REVERSE ACQUISITION

 

On January 18, 2016, the Company completed and closed a share exchange (the “Share Exchange”) under a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) of the same date among us, Vitaxel SDN BHD, a Malaysian corporation (“Vitaxel”), the shareholders of Vitaxel, Vitaxel Online Mall SBN BHD, a Malaysian corporation (“Vionmall”) and the shareholders of Vionmall pursuant to which Vitaxel and Vionmall each became wholly owned subsidiaries of ours. In the Share Exchange, all of the outstanding shares of Vitaxel and Vionmall were converted into shares of our Common Stock, as described in more detail below.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information article 10 of Regulation S-X.

 

This basis of accounting involves the application of accrual accounting and consequently, revenues and gains are recognized when earned, and expenses and losses are recognized when incurred. The Company’s financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars.

 

Fiscal year end is December 31.

 

 

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain 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.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

The functional currency of the Company is the Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR”) and reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollar “USD”). The financial statements of the Company are translated into USD using the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and average exchange rate for the year for income and expense items. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss as a component of shareholders' equity.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments, which are unrestricted from withdrawal or use, and which have original maturities of three months or less when purchased.

 

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an allowance for any potential uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. The Company generally does not require collateral from its customers. For the period ended March 31, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company did not write off any accounts receivable as bad debts.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). In accordance with ASC 820, the following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

 

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access.

 

Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 Inputs – Inputs based on prices or valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements.

 

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, none of the Company’s assets and liabilities were required to be reported at fair value on a recurring basis. Carrying values of non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivables, payables and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments. There were no changes in methods or assumptions during the periods presented.

 

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a weighted-average method, and not to exceed net realizable value. The Company writes down its inventory balances for obsolete amounts estimated on an individual basis for the finished goods and the raw material items with large amounts, and by a category basis for low value raw material items.

 

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation are calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Office equipment	10 years
Furniture and fixtures	10 years
Leasehold improvement	10 years

 

Revenue recognition

Product sales − The Company generally recognizes revenue upon delivery and when both the title and risk and rewards pass to the independent members or purchasers of the products. Product sales are recognized net of product returns, discounts and taxes. A reserve for product returns is accrued based on historical experience. There was no deferred revenue accrued as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

 

Membership fee − The Company recognizes the membership fee revenue over the term of the membership, which is 12 months. The revenue will not be recognized until the 10 days cooling-off period is expired. For the period ended March 31, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, all membership fee was waived by the Company for promotion purpose.

 

Loyalty program

The Company operates loyalty program which allows customer to accumulate redemption points when they purchase products from the Company. The redemption points can be used to purchase a selection of products at discounted price or redeem products.

 

The Company allocates consideration received from the sale of goods to the goods sold and the redemption points issued that are expected to be redeemed.

 

The consideration allocated to the redemptions points issued is measured at fair value of the redemption points. It is recognized as a liability (deferred revenue) in the statement of financial position and recognized as revenue when the points are redeemed, have expired or are no longer expected to be redeemed. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the number of points that have been redeemed, relative to the number expected to redeem.

 

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was no such deferred revenue recorded.

 

Income taxes

Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the combined financial statements.Net operating loss carry forwards and credits are applied using 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 more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics.

 

 

The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income taxes are classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes. The Company did not recognize any income tax due to uncertain tax positions or incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expense as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

 

Forward Stock split  

On January 27, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a 1333-for-1 forward stock split of our outstanding common stock, par value $0.000001 per share in the form of a dividend (the “Stock Split”) with a record date of February 8, 2016 (the “Record Date”). On February 22, 2016, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) notified us of its announcement of the payment date of the Stock Split as February 23, 2016 (the “Payment Date”). On the Payment Date, as a result of the Stock split, each holder of our common stock as of the Record Date received 1332 additional shares of our common stock for each one share owned, rounded up to the nearest whole share. All common stock share amounts referenced in this Quarterly Report give retroactive effect to the Stock Split.

 

Comprehensive loss

Comprehensive loss includes net loss and cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and is reported in the Combined Statement of Comprehensive Loss.

 

Loss per share

The loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the fiscal years. For the period ended March 31, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, there was no dilutive effect due to net loss.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In January 2015, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01 “Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items” (“ASU 2015-01”).

 

This Update eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items and the requirements in Subtopic 225-20 for reporting entities to separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions.

