INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
We are not a Hong Kong operating company but a Delaware holding company with operations conducted through our wholly owned subsidiaries based in Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands. Our investors hold shares of common stock in King Resources, Inc., the Delaware holding company. This structure presents unique risks as our investors may never directly hold equity interests in our Hong Kong operating subsidiary and will be dependent upon contributions from our subsidiaries to finance our cash flow needs. Our ability to obtain contributions from our subsidiaries are significantly affected by regulations promulgated by Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China (“the PRC”) authorities. 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 Factors Relating to Doing Business in Hong Kong and China.” set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 24, 2022 (the “Annual Report”).
We currently operate in Hong Kong, and we intend to expand distribution of our products into China and other Asia markets as opportunities permit. While we have no current intention of expanding our physical presence or operations into China, we expect to become directly subject to all PRC laws with all risks described herein relating to the PRC to increase if we develop such physical presence or establish operations in China.
King Resources, Inc. and its Hong Kong and British Virgin Islands subsidiaries are not required to obtain permission from the Chinese authorities including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, or Cybersecurity Administration Committee, or CAC, to operate or to issue securities to foreign investors. In making this determination, we relied on the legal opinion of Ravenscroft Schmierer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 5 to the Company’s Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2022 (the “Form 10”). However, in light of the recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government, such as those related to the extension of China’s oversight and control into Hong Kong, the promulgation of regulations prohibiting foreign ownership of Chinese companies operating in certain industries, which are constantly evolving, and anti-monopoly concerns, we may be subject to the risks of uncertainty of any future actions of the PRC government in this regard including the risk that the PRC government could disallow our holding company structure, which may 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. If our subsidiary or the holding company were required to obtain approvals in the future, or we erroneously conclude that approvals were not required, or were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, our operations may materially change, our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to our investors or to continue listing on a U.S. exchange may be adversely affected, and the value of our common stock may significantly decline or become worthless, which would materially affect the interest of the investors. We may also be subject to penalties and sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, if we fail to comply with such rules and regulations, which could adversely affect the ability of the Company’s securities to continue to trade on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, which may cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
There may be prominent risks associated with our operations being in Hong Kong and China. For example, as a U.S.-listed Hong Kong public company, 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 MA rules, Anti-Monopoly Law, and the Data Security Law, and recent statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government such as those related to the use of variable interest entities, data security and anti-monopoly concerns, may target the Company's corporate structure and impact our ability to conduct business in Hong Kong and China, accept foreign investments, or list on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. For a detailed description of the risks facing the Company and the offering associated with our operations in Hong Kong and future operations in China, please refer to “Risk Factors – Risk Factors Relating to Doing Business in Hong Kong and China.” set forth in the Annual Report.

The recent joint statement by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“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 SEC adopted rules to implement the HFCAA. Pursuant to the HFCAA, the 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 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and is subject to PCAOB’s 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 to avoid having our securities delisted. 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 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 in the Annual Report.
In addition to the foregoing risks, we face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties arising from doing business in Hong Kong and China as summarized below and in “Risk Factors – Risks Factors Relating to Doing Business in Hong Kong and China.” set forth in the Annual Report.
