ASAP EXPO, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.

The balance sheets and certain comparative information as of December 31, 2014 are derived from the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 Annual Financial Statements”), included in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2014 Annual Financial Statements.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The company has adopted Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220); Presentation of Comprehensive Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 comprehensive income equaled net income, as the company had no other comprehensive income. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accumulated other comprehensive income was $0.
 

GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
 
At March 31, 2015, the Company has an accumulated stockholders' deficit of $840,030, which mainly resulted from the accumulated deficit of its former parent company that was transferred to the Company upon its spin-off from the parent company, and a lack of profitable operating history. The Company hopes to increase revenues from its real estate business and financial advisory services business. In the absence of significant increases in revenues, the Company intends to fund operations through additional debt and equity financing arrangements. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
 
The Company's success is dependent upon numerous items, certain of which are the successful growth of revenues from its services and its ability to obtain new customers in order to achieve levels of revenues adequate to support the Company's current and future cost structure, for which there is no assurance. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently encountered in establishing and maintaining profitable operations. These include, but are not limited to, competition, the need to develop customer support capabilities and market expertise, technical difficulties, market acceptance and sales and marketing. The failure of the Company to meet any of these conditions could have a materially adverse effect on the Company and may force the Company to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given that the Company can achieve or maintain profitable operations.

The Company believes it will have adequate cash to sustain operations until it achieves sustained profitability. However, until the Company has a history of maintaining revenue levels sufficient to support its operations and repay its working capital deficit, the Company may require additional financing. Sources of financing could include capital infusions, additional equity financing or debt offerings. There can be no assurance that funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that such fund, if raised, would enable the Company to achieve or sustain profitable operations.
 
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, prepaid expenses and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and due to/from affiliated company.  The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to the short term maturity of these instruments.

Fair Value Measurements
 
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company’s adoption of fair value measurements and disclosures did not have a material impact on the financial statements and financial statement disclosures.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the GAAP 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to ASC 605.
 
Revenues are mainly consulting fees. The consulting fees are recognized when earned.  Consulting fees from investment banking services and real estate advisory services that are subject to refund are recorded as deferred revenue until the project is completed and the fees are no longer refundable.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net of operating loss carry forwards and credits, by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
 
EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
A basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. Dilutive earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
 In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.  The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures).  Early adoption is not permitted.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (ASU 2014-15).  The guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management's plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On January 1, 2011, the Company obtained a convertible note from Frank Yuan, the Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and his family which provides for borrowings up to a maximum of $1,800,000 and is due on demand. The note carries an interest rate of 6.0% per annum. On December 31, 2014, the convertible note was amended to waive the right of conversion and will be used as line of credit.
 
The balance of note payable as of March 31, 2015 was $251,785; the accrued interest on the note was $275,325 which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The balance of convertible note as of December 31, 2014 was $389,804 and the accrued interest on the note was $271,075.
 
 
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

The income taxes provision for three months ended March 31, 2015 consists of current federal tax of $47,479.

As of March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had Federal net tax operating loss carry forwards of $0 and $8,712 and state net tax operating loss carry forwards of $0 and $329,233 available to offset future taxable income. The Company had reserved a full deferred tax assets valuation allowance so its balance sheet reported no deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 on the basis of the Company’s history of losses that more likely than not the Company will not realize operating loss carry forwards in the foreseeable future.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets at March 31, 2015 and 2014 are presented below:

Since the Company’s primary business is based upon potential transactions in real estate, the Company is subject to variance in revenues due to investors sentiment towards real estate.

We believe our services revenue is typically seasonal. Historically, during normal economic conditions, this seasonality has caused revenue, operating income, net income and cash flows from operating activities to be lower in the first six months of the year and higher in the second half of the year. We believe the concentration of earnings and cash flows in the last six months of the year has historically been due to an industry-wide focus of clients to complete transactions towards the end of the calendar year. However, this seasonality did not occur in 2007 or 2008 during the disruptions facing all global capital markets, and in particular the U.S. commercial real estate markets, and this historical pattern of seasonality may or may not continue.

Substantially all of our revenues are in the form of consulting fees collected from our clients, usually negotiated on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The company’s consulting fees primarily consist of revenue derived from transaction commission received from acquisition advisory. The company earns the consulting fees by sourcing the deal, underwriting financials, coordinating due diligence on all contracts, recommending lenders, hiring third party property management companies, and negotiating franchise agreements. Another revenue source for the company includes asset management fees, which consist of supervision of daily, weekly, and monthly operating results of the hotel, review of capital expenditure requests, communication with lenders, negotiating personal and real property tax assessments, and most importantly, oversight on brand relations.

