ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Porter Holding International, Inc. (formerly known as Uni Line Corp., “ULNV” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 5, 2013.

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has subsidiaries incorporated in countries and jurisdictions including the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), Hong Kong, and Seychelles As of December 31, 2019, the Company also effectively controls a number of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) through the Primary Beneficiaries, as defined below. The VIEs include:

 

(a)     Shenzhen Porter Warehouse E-Commerce Co. Ltd. (“Porter E-Commerce”);

 

(b)     Shenzhen Porter Shops Lot Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly named Shenzhen Yihuilian Information Consulting Co. Ltd.) (“Porter Consulting”); and

 

(c)     Shenzhen Porter Commercial Perspective Network Co. Ltd. (“Porter Commercial”).

 

As a result of the above contractual arrangements, or the Contractual Arrangements, PGL has substantial control over the VIE Entities’ daily operations and financial affairs, election of their senior executives and all matters requiring shareholder approval. Furthermore, as the primary beneficiary of the VIE Entities, the Company is entitled to consolidate the financial results of the VIE Entities in its own consolidated financial statements under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 and related subtopics related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, or ASC Topic 810.

 

In August 2019, Porter E-Commerce acquired 60% of the equity interest in Shenzhen Qianhai Maihuolang E-commerce Co., Ltd. (“Maihuolang E-commerce”), which is engaged in the business of online E-commerce (See Note 3 – Business combinations). In October 2019, the shareholders of Maihuolang E-commerce resolved that the registered capital from RMB 5,000,000 ($718,205) to RMB 5,263,157 ($756,005), and such increase in registered capital would be contributed by the non-controlling interest shareholder. Consequently, the equity interest in Maihuolang E-commerce owned by the Company was changed to 57%. On July 15, 2020, Porter E-Commerce entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Kezhan Ma, whereby Porter E-Commerce transferred its 57% equity interests in Maihuolang E-Commerce to Mr. Kezhan Ma, for cash consideration of RMB 650,000 (approximately $95,735) which amount is received on July 27, 2020.  The Company did not report the operation of Maihuolang E-commerce as discontinued operation as the sale did not represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. An impairment loss of $51,936 and a disposal gain of $4,730 were recognized.

 

In July 2020, the shareholders of Porter Consulting resolved that the registered capital from RMB 1,000,000 ($147,284) to RMB 1,176,470 ($173,275), and such increase in registered capital would be contributed by the non-controlling interest shareholder. Consequently, the equity interest in Porter Consulting owned by the Company was changed to 85%. Besides, Porter Consulting change from Shenzhen Yihuilian Information Consulting Co. Ltd. to Shenzhen Porter Shops Lot Technology Co., Ltd.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries and VIE entities (collectively referred to as the “Company”) focus its business as an innovative O2O (Online to Offline) business platform operator covering both online E-commerce and offline commercial chain entity of three dimensional synchronous operation together with integrated comprehensive services for merchant clients, service income from organizing and delivering an event and forum, and third-party payment service. The Company provides investment and corporate management consulting services to its clients.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries and its variable interest entities. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. 

  

 

PORTER HOLDING INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In U.S. dollars) 

 

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial information as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have not been included. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, previously filed with the SEC on May 1, 2020.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which are of a normal and recurring nature, have been included. The results reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had working capital deficiency of $2,224,755 as compared to working capital deficiency of $1,037,675 as of December 31, 2019.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $756,103 as compared to $1,084,098 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable, and prepayment and other receivables in the period.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $66,638 as compared to $3,415 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are mainly from proceeds from disposal of investments.

 

Historically, the Company financed its operations through loans from shareholders. The Company’s actions to improve operation efficiency, cost reduction, and develop core cash-generating business include the following: seeking advances from the major shareholders, pursuing additional public and/or private issuance of securities, and looking for strategic business partners to optimize its operations.

 

The Company has considered whether there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern due to (1) its recurring losses from operations, including approximately $1,441,931 net loss attributable to the Company’s stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, (2) its accumulated deficit of approximately $3,642,863 as of September 30, 2020 and (3) the fact that the Company had negative operating cash flows of approximately $756,103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

 

In evaluating if there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, the Company is trying to alleviate the going concern risk through (1) increasing cash generated from operations by controlling operating expenses and expanding more revenue streams, (2) loans from existing directors and shareholders, and (3) equity or debt financing. The Company has certain plans to mitigate these adverse conditions and to increase the liquidity of the Company.

