Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

The discussion contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases like “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “target,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend,” “we may,” “we will,” “we should,” “we seek,” “we plan,” the negative of those terms, and similar words or phrases. We base these forward-looking statements on our expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate as of the date of this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted, quantified or controlled and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking statements. Statements in this Form 10-K describe factors, among others, that could contribute to or cause these differences. Actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect. Because the factors discussed in this Form 10-K could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statement. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly revise our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this Form 10-K.

 

Item 1. Business

 

Corporate Structure

 

Organic Agricultural Company Limited (“Organic Agricultural”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 17, 2018. Our website address is www.oacl.top. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this Report.

 

The Company carries on business through its subsidiaries with headquarters in Harbin, China. When initially organized, the Company’s operating subsidiaries consisted of 51% owned Baoqing County Lvxin Paddy Rice Plant Specialized Cooperative (“Lvxin”), which grew and distributed unmilled selenium-enriched rice (“paddy”), and Heilongjiang Yuxinqi Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited (“Yuxinqi”), which marketed paddy produced by Lvxin as well as other agricultural products. We believe that the importance of selenium to human health and the fact of dietary selenium deficiency in large parts of China create a vast market potential for development.

 

In April 2020, the Company sold its 51% interest in Lvxin to the representative of the minority shareholders in Lvxin. The divestment of Lvxin will enable the Company to focus on its other business: processing and marketing food products.

 

With the sale of Lvxin, the Company’s remaining subsidiaries are: 

 

Organic Agricultural (Samoa) Co., Ltd. (“Organic Agricultural Samoa”), a wholly owned limited company registered in Samoa on December 15, 2017. Organic Agricultural Samoa owns all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Organic Agricultural Company Limited (Hong Kong).

 

Organic Agricultural Company Limited (Hong Kong) (“Organic Agricultural HK”), which was established on December 6, 2017 under the laws of Hong Kong. Organic Agricultural HK wholly owns all of the registered equity of Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited.

Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited. (“Tianci Liangtian”), a wholly owned Limited Company registered in Heilongjiang, China on November 2, 2017. Tianci Liangtian owns all of the registered equity of Yuxinqi.

 

Heilongjiang Yuxinqi Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited (“Yuxinqi”), which was incorporated in Heilongjiang, China on February 5, 2018. Tianci Liangtian organized Yuxinqi to function as a marketing company, selling paddy and other crops to customers in PRC. Yuxingi shares offices in Harbin with Tianci Liangtian. Yuxinqi was initially engaged in marketing exclusively for Lvxin, and recorded its first sales in the quarter ended December 31, 2018. As our operations grow, Yuxinqi will undertake a broader range of marketing activities, both for paddy provided by Lvxin and for other food products.

 

Our present corporate structure is as follows:

 

 

 

Our Business

 

Our subsidiary, Yuxinqi, was organized in February 2018. To date, Yuxinqi has devoted its efforts to growing, marketing and distribution of selenium-enriched agricultural products, primarily paddy rice. Going forward, after the sale of our 51% in Lvxin, Yuxinqi intends to continue its focus on the marketing and sale of selenium-enriched products, while enlarging its offerings to include a variety of crop foods as well as processed foods.

Market for Selenium-Enriched Products

 

Selenium is one of the “essential” nutrients for humans, meaning that our bodies cannot produce it, and so we have to get it from our diet. Selenium deficiency can cause health problems including Keshan’s disease, a form of cardiomyopathy. The World Health Organization has found that between 50 and 250 micrograms of selenium constitute a healthy daily intake.

 

Scientists now know selenium is necessary in the body’s production of selenoproteins, a family of proteins that contain selenium in the form of an amino acid. So far, 25 different selenoproteins in the body have been isolated, but only half of their functions have been identified. Selenium is one of several nutrients known to have antioxidant properties, meaning selenium plays a part in chemical reactions that stop free radicals from damaging cells and DNA. Human and animal research has found selenoproteins are involved in embryo development, thyroid hormone metabolism, antioxidant defense, sperm production, muscle function and the immune system’s response to vaccinations. Antioxidant supplements, including selenium, are often touted to help prevent heart disease, cancer and vision loss.

 

According to the Chinese Selenium Supplements Association, selenium is purported to help people with asthma, and reduce the risk of rheumatoid arthritis and cardiovascular disease. Selenium levels drop with age, so some have claimed selenium can slow the aging process, cognitive decline and dementia. Low selenium levels are also implicated in depression, male infertility, weak immune systems and thyroid problems.

 

Plants grown in soil containing selenium convert it into a form that is usable to humans and animals. Soil around the world varies in its selenium concentration. The higher the concentration of selenium in soil, the higher the concentration of selenium is in crops. Soil in Nebraska, South and North Dakota, for example, is especially rich in selenium, and people living in these areas typically have the highest dietary intake of selenium in the United States. On the other hand, seventy-two percent (72%) of the land in China is selenium-poor.

 

Because rice is a staple food in China, selenium-enriched rice obtained by bioenrichment to increase the selenium content of rice was determined to be a good selenium source for the population in selenium-deficient regions.

 

Prior to divestment, Lvxin, has been involved in growing, threshing and selling unmilled rice since 2012, using leased farmland and the part-time labor of local farmers. Lvxin’s farming operations take place in Baoqing County of Heilongjiang Province in a region known as the Sanjiang Plain. This part of Sanjiang Plain is noteworthy for, among other things, the relatively high content of selenium in its soil. By focusing on production of selenium-enhanced rice, Lvxin hopes to develop a sustainable position in the Chinese rice market.

 

Operating Licenses

 

Our products are subject to regulation by governmental agencies in the PRC and Heilongjiang Province. Business and company registrations, along with the products, are certified on a regular basis and must be in compliance with the laws and regulations of the PRC and provincial and local governments and industry agencies, which are controlled and monitored through the issuance of licenses. Our licenses include:

 

 Tianci Liangtian and Yuxinqi operating licenses that enable us to undertake agricultural technology development services, primary processing of agricultural products, grain and legume cultivation, and agricultural products sales. (Legally approved projects can be launched after approval by the relevant departments). The registration numbers are 91230100MA1ATNP757 and 91230109MA1AYU4P51, respectively; and they are valid from November 2, 2017 and February 5, 2018, respectively, with no expiration date.

Competition

 

Currently, the distribution of selenium-enriched agricultural products in China is the province of small and medium-sized enterprises, with no dominant participant in the market. The diversity of the market is primarily a function of the relatively brief period that the inclusion of selenium-enriched food stuffs in the Chinese diet has been popular. As the practice becomes more well-established, the emergence of market leaders will be likely.

 

We are a small company. However, with our recent focus on distribution of selenium-enriched products, we are entering a growing market. We believe that we will be able to compete effectively in this market because we have the advantage of product specificity, which should enable our brand to become identified as a source for selenium-enriched products.

 

Suppliers

 

Over the years of operations, we have developed a solid and reliable image and reputation with the suppliers. We have established supplier relationships with several local companies.

 

On April 24, 2020 the subsidiary of Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Co., Ltd entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement providing for the transfer to Lou Zhengui of Tianci’s 51% interest in the equity of Baoqing County Lvxin Paddy Rice Plant Specialized Cooperative. The Agreement transferred the equity to Lou Zhengui as of April 30, 2020. The contract also provides that Lvxin will continue to sell paddy rice, and the Company has the right of priority under the same price.