The Company’s clients include concentration of 3 main clients. Our concentration of clients does provide a risk for revenue growth. The Company has established strong relationships with our clients. Our business and client relationships, and our culture and philosophy are firmly centered on putting the clients’ interests first. We have been building strong reputation in the hospitality industry which is bringing several new potential clients. We expect to have steady revenue stream from our 3 major clients while building new client base for future revenue growth. We believe that our product offerings, asset management services, client diversification, expertise in a property types and national platform have the potential to create a sustainable revenue stream within the U.S. commercial real estate sector.
 
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company earned consulting fee of $451,418, as compared to consulting fee of $612,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in consulting fee is mainly because the Company closed fewer hotel acquisition deals in the quarter ended March 31, 2015 (1 versus 2).
 
Cost of Sales

In the course of providing real estate advisory services and asset management services, the Company pays consulting fees for finding properties and other services that facilitate the closing of deals.  

Cost of sales consisting mainly consulting expense, is primarily the result of the commissions and other incentive compensation incurred directly related to acquisition advisory services. Therefore, the fluctuation in revenue will directly impact the cost of sales.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred consulting expense of $236,000 and $291,000, respectively for providing advisory services in real estate acquisition. The lower consulting expense in the first quarter of 2015 was mainly due to fewer hotel acquisition deals.

Operating Expenses
 
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist primarily of administrative personnel costs, facilities expenses, and professional fee expenses.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, general and administrative expenses decreased $114,428 or 61.5% to $71,525 compared to $185,953 for the same period last year. The decrease in the first quarter of 2015 was mainly due to lower personnel costs as the Company removed certain officer from payroll.
 
Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased to $4,250 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $6,861 for the same period last year. This decrease was due to the lower average note payable balances.
 
Net Income

The Company recorded a net income of $92,164 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to a net income of $77,360 for the same period last year. The increase in net income was mainly due to the lower G&A expenses, lower interest expense and lower income tax provision, offset by lower gross profit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's working capital deficit was $596,331 at March 31, 2015, as compared to a working capital deficit of $540,957 at December 31, 2014. During the next twelve months, ASAP Expo will focus on its real estate transactions to generate additional revenue. With the net revenue from its services, and continuing support from its major shareholders to provide a note payable, management believes ASAP Expo will have enough net working capital to sustain its business for another 12 months.
 
The Company has a convertible note (the "Yuan Note") from Frank Yuan and his family, which is due on demand, and provides for borrowings up to a maximum total of $1,800,000. On December 31, 2014, the convertible note was amended to waive the right of conversion and will be used as line of credit The Yuan Note carries an interest rate of 6.0% per annum. The total balance as of March 31, 2015 was $251,785, and the accrued interest was $275,325.
 
The forecast of the period of time through which ASAP Expo’s financial resources will be adequate to support its operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties. ASAP Expo’s actual funding requirements may differ materially as a result of a number of factors, including unknown expenses associated with the cost of providing real estate advisory, investment banking, and management consulting services.
 
The Company has no commitments to make capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
 
Over the next two to five years, The Company plans to utilize a combination of internally generated funds from operations and potential debt and equity financing to fund its long-term growth.
 
 
The Report of the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on our December 31, 2014 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph stating that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated stockholders' deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
At the present time, The Company has received no commitments for the funds required for its planned capital investments.  Obtaining those funds, if the Company can do so, will require that it issues substantial amounts of equity securities or incur significant debts.  The Company believes that the expected return on those investments will justify the cost.  However, the Company’s plan, if accomplished, will significantly increase the risks to its liquidity.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the our financial statements and the accompanying notes. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported on our balance sheet and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, stock based compensation and the valuation of deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements:
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, "Revenue Recognition" outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to ASC 605.   
 
Revenues are mainly consulting fees. The Consulting fees are recognized when earned.  Consulting fees subject to refund are recorded as deferred revenue until the project is completed and the fees are no longer refundable. 

Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, "Income Taxes." Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Management provides a valuation allowance for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be recovered.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.  The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures).  Early adoption is not permitted.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (ASU 2014-15).  The guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management's plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.  Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control over financial reporting and, as such, are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management.  Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is expressed at the level of reasonable assurance that the control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met (see the section below in this Item 3 entitled Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls).
 
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the period covered by this Report, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
 
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. 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, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