| · | There are significant risks associated with our operations being based in Hong Kong. Adverse changes in economic and political policies of the Hong Kong and 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 currently, and in the future, in China, and the profitability of such business.” and “Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political, legal 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 the PRC, and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | We are a holding company with operations conducted through our wholly owned subsidiary based in Hong Kong. This structure presents unique risks as our investors may never directly hold equity interests in our Hong Kong 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 or other cash payments, our ability to pay dividends or make other cash payments is limited.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | There is a possibility that the PRC could prevent our cash maintained in Hong Kong from leaving or the PRC could restrict the deployment of the cash into our business or for the payment of dividends. We rely on dividends from our Hong Kong subsidiary for our cash and financing requirements, such as the funds necessary to service any debt we may incur. Any such controls or restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our shareholders. Please see “Risk Factors – Our Hong Kong subsidiary may be subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments to us, which may restrict its ability to satisfy liquidity requirements, conduct business and pay dividends to holders of our common stock.”; “Risk Factors - PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds we receive from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to our Hong Kong subsidiary, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand business.”; “Risk Factors - Because our holding company structure creates restrictions on the payment of dividends or other cash payments, our ability to pay dividends or make other payments is limited.” and “Transfers of Cash to and from our Subsidiaries.” set forth in the Annual Report. |
| iii |
| · | PRC regulation of loans to and direct investments in PRC entities by offshore holding companies may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions to our operating subsidiaries in Hong Kong. Substantial uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of the PRC Foreign Investment Law and how it may impact the viability of our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations. Please see “Risk Factors – PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds we receive from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to our Hong Kong subsidiary, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand business.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | In light of China’s extension of its authority into Hong Kong, we are subject to risks arising from the legal system in Hong Kong and China, including risks and uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in Hong Kong and China can change quickly with little or no advance notice. There is also a risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in Hong Kong or PRC based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities. We are currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities (including the CSRC and the CAC) to operate or 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 Hong Kong-based issuers over time and if our subsidiary or the holding company were required to obtain approvals in the future, or we erroneously conclude that approvals were not required, or were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, our operations may materially change, our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to our investors or to continue listing on a U.S. exchange may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and the value of our common stock (including those we are registering for sale now or in the future) may significantly decline or become worthless, which would materially affect the interest of the investors. To the extent that we expand our operations into China, all of the foregoing risks will become more prominent and directly applicable to us, and significantly adverse policies from the PRC may force us to divest of such Chinese operations or face other risks of forfeiture. 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 currently, and in the future, in China, and the profitability of such business.”, “Substantial uncertainties and restrictions with respect to the political, legal 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 the PRC, and accordingly on the results of our operations and financial condition.” and “The PRC government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of a Hong Kong company’s business operations or to exert control over any offering of securities conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, and may intervene with or influence our operations, may limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, and may cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless, as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | 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, especially if we expand operations or physical presence into China. We may be liable for improper use or appropriation of personal information provided by our customers. Please see “Risk Factors – The PRC government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of a Hong Kong company’s business operations or to exert control over any offering of securities conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, and may intervene with or influence our operations, may limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, and may cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless, as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC (“EIT Law”), we may be classified as a “Resident Enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders. Please see “Risk Factors – Our global income may be subject to PRC taxes under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.” set forth in the Annual Report. |
| iv |
| · | Failure to comply with PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident Shareholders to personal liability, may limit our ability to acquire Hong Kong and PRC companies or to inject capital into our Hong Kong subsidiary, may limit the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiaries to distribute profits to us or may otherwise materially and adversely affect us. | |
| · | You may be subject to PRC income tax on dividends from us or on any gain realized on the transfer of shares of our common stock. Please see “Risk Factors – Dividends payable to our foreign investors and gains on the sale of our shares of common stock by our foreign investors may become subject to tax by the PRC.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | We face uncertainties with respect to indirect transfers of equity interests in PRC resident enterprises by their non-PRC holding companies. Please see “Risk Factors – We and our shareholders face uncertainties with respect to indirect transfers of equity interests in PRC resident enterprises by their non-PRC holding companies.” set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | We are organized under the laws of the State of Delaware as a holding company that conducts its business through a number of subsidiaries organized under the laws of foreign jurisdictions such as Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands. 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 Hong Kong against us or our management or to effect service of process on the officers and directors managing the foreign subsidiaries. Please see “Risk Factors – Investors may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in Hong Kong based upon U.S. laws, including the federal securities laws or other foreign laws against us or our management. set forth in the Annual Report. | |
| · | U.S. regulatory bodies may be limited in their ability to conduct investigations or inspections of our operations in China. | |
| · | There are significant uncertainties under the EIT Law relating to the withholding tax liabilities of our PRC subsidiary, and dividends payable by our PRC subsidiary to our offshore subsidiaries may not qualify to enjoy certain treaty benefits. Please see “Risk Factors – Our global income may be subject to PRC taxes under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.” set forth in the Annual Report. |
References in this registration statement to the “Company,” “KRFG,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to King Resources, Inc., a Delaware company and all of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. Where reference to a specific entity is required, the name of such specific entity will be referenced.
