PHI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

PHI Group, Inc. (formerly Providential Holdings, Inc.), ("PHI") a Nevada corporation established in June 8, 1982, is primarily focused on energy and natural resources and engaged in real estate and hospitality development, and merger and acquisition advisory services through its subsidiaries. The Company acquires and consolidates coal deposits and energy-related assets, partners with local companies in Southeast Asia to develop power plants, collaborates with a U.S. company to furnish advanced clean coal combustion technology to coal-fired plants, arranges capital for energy-related projects, and provides financial consultancy and M&A advisory services to U.S. and foreign companies.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PHI Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries, Providential Securities, Inc., PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., Provimex, Inc., PHI Energy Corporation (formerly Providential Energy Corporation), Touchlink Communications, PHI Gold Corporation (formerly PHI Mining Group), Providential Vietnam Ltd., and PhiLand Ranch Limited, collectively referred to as the "Company". All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Providential Securities, Inc., Provimex, Inc., PHI Energy Corporation, and Touchlink Communications are inactive.

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2011. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal reoccurring accruals have been made to the financial statements. The results of operation for the six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company's securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.

Each investment in marketable securities represents less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding common stock and stock equivalents of the investee, and each security is quoted on either the “Pink Sheets” or the OTC Bulletin Board. As such, each investment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115.

Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder's equity. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in earnings based upon the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. On December 30, 2011, the marketable securities have been recorded at $894,650 based upon the fair value of the marketable securities. (Note 5)

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, and accounts payable.

As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is primarily attributed to the short maturities of these instruments.

PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENTS

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets from three to five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

DERIVATIVES

 Derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 13 (previously Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104).  The Company recognizes consulting and advisory fee revenues when the transaction is completed and the service fees are earned.   Expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is incurred. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued a new professional standard in June of 2009 which resulted in a major restructuring of U.S. accounting and reporting standards. The new professional standard, issued as ASC 105 ("ASC I 05"), establishes the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification or ASC") as the source of authoritative accounting principles ("GAAP") recognized by the FASB. The principles embodied in the Codification are to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants. Existing GAAP was not intended to be changed as a result of the Codification, and accordingly the change did not impact the financial statements of the Company.

For the year ending December 31, 2011, various Accounting Standard Updates ("ASU") issued by the FASB were either newly issued or had effective implementation dates that would require their provisions to be reflected in the financial statements for the year then ended. The Company has reviewed the following ASU releases to determine relevance to the Company's operations:

 

ASU No.

 

Title Effective Date
2011-12

Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05

 

After December 15, 2011
2011-11

Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

 

After January 01, 2013
2011-10

Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate—a Scope Clarification (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)

 

After December 15, 2013
2011-09

Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan

 

After December 15, 2012
2011-08 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment After December 15, 2011

 

The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company's financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the pronouncement has either limited or no application to the Company and, in all cases, implementation would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole.

 

NOTE 2 – NASD EXAMINATION AND DISCONTINUANCE OF PROVIDENTIAL SECURITIES, INC.

 

After the completion of a routine audit of Providential Securities, Inc. ("Providential") in July and August 2000, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. alleged that Providential violated certain provisions of the NASD's Conduct Rules 2120, 2330, 2110 and 3010, and Rules 15c2-4, 10b-5, 10b-9 and 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Providential Securities, Inc. and Henry Fahman voluntarily submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent ("AWC",), which was accepted by NASD Regulation, Inc. on October 27, 2000.

 

Providential Securities, Inc. was censured, fined $115,000.00 and required to offer rescission to those public customers who participated in the Providential Private Placement.  In addition, Henry Fahman was banned, in all capacities, from associating with any NASD member. Based upon the above-mentioned circumstances, Providential Securities, Inc. withdrew its membership from the NASD in October 2000 and ceased its securities brokerage operation.  The fine of $115,000 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The Company has offered all Preferred Stock holders rescission on their investment.  During the year ended June 30, 2004, $235,000 from the amount due to Preferred Stock Holders plus $105,600 in related dividends payable totaling $340,600 was paid either in cash or with the issuance of common stock. The balance of unredeemed preferred shares and the related interest has been included in current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated financial statements (Note 12).

NOTE 5 MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

The Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value.  All of the securities are comprised of shares of common stock of the investee.  Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.

Each investment in marketable securities represents less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding common stock and stock equivalents of the investee, and each security is nationally quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") or the Pink Sheets.  As such, each investment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115.