 

Marketing

 

We believe that the importance of selenium to human health and the fact of selenium deficiency in large parts of China create a vast market potential for development. Selenium has been studied extensively in China. These efforts have resulted in confirming that selenium is an important element for human health and that there are areas within China that are significantly deficient in the soil and water. In the past decade, Chinese government policy has helped to enhance the importance of selenium and the potential of the selenium market.

 

The Company intends to expand its product offerings to include value-added products, both products based on rice and products based on other food stuffs, such as organic red beans and millet.

 

Insurance

 

We do not maintain fire, theft, product liability or other insurance of any kind. We bear the economic risk with respect to loss of or damage or destruction to our property and to the interruption of our business as well as liability to third parties for damage or destruction to them or their property that may be caused by our personnel or products.

 

Income Taxes

 

United States

 

The company is subject to a tax rate of 21% in the United States of America. 

 

Samoa

 

Organic Agricultural (Samoa) Co., Ltd was incorporated in Samoa and, under the current laws of Samoa, is not subject to income tax.

 

China

 

Tianci Liantian and Yuxinqi are subject to a 25% standard enterprise income tax in the PRC. There was no provision for income taxes for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 due to operating losses.

 

Employees

 

As of March 31, 2020, we had 15 employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or similar collective bargaining organization.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information in this 10K before deciding to invest in our Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

COVID-19 has adversely impacted our business and may further impact our business, financial results and liquidity for an unknown period of time.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has led government and other authorities to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement, gatherings of large numbers of people, and temporary closure of company operations. The COVID-19 pandemic have led to significant disruptions in our retail, manufacturing and distribution operations and supply chains.

 

In response to COVID-19, we have taken steps to reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, including furloughing of our employees. Such steps, and further changes we may make in the future to reduce our costs, may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain employees. If this were to occur, we may experience operational challenges that result in a negative impact on our customer services and ultimately, loss of market share, which could limit our ability to grow and expand our business.

 

In addition to the disruption to many aspects of our business operations, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted overall economic conditions and customer demand. We believe the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to impact customer demand for our products and services and customer spending levels.

 

We are unable to predict the extent to which the pandemic and related impacts will continue to adversely impact our business operations, financial performance, consolidated results of operations, consolidated financial position and the achievement of our strategic objectives.

 

Our marketing efforts will not be successful if we are unable to develop a broad awareness of our brand.

 

With our recent divestment of Lvxin, our farming subsidiary, our business is now focused exclusively on the marketing and distribution of selenium-enriched rice paddy and other foodstuffs through our Yuxinqi subsidiary. Food distribution in China is a highly competitive business, with many very large participants in the market. Our plan to gain a profitable participation in the market depends on our ability to market our brand as a source for selenium-enriched products. By identifying our brand with the growing market for selenium-enriched foodstuffs, we hope that growth will increase with the value of our brand. If this plan fails to be realized, it will be difficult for us to distinguish Yuxinqi from the many small food distributors who operate with modest profitability, which may prevent our shareholders from realizing value from their investment in the Company.

Some residents of China have recently begun to use supplements to offset selenium deficiency in their diets. We cannot predict the extent to which they may come to prefer supplements as a remedy for selenium deficiencies rather than selenium-enhanced food products.

 

Selenium deficiency has been a problem in eastern China for centuries, and the relationship of selenium deficiencies to Keshan Disease has long been known. Until recently, efforts to alleviate selenium deficiencies have been limited to changes in diet and the introduction of selenium-rich foods, where available. The use of selenium supplements is relatively recent. The use of selenium supplements does offer certain advantages, however, selenium supplements, if purchased from a reliable vendor, provide an assured quantity of selenium, whereas the selenium quantity in a specific item of grocery food is untested. Selenium supplements may be more cost-effective than selenium-enhanced foods, depending on the development of the market for each. For these and other reasons, the growth of the market for selenium supplements may be an obstacle to the growth of the market for selenium-enhanced foods.

 

Product liability claims could materially impact operating results and profitability.

 

Excessive ingestion of selenium can have serious harmful effects on an individual. While our technicians will use their best efforts to achieve an optimal selenium content in our products, many factors determine the selenium levels in a crop. Our technicians may be unable to determine when a crop contains an excess amount of selenium. Moreover, even if our technicians are successful in optimizing the selenium value in our products, consumers who suffer symptoms of selenium poisoning may focus their blame on our products. In either such situation, we may be subject to lawsuits for damages. Such lawsuits could drain our financial resources, particularly as we do not presently carry any product liability insurance or business interruption insurance. Lawsuits by customers may also distract the time and attention of our management. In addition, a product liability claim, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, could result in damage to our reputation, decreased demand for our products, product recalls and loss of revenue.

 

We do not presently maintain fire, theft, product liability or any other property insurance, which leaves us with exposure in the event of loss or damage to our properties or claims filed against us.

 

We do not maintain fire, theft, product liability or other insurance of any kind. We bear the economic risk with respect to loss of or damage or destruction to our property and to the interruption of our business, as well as liability to third parties for damage or destruction to them or their property that may be caused by our personnel or products. Such liability could be substantial and the occurrence of such loss or liability may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

 

We may not be able to effectively control and manage our planned growth.

 

We have limited operational, administrative and financial resources, which may be inadequate to sustain the growth we want to achieve. If our business and markets grow and develop, it will be necessary for us to finance and manage expansion accordingly. In addition, we may face challenges in managing our expanding product and service offerings, and in integrating any businesses we acquire with our own. Such growth would place increased demands on our existing management, employees and facilities. Our failure to meet these demands could interrupt or adversely affect our operations and cause administrative inefficiencies. Additionally, failure to execute our planned growth strategy could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

 

As a smaller marketing company with reporting obligations we may be at a competitive disadvantage to other food distribution companies. The food distribution industry has low barriers to entry.

 

Because the food distribution market is competitive, is driven in large part by costs, and consists mostly of private companies that do not have public reporting obligations, our reporting obligations may put us at a competitive disadvantage. The food distribution industry has low barriers to entry, and is populated by a number of giant companies as well as multitudes of modest to small companies. In addition, we will face additional expenses that a private food distribution company does not have, such as PCAOB auditor fees, Edgar filing fees and legal fees related to our SEC reporting obligations. Other non-public food distribution companies do not incur these costs. We are at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors because of this.

Risks Relating to our Management

 

The loss of the services of any of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent personnel could negatively impact our ability to develop our products and sales.

 

The development of our business will continue to place a significant strain on our limited personnel, management, and other resources. Our future success depends upon the continued services of our executive officers, Shen Zhenai, our President, Chairman of the Board and Director, Xun Jianjun, our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Cao Yongmei, our Chief Financial Officer, as well as the continued involvement of Hao Shuping, our Director who brought together the elements of our business. They are developing our business, which will depend on our ability to identify and retain competent employees with the skills required to execute our business objectives. The loss of the services of any of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent personnel could negatively impact our ability to develop our products and sales, which could adversely affect our financial results and impair our growth.

 

If we are unable to hire, retain or motivate qualified personnel, consultants, independent contractors, and advisors, we may not be able to grow effectively.

 

Our performance will be largely dependent on the talents and efforts of highly skilled individuals. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified personnel for all areas of our organization. Competition for such qualified employees is intense. If we do not succeed in attracting competent personnel or in retaining or motivating them, we may be unable to grow effectively. In addition, our future success depends largely on our ability to retain key consultants and advisors. We cannot assure that any skilled individuals will agree to become an employee, consultant, or independent contractor of Organic Agricultural Company Limited. Our inability to retain their services could negatively impact our business and our ability to execute our business strategy.

 

Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to their effectiveness, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.