 

On an on-going basis, the Company also received and will continue to receive financial support commitments from the Company’s related parties.

 

The Company’s cash balance as of September 30, 2020 will not be sufficient to support its operations for the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements issued. The Company has several actions to implement as mentioned above. However, if the Company is unable to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms, the Company will be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay debt obligations or respond to competitive market pressures, which will have negative influence upon its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

(In U.S. dollars) 

 

The negative operating results of cash flow and working capital in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continued operations are highly dependent upon its ability to increase revenues and if needed complete equity and/or debt financing.

 

The Company believes if it is unable to obtain its resources to fund operations, it may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its planned operations, which may have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and ability to operate as a going concern.

 

In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, workforces, customers, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including the Company’s. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for the Company’s services and harm its business and results of operations. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on its business or results of operations at this time.

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s cash balance was $34,621 and its current liabilities exceed current assets by $2,224,755 which together with continued losses from operations raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to uncertainties and it is uncertain if the management will be able to achieve profitability and continued growth for the foreseeable future. If the management is not able to increase revenue and manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the Company may not be able to achieve profitability.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Identified below are the accounting policies that reflect the Company’s most significant estimates and judgments, and those that the Company believes are the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has created and may continue to create significant uncertainty in macroeconomic conditions, which may cause further business slowdowns or shutdowns, depress demand for the Company’s business, and adversely impact its results of operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company faced increasing uncertainties around its estimates of revenue collectability and accounts receivable credit losses. The Company expects uncertainties around its key accounting estimates to continue to evolve depending on the duration and degree of impact associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Its estimates may change as new events occur and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

VIE Consolidation

 

The Company’s VIEs with the exception of Weifang Portercity, are wholly owned by Mr. Zonghua Chen and Ms. Xiaomei Xiong as nominee shareholders. For the consolidated VIEs, management made evaluations of the relationships between the Company and the VIEs and the economic benefit flow of contractual arrangements with the VIEs. In connection with such evaluation, management also took into account the fact that, as a result of such contractual arrangements, the Company controls the shareholders’ voting interests in these VIEs. As a result of such evaluation, management concluded that the Company is the primary beneficiary of its consolidated VIEs.

PRC laws and regulations prohibit or restrict foreign ownership of companies that operate Internet information and content, Internet access, online games, mobile, value added telecommunications and certain other businesses in which the Company is engaged or could be deemed to be engaged. Consequently, the Company conducts certain of its operations and businesses in the PRC through its VIEs. The Company consolidates all of the VIEs of which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenues following the five step model prescribed under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer: Due to impact of COVID-19, the Company, starting from first quarter of 2020, determines to receive cash prior to performing investment and corporate management consulting services in order to ensure probable collection of consideration and hence existence of a contract; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers, which may occur at a point in time or over time depending on the terms and conditions of the agreement, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company via Porter Consulting earns commissions of $11,087 and $34,682 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 respectively, primarily from a third-party payment service provider when China UnionPay card transactions are completed and settled. Commissions of $19,801 and $67,902 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 respectively. Revenue related to commissions is recognized in the statement of operation at the time when the underlying transaction is completed.

 

The third-party payment provider is a China UnionPay card acquiring institution and earns processing fees from China UnionPay card transactions. The Company’s performance obligation is to promote, via Porter Consulting, the payment service of the third-party payment service provider to merchants in Shenzhen, for which the Company shares a portion of the processing fees earned by the third-party payment service provider from China UnionPay, as commission.

 

The Company via Portercity provides various consulting services to its clients, especially to those who have the intention to be publicly listed in the stock exchanges in the United States and other countries. The Company categorizes its consulting services into three phases:

 

Phase I consulting services primarily include due diligence review, market research and feasibility study, business plan drafting, accounting record review, and business analysis and recommendations etc. Management estimates that Phase I normally takes around three months to complete based on its past experiences.

 

Phase II consulting services primarily include reorganization, pre-listing education and tutoring, talent search, legal and audit firm recommendation and coordination, VIE contracts and other public-listing related documents review, merger and acquisition planning, investor referral and pre-listing equity financing source identification and recommendation, independent directors and audit committee candidates recommendation; shell company identification and recommendation for customers expecting to become publicly listed through reverse merger transaction; etc. Management estimates that Phase II normally takes about five months to complete based its past experiences.