Transfers of Cash to and from Our Subsidiaries
King Resources, Inc. is a Delaware holding company with no operations of its own. We conduct our operations in Hong Kong primarily through our operating subsidiary in Hong Kong, and most of our cash is maintained in Hong Kong Dollars. We may rely on dividends to be paid by our Hong Kong or British Virgin Islands subsidiaries 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. There is a possibility that the PRC could prevent our cash maintained in Hong Kong from leaving or the PRC could restrict the deployment of the cash into our business or for the payment of dividends. Any such controls or restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our shareholders. If our Hong Kong subsidiary incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. To date, our subsidiaries have not made any transfers, dividends or distributions to King Resources, Inc. and King Resources, Inc. has not made any transfers, dividends or distributions to its subsidiaries.
King Resources, Inc. is permitted under Delaware laws to provide funding to our subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds, subject to satisfaction of applicable government registration, approval and filing requirements. Our Hong Kong subsidiary, Powertech Corporation Limited (“Powertech Corp”), and British Virgin Islands subsidiary, Powertech Management Limited, are also permitted under the laws of Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands to provide funding to King Resources, Inc. through dividend distributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds. As of the date of this report, there has been no dividends or distributions among the parent company or the subsidiaries nor do we expect such dividends or distributions to occur in the foreseeable future among the parent company and its subsidiaries.
| v |
We currently intend to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors after considering our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual requirements, business prospects and other factors the board of directors deems relevant, and subject to the restrictions contained in any future financing instruments.
Currently, the treasury function of King Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries is centralized and operated by the finance department of Powertech Corporation Limited located in Hong Kong under the management of its chief financial officer. In order to provide a process and guidance on collecting, accounting for, and safeguarding all cash and cash equivalents of King Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries, we have established a cash management policy that includes procedures on receiving funds, depositing funds, and proper documentation and recording of cash.
Subject to the Delaware General Corporation Law 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 Delaware statutory restriction on the amount of funds which may be distributed by us by dividend.
Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by us. The laws and regulations of the PRC do not currently have any material impact on transfer of cash from King Resources, Inc. to our Hong Kong subsidiary or from our Hong Kong subsidiary to King Resources, Inc. There are no restrictions or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong imposed on the conversion of Hong Kong dollar into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of Hong Kong or across borders and to U.S. investors.
There is a possibility that the PRC could prevent our cash maintained in Hong Kong from leaving or the PRC could restrict the deployment of the cash into our business or for the payment of dividends. Any such controls or restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our shareholders. Please see “Risk Factors – Our Hong Kong subsidiary may be subject to restrictions on paying dividends or making other payments to us, which may restrict its ability to satisfy liquidity requirements, conduct business and pay dividends to holders of our common stock.”; “Risk Factors – PRC regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from using the proceeds we receive from offshore financing activities to make loans to or make additional capital contributions to our Hong Kong subsidiary, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand business.”; “Risk Factors – Because our holding company structure creates restrictions on the payment of dividends or other cash payments, our ability to pay dividends or make other payments is limited.” set forth in the Annual Report.
Current PRC regulations permit PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to Hong Kong subsidiaries only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, each of our subsidiaries in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Each of such entity in China is also required to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at the discretion of its board of directors. Although the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess of retained earnings of the respective companies, the reserve funds are not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation. As of the date of this report, we do not have any PRC subsidiaries.
The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of Renminbi (“RMB”) into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. Therefore, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency to finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our shareholders. Furthermore, if our subsidiaries in the PRC incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments. If we or our subsidiaries are unable to receive all of the revenues from our operations, we may be unable to pay dividends on our common stock.
| vi |
Cash dividends, if any, on our common stock will be paid in U.S. dollars. If we are considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes, any dividends we pay to our overseas shareholders may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result may be subject to PRC withholding tax at a rate of up to 10%.
In order for us to pay dividends to our shareholders, we will rely on payments made from our Hong Kong subsidiary to King Resources, Inc. If in the future we have PRC subsidiaries, certain payments from such PRC subsidiaries to our Hong Kong subsidiary will be subject to PRC taxes, including business taxes and Value-added tax. As of the date of this report, we do not have any PRC subsidiaries and our Hong Kong subsidiary has not made any transfers, dividends or distributions nor do we expect to make such transfer, dividends or distributions in the foreseeable future.