 

As a newly public reporting company, we will be in a continuing process of developing, establishing, and maintaining internal controls and procedures that will allow our management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, our internal controls over financial reporting if and when required to do so under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Although our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until the date we are no longer an emerging growth company, our management will be required to report on our internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404. If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we would not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. At such time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our controls are documented, designed or operating. Moreover, our testing, or the subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm, that must be performed may reveal other material weaknesses or that the material weaknesses noted have not been fully remediated. If we do not remediate the material weaknesses noted, or if other material weaknesses are identified or we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, our reported financial results could be materially misstated or could subsequently require restatement, we could receive an adverse opinion regarding our internal controls over financial reporting from our independent registered public accounting firm and we could be subject to investigations or sanctions by regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.

Our lack of an independent audit committee and audit committee financial expert at this time may hinder our board of directors’ effectiveness in monitoring the Company’s compliance with its disclosure and accounting obligations. Until we establish such committee, we will be unable to obtain a listing on a national securities exchange.

 

Although our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange, for purposes of independence we use the definition of independence applied by NASDAQ. Currently, we have no independent audit committee. Our full board of directors functions as our audit committee and is comprised of four directors. An independent audit committee would play a crucial role in the corporate governance process, assessing our Company’s processes relating to our risks and control environment, overseeing financial reporting, and evaluating internal and independent audit processes. The lack of an independent audit committee may deprive the Company of management’s independent judgment. We may, however, have difficulty attracting and retaining independent directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified, independent directors, the management of our business could be compromised. An independent audit committee is required for listing on any national securities exchange. Therefore, until such time as we meet the audit committee independence requirements of a national securities exchange, we will be ineligible for listing on any national securities exchange.

 

Our board of directors acts as our compensation committee, which presents the risk that compensation and benefits paid to those executive officers who are board members and other officers may not be commensurate with our financial performance.

 

A compensation committee consisting of independent directors is a safeguard against self-dealing by company executives. Our board of directors, which has no independent members, acts as the compensation committee for the Company and determines the compensation and benefits of our executive officers, administers our employee stock and benefit plans, and reviews policies relating to the compensation and benefits of our employees. Our lack of an independent compensation committee presents the risk that an executive officer on the board may have influence over his or her personal compensation and benefits levels that may not be commensurate with our financial performance or the market place.

 

Limitations on director and officer liability and indemnification of our Company’s officers and directors by us may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against an officer or director.

 

Our Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide, with certain exceptions as required by governing state law, that a director or officer shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law, or unlawful payments of dividends. These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against a director or officer for breach of fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation by stockholders on the Company’s behalf against a director or officer.

 

Our management has limited experience managing a public company.

 

At the present time, none of our management has experience in managing a public company. This may hinder our ability to establish effective controls and systems and comply with all applicable requirements associated with being a public company. If compliance problems result, these problems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have imposed various new requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to our new compliance requirements. Moreover, these requirements will increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect it will be difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. These requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain independent and qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers.

We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.

 

The PRC historically has not adopted a western style of management and financial reporting concepts and practices, as in modern banking, computer and other control systems. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet western standards. Therefore, we may, in turn, experience difficulties and additional costs in implementing and maintaining adequate internal controls as will be required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.

 

Risks Related to Regulation

 

Changes in the policies of the PRC government could have an adverse effect on our business.

 

Policies of the PRC government can have significant effects on the economic conditions in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies and transitioning to a market-oriented economy, there is no assurance that the government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption, or other circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. Our business could be adversely affected by changes in PRC government policies, including but not limited to changes in policies relating to taxation, currency conversion, imports and exports, and ownership of private enterprises.

 

PRC laws and regulations governing our current business operations are sometimes vague and subject to interpretation, and any changes in PRC laws and regulations may have a material and adverse effect on our business.

 

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation, application and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations, including but not limited to the laws and regulations governing our business. These laws and regulations are sometimes vague and are subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement by the various branches of the PRC government may involve substantial uncertainty. The PRC legal system is based in part on governmental policies and internal rules some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all. New laws, regulations, rules and policies that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict with certainty what effect existing or new PRC laws or regulations may have on our business. In addition, there is less published guidance regarding PRC laws as compared to laws in the United States, and prior rulings and interpretations of PRC laws may not necessarily carry the same precedential value as in the United States.

Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.

 

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) government imposes controls on the convertibility of Renminbi (RMB) into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB, which is currently not a freely convertible currency. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict our ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends, or otherwise satisfy foreign currency dominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.

 

The PRC government also may at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay certain of our expenses as they come due.

 

The fluctuation of RMB may materially and adversely affect your investment.

 

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. As we rely entirely on revenues earned in the PRC, any significant revaluation of RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from an offering of our securities into RMB for our operations, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making dividend payments on our common stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the RMB, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the RMB we convert would be reduced. In addition, the depreciation of significant U.S. dollar denominated assets could result in a charge to our income statement and a reduction in the value of these assets.

 

Because our principal assets are located outside of the United States and because all of our directors and all our officers reside outside of the United States, it may be difficult for you to use the United States Federal securities laws to enforce your rights against us and our officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts against us or them in the PRC.

 

All of our present officers and directors reside outside of the United States. In addition, our operating subsidiaries, Tianci Liangtian and Yuxinqi, are located in the PRC and substantially all of their assets are located outside of the United States. It may therefore be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights based on the civil liability provisions of the United States Federal securities laws against us in the courts of either the United States or the PRC and, even if civil judgments are obtained in courts of the United States, to enforce such judgments in PRC courts. Further, it is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the United States and the PRC would permit effective enforcement against us or our officers and directors of criminal penalties, under the United States Federal securities laws or otherwise.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock

 

We are an emerging growth company and, as a result of the reduced disclosure and governance requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, our common stock may be less attractive to investors.

 

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies. The exemptions available to emerging growth companies include the right to present only two years of audited financial statements in our registration statements and annual reports, an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act relating to internal controls, reduced disclosure about executive compensation arrangements, and no requirement to seek non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements. Some of these exemptions are also available to us as a smaller reporting company (i.e. a company with less than $250 million of its voting equity held by non-affiliates).  We have elected to adopt these reduced disclosure requirements.  We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of our taking advantage of these exemptions.  If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of our choices, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

 

Pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of The JOBS Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. The decision to opt out is irrevocable.

 

Because the worldwide market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or public float, was below $250 million on the last day of our fiscal year, we are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined under the Exchange Act. Some of the foregoing reduced disclosure and other requirements are also available to us because we are a smaller reporting company and may continue to be available to us even after we are no longer an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act but remain a smaller reporting company under the Exchange Act. As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to:

 

have an auditor report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
present more than two years of audited financial statements in our registration statements and annual reports on Form 10-K; or
present any selected financial data in such registration statements and annual reports filings made by the Company.

 

Because we will be subject to “penny stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.

 

Until we are able to secure a listing for our common stock on a national securities exchange, it is likely that our common stock will be classified as a “penny stock’ when trading is initiated and for an indeterminate period thereafter. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges). Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules. If a trading market does develop for our common stock, these regulations will likely be applicable, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

 

11

 

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

 

FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock.

 

Shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights, which will cause them to experience dilution if we issue additional securities.

 

At any time or times after this offering, we may issue and sell additional shares of our authorized but previously unissued shares of common stock, preferred stock, or common stock warrants on such terms and conditions as our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may determine without consent of our shareholders. Our shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights to acquire additional shares should we in the future issue or sell additional securities. Thus, we are not required to offer any existing shareholder the right to purchase his or her pro rata portion of any future issuance of securities and, therefore, upon the issuance of any additional securities by us hereafter, our shareholders will not be able to maintain their then existing pro rata ownership in our outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock, or common stock warrants without additional purchases of securities at the price then set internally by us or the market.