 

 

PORTER HOLDING INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In U.S. dollars) 

 

Phase III consulting services primarily include assistance in preparation of customers’ registration statement under IPO transactions or Form 8-K under reverse merger transactions; assistance in answering comments and questions received from regulatory agencies etc. Management believes it is very difficult to estimate the timing of this phase of service as the completion of Phase III services is not within the Company’s control.

 

Under ASC Topic 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to perform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. Each phase of consulting services is standalone and fees associated with each phase are usually clearly identified in service agreements. Revenue from providing Phase I and Phase II consulting services to customers is recognized based on the output methods, including surveys of performance completed to date or milestones reached of each phase only when the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Otherwise, such revenue is recognized at a point in time when services are delivered and accepted by customers. Revenue from providing Phase III consulting services to customers is recognized upon completion of reverse merger transaction or IPO transaction, which is evidenced by filing of 8-K for reverse merger transaction or receipt of effective notice from regulatory agencies for IPO transaction. Revenue that has been billed and not yet recognized is reflected as deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Depending on the complexity of the underlying service arrangement and related terms and conditions, significant judgments, assumptions and estimates may be required to determine when substantial delivery of contract elements has occurred, whether any significant ongoing obligations exist subsequent to contract execution, whether amounts due are collectible and the appropriate period or periods in which, or during which, the completion of the earnings process occurs. Depending on the magnitude of specific revenue arrangements, adjustment may be made to the judgments, assumptions and estimates regarding contracts executed in any specific period. Service income from consulting services, totaled $nil and $306,286 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, is recognized when the service is performed. Service income from consulting services, totaled $329,000 and $1,590,010 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Regarding the trading business, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount as commissions in accordance with ASC 606. When the Company is primarily obligated in a transaction, is subject to inventory risk, has latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers, or has several but not all of these indicators, revenues should be recorded on a gross basis. When the Company is not the primary obligor, does not bear the inventory risk and does not have the ability to establish the price, revenues are recorded on a net basis. The Company determined that it is not the primary obligor in its trading business. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a net revenue of $nil and $11,928, when control of the products has transferred, being at the point the products are delivered to the customer and the customer has accepted the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized a net revenue of $18 and $31,684.

 

Starting from the first quarter of 2019, the Company, via PPBGL, Maihuolang E-commerce and Porter Commercial, provides various training services to its clients, primarily related to e-commerce platform operation, expansion of channels and promotion strategy, and capital market operation, via live and online sessions. Under ASC Topic 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to perform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The fees associated with the course of training sessions are clearly identified in service agreements. Training service revenue is recognized at the time when the training sessions stipulated in the contract are completed. The Company recognized $42,447 and $132,090 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company recognized $173 and $308,416 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Practical expedients and exemption

 

The company has not incurred any costs to obtain contracts, and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

 

Other service income is earned when services have been rendered.

Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company and PGL is the United States dollar (“US dollar”). The functional currency of the PPBGL is the Hong Kong dollar. The Company’s subsidiary and VIEs with operations in PRC uses the local currency, the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”), as their functional currencies. 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.

Net loss per share of common stock

 

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” (“EPS”) which requires presentation of basic EPS on the face of the statement of operation for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation. In the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Segments

 

The Company evaluates a reporting unit by first identifying its operating segments, and then evaluates each operating segment to determine if it includes one or more components that constitute a business. If there are components within an operating segment that meets the definition of a business, the Company evaluates those components to determine if they must be aggregated into one or more reporting units. If applicable, when determining if it is appropriate to aggregate different operating segments, the Company determines if the segments are economically similar and, if so, the operating segments are aggregated. The Company has only one major reportable segment in the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring the fair value of financial instruments. This hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three-tier fair value hierarchy is:

 

Level 1 – observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 – include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the market place.

 

Level 3 – unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts and other receivables, other current assets, accounts and other payables, and other short-term liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

 

In accordance with ASC 825, for investments in financial instruments with a variable interest rate indexed to performance of underlying assets, the Company elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carried these investments at fair value. Changes in the fair value are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as other income (expense). To estimate fair value, the Company refers to the quoted rate of return provided by banks at the end of each period using the discounted cash flow method. The Company classifies the valuation techniques that use these inputs as Level 2 of fair value measurements.

 

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no investments in financial instruments.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company allocates goodwill from business combinations to reporting units based on the expectation that the reporting unit is to benefit from the business combination. The Company evaluates its reporting units on an annual basis and, if necessary, reassigns goodwill using a relative fair value allocation approach. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit.

