not been made for the periods presented as the subsidiaries have no assessable profits during the periods. One subsidiary is incorporated in PRC, and is subject to PRC Income Tax at 25% for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.  Provision for PRC Income Tax has not been made for the year presented as the subsidiary has no assessable profits during the year.

Deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. For the nine months periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Group has tax loss carrying-forwards, which does not recognize deferred tax assets as it is not probable that future taxable profits against which the losses can be utilized will be available in the relevant tax jurisdiction and entity.

NOTE 117 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Group adopted

FASB ASCAccounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), related to the Group’s financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 definesprovides a single definition of fair value, establishes a frameworkhierarchy for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expandsexpanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 definesadjustments. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value as the price that wouldof assets and liabilities. Inputs may be receivedbased on independent market data (“observable inputs”) or they may be internally developed (“unobservable inputs”). These inputs are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes. The level of a value determined for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) inwithin the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participantsfair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement date. ASC 820 also describesin its entirety. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measurethe fair value:value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.or liabilities at the measurement date;

Level 2 — observable inputs other - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable inputs for similar assets or liabilities. These include quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities.of liabilities in markets that are not active;

Level 3 — unobservable - Unobservable inputs in which there isthat are supported by little or no market data available, which require the reporting entityactivity and that are significant to develop its own assumptions.

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

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

The following table details the fair value measurements of assets and liabilitiesclassified within the three levelsLevel 3 of the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2019,because their fair values are estimated by utilizing valuation models and December 31, 2018:significant unobservable inputs.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Asia Pacific Region. In addition, they provide consumer-to-consumer, business-to-consumerUnited States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and business-to-business-sales services via its web portalsassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the Bibishengjia APP.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. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Specific risks for these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.

Pretech

Revenue Recognition. We are an e-Commerce company whose business is based on the use of Bibishengjia, a self-developed online application. Bibishengjia is a software, hardwareshopping search engine that searches many shopping sites, primarily based in China, at once, including major shopping sites such as Taobao.com, Tmall.com, JD.com and digital companyPinduoduo.com, and helps customers meet their one-stop online shopping needs. Bibishengjia also runs its own online shopping platforms Bibi Mall and Lianlian Nongyuan Agricultural Products Store. Bibishengjia was launched on August 18, 2019 and is currently available for download at the Apple APP Store and other major mobile download stores.

Known or expected pricing or revenue adjustments, such as trade discounts, rebates or returns, are estimated at the time of sale. We base these estimates of expected amounts principally on historical utilization and redemption rates. Estimates that also specializesaffect revenue, such as trade incentives and product returns, are monitored and adjusted each period until the incentives or product returns are realized.


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

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

Accounts Receivable. The majority of our accounts receivable are due from distributors (domestic and international) and retailers. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customers’ financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are most often due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. We determine whether an allowance is necessary by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, our previous loss history and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. We write off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the bad debt expense account. We do not accrue interest on accounts receivable past due.

Plant and equipment. Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including replacement of minor items, are charged to expense; major additions to physical properties are capitalized. Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates.

Income Taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the developmentyears in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and manufacturingliabilities of consumer electronics. Pretech operatesa change in both Hong Kongtax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Our company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our balance sheets or statements of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  The amendments in this Update require a new topic to be added (Topic 326) to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and removes the thresholds that entities apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, trade receivables, reinsurance recoverables, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, and held-to-maturity securities.  Under current U.S. GAAP, entities generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred.  The guidance under ASU 2016-13 will remove all current recognition thresholds and will require entities under the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the PRC, with a sister company locatedamount of amortized cost that an entity expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life.  The new CECL model is based upon expected losses rather than incurred losses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We are currently evaluating the effect that this new guidance will have on our financial statements and related disclosures.

The increase is attributable to an increase in the operating costs of HSAL. HSAL started to operate its self-developed online application “Bibishengjia” in August 2019, which began to gain popularity in 2020. The increased costs are attributable to increased direct sales costs, platform maintenance costs and Bibishengjia APP membership development costs.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our

As of June 30, 2020, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)(the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

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

Disclosure Controls include, within the definition under the Exchange Act, and without limitation, controls and procedures to insure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized; (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, we identified material weakness as follows: (1) lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function, and (2) lack of control procedures that include multiple levels of review.  UntilTo date, we are ablehave been unable to remedyremediate these material weaknesses, we determined thatweaknesses. The remediation initiatives planned by the Company include hiring more personnel with public company experience and engaging an outside consultant with considerable public company reporting experience and breadth of knowledge of US GAAP to provide more training in connection with the preparation and review of our controls were not effective.financial statements.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