Pursuant to the Arrangement between Mainland China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion on Income, or the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, the 10% withholding tax rate may be lowered to 5% if a Hong Kong resident enterprise owns no less than 25% of a PRC entity. However, the 5% withholding tax rate does not automatically apply and certain requirements must be satisfied, including, without limitation, that (a) the Hong Kong entity must be the beneficial owner of the relevant dividends; and (b) the Hong Kong entity must directly hold no less than 25% share ownership in the PRC entity during the 12 consecutive months preceding its receipt of the dividends. In current practice, a Hong Kong entity must obtain a tax resident certificate from the Hong Kong tax authority to apply for the 5% lower PRC withholding tax rate. As the Hong Kong tax authority will issue such a tax resident certificate on a case-by-case basis, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong tax authority and enjoy the preferential withholding tax rate of 5% under the Double Taxation Arrangement with respect to dividends to be paid by a PRC subsidiary to its immediate holding company. As of the date of this report, we do not have a PRC subsidiary. In the event that we acquire or form a PRC subsidiary in the future and such PRC subsidiary desires to declare and pay dividends to our Hong Kong subsidiary, our Hong Kong subsidiary will be required to apply for the tax resident certificate from the relevant Hong Kong tax authority. In such event, we plan to inform the investors through SEC filings, such as a current report on Form 8-K, prior to such actions. See “Risk Factors – Risk Factors Relating to Doing Business in Hong Kong and China.” set forth in the Annual Report.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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-Q including, without limitation, statements in the “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. However, whether actual results or developments will conform with the Company's expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including general economic, market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of the Company.
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. These statements appear in a number of places in this filing and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, and its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) trends affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations for its limited history; (ii) the Company's business and growth strategies; and (iii) the Company's financing plans. 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. For information identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the Risk Factors section of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on June 24, 2022.
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q 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. The Company assumes no obligations to update any such forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
NOTE –1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
King Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 8, 1995 under the name of ARXA International Energy, Inc. On June 4, 2001, the Company changed its name to King Resources, Inc. Currently, the Company through its subsidiaries, is engaged primarily in the development of smart power supply solutions and products in Hong Kong.
On December 15, 2021, the Company consummated the Share Exchange Transaction (the “Share Exchange”) among Powertech Management Limited (“PML”) and its shareholders. The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of PML from PML’s shareholders, in exchange for 2,835,820,896 shares of the issued and outstanding common stock. On January 25, 2022, the Company issued the shares to PML’s shareholders and completed the Share Exchange Transaction, PML became a 100% 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 was treated as a recapitalization of the Company.
Upon the Share Exchange between the Company and PML on December 15, 2021, the transaction is considered as a merger of entities under common control of Mr. FU Wah, being the common director and shareholder of both the Company and PML. 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 PML for all periods presented.

The Company and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.
NOTE – 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
| · | Basis of presentation |
These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
| 5 |
| · | Use of estimates and assumptions |
In preparing these unaudited condensed 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 periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates. If actual results significantly differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted. Significant estimates in the period include the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets and deferred tax valuation allowance.
| · | Basis of consolidation |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of KRFG and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
| · | Segment reporting |
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company operates in one reportable operating segment in Hong Kong.
| · | 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.
| · | Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced
amount and do not bear interest, which are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from completion of service. Credit
is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, the customer credit-worthiness and their payment history. Accounts
receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified
amount are reviewed individually for collectability. At the end of fiscal year, the Company specifically evaluates individual customer’s
financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables.