 

Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgments, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If the more likely than not threshold is met, the Company performs a quantitative impairment test.

 

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company performed goodwill impairment testing. Base on the impairment test result per the fact that the considerations to be received for the disposal of 57% ownership of Maihuolang E-Commerce in July 2020 was lower than the related net carrying value, the Company fully impaired the goodwill of $34,145 as of September 30, 2020.

 

Impairment for long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment with finite lives and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recover-ability of the assets based on the non-discounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated discounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $17,791 and $nil of impairment of intangible assets was recognized, respectively. Since the considerations to be received for the disposal of 57% ownership of Maihuolang E-Commerce in July 2020 was lower than the related net carrying value, impairment was made to the intangible assets, on top of the full impairment of goodwill.

 

Apart from intangible assets, the Company recognized no impairment loss for other long-lived assets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the operating lease, the Company generally uses an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU assets”) assets represent the Company’s right to control the use of an identified asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are generally recognized based on the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability. The lease has remaining lease term of approximately four years. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance to combine the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for operating leases associated with the Company’s office space lease, and to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

ROU assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. ROU assets from operating and finance leases are subject to the impairment guidance in ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, as ROU assets are long-lived nonfinancial assets.

 

ROU assets are tested for impairment individually or as part of an asset group if the cash flows related to the ROU asset are not independent from the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An asset group is the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities.

 

The Company recognized no impairment of ROU assets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

The operating lease is included in operating lease right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities-current and operating lease liabilities-non-current on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted 

 

In May 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments— Credit Losses—Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this ASU address those stakeholders’ concerns by providing an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. For those entities, the targeted transition relief will increase comparability of financial statement information by providing an option to align measurement methodologies for similar financial assets. Furthermore, the targeted transition relief also may reduce the costs for some entities to comply with the amendments in Update 2016-13 while still providing financial statement users with decision-useful information. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance but does not expect adoption will have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recent issued accounting standards that will have material impact on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

On August 25, 2019, Porter E-Commerce entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Maihuolang Agreement”) with Mr. Kezhan Ma, former controlling shareholder of Maihuolang E-commerce (“Maihuolang Seller”). Neither Porter E-Commerce nor its affiliates have any material relationship with the Maihuolang Seller other than with respect to the Maihuolang Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Maihuolang Agreement, Porter E-Commerce agreed to acquire 60% of the capital stock of Maihuolang E-commerce collectively held by the Maihuolang Seller, for an aggregate consideration of RMB 1 ($0.1) in cash.

 

The Company’s acquisition of Maihuolang E-commerce was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805. The Company has allocated the purchase price of Maihuolang E-commerce based upon the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. The Company estimated the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date in accordance with the business combination standard issued by the FASB with the valuation methodologies using cost approach. Management of the Company is responsible for determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets identified as of the acquisition date and considered a number of factors including valuations from independent appraisers. Acquisition-related costs incurred for the acquisitions are not material and have been expensed as incurred in general and administrative expense.

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which represents the net purchase price allocation at the date of the acquisition of Maihuolang E-commerce based on a valuation performed by an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company:

On April 13, 2020, Henan Longji Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (“Longji Real Estate”) filed an action against Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan related to certain loan of RMB 2 million (approximately $283,082) which loan occurred before Porter E-Commerce merged with the Company. On May 10, 2020, Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen, Xue’an Yan and Longji Real Estate reached a settlement under which Porter E-Commerce agreed to pay off the loan principal of RMB 2 million in two installments before June 30, 2021 and interest accrued on unpaid principal since January 1, 2020 at a rate of 6% per annum. In addition, under the settlement, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan, the two original shareholders of Porter E-Commerce agreed to be severally and jointly liable for the payoff of the principal and interest of the loan. Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan were also jointly liable for the litigation costs of RMB11,400 (approximately $1,614).

Mr. Kezhan Ma is a 38% minority shareholder of Maihuolang E-commerce. After Porter E-Commerce transferred its 57% equity interests in Maihuolang E-Commerce to Mr. Kezhan Ma on July 15, 2020, Maihuolang E-Commerce was deconsolidated from the Company and Mr. Kezhan Ma was no longer considered as a related party.