  

We are unlikely to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries. Our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on their ability to make distributions to us, including as a result of restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions. The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We and our shareholders also face uncertainties with respect to indirect transfers of equity interests in PRC resident enterprises by their non-PRC holding companies. Pursuant to a notice, or Circular 698, issued by the State Administration of Taxation, where a non-resident enterprise conducts an “indirect transfer” by transferring the equity interests of a PRC resident enterprise indirectly via disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, and such overseas holding company is located in a tax jurisdiction that: (1) has an effective tax rate less than 12.5%; or (2) does not tax foreign income of its residents, the non-resident enterprise, being the transferor, shall report to the relevant tax authority of the PRC resident enterprise such indirect transfer. Using a “substance over form” principle, the PRC tax authority may disregard the existence of the overseas holding company if it lacks a reasonable commercial purpose and was established for the purpose of reducing, avoiding or deferring PRC tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax, currently at a rate of 10%.

 

12

 

 

Our insiders own the majority of the outstanding shares of our stock, and accordingly, will have control over stockholder matters, the Company’s business and management.

 

As of the date of this report, the four members of our Board of Directors own, in the aggregate, common stock representing 51.03% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. While they continue to hold the majority of the voting power in our Company, these four directors will have effective control over the Company, in particular, the four directors will have the ability to:

 

Elect or defeat the election of our directors;

Amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;
Effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and

Affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote.

 

Moreover, because of the significant ownership position held by our insiders, new investors will not be able to affect a change in the Company’s business or management, and therefore, shareholders would be subject to decisions made by management and the majority shareholders.

 

In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors and executive officers, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 2. Properties.

 

The Company does not own any real property. We believe the premises we now have under lease will be adequate for our operations for the foreseeable future.

 

Office Leases

 

In November 2017, Tianci Liangtian leased office space from November 20, 2017 to December 5, 2018 under an operating lease agreement (approximately 666 square meters). Under the terms of the lease, Tianci Liangtian paid $1,592 in lease deposits and committed to make annual lease payments of RMB290,000 (approximately US$42,000). In December 2018, Yuxingqi renewed the lease agreement. Under the terms, Yuxingqi committed to make annual lease payments of RMB290,000 (approximately US$42,000) for the period from December 6, 2018 to December 5, 2019. On December 20, 2019, Yuxingqi renewed the lease agreement. Under the terms, Yuxingqi committed to make annual lease payments of RMB290,000 (approximately US$42,000, including VAT tax) for the period from December 20, 2019 to December 19, 2020. On December 23, 2019, Tianci Liangtian paid RMB150,000 (approximately US$22,000).

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

 

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of such financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to useful lives of real estate assets, bad debts, impairment, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. The analysis set forth below is provided pursuant to applicable SEC regulations and is not intended to serve as a basis for projections of future events. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above.

 

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

In preparing our financial statements, we are required to formulate working policies regarding valuation of our assets and liabilities and to develop estimates of those values. In our preparation of the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020, there was one estimate that was (a) subject to a high degree of uncertainty and (b) material to our results:

 

 The determination, described in Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, to record our inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The cost of our inventories primarily consists of the cost of harvested crops that remain unsold. Our determination to record the inventories at cost was based on our determination that the paddy in inventory, could be sold for a net amount that equaled or exceeded its cost. In contrast, for the year ended March 31, 2019, we recorded our inventories at net realizable value because the paddy in inventory at that date was sold in May 2019 for an amount below its cost.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

 

The following table shows key components of the results of operations during the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

Net (loss) attributable to common shareholders’  $(474,538)  $(903,895)   429,357    (48%)

  

Our revenue results for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were primarily the result of paddy and milled rice and other production sales: 

 

   The Year Ended March 31, 
   2020   2019 
   Sales   %   Sales   % 
Milled Rice and other production  $256,999    25%  $245,045    22%
Paddy   754,709    75%   878,268    78%
   $1,011,708    100%  $1,123,313    100%

  

As our results during the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 indicate, the sale of paddy is extremely seasonal. Revenue from paddy sales is generally recognized in the period from October through March. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company did not have any sale of paddy in the last quarter of the year ended of March 31,2020, and had a decrease of $123,559 in the revenue from paddy sales than the same period of last year.

 

The costs incurred in planting and growing paddy are capitalized as additions to inventory until the harvest season, when the capitalized costs are amortized against sales. Costs of sales of $701,996 were attributable to paddy sales during the year ended March 31, 2020, resulting in gross profit of $52,713 and a gross margin of 7% from the sale of paddy. Costs of sales of $759,626 were attributable to paddy sales during the year ended March 31, 2019, resulting in gross profit of $118,642 and a gross margin of 13.5%. The 4% lower market price of the paddy, and higher average unit cost of the paddy due to reduction output, are the major factors in the reduction of paddy sales gross margin compared with last year. The remainder of our cost of sales of $200,273 and $151,466 were attributable to the sales of milled rice and other foodstuffs during the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, resulting in gross profit of $56,726 and $93,579, and a gross margin of 22.1% and 38.2%, respectively. For the different major customer and product, the gross margin decline 16.1% for the year ended of March 31, 2020 than previous year. In the year ended of March 31, 2020, the company sell the Tuohuangzhe series products with gross margin of 21% to major customer Huiye and Beiqinhai, accounting for 61% of total non-paddy revenue, and in the previous year, the Company sell Tianci series products with gross margin of 45% to major customer Shouhang Commerce and Trade, accounting for 76% of total non-paddy revenue. The higher margin on our non-paddy lines makes our expansion in this market attractive. We expect that increased advertising of the health benefits of consuming selenium-enriched rice will increase demand for our paddy products and enable greater margins. We intend to devote resources to that advertising effort as they become available.

During the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $557,993 and $1,040,221, respectively, in operating expenses, the greater portion of which was attributable to the costs of our operations - i.e. salaries and benefits expenses. Salaries and benefits expense decreased by an estimated $434,000 during the year ended March 31, 2020 mainly because the Company granted a total of 290,000 shares to 8 employees during the year ended March 31, 2019, which resulted in $377,000 of stock compensation expense, representing the fair value of those shares on the date issued. No stock compensation was granted during the year ended March 31, 2020.

 

During the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred $191,782 and $140,056, respectively, of expenses relating to our efforts to become a reporting company in the United States, including legal and accounting fees, transfer agent fees, etc.

 

The Company’s operations produced a net loss of $446,602 and $824,558 for the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. However, because we owned only 51% of the equity in Lvxin, U.S. GAAP directs us to record all of the revenue and expenses attributable to the operations of Lvxin, but then offset the portion of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Therefore, we eliminated $27,936 and $79,337 of the net income attributable to Lvxin’ minority shareholders during the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As a result, the net loss attributable to the Company’s common shareholders was $474,538 and $903,895 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s operations have been financed primarily by the sale of common stock to residents of China and by loans from related parties. In addition, the shareholders of Lvxin financed the operations of that entity, and their loans were repaid prior to March 31, 2020. During the year ended March 31, 2020, we received $726,450 for shares of 522,000common stock, and received $8,167 for the sale of common shares to be issued. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s loans payable to related parties totaled $121,434 (an increase of $29,127 from March 31, 2019), which was owed to members of the Company’s management. Working capital at March 31, 2020 totaled $318,673. Working capital increased by $30,510 during the year ended March 31, 2020, as cash from the sale of common stock offset the net loss incurred during that year plus the recognition of $316,889 of a current lease liability due to our adoption of the FASB’s new lease standard.