 

The Company believes that there were no other accounting standards recently issued that had or are expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

 

3.

GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $1,730,665 as of March 31, 2016. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. These combined financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects to finance operations primarily through cash flow from revenue and capital contributions from principal shareholders. In the event that we require additional funding to finance the growth of the Company’s current and expected future operations as well as to achieve our strategic objectives, our principal shareholders have indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to meet obligations as they become due and to obtain additional equity or alternative financing required to fund operations until sufficient sources of recurring revenues can be generated. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its plans described above or in attracting equity or alternative financing on acceptable terms, or if at all. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this- uncertainty.

Company Background

 

On January 18, 2016, we completed and closed a share exchange (the “Share Exchange”) under a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) of the same date among us, Vitaxel SDN BHD, a Malaysian corporation (“Vitaxel”), the shareholders of Vitaxel, Vitaxel Online Mall SBN BHD, a Malaysian corporation (“Vionmall”) and the shareholders of Vionmall pursuant to which Vitaxel and Vionmall each became wholly owned subsidiaries of ours.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, we exchanged 3,499,125,000 shares of our common stock for all of the outstanding capital stock of Vitaxel and exchanged 499,875,000 shares of our common stock for all of the outstanding capital stock of Vionmall with the result that both Vitaxel and Vionmall became wholly owned subsidiaries of ours.

 

Pursuant to the Share Exchange, we acquired the business of Vitaxel to engage in the direct selling of products and services utilizing a multi-level marketing model with an emphasis on travel, entertainment and lifestyle products and services and the business of Vionmall to develop online shopping platforms geared to Vitaxel and its members and the third party suppliers of products and services.

 

 

On January 6, 2016, the holder (the “Majority Stockholder”) of approximately 78.43% of the voting power of outstanding shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, approved by written consent, in accordance with Nevada law, Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Restated Articles”) which, among other things (i) changed of our name from “Albero, Corp.” to “Vitaxel Group Limited” (the “Name Change”) and (ii) increased our number of authorized shares of capital stock from 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share to 7,100,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 7,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.000001 per share and (b) 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.000001 per share (the “Share Increase”). The Restated Articles, including the Name Change and the Share Increase, and their execution and filing were authorized by the sole member of our Board of Directors on December 21, 2015.

 

On January 8, 2015, we filed the Restated Articles with the Nevada Secretary of State to effectuate, among other things, the Name Change and the Share Increase.

 

On January 27, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a 1333-for-1 forward stock split of our outstanding common stock, par value $0.000001 per share in the form of a dividend (the “Stock Split”) with a record date of February 8, 2016 (the “Record Date”). On February 22, 2016, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) notified us of its announcement of the payment date of the Stock Split as February 23, 2016 (the “Payment Date”). On the Payment Date, as a result of the Stock split, each holder of our common stock as of the Record Date received 1332 additional shares of our common stock for each one share owned, rounded up to the nearest whole share. All common stock share amounts referenced in this Quarterly Report give retroactive effect to the Stock Split.

 

On January 27, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a change of our fiscal year end from October 31 of each year to December 31 of each year. December 31 is also the fiscal year end for each of Vitaxel and Vionmall.

 

We are a global direct selling, multi-level marketing company offering travel, entertainment, lifestyle and other products and services principally through electronic commerce commonly referred to as e-commerce. Through Vionmall, which went live in January 2016 for Vitaxel members and April 2016 for general public, we employ online shopping web sites for retail sales direct to consumers. We do not develop or manufacture the products and services which we offer. At March 31, 2016, all of our operations, including sales transactions, were based and completed in Malaysia although we had members in 3 other Asian countries. More than half of our members reside in Malaysia and approximately 22%of our members reside in Singapore. We provide our members with training which includes prospecting and closing skills, plan orientation, back-office training, network management, personal and leadership development and team-building activities.

 

Unlike the traditional MLM business model where most of the business model concentrates on particular products and/or services, our business model allows our members to own a sub-domain through Vionmall where they can promote their own products and services (separate from our products and services). We believe that this model is the first of its kind in Asia.

 

 

We strive to differentiate ourselves through innovation in both our product and service offerings and our sales channels. Consumers can purchase our products and services either directly from our members or directly from our online platform. Our products and services are listed on our website and customers can easily purchase them online. Our members need not carry our products physically to their customers, they only need to promote our products through word of mouth or show prospective customers our list of products online through computers or smart-phones. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, our revenues were primarily attributable to the sale of Vitaxel product packages.