The Company will consider the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to
make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are
taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against
the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does
not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, there was
| · | Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value (net realizable value), cost being determined on a first-in-first-out method. Costs include material costs. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been any write-offs.
| · | Intangible assets |
Intangible assets consist of trademarks and trade
names. The intangible assets are stated at the purchase cost and are amortized based on their economic benefits expected to be realized
and assessed for impairment annually. There was
| 6 |
| · | Property and equipment |
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
| Expected useful lives | ||
| Office equipment | ||
| Furniture and fixtures | ||
| Computer equipment |
Expenditures for repair and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets have been retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
| · | Website development costs |
The Company accounts for its website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, Website Development Costs. These costs, if any, are included in intangible assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Upgrades or enhancements that add functionality are capitalized while other costs during the operating stage are expensed as incurred. The Company amortizes the capitalized website development costs over an estimated useful life of five years.
| · | 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 property and equipment owned and held 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. There has been
| · | Revenue recognition |
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”) using the full retrospective transition method. The Company's adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
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.
| 7 |
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 services revenue is derived from performing the research and development and technology development for the customers under fixed-price contracts. On fixed-price contracts that are expected not more than one year in duration, revenue is recognized pursuant to the proportional performance method based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred to the total estimated costs for the contract. The Company receives the periodic progress payments.
Costs incurred in connection with the research and development, are included in cost of revenue. Product development costs charged to billable projects are recorded as cost of revenue, which consist primarily of costs associated with personnel, supplies and materials.
| · | Government subsidy |
A government subsidy is not recognized until there
is reasonable assurance that: (a) the enterprise will comply with the conditions attached to the grant; and (b) the grant will be received.
When the Company receives government subsidies but the conditions attached to the grants have not been fulfilled, such government subsidies
are deferred and recorded under other payables and accrued expenses, and other long-term liability. The classification of short-term or
long-term liabilities is depended on the management’s expectation of when the conditions attached to the grant can be fulfilled.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received government subsidies of $
| · | 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 unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed 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.
The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
| · | 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 three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
| · | Net loss per share |
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
| 8 |
| · | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollar ("US$") and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company is operating in Hong Kong and maintains its books and record in its local currency, Hong Kong Dollars (“HKD”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of changes in stockholder’s equity.
Translation of amounts from HKD into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:
| June 30, 2022 | June 30, 2021 | |||||||
| Period-end HKD:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||
| Annualized average HKD:US$ exchange rate | ||||||||
| · | Comprehensive income |
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
| · | Leases |
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 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 assets 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 Topic 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.
The Company made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components. Each lease component and the related non-lease components are accounted for together as a single component.
| · | Retirement plan costs |
Contributions to retirement plans (which are defined contribution plans) are charged to general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operation as the related employee service is provided.
| 9 |
| · | Related parties |
The Company follows the ASC 850-10, Related Party for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and Income-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amount due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
| · | 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 unaudited condensed 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.
| 10 |
| · | Fair value of financial instruments |
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are described below:
| Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. | |
| Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. | |
| Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
| · | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
NOTE – 3 GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company incurred a recurring loss from prior
years and suffered from an accumulated deficit of $
The continuation of the Company as a going concern in the next twelve months is dependent upon the continued financial support from its stockholders. The Company is currently pursuing additional financing for its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
| 11 |
These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

Common Stock
On June 24, 2022, the Company issued shares of its common stock as Commitment Shares to Williamsburg Venture Holdings, LLC (the “Investor”), under an Equity Purchase Agreement dated June 21, 2022 (the “Agreement”), in consideration for the Investor’s execution and delivery of, and performance under the Agreement, which was deferred to be amortized over the financing period
As of June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company had a total of shares and shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

____________________
# Less than $0.001
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding is equal to basic weighted-average common shares, due to the Company’s net loss position. Hence, no common stock equivalents were included in the computation of diluted net loss per share since such inclusion would have been antidilutive.

The effective tax rate in the periods presented is the result of the mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that apply a broad range of income tax rate. The Company mainly operates in Hong Kong that is subject to taxes in the jurisdictions in which they operate, as follows:
United States of America
KRFG is registered in the State of Delaware and is subject to tax laws of the United States of America. The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Reform Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its income tax provision. The Company has not accrued or paid interest or penalties which were not material to its results of operations for the periods presented. Deferred tax asset is not provided for as the tax losses may not be able to carry forward after a change in substantial ownership of the Company.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no operating income in the U.S. tax regime.
BVI
Under the current BVI law, the Company is not subject to tax on income.
Hong Kong
The Company’s subsidiary operating in Hong Kong is subject to the 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 during the current period after deducting a tax concession for the tax year. The reconciliation of income tax rate to the effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

NOTE – 10 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
From time to time, the Company’s related companies and director advanced working capital funds to the Company for working capital purpose. Those advances are unsecured, non-interest bearing and had no fixed terms of repayment.