 

The largest component of working capital is inventory, which is measured by the costs incurred for rice in the field and in the warehouse. It is noteworthy that Lvxin and Yuxingqi had only $5,212 of accounts receivable as of March 31, 2020 and no accounts receivable as of March 31, 2019. This occurs because the payment terms given by Lvxin and Yuxingqi to their customers are very strict: most sales are made with COD (cash on delivery) or prepayment terms.

 

Cash Flows

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

During the year ended March 31, 2020, our operations used net cash of $524,933. Cash used in operations exceeded our net loss of $446,602 for the year primarily because we increased our inventories by $131,911.

 

During the year ended March 31, 2019, our operations used net cash of $472,702. The use of cash in operations was less than the net loss for the year primarily because the net loss included a non-cash expense of $377,000 attributable to the market value of shares issued to employees in June 2018. In addition, inventory decreased by $222,700 and we received customer prepayments of $134,561.

  

The Company recorded $1,318 of cash used in investing activities for purchase of fixed assets during the year ended March 31, 2020. Our investing activities during the year ended March 31, 2019 used $238,672. Investing activities consisted of:

 

  $ 10,754 used in purchases of fixed assets;

 

  $ 227,918 used to pay the purchase price for 51% of Lvxin.

Our financing activities during the year ended March 31, 2019 generated $313,773. Financing activities consisted of $405,939 in proceeds the sale of common stock and $12,317 in borrowings from related parties, offset by $104,483 used to repay loans from related parties.

Our business through the year ended March 31, 2020 was seasonal, as our sales of paddy occur generally during the harvest season, which occurs from October to March of the following year. Our sales were typically the lowest from April to September, which is the planting and growing and harvesting period for paddy. Accordingly, we experienced significant seasonal fluctuations in our revenues and our operating costs. With the sale of Lvxin in April 2020, the seasonality of our operations should be significantly reduced, but not eliminated. For the near term, resale of paddy rice will remain the largest portion of the business of Yuxinqi, which will cause some of the seasonality of the growth cycle for that crop to carry through to the operations of Yuxinqi.

 

The Company intends to expand its product offerings to include value-added products, both products based on rice and products based on other food stuffs, such as organic red beans and millet. Our marketing personnel will endeavor to expand awareness of our brand, open new marketing channels, and educate the nation about the health benefits of selenium-enriched rice. In this manner, the Company hopes to make a sufficient operating cash inflow to support the future operation and development of the Company.

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant adverse impact and created many uncertainties related to our business, and we expect that it will continue to do so. The Company is experiencing challenges in sales and has suffered a significant decrease in revenues which has increased financial uncertainty. Our future business outlook and expectations are very uncertain due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak and are very difficult to quantify. It is difficult to assess or predict the impact of this unprecedented event on our business, financial results or financial condition. Factors that will impact the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak affects our business, financial results and financial condition include: the duration, spread and severity of the outbreak; the actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, including government actions to mitigate the economic impact of the outbreak; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, including whether any future outbreaks interrupt economic recovery.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has led government and other authorities to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement, gatherings of large numbers of people, and temporary closure of company operations. The COVID-19 pandemic have led to significant disruptions in our retail, manufacturing and distribution operations and supply chains. In response to COVID-19, we have taken steps to reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, including furloughing of our employees. Such steps, and further changes we may make in the future to reduce our costs, may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain employees. In addition, the Company follow the government’s epidemic prevention provisions to protect employee from COVID-19.

 

Other than the factors listed above we do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had or are reasonably expected to have a material impact on our net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

New accounting rules and disclosure requirements can significantly impact the comparability of our financial statements. Please refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

 

There were no other recent accounting pronouncements that we expect to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Organic Agricultural Company Limited

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Organic Agricultural Company Limited and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended March 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Change in Accounting Principles

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for leases in fiscal year 2020 due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard. The Company adopted the new lease standard using a modified retrospective approach.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s lack of significant revenues and recurring losses from operations indicate that the Company may not be able to continue as a going concern. The Company continues to be reliant on borrowings from its shareholders. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans, regarding those matters are also described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

ORGANIC AGRICULTURAL COMPANY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(AMOUNTS IN US DOLLARS)

 

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Organic Agricultural Company Limited (“Organic Agricultural”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 17, 2018.

 

The Company, through its subsidiaries with headquarters in Harbin, China, sells paddy and selenium-enriched paddy products, rice and other agricultural products. At March 31, 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries were: 

 

  Organic Agricultural (Samoa) Co., Ltd. (“Organic Agricultural Samoa”), a limited company incorporated in Samoa on December 15, 2017, is wholly owned by Organic Agricultural. Organic Agricultural Samoa owns all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Organic Agricultural Company Limited (Hong Kong).

 

  Organic Agricultural Company Limited (Hong Kong) (“Organic Agricultural HK”), which was established on December 6, 2017 under the laws of Hong Kong, is wholly owned by Organic Agricultural Samoa. Organic Agricultural HK owns all of the registered equity of Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited.

 

  Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited. (“Tianci Liangtian”), a company incorporated in Heilongjiang, China on November 2, 2017, is wholly owned by Organic Agricultural HK. Tianci Liangtian owned:

 

  all of the registered equity of Heilongjiang Yuxinqi Agricultural Technology Development Company Limited (“Yuxinqi”), which was incorporated in Heilongjiang, China on February 5, 2018. Yuxinqi sells agricultural products to customers.

 

  51% of the registered equity of Baoqing County Lvxin Paddy Rice Plant Specialized Cooperative (“Lvxin”), a company incorporated in China on February 9, 2012. Lvxin is an integrated agricultural company providing self-planting paddy to its customers.

 

In April 2020, Tianci Liangtian sold its equity interest in Lvxin (See Note 12).

 

 Reorganization

 

On May 16, 2018, the Company completed a corporate reorganization to combine several controlled entities (now referred to as the “subsidiaries”) into Organic Agricultural. The specific transactions related to this reorganization are as follows:

 

On March 31, 2017, Hao Shuping and the shareholders of Lvxin signed an Equity Transfer Agreement, whereby shareholders of Lvxin transferred 51% of the controlling interest in Lvxin to Hao Shuping. Hao Shuping agreed to pay the Lvxin shareholders RMB 2,029,586 (US$305,472) in cash and cause the company that would become Organic Agricultural to issue to them 152,736 shares (valued at US$152,736). Hao Shuping and the shareholders of Lvxin also signed an irrevocable supplemental agreement that gave Hao Shuping voting and managerial control over Lvxin. By June 22, 2018, Tianci Liangtian paid all of the consideration to Lvxin’s former shareholders.

 

On January 1, 2018, pursuant to the Equity Transfer Agreement between Hao Shuping and Tianci Liangtian, Hao Shuping transferred his 51% controlling interest in Lvxin to Tianci Liangtian. As control of both entities resided with Hao Shuping, we have accounted for the combination of Lvxin with Tianci Liangtian as a transaction between entities under common control.

 

 On January 8, 2018, the shareholders of Tianci Liangtian transferred ownership of Tianci Liangtian to Organic Agricultural HK, which is wholly owned by Organic Agricultural Samoa.

 

On May 16, 2018, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 to the shareholders of Organic Agricultural Samoa, in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Organic Agricultural Samoa (the “Share Exchange”).