 

All the above balances are due on demand, interest-free and unsecured. The Company used the funds for its operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had transactions amounted $3,243,880 from shareholders and $2,760,900 to shareholders, comparing to $6,116,491 from shareholders and $5,405,862 to shareholders for the same period in 2019.

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company is subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled.

 

ULNV is incorporated in the State of Nevada and is subject to the U.S. federal tax and has incurred net operating loss for income tax purposes through September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, future net operating losses of approximately $45,437 from ULNV are available to offset future taxable income. Accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was approximately $3.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

 

The 2017 Tax Act created a new requirement that, for the periods beginning after January 1, 2018, certain income (referred to as global intangible low taxed income or “GILTI”) earned by foreign subsidiaries in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations must be included in U.S. taxable income. The GILTI income is eligible for a deduction, which lowers the effective tax rate to 10.5% for calendar years 2018 through 2025 and 13.125% after 2025. Under U.S. GAAP, companies are allowed to make an accounting policy election to either (i) account for GILTI as a component of tax expense in the period in which a company is subject to the rules – the period cost method, or (ii) account for GILTI in a company’s measurement of deferred taxes – the deferred method. The Company elected to account for GILTI in the period the tax is incurred. The Company did not generate any GILTI during the nine months period ended September 30, 2020.

Management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize these potential tax benefits as these operations will not generate any operating profits in the foreseeable future. As a result, a valuation allowance was provided against the full amount of the potential tax benefits.

CHINA CONTRIBUTION PLAN

 

The Company’s subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs in China participate in a government-mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan pursuant to which certain retirement, medical and other welfare benefits are provided to employees. Chinese labor regulations require the Company’s subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs to pay to the local labor bureau a monthly contribution at a stated contribution rate based on the monthly compensation of qualified employees. The relevant local labor bureau is responsible for meeting all retirement benefit obligations; the Company’s China-based subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs have no further commitments beyond their monthly contributions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s China based subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs contributed a total of $16,221 and $36,815, respectively, to these funds. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s China based subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs contributed a total of $4,959 and $11,838, respectively, to these funds.

OPERATING LEASE

 

The Company has operating leases for its office facilities. The Company's leases have remaining terms of approximately four years. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate, and instead accounts for each separate lease and non-lease component associated with that lease component as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes.

 

The Company subleases certain office space to a third party that has a remaining term of less than 12 months.

 

The following table provides a summary of leases by balance sheet location as of September 30, 2020:

(b)

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, substantially all of the Company’s cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.

 

For the credit risk related to trade accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and, if necessary, maintains reserves for potential credit losses. Historically, such losses have been within management’s expectations.

Overview

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 5, 2013. Our original business plan was to sell freshly squeezed juices from mobile stands in London, United Kingdom, but this business was not successful and we did not generate any revenue from this business. Since 2016, through our VIE entity, Porter Consulting, we have partnered with China Payment Technology Co., Ltd., a third-party online payment service provider (“China Payment”) to promote China Payment’s online payment platform to companies and businesses in Shenzhen and in return share a portion of the processing fees earned by China Payment as commission. Porter Consulting also partners with Shenzhen Xinghua Tongfu Technology Co., Ltd., a third-party online payment service provider (“Shenzhen Tongfu”), whereby Porter Consulting agreed to promote Shenzhen Tongfu’s online payment platform, including the Point of Sale (POS) system, to companies and businesses in China and in return obtain a certain amount of commission based on the volume of trading through such online payment platform.

 

On July 15, 2020, Porter E-Commerce entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Kezhan Ma, whereby Porter E-Commerce transferred its 57% equity interests in Maihuolang E-Commerce to Mr. Kezhan Ma, for cash consideration of RMB 650,000 (approximately $95,735).  An impairment loss of $51,936 and a disposal gain of $4,730 were recognized.

 

Moreover, we have been developing our O2O (Online to Offline) business by serving as an O2O business platform operator that provides both online E-commerce and offline physical business facilities to our merchant customers where they can conduct business and interact with their existing and potential end-consumers face to face. Our goal is to provide one-stop services for our customers through our integrated online and offline platforms. As described fully below, we are developing and offering our O2O products and services including hosting our online marketplaces (www.pt37.com and www.17yugo.com) for our merchant clients to post and sell their products and services online and managing and operating physical business facilities, Porter City, that our online merchant clients can utilize to conduct their businesses offline. We currently focus on merchant clients who are engaged in manufacturing, real estate, trade and financing sectors. In the future, we intend to expand our merchant client base to industries of big data, new materials, new energy, green food and environment protection.