 

Our Vitaxel packages include product points (which are exchangeable for tour and travel products or travel kits). Since we are relatively new to the market, our initial strategy has been to promote our brand awareness by encouraging more people to become members. In furtherance thereof, to date all membership fees have been waived. Persons that purchase our product packages will automatically become members.

 

In furtherance of our membership benefits program, on November 1, 2015 Vitaxel entered into a Travel Agency Services Contract (the “Contract”) with Ho Wah Genting Holiday SDN BHD (“HWGH”), a travel agency specializing in providing tour packages, hotel bookings, arranging transportation and event ticket services. Pursuant thereto, HWGH provides services to Vitaxel’s members. The Contract has a term of 2 years and continues automatically for additional one year periods. After the first year, either party may terminate the Contract by providing the other party with 2 months’ advance notice of termination. Lim Chun Hoo, a director of HWGH is the brother of Lim Wee Kiat, our Chairman and Secretary and the son of Dato Lim Hui Boon, our President. Lim Wee Kiat is also an executive director of Ho Wah Genting Berhad, a shareholder of HWGH.

 

Our initial Vitaxel products have not generated material demand. This has resulted in marginal purchases of our existing Vitaxel products. However, following our research and surveys conducted on the preferences of our members, we have re-packaged and expanded our product packages and the method of selling these products to our members and our customers. This strategy leads to the formation of Vionmall.

 

 With the introduction of Vionmall, our revenue component has been divided into three categories:

 

a.

Vitaxel Product packages

b.

Membership fees

c.

Sales from our online Vionmall products

 

We believe that the Malaysian and other Asian direct selling markets hold significant potential. Our results, as reported in US dollars will be impacted by foreign currency fluctuations as well as global economic, political, demographic and business trends and conditions.

 

To create brand awareness and to keep our members fully informed as to our products and services, and policies and procedures, we designate certain members to be team leaders. Team leaders promote our membership requirements and products and services through word of mouth, home parties, private previews and training. As of March 31, 2016, we had approximately 120 team leaders, approximately 69 of which were located in Malaysia. We expect to engage at least 10-20 team leaders in each country in which we offer and sell our products and services. Our team leaders are independent contractors and do not receive salaries. They work on a commission basis tied to the revenue generated from product sales. The team leaders promote our products via the methods referenced above. Apart from this, they are required to assist our management to conduct surveys and research on our prospective customers and members needs and behaviors. To do this, the team leaders have meetings and discussions among themselves from time to time. Our obligation to the team leaders is to provide support, inform and advise as to the availability of new products, make payment (commission) on time and ensure that the team leaders understand our objective and mission so that they provide the correct message to our members and customers.

 

 

Our business is subject to various laws and regulations globally, particularly with respect to our direct selling business models and our product and service categories.

 

We acquire the products and services which we offer and sell from third parties. Although, we initially intend to primarily offer and sell products related to travel, entertainment and lifestyle, we are not limited to those areas and may sell unrelated products and services as long as these products and services will benefit our members and customers in a manner consistent with our objectives and mission.

 

As of March 31, 2016, Vitaxel had approximately 4,714 members, with approximately 3,510 members in Malaysia and approximately 954 members in Singapore. Vitaxel’s members include approximately 463 Distributors, 1,853 Supervisors, 30 Managers, 38 Directors, 1,988 Senior Directors, 157 Global Directors, 90 Sapphire Global Directors, 65 Ruby Global Directors, 14 Emerald Global Directors, 6 Diamond Global Directors and 10 Black Diamond Global Directors.

 

People become members for a number of reasons. Some join simply to receive a wholesale price on products and services that they and their families can enjoy. Some join to earn part-time money, wanting to give direct sales a try, whereas others are drawn to us because they can be their own boss and can earn rewards on their own skills and hard work. In addition to discounted prices, members can earn income from several sources. Members may earn income by selling our products and services and their own products and services. The allocation of proceeds from the sales of members’ products and services is similar to the allocation process for independent suppliers of products and services. Suppliers determine the minimum amount they wish to receive, the retail price to consumers is then negotiated between us and the supplier and we retain the difference as profit. Also, members who sponsor other members may earn commissions and bonuses based upon their sponsored members’ performance.