Apart from the transactions and balances detailed elsewhere in these accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has no other significant or material related party transactions during the periods presented.
NOTE – 11 CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
The Company is exposed to the following concentrations of risk:
(a) Major customers
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, there
was a customer exceeding 10% of the Company’s revenue. This customer is located in the Hong Kong, and accounted for
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, there were no single customers exceeding 10% of the Company’s revenue.
| 16 |
(b) Major vendors
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no single vendors exceeding 10% of the Company’s cost of revenue.
(c) Economic and political risk
The Company’s major operations are conducted in Hong Kong. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in Hong Kong, as well as the general state of Hong Kong’s economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
(d) Exchange rate risk
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady; therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of the fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of HKD converted to US$ on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in political and economic environments without notice.
(e) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s policy is to ensure that it has sufficient cash to meet its liabilities when they become due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. A key risk in managing liquidity is the degree of uncertainty in the cash flow projections. If future cash flows are fairly uncertain, the liquidity risk increases.

Our Organization Structure
King Resources, Inc. is a holding company, through its subsidiaries, engaged primarily in the development of smart power conversion solutions and products. We operate our business through our wholly owned subsidiary Powertech Corporation Limited (“Powertech Corp”). Powertech Corp commenced operation in Hong Kong on January 21, 2015 and sold our products primarily in Asia.
Our corporate organization chart is as below:
We currently provide solutions for other companies who are in the fields of developing high power, high voltage power supply and wireless charging technologies. We intend to launch the trial sales of our 65W AC-DC Type C PD chargers in the next quarter.
We are currently at the market introduction phase as we are preparing to launch our first batch of smart chargers to the market. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we reported a net loss of $181,959 and $51,984, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, we had current assets of $1,008,161 and current liabilities of $2,454,595. As of March 31, 2022, we had current assets of $91,269 and current liabilities of $1,887,152.

Our Business
We currently operate in Hong Kong, and we seek to expand distribution of our products to Asia Pacific (“APAC”), Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and USA markets as opportunities permit. Our products are currently manufactured in China on a purchase order basis. As our distribution increases, we expect to sub-contract our products elsewhere in Asia as pricing and logistics dictate. We have no intention of expanding operations or our physical presence into China at this time.
With the explosive growth of consumer electronic products, the demands of both the size and the weight of brilliant electronic products are increasingly high, including the power charger. However, the conventional power topology scheme and power components, such as MOSFET, Driver, magnetic core materials, etc., cannot meet the need to size down the development of power supplies. We believe our new proprietary power conservation technology will allow us to develop products meeting the demand of smaller sized, high power density products.
We are committed to the development of applications as well as research and development of smart new power conversion technologies. In recent years, with the significant increase in demand for small power chargers, energy efficiency and power density have become the focus of the markets. There is an increasing demand of modern electronic product consumers to push for DC/DC and AC/DC power chargers with more efficient energy consumption and higher power density. The main purpose of the power charger is to reduce the energy loss and increase the switching frequency of the converter, in order to manufacture a high-efficiency, energy-saving, and high-power density converter.
The range of operating frequency for most power chargers currently in the market is about 10-1000KHz. Our power chargers are designed for isolated converters with operating frequencies in the range of 1-30MHz. We have merged the core planar transformers with a power range of 5-240W, so the power charger frequency is about 500 times of the other power charger frequency in the market. In order to further improve the energy efficiency of the converter, we incorporated high-end power conversion technology with new material equipment into the design thereby improving energy efficiency by about 8-10% as compared to other similar devices.
Products and Services
Currently, all of our revenues are derived from solution services that we provide to other companies. We are currently preparing trial sales of our 65W AC-DC Type C PD chargers, USB-C multiport hub, USB-C mini hub, 65W power bank with 30,000mAh and other accessories through our online store and distribution channel.