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, Hao Shuping acquired 48.8% of the Company’s outstanding shares. Prior to the Share Exchange, Hao Shuping controlled Lvxin and Tianci Liangtian. Therefore, the Share Exchange was accounted for as a business combination of entities under common control in accordance with ASC 805-50-30-5. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are presented at their carrying values at the date of the transaction; the Company’s historical stockholders’ equity was retroactively restated to the first period presented, as the acquisition of Organic Agricultural Samoa, Organic Agricultural HK, Tianci Liangtian and Lvxin was treated as a combination of entities under common control.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Going concern

 

Management has determined there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our lack of significant revenues and recurring losses. If we are unable to generate significant revenue or secure additional financing, we may be required to cease or curtail our operations. Our financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company’s operations have been financed primarily by advances and loans from related parties and proceeds from sales of shares. Hao Shuping, Shen Zhenai, Xun Jianjun were the primary sources of financing for the early operations of the entity and will continue to provide support in the future if there is any need for capital. As of March 31,2020, the Company had a balance of $44,772, $37,647, $7,766 and $31,249, due to Hao Shuping, Shen Zhenai, Xun Jianjun and Lou Zhengui, respectively. The Company received $734,617 during the year ended March 31, 2020, and an additional $46,500 from April 1, 2020 to the date of filling this report, from the sale of shares. These funds provided sufficient working capital for the Company.

 

Management intends to expand product offerings to include value-added products, both products based on rice and products based on other food stuffs, such as organic red beans and millet.

 

The marketing personnel of the Company will endeavor to expand awareness of our brand, open new marketing channels, and educate the nation about the health benefits of selenium-enriched rice.

 

In this manner, Management hopes to generate sufficient operating cash inflow to support its future operations and development of the Company in addition to capital raised from sales of shares and shareholders’ support based on needs.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue 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 from those estimates. One significant item subject to such estimates and assumptions is the inventory valuation allowance. These estimates are often based on complex judgments and assumptions that management believes to be reasonable but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash consists of cash on hand and bank deposits, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use. All highly liquid investments with original stated maturities of three months or less are classified as cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and cash in bank, as of March 31, 2020 and 2019.

  

Revenue recognition

 

Effective April 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products and contracts by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the entity, and specific criteria have been met for each of the Company’s activities as described below.

 

The Company sells paddy and selenium-enriched paddy products, rice and other agricultural products. All revenue is recognized when it is both earned and realized. The Company’s policy is to recognize the sale when the products, ownership and risk of loss have transferred to the purchasers, and collection of the sales proceeds, if not prepaid, is reasonably assured, all of which generally occur when the customer receives the products. Accordingly, revenue is recognized at the point in time when delivery is made.

 

Given the nature of this revenue source of the Company’s business and the applicable rules guiding revenue recognition, the revenue recognition practices for the sale do not contain estimates that materially affect results of operations nor does the Company have any policy for return of products.

 

Fair value measurements

 

The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements. ASC 820 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received when selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining the fair value for the assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

 

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2: Quoted prices, other than those in Level 1, in markets that are not active or for similar assets and liabilities, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

Fair value measurements (continued)

 

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

There were no transfers between level 1, level 2 or level 3 measurements during the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Financial assets and liabilities of the Company primarily consists of cash, account receivables, prepaid expenses, inventories, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, customer deposits, due to related parties, lease liability(current) and other payables. As at March 31, 2020 and 2019, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Functional currency and foreign currency translation

 

An entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. Normally that is the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Management’s judgment is essential to determine the functional currency by assessing various indicators, such as cash flows, sales price and market, expenses, financing and inter-company transactions and arrangements. The functional currency of the Company is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB’), except the functional currency of Organic Agricultural HK is the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”), and the functional currency of Organic Agricultural Samoa and Organic Agricultural is the United States dollar (“US Dollars” “USD” or “$”). The reporting currency of these consolidated financial statements is in US Dollars. 

  

The financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the RMB and the HKD, are translated into the Company’s reporting currency, the US Dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each reporting period end date. Revenue and expenses are translated using average rates prevailing during each reporting period, and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

 

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses resulting from these transactions are included in operations.

 

The exchange rates used for foreign currency translation are as follows:

 

      For the year ended March 31, 
      2020   2019 
      (USD to RMB/USD to HKD)   (USD to RMB/USD to HKD) 
Assets and liabilities  period end exchange rate   7.0896/7.7529   6.7111/7.8493
Revenue and expenses  period average   6.9662/7.8164   6.7108/7.8416

  

Income taxes

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred income taxes for the differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statements and income tax purposes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for operating losses and for tax credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income taxes (continued)

 

ASC 740-10-30 requires income tax positions to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized in the financial statements. Under ASC 740-10-30, tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Under ASC 740-10-40, previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

 

The application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings. Therefore, the actual liability may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse previously recorded tax liabilities or the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

 

Lvxin products sales and services have been exempt from enterprise income tax. According to the “PRC Income Tax Law” Article 27 (1), income from agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry and the fisheries industries shall be exempt from business tax.

 

According to the “PRC Income Tax Law”, Tianci Liantian and Yuxinqi are subject to a 25% standard enterprise income tax in the PRC.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of contracts to issue ordinary common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. The computation of diluted EPS includes the estimated impact of the exercise of contracts to purchase common stock using the treasury stock method and the potential common shares associated with convertible debt using the if-converted method. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase earnings per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

 

 Share-based compensation

 

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718 requiring employee equity awards to be accounted for under the fair value method. Accordingly, share-based compensation is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award and recognized over its vesting period. No equity instruments were granted during the year ended March 31, 2020 and no compensation expense is required to be recognized under provisions of ASC 718 with respect to employees. During the year ended March 31, 2019, specifically on June 13, 2018, the Company granted a total of 290,000 shares with a fair value on the grant date of $1.30 per share to 8 employees, and $377,000 compensation expense was recognized under the provisions of ASC 718. These shares were fully vested when issued.

 

Segment information and geographic data

 

The Company is operating in one segment in accordance with the accounting guidance in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The Company’s revenues are from the sales of agricultural products from customers in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). All assets of the Company are located in the PRC.

 

Concentration of credit risk

 

The Company maintains cash in three banks in China. In China, the insurance coverage of each bank is RMB500,000 (approximately USD$75,000). As of March 31, 2020, the Company had RMB768,318 (approximately USD$103,000) in excess of the insurance amounts.

 

During the year ended March 31, 2020, major customers Li Jiaxu, Zhao Shihai and Huiye Group generated 38%, 32% and 11% of revenue, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2019, major customers Li Jiaxu, Sun Rongmao, Zhao Shihai and Shouhang Commerce and Trade Ltd. generated 21%, 18%, 33% and 20% of revenue, respectively.

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

Revenue

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). The amendment in this update affects entities with transactions included within the scope of Topic 606, The scope of that Topic includes entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services (that are an output of the entity’s ordinary activities) in exchange for consideration. The amendments are intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, the amendments in ASU 2016-10 provide more detailed guidance, including additional implementation guidance and examples in the following key areas: 1) identifying performance obligations and 2) licenses of intellectual property. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”). The amendments do not change the core principles of the standard, but clarify the guidance on assessing collectability, presenting sales taxes, measuring noncash consideration and certain transition matters. This update becomes effective concurrently with ASU No. 2014-09. The Company adopted ASU 2016-12 effective April 1, 2018. There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606 for the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Leases

 

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which provides an additional, optional transition method related to implementing the new leases standard. ASU 2018-11 provides that companies can initially apply the new lease standard at adoption and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted the guidance as of April 1, 2019, there is no cumulative-effect adjustment to the Company’s opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. See Note 9 - Leases for further details.