Marketable securities classified as available for sale consisted of 1,746,500 shares of Vietnam Mining Corporation, a public company traded on the OTC Markets (Pinksheet: VNMC) that were earned for consulting services rendered.

NOTE 8 – CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

 

SFAS No. 34 “Capitalization of Interest” establishes the standards for capitalizing interest cost as part of the historical cost of acquiring certain assets. To qualify for interest capitalization, assets must require a period of time to get them ready for their intended use.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the external disclosures of the Company including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed by us for reasonableness and conservatism on a consistent basis throughout the Company. Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include acquisitions, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, recoverability of deferred tax and the valuation of shares issued for services. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

The recoverability of long-lived assets requires considerable judgment and is evaluated on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. As it relates to definite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules as required by SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets to Be Disposed Of” as amended by SFAS No. 144, which also requires significant judgment and assumptions related to the expected future cash flows attributable to the intangible asset. The impact of modifying any of these assumptions can have a significant impact on the estimate of fair value and, thus, the recoverability of the asset.

Income Taxes

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. As of December 31, 2011, we estimated the allowance on net deferred tax assets to be one hundred percent of the net deferred tax assets.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, our financial condition at December 31, 2011 and factors that we believe could affect our future financial condition and results of operations. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The following discussion about PHI Group Inc.’s market risk involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk

Some of our operations are conducted in Vietnam using Vietnamese Dong, which is the official currency of Vietnam. The effect of the fluctuations of exchange rates is considered minimal to our business operations.

Interest Rate Risk

We do not have significant interest rate risk, as most of our debt obligations are primarily short-term in nature to individuals, with fixed interest rates.

Valuation of Securities Risk

Since majority of our income is paid with the marketable securities, the value of our assets may fluctuate significantly depending on the market value of the securities we hold.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure and Procedures

As of December 31, 2011, the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information that the Company must disclose in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Exchange Act”, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during this fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.    

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting at PHI Group. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by or under the supervision of our chief executive officer/acting chief financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, transactions and dispositions of our assets, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and board of directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of PHI Group's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").

In connection with the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our management team attempted to identify any "material weakness" in our internal control environment. We defined "material weakness" as 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. We defined "significant deficiency" as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.

We identified on a preliminary basis the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

• Ineffective control over the financial statements closing process;

• Insufficient personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience with the Company and/or industry, and training in the application of GAAP;

• Lack of segregation of duties; and

• Inadequate monitoring of non-routine and non-systematic transactions.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Investment in our securities is subject to various risks, including risks and uncertainties inherent in our business. The following sets forth factors related to our business, operations, financial position or future financial performance or cash flows which could cause an investment in our securities to decline and result in a loss.

General Risks Related to Our Business

Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.

Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management and founder. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.

Our service strategy in merger and acquisition involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.

The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management's attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company's ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and operating results.

Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:

  • failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results;
  • diversion of management’s attention;
  • failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business;
  • additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both;
  • the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and
  • the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities.

These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.

Our businesses are currently focused in Vietnam, and any adverse change to the economy or business environment in Vietnam could significantly affect our operations, which would lead to lower revenues and reduced profitability.

Our operations are currently concentrated in Vietnam. Because of this concentration in a specific geographic location, we are susceptible to fluctuations in our business caused by adverse economic or other conditions in this region, including stock market fluctuation. A stagnant or depressed economy in Vietnam generally, or in any of the other markets that we serve, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to our Securities

Insiders have substantial control over the company, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control, even if our other stockholders wanted such a change to occur.

Our executive officers/directors and principal stockholders who hold 5% or more of the outstanding common stock owned as of September 30, 2011, in the aggregate, approximately 28% of our outstanding common stock. These stockholders will be able to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur. 

In addition, the stock market often experiences significant price fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stock is traded. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our shares.

The price at which investors purchase shares of our common stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. Investors may be unable to sell their shares of common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.

We do not meet the requirements for our stock to be quoted on NASDAQ, the American Stock Exchange or any other senior exchange, the tradability in our securities will be limited under the penny stock regulations.   

Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if the price of our securities on the OTCQB is below $5.00 per share, our securities are within the definition of a "penny stock." As a result, it is possible that our securities may be subject to the "penny stock" rules and regulations. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission's regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock.

These regulations require broker-dealers to:

*Make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser; *Receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction; and *Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.

These requirements may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability to resell our securities. 

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us.  

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded companies to obtain.