We intend to offer three ultra-small power supply products as follows:
| Product | Status/Anticipated Launch Date | |
| 65W AC-DC Type C PD charger product | Product currently pre-sale on Company’s online store. Expect to distribute our products to the chain stores by early 2023 | |
|
45W AC-DC dual-port Type C PD charger model product 65W AC-DC dual-port Type C PD charger model product |
Anticipate to launch with mobile and tablet makers by early 2023 | |
| 120W AC-DC Multi-Charging outputs charger product | Anticipate to sale, distribute and launch with high power computer and notebook manufacturers by 2023. |
We expect these products will become one of the world’s smallest smart power supply products.
The following are the characteristics of our power chargers:
| · | Power AC-DC charger with high-end power conversion technology | |
| · | Uses ultra-high pulse width modulation frequency | |
| · | Intelligent voltage and current detection algorithm | |
| · | Digital power factor correction algorithm with high frequency switching program | |
| · | Energy efficiency meets US Class 6 AC-DC power charger standard | |

Future IoT Technology and Lifestyle Products – The Smart Home Ecosystem
We believe that the smart home ecosystem has become both in concept and reality a part of the common culture around the world. When homeowners or buyers consider renovation or new construction, many of them are considering the possibility of implementing smart home ecosystem devices to their homes due to increasing awareness of the importance of energy efficiency and lifestyle improvement of smart home products. According to International Data Corporation (“IDC”) Worldwide Quarterly Smart Home Device Tracker, in 2021, the global market for smart home device increased by 11.7% from 2020, with more than 895 million devices shipped. The Asia and the Pacific region is the second largest smart home device region in terms of shipment volume. It accounts for 31% of shipment and has a year-on-year growth rate of 10.8%. Our research indicates that more users are looking to purchase higher price smart devices such as smart TV and lighting fixtures in order to save energy and increase controllability and convenience. We believe that as 5G technology becomes more stable and popular throughout the world, more and more smart home appliances will become available in the market. We believe that smart home appliances with IoT and AI technology can improve our users’ living standards and lifestyles dramatically.
Smart home appliances are generally easily adopted and accessed through mobile phones or tablets via Apps. Users can easily manage multiple smart home appliances in just one device by their fingertip in the App: the status of all the appliances connected such as power levels, power consumed, air pollution, and room humidity will be displayed on their screen. Moreover, users will be able to control and manage every single appliance in large size homes with multiple floors by using the smart home ecosystem without the need access each individual appliance.
We established an IoT Technology and Lifestyle product team during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and are in the process of developing a series of IoT home automation products. We expect to initially distribute the IoT products in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia and hope to expand to other countries as opportunities permit.
Use of Capital Funds
On June 21, 2022, the Company has entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with Williamsburg Venture Holdings, LLC (“Investor”), a Nevada venture capital company, pursuant to which the Investor has committed to invest up to Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) in the Company’s common stock over a 36-month period. In light of the Company’s latest strategic plan to tackle the Smart Home segment with products enhanced with Technologies, Lifestyle, and Green elements, the Company will use the proceeds to establish a sustainable smart home ecosystem through in-house development of smart home appliances, target acquisition of smart home sector companies, and establish strategic partnerships with ESG promote companies.
Research and Development
During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, our research and development expenses are mainly incurred for the maintenance cost of our product development team. We expect to allocate our research and development funding towards product innovation of smart home appliances, and the recruitment on product development talents.
Sales and Marketing
We believe, the demand for smart home appliances will continue to increase especially as the technological improvements such as AI are integrated into products to enhance user experience. We expect to distribute our current and future power supply and IoT products as follows:
| · | Hong Kong – through our e-commerce channels, and leverage on our networks to distribute to prominent retailers, collaborate distribution channels with sales solution and promotion campaign. | |
| · | APAC – through third party authorized dealers and channel partners. | |
| · | USA/EMEA – through third party authorized distributors (which we expect to be wholesalers that sell to end retailers). |
| 21 |
Recently, we have begun a channel partnership arrangement to open up the Malaysian market. We believe this arrangement will enhance market recognition of our brand, and increase our market shares in the Southeast Asia region. In the near future, we intend to begin discussions with authorized dealers or distributors in other regions.

Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, subject to limitations as noted below, as of June 30, 2022, and during the period prior to and including the date of this report, were effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Inherent Limitations
Because of its inherent limitations, our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. 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 and procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
