First Asia Holdings Limited

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements

March 31, 2016 (unaudited)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of First Asia Holdings Limited (the "Company") are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include certain disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with such principles.


In preparing these interim financial statements, management was required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates and the operating results for the interim period presented is not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.


2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


(a) Principles of consolidation


In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management was required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates and the operating results for the interim period presented is not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year/period.


For the quarter ended and as of March 31, 2016, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the following subsidiaries:


A) Wholly-owned subsidiaries


a) Hong Kong Companies


1.

First Asia Finance Limited

2.

Hung Lee Development Limited

3.

First Asia Tower Limited (Formerly known as Galaxy Garment Limited)

4.

Giant Management Corporation Limited


b) Marshall Islands Companies


1.

Vagas Lane Limited

2.

Paris Sky Limited


c) Cayman Islands Company


1.  Real Estate and Finance Fund (Formerly Hotel Fund Limited)





7






B) Non-wholly-owned subsidiary (Hong Kong Company)


1.

First Asia Estate Limited (60% owned)


All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.


(b) Economic and Political Risk


All the Company’s 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.


The Company’s major operations in Hong Kong are subject to considerations and significant risks typically associated with economies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.


(c)

Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


(d)

Accounts Receivable


Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. No bad debt was incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.


(e)

Loans receivables


Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Origination and/or closing fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are accreted into income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties and unamortized loan origination, closing and commitment fees are recorded as income. Prepayment premiums are recorded on loans when received.


For loans with contractual payment-in-kind interest or dividends, which represent contractual interest/dividends accrued and added to the loan balance or liquidation preference


An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. No bad debt was incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.


(f)

Property, Plant and Equipment


Property, Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the statement of operations as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. The cost and the related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.





8






(g)

Depreciation and Amortization


The Company provides for depreciation of property, plant and equipment principally by use of the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Property, Plant and Equipment are depreciated over the following estimated useful lives:


Leasehold land and building

50 years

Leasehold improvement

5 years

        

Office equipment               

4 years

Computer equipment

4 years


(h)

Accounting for the Impairment of Goodwill


ASC 350 (“Intangibles-Goodwill and Other”) requires that goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives not be amortized but, instead, tested at least annually for impairment. Management uses a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires that certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and future profitability of acquired businesses to assess the need for an impairment charge. The Company has elected the fourth quarter to complete its annual goodwill impairment test.


The book values of goodwill are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently, if facts and circumstances indicate the need. Fair value measurement techniques, such as the discounted cash flow methodology, are utilized to assess potential impairments. The testing is performed at the reporting unit level, which can be either an operating segment or one level below operating segment. In the discounted cash flow method, the Company discounts forecasted performance plans to their present value. The discount rate utilized is the weighted average cost of capital for the reporting unit, calculated as the opportunity cost to all capital providers weighted by their relative contribution to the reporting unit’s total capital and the risk associated with the cash flows and the timing of the cash flows. Comparison methods (e.g., peer comparables) and other estimation techniques are used to verify the reasonableness of the fair values derived from the discounted cash flow assessments.


The impairment test is performed in two stages. If the first stage does not indicate that the carrying values of the reporting units exceed the fair values, the second stage is not required. When the first stage indicates potential impairment, the company has to complete the second stage of the impairment test and compare the implied fair value of the reporting units’ goodwill to the corresponding carrying value of goodwill.

Subsequent to the annual impairment test, the Company undertook a review of its current strategy and determined that there was both a decrease in its future projected income based on the current environment and a need for a new management strategy. For the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended September 30, 2015, there was no impairment charge recognized.


(i) Income Tax


The Company has adopted the provisions of statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which incorporates the use of the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. The Company allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.





9






The Company's estimated income tax expense for quarter ended March 31, 2016 was zero.


(j) Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts of the Company's cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. Term debt secured by various properties have interest rates attached to them commensurate with the finance market at the time and management believes approximate fair values in the short as well as the long term. It is currently not practicable to estimate the fair value of the other debt obligations because these note agreements contain unique terms, conditions, covenants and restrictions which were negotiated at arm's length with the Company's lenders, and there is no readily determinable similar instrument on which to base an estimate of fair value. Accordingly, no computation or adjustment to fair value has been determined.


(k) Valuation of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company uses an estimate of undiscounted future net cash flows of the assets over the remaining useful lives in determining whether the carrying value of the assets is recoverable. If the carrying values of the assets exceed the expected future cash flows of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying values of the assets and their estimated fair values.


Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent from other groups of assets. The evaluation of long-lived assets requires the Company to use estimates of future cash flows. However, actual cash flows may differ from the estimated future cash flows used in these impairment tests. As of March 31, 2016 management does not believe any of the Company’s assets were impaired.


(l)

Revenue Recognition


1) Revenue from invoiced value of goods sold is recognized upon the delivery of goods to customers. Pursuant to the guidance of ASC Topic 605 and ASC Topic 36, revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

 


a)

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,

b)

Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered,

c)

The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and

d)

Collectibility is reasonably assured.


2) Interest income on loans is recognized using the effective interest method.

3) Service income is recognized when the services are rendered.

4) License fee income is recognized in accordance with the license terms.