 

We do not believe any recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

 

NOTE 3. PREPAID EXPENSES

 

Prepaid expenses include prepaid paddy planting production materials, prepayment of rice processing charges, and prepayment for products to be purchased. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, prepayments and deferred expenses were $48,789 and $121,257, respectively.

  

NOTE 4. LONG-TERM LEASE PREPAYMENTS

 

Long-term lease prepayments include land rent prepayment over one year. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, long-term lease prepayments were $nil and $273,275. As a result of the adoption of the new accounting standards applicable to leases, long-term lease prepayments were reclassified to offset the lease liability as of March 31, 2020.

 

NOTE 5. INVENTORIES

 

Inventories are comprised of growing costs, harvesting costs, raw materials, and finished goods (including harvesting agricultural produce paddy and processed rice and other agricultural products).

 

Growing costs, also referred to as agricultural costs, consist of seeds, cultivation, fertilization, labor costs and soil improvement, pest control and irrigation.

 

Harvest costs are comprised of labor and equipment expenses incurred to harvest and deliver crops to the packinghouses.

 

Raw materials include all costs of materials purchased to be used in production of the Company’s products.

NOTE 5. INVENTORIES (Continued)

 

Agricultural produce paddy is grown in Lvxin’s planting base. This crop has distinct growing, harvest, and selling periods, each of which lasts approximately four to six months. During the growing period (usually April to September), agricultural costs are capitalized, as they are associated with benefiting and preparing the crops for the harvest and selling period. During the harvest and selling period, harvest costs and agricultural costs are capitalized as inventories, then recorded as a cost of sales in accordance with FIFO recognition of historical costs when the inventory is sold.

 

Most agricultural costs, including capitalized agricultural costs and certain other costs, such as indirect labor including farm supervision and management and irrigation that benefit multiple crops, are allocated to crops on a per-kilogram basis.

 

The cost of harvesting agricultural produce paddy includes all relevant expenditures incurred before and during the entire cultivation period and after harvesting, mainly including seed, fertilizer and other production materials, land rent, labor, and other related costs, subject to impairment if the cost of inventory exceeds net realizable value.

 

Manufactured goods, rice and other products includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition.

 

The Company values inventory on its balance sheet at the lower of cost or net realizable value. As of March 31, 2019, based on recent sales experience, the Company determined that the net realizable value of its inventory at that time was less than the costs incurred in producing the inventory. Therefore, an impairment charge was made as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, market conditions indicated that the cost of inventory would be recoverable, so no impairment was recorded. As of March 31 2020 and 2019, inventories consisted of the following:

 

   March 31   March 31 
   2020   2019 
Growing cost  $-   $70,211 
Selenium enriched paddy   557,085    396,800 
Rice and other products   41,153    68,662

Total inventories at cost   613,695    545,843 
Inventory-impairment   -    (29,439)
Inventories, net  $613,695   $516,404 

 

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company did not have any sale of paddy in the last quarter of the year ended of March 31,2020, and had a decrease of $123,559 than the same period of last year.

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate was as follows:

 

   March 31   March 31 
   2020   2019 
U.S. federal statutory income tax rate   21%   21%
U.S. Valuation allowance   (21)%   (21)%
Rates for Tianci Liangtian and Yuxinqi, net   25%   25%
PRC Valuation allowance   (25)%   (25)%
Rate for Lvxxin   0%   0%
The Company’s effective tax rate   (0)%   (0)%

  

The Company did not recognize deferred tax assets since it is not likely to realize such deferred taxes. The deferred tax would apply to the Company in the U.S. and Yuxinqi and Tianci Liangtian, in China.

 

As of March 31, 2020, Yuxinqi and Tianci Liangtian have total net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $663,000 in the PRC that expire in 2024. Due to the uncertainty of utilizing these carry forwards, the Company provided a 100% allowance on all deferred tax assets of approximately $166,000 and $102,000 related to its operations in the PRC as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The PRC valuation allowance has increased by approximately $64,000 and $102,000 for the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The Company has incurred losses from its United States operations during all periods presented of approximately $397,000. The Company's United States operations consist solely of ownership of its foreign subsidiaries, and the losses arise from administration expenses. Accordingly, management provided a 100% valuation allowance of approximately $83,000 and $43,000 against the deferred tax assets related to the Company’s United States operations as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, because the deferred tax benefits of the net operating loss carry forwards in the United States will not likely be utilized. The US valuation allowance has increased by approximately $40,000 and $30,000 for the year ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The Company is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the United States as well as by the taxing authorities in China, where the firm has significant business operations. The tax years under examination vary by jurisdiction. The table below presents the earliest tax year that remain subject to examination by major jurisdiction.

NOTE 9. RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS AND LEASE LIABILITIES

 

On April 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB ASC 842, “Leases” (“new lease standard”). The new lease standard was adopted using the optional transition method approach that allows for the cumulative effect adjustment to be recorded without restating prior periods. The Company has elected the practical expedient package related to the identification, classification and accounting for initial direct costs whereby prior conclusions do not have to be reassessed for leases that commenced before the effective date. As the Company will not reassess such conclusions, the Company has not adopted the practical expedient to use hindsight to determine the likelihood of whether a lease will be extended or terminated or whether a purchase option will be exercised.

 

In November 2017, Tianci Liangtian leased office space from November 20, 2017 to December 5, 2018 under an operating lease agreement (approximately 666 square meters). Under the terms of the lease, Tianci Liangtian paid approximately $1,592 in lease deposits and committed to make annual lease payments. In December 2018, Yuxingqi renewed the lease agreement. Under the terms, Yuxingqi committed to make annual lease payments of RMB290,000 (approximately US$42,000) for the period from December 6, 2018 to December 5, 2019. On December 20, 2019, Yuxingqi renewed the lease agreement. Under the terms, Yuxingqi committed to make annual lease payments of RMB290,000 (approximately US$42,000, including VAT tax) for the period from December 20, 2019 to December 19, 2020, of which RMB150,000 (approximately US$22,000) payment was made on December 23, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, US$25,727 and US$18,630 was accounted as operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities (current), respectively.

 

In April 2018, Lvxin leased office space of approximately 177 square meters under a one-year lease agreement. Lvxin paid approximately US$4,500 as rent. The office contained our administrative functions, sales, e-commerce operations and marketing functions. After April 2019, Lvxin did not renew this office lease agreement.

 

The Company leases 1,228 acres of land for cultivating pursuant to more than 300 lease agreements with individual farmers. Some of the leases are paid annually, and some of the leases are paid in advance for periods from 2 to 22 years. These prepayments reduced the related lease liabilities. The Company accounts for the land rental costs as a cost of production of paddy.

NOTE 9. RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS AND LEASE LIABILITIES (Continued)

 

The Company’s adoption of the new lease standard included new processes and controls regarding asset financing transactions, financial reporting and a system-related implementation required for the new lease standard. The impact of the adoption of the new lease standard included the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities. The adoption of the new lease standard resulted in additional net lease assets and net lease liabilities of approximately $2.01 million and $1.74 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2020. For the year ended March 31, 2020, the amortization was $400,085.

 

Operating leases are reflected on our balance sheet within ROU assets and the related current and non-current operating lease liabilities. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease agreement. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date, or the date on which the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use, based upon the present value of the lease payments over the respective lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, subject to any changes in the lease or expectation regarding the terms.