 

As of March 31, 2016, we have expanded our network member base into approximately 16 Asian countries. While sales within our local markets may fluctuate due to economic, market and regulatory conditions, competitive pressures, political and social instability or for Company-specific reasons, we believe that our geographic diversity and intended further geographic diversity mitigates and will continue to mitigate our exposure to any one particular market.

 

We intend to continue to engage team leaders within each country in Asia in which we offer and sell our products to lead and promote our products. Since we have already established our name in certain of the Asian counties, we will continue to expand in those countries by providing more benefits to the team leaders, more attractive products through our Vionmall portal, further training and motivation talks, better information technology structure and enhance support systems.

 

To become a member, a person must purchase a member package. Member packages include products and points that carry a value that approximates the package price. The packages do not come with a membership fees because membership fees are exempted for the first year (that is when members purchase the package, membership fees are waived for the first 12 months). We only collect the membership fees from the second year onwards. Each member package is available in English and Chinese and typically includes booklets describing us, our compensation plan and rules of member conduct, various training and promotional materials, member applications and a product and services catalog. The price of a member package varies by package type and provides a low cost entry for incoming members.

 

 

Results of Operations

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Vitaxel Group Limited for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related notes thereto.

 

Revenue

 

We recognized $860,240 and $534,917 revenue for the period ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

The increase of sales is due to more customers in current period.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales for the period ended March 31, 2016 was $555,088, compared to $420,330 for the period ended March 31, 2015.

 

The increase is comparable to the increase of revenue.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit for the period ended March 31, 2016 was $305,152, compared to $114,587 for the period ended March 31, 2015.

 

Operating Expenses

 

For the period ended March 31, 2016, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $358,621, composed of selling expenses of $867 and general and administrative expenses totaling $357,754. While, for the period ended March 31, 2015, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $111,191, which was composed of selling expenses of $5,686 and general and administrative expenses totaling $105,505. Despite the decrease of $4,819, or 85% for the selling expenses, the increase of $252,249, or 239%, caused total operating expenses to increase by $247,430, or 223%.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2016, we had a cash balance of $767,241. During the period ended March 31, 2016, net cash generated from operating activities totaled $433,882. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $93,048. Net cash generated from financing activities during the year totaled $228,438. The resulting change in cash for the period was an increase of $463,447, which was primarily due to cash in from accruals and other payables, commission payables, amount due to a related party and amount due to a director

 

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, net cash generated from operating activities totaled $146,803. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $7,039. Net cash repaid in financing activities during the year totaled $96,745. The resulting change in cash for the period was an increase of $36,491, which was primarily due to cash in from accruals and other payables, netting off by the repayment to the stockholder and the director.

 

As of March 31, 2016, we had current liabilities of $2,199,188, which was composed of commission payables of $661,948, accrued liabilities of $1,033,818, amount due to a director of $25,641 tax payable of $41,884 and amount due to a related party of $435,897.

 

As of December 31, 2015, we had current liabilities of $1,523,484, which was composed of amounts due to a related party of $233,100, commission payables of $537,655, tax payable of $17,586 and accruals and other payables of $735,143.

 

We had net liabilities of $1,142,188 and $1,039,331 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

 

The Company has incurred losses since its inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $1,730,665 as of March 31, 2016, and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These risk factors include, but are not limited to:

 

•

our ability to raise additional funding;

•

the results of our proposed operations.

 

Going Concern Consideration

 

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We have incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of approximately $1,730,665 as of March 31, 2016 and further losses are anticipated in the development of our business raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and/or private placement of common stock. These financials do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect our liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

There are no material changes from the critical accounting policies set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our December 31, 2015 financial statements included in our Amendment No. 1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 13, 2016. Please refer to that document for disclosures regarding the critical accounting policies related to our business.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or 1934 Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. At the end of the quarter ended March 31, 2015 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the 1934 Act. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that as of March 31, 2016 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. 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. 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, but are not limited to, 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 control. The design of any system of controls also is 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, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

In addition, we are not aware of any known litigation or liabilities involving the operators of our properties that could affect our operations. Furthermore, as of the date of this Quarterly Report, our management is not aware of any proceedings to which any of our directors, officers, or affiliates, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate, or security holder is a party adverse to our company or has a material interest adverse to us.