(m)

Earnings Per Share


Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings 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 shares had been




10






issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  As of March 31, 2016, there was no common share equivalents outstanding.


(n)

Use of Estimates


The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those results.


Significant estimates and assumptions include allocating purchase consideration issued in business combinations and valuing equity securities issued in financing transactions and the carrying amounts of intangible assets. Certain estimates, including accounts receivable and the carrying amounts of intangible assets (including present value of future cash flow estimates) could be affected by external conditions including those unique to our industry and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on our estimates that could cause actual results to differ from our estimates.

 

We re-evaluate all of our accounting estimates at least quarterly based on these conditions and record adjustments, when necessary.


(o)

 Retirement Benefits


Hong Kong mandates companies to operate a mandatory provident fund scheme, which is available to all employees in Hong Kong. Both the Company and the employees are required to contribute 5% per month of the employees’ relevant income.  Contributions from the Company are 100% vested in the employees as soon as they are paid to the scheme.  Contributions to the scheme are expensed in the statement of operations as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.  The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Company and managed by independent professional fund managers.  The Company provides no other retirement benefits to its employees.


(p)

Comprehensive Income


Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements.  Comprehensive income includes net income and the foreign currency translation gain, net of tax.


(q) Foreign Currency Translation


Our reporting currency is the Canadian dollar.  The functional currency of the Company’s operating business based in Hong Kong is Hong Kong dollar. For our subsidiaries whose functional currencies are Hong Kong dollar, results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect as of the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the functional currency financial statements into Canadian dollars are included in comprehensive income. 

 




11






Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods. All of our revenue transactions are transacted in the functional currency. We have not entered into any material transactions that are either originated, or to be settled, in currencies other than Hong Kong dollar. Accordingly, transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations.

 

Period end exchange rates used to translate assets and liabilities and average exchange rates used to translate results of operations in each of the reporting periods are as follows:

 

 

 

Quarter ended 
 March 31, 2016

 

Quarter ended

Related Parties


Parties are considered to be related to the company if the company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party, or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa; or where the company and the party are subject to common control or common significance. Related parties may be individuals (being members of key management personnel, significant shareholders and/or their close family members) or other entities which are under the significant influence of related parties of the company where those parties are individuals, and post-employment benefit plans which are for the benefits of employees of the company or of any entity that is a related party of the company.


(s)

Operating leases


Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the lesser are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.


3.  GOING CONCERN


These interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assume that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and accordingly will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.


4.  CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND ANALYSIS OF LOANS RECEIVABLES


The Company has no significant off-balance sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign currency hedging arrangements. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of loans receivable. Concentration of credit risk with respect to loans receivable is limited.  A majority of the loans receivable are sufficiently secured by collaterals. In addition, the Company regularly monitors the creditworthiness of these borrowers and believes that it has adequately provided for exposure to potential credit losses. No bad debt was incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Results of Operations


The following discussion and analysis provide information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operation and financial condition for the fiscal period ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the fiscal period ended March 31, 2015.  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and related Notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  All figures herein are stated in Canadian dollars.


Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015.


Revenues.  During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had operating revenues of CAD$953,551, as compared to revenues of CAD$897,532  for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of CAD$56,019, or approximately 6%. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to the increase in total loan receivable but partially offset by the decrease of effective interest rate charged as more mortgage loans were granted. Mortgage loans generally bear much lower interest rates than unsecured personal loans.


Costs of Revenue.  The revenue represent interest income and service fee income from the money lending business of First Asia Finance Limited and the licence fee income from First Asia Tower Limited. The corresponding direct cost was considered to be insignificant.


Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were CAD$862,010. Of this, CAD$21,482 was allocated to Selling and Distribution, CAD$840,528 was allocated to General and Administrative Expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were CAD$788,717. Of this, CAD$30,118 was allocated to Selling and Distribution, CAD$758,599 was allocated to General and Administrative Expenses. The increase in general & administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the increase in the volume of the money lending business.


Net Gain.   The Company had a net profit for the three months ended March 31, 2016 of CAD$90,692, as compared to a net gain of CAD$105,975 for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  The slight decrease in profit is primarily attributable to the slight increase in general and administrative expenses.


Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 2015.

Revenues.  During the six months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had operating revenues of CAD$1,957,751, as compared to revenues of CAD$1,803,090 for the six months ended March 31, 2015.

Of this, CAD$49,449 was allocated to Selling and Distribution, CAD$1,714,423 was allocated to General and Administrative Expenses. Operating expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2015 were CAD$1,622,401. Of this, CAD$51,348 was allocated to Selling and Distribution, CAD$1,611,053 was allocated to General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling and Distribution expenses were relatively comparable. The increase in General and Administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the increase



17






in the volume of the money lending business.


Net Gain   The Company had a net profit for the six months ended March 31, 2016 of CAD$157,178, as compared to a net profit of CAD$111,233 for the six months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in profit is primarily attributable to the increase in the volume of the money lending business.

The net cash outflow used in operating activities for the fiscal period ended March 31, 2016 was CAD$(2,352,547.  The net cash outflow from investing activities for the fiscal period ended March 31, 2016 was CAD$119,127.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company's controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.


As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and




18






with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objectives of timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports and of ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified.  Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of these objectives.  


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period ended December 31, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