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has the following amounts recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet:

 

  

As of

NOTE 10. REVENUE

 

The Company sells paddy and selenium-enriched paddy products, rice and other agricultural products. All revenue is recognized when it is both earned and realized. The Company’s policy is to recognize the sale when the products, ownership and risk of loss have transferred to the purchasers, and collection of the sales proceeds, if not prepaid, is reasonably assured, all of which generally occur when the customer receives the products. Accordingly, revenue is recognized at the point in time when delivery is made.

 

Our revenue results for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were primarily the result of paddy and milled rice and other production sales: 

 

   The Year Ended March 31, 
   2020   2019 
   Sales   %   Sales   % 
Milled Rice and other production  $256,999    25%  $245,045    22%

On April 30, 2020 (the “Distribution Date”), the Company completed the divestment of its subsidiary Lvxin as its subsidiary, Heilongjiang Tianci Liangtian Agricultural Technology Development Co., Ltd, transfered its 51% equity interest in Lvxin to Lou Zhengui, the representative of the minority shareholders in Lvxin. Tianci Liangtian retained responsibility for the liabilities incurred by Lvxin prior to April 30, 2020, including debt of 257,731RMB (approx. US$36,380) owed by Lvxin to Yuxingqi, which is a subsidiary of Tianci Liangtian. Tianci Liangtian also waived a debt of 3,672,002RMB (approx. US$518,321) owed by Lvxin to Tianci Liangtian.

 

In exchange for the 51% interest in Lvxin, Lou Zhengui assumed debt of 300,000RMB (approx. US$42,350) owed by Tianci Liangtian to Hao Shuping, a member of the Company's Board of Directors.

 

The Company incurred $941,819 of investment loss from the divestment of Lvxin by Tianci Liangtian.

 

After the Distribution Date, the Company does not beneficially own any shares of common stock of Lvxin and will no longer consolidate Lvxin with its financial results. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, Lvxin’s historical financial results for periods prior to the Distribution Date will be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation (the “Lvxin Discontinued Operations”).

 

The following unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income and cash flow of the Company for the years ended March 31, 2020 are presented as if the divestment had occurred as of April 1, 2019 in that they reflect the reclassification of Lvxin as a Discontinued Operation for all periods presented. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Company as of March 31, 2020 is presented as if the divestment occurred on March 31, 2020.

NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Continued)

 

The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements are presented based on information currently available including certain assumptions and estimates. They are intended for informational purposes only, and do not purport to represent what the Company’s financial position and operating results would have been had the divestment and related events occurred on the dates indicated above, or to project the Company’s financial position or results of operations for any future date or period. Furthermore, they do not reflect all actions that may be undertaken by the Company after the divestment and disposition of Lvxin.

 

The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

 

In the enclosed unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income, cash flow and Balance Sheets, the amounts reflected in the columns presented are described below:

 

Historical Organic Agricultural

 

This column reflects the Company’s historical financial statements for the periods presented and does not reflect any adjustments related to the divestment and related events. The historical Organic Agricultural Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2020 and the Consolidated Statement of Income and cash flow for the year ended March 31, 2020 were derived from the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2020.

 

Lvxin Discontinued Operations

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information related to the Lvxin Discontinued Operations has been prepared in accordance with the discontinued operations guidance in Accounting Standards Codification 205, “Financial Statement Presentation” and therefore does not reflect what the Company’s or Lvxin’s results of operations would have been on a stand-alone basis and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s or Lvxin’s future results of operations. Discontinued Operations do not include any allocation of general corporate overhead expenses of the Company to Lvxin. The information in the Lvxin Discontinued Operations column in the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income was prepared based on the Company’s annual audited financial statements and only include costs that are directly attributable to the operating results of Lvxin.

 

The Company believes that the adjustments included within the Lvxin Discontinued Operations column of the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with the guidance for discontinued operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s current estimates on a discontinued operations basis are preliminary and could change as the Company finalizes the accounting for the discontinued operations to be reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending March 31, 2021.

 

Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The information in the “Pro Forma Adjustments” columns in the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income and the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect additional pro forma adjustments which are further described in the accompanying notes. The Pro Forma Adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable, that reflect the impact of events directly attributable to the divestment that are factually supportable, and for purposes of the Pro Forma Statements of Income, are expected to have a continuing impact on the Company. The Pro Forma Adjustments do not reflect future events that may occur after the divestment.

The COVID-19

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant adverse impact and created many uncertainties related to our business, and we expect that it will continue to do so. The Company is experiencing challenges in sales and has suffered a significant decrease in revenues which has increased financial uncertainty. Our future business outlook and expectations are very uncertain due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak and are very difficult to quantify. It is difficult to assess or predict the impact of this unprecedented event on our business, financial results or financial condition. Factors that will impact the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak affects our business, financial results and financial condition include: the duration, spread and severity of the outbreak; the actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, including government actions to mitigate the economic impact of the outbreak; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, including whether any future outbreaks interrupt economic recovery.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has led government and other authorities to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement, gatherings of large numbers of people, and temporary closure of company operations. The COVID-19 pandemic have led to significant disruptions in our retail, manufacturing and distribution operations and supply chains. In response to COVID-19, we have taken steps to reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, including furloughing of our employees. Such steps, and further changes we may make in the future to reduce our costs, may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain employees. In addition, the Company follow the government’s epidemic prevention provisions to protect employee from COVID-19.

 

The Management of the Company determined that there were no other reportable subsequent events to be adjusted for and/or disclosed as of the date of filing this report.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the material information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management team, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of March 31, 2020. Based on this evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures have the following material weaknesses:

 

  The relatively small number of employees who are responsible for accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system.
     
  Our internal financial staff lack expertise in identifying and addressing complex accounting issued under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

 

  Our Chief Financial Officer is not familiar with the accounting and reporting requirements of a U.S. public company.

 

  We have not developed sufficient documentation concerning our existing financial processes, risk assessment and internal controls.

 

Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective as of March 31, 2020 for the purposes described in this paragraph.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. The Company’s management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the Company’s transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of the Company’s financial statements and that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

19

 

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

 

As of March 31, 2020, our management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as required by Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(c) under the Exchange Act. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992), including the following five framework components: i) control environment, ii) risk assessment, iii) control activities, iv) information and communications, and v) monitoring. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified four material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses consisted of the four material weaknesses identified above under the heading “Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.”

 

Management does not believe that the current level of the Company’s operations warrants a remediation of the weaknesses identified in this assessment. However, because of the above condition, management’s assessment is that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2020.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm as we are a smaller reporting company and not required to provide the report.

 

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as well as its internal control over financial reporting, on an ongoing basis, and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. However, our management cannot guarantee that the measures taken or any future measures will remediate the material weaknesses identified or that any additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described above, our management believes that there are no material inaccuracies or omissions of material fact and, to the best of its knowledge, believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting has come to management’s attention during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

 

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our shares of common stock beneficially owned as of the date hereof for (i) each stockholder known to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) each named executive officer and director, and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. A person is considered to beneficially own any shares: (i) over which such person, directly or indirectly, exercises sole or shared voting or investment power, or (ii) of which such person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time within 60 days through an exercise of stock options or warrants or otherwise. Unless otherwise indicated, voting and investment power relating to the shares shown in the table for our directors and executive officers is exercised solely by the beneficial owner or shared by the owner and the owner’s spouse or children.

 

For purposes of this table, a person or group of persons is deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any shares of common stock that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days as of the date hereof. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock held by each person or group of persons named above, any shares that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days are deemed to be outstanding, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership.

 

The percentage ownership information shown in the table below is calculated based on 11,724,836 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. We do not have any outstanding options, warrants or other securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of our common stock.