 

According to the development demands and goals of our customers, in 2018, we started to offer a series of services such as business planning, financial guidance, business matching and guidance for listing primarily in the United States. At present, in our customer pool, many small and medium-sized enterprises have gained certain public awareness. They are seeking the potential advantages of being a listed company and striving for obtaining the recognition of international capital to accelerate their corporate expansion. However, many enterprises may not be familiar with the listing requirements, laws and regulations of different capital markets, and the process of obtaining financing from overseas markets.

 

In order to help our customers who intend to access overseas capital markets, we have a team of experienced professionals who have professional knowledge of the listing rules and regulations of various capital markets. We capitalize on our expertise and resources in the capital markets to assist these customers to achieve their goals.

 

Starting from the first quarter of 2019, we via PPBGL provide various training services to our clients, primarily those related to e-commerce platform operation, expansion of channels and promotion strategies, via live and online sessions.

 

During the first half of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused economic slowdowns, depressed demand for the Company’s services, and adversely impacted the Company’s operating results. The Company’s revenue decreased by $1,532,265, or 74.31% for the nine months of 2020, compared to $2,061,992 for the same period of 2019. Therefore, the Company changed to require upfront cash payments prior to performing certain consulting services, in order to enhance collection of accounts receivable. The Company expects uncertainties around its key accounting estimates to continue to evolve depending on the duration and degree of impact associated with the COVID-19.

Revenue, net. Our revenue was $58,794 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $367,553 for the same period last year. Starting from the second quarter of 2018, we commenced providing various consulting services to our customers, especially those who have the intention to be publicly listed primarily on the stock exchanges in the United States, and we received service income from the provision of these consulting services totaled $nil and $329,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The significant decrease was mainly attributable to the impacts of COVID-19 and depressed market demand. Moreover, starting from 2019, the Company provides various training services to its clients, primarily related to e-commerce platform operation, expansion of channels, promotion strategy and capital market operation, via live and online sessions. The service income from providing training services totaled $42,447 and $173 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Through Porter Consulting we also have promoted the payment service of third-party payment service providers to merchants in Shenzhen and in return share a portion of the processing fees earned by such third-party payment service providers as commission. Our commission totaled $11,087 and $19,801 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The approximately 50% decline in commission for the third quarter of 2020 was also the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and nationwide economic slowdowns. Revenues of $nil and $18 were generated from trading business for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Revenue of others were $5,260 and $18,561 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Due to the impact of COVID-19, the Company, starting from the first quarter of 2020, determines to require upfront payments prior to performing investment and corporate management consulting services in order to ensure collection of service fees.

 

Cost of revenue.  Our cost of revenue was $11,570 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $243,240 for the same period last year. Cost of revenue refers to the cost incurred in performing consulting services, third-party payment service and other business. The cost of consulting service arises from shell acquisitions, and legal and accounting advisory service outsourced to third-party service providers. The decrease of cost of revenue is in line with the decrease of revenue.

 

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit was $47,224 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $124,313 for the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) was 80.32% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 33.82% for the same quarter last year. The decrease of gross profit was mainly due to the decrease of business demand and suspension of business as a result of the impacts of COVID-19. 

 

 

General and administrative expenses. As shown below, our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits to our general management, finance and administrative staff, professional fees and other expenses incurred in connection with general operations.  Our general and administrative expenses increased by $149,434 to $604,678 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $455,244 for the same period in 2019. Salary and staff benefits decreased $164,409 due to the reduction of the basic salary as a result of fewer working days than usual as employees had to stay at home caused by COVID-19 since the beginning of 2020. Besides, there was a decrease of legal and professional fees by $9,700, compared to corresponding period in prior year. On the other hand, $336,103 additional allowance for doubtful accounts was reserved during the three months ended September 30, 2020. Due to the impact of COVID-19, the Company encountered further uncertainties in accounts collectability during July and September 2020. This led to addition of allowance for doubtful accounts.

Cost of revenue.  Our cost of revenue was $391,374 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,042,658 for the same period last year. Cost of revenue refers to the cost incurred in performing consulting services, third-party payment service and other business. The cost of consulting service arises from shell acquisitions, and legal and accounting advisory service outsourced to third-party service providers. The decrease of cost of revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is in line with the decrease of revenue.

 

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit was $138,353 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,019,334 for the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) was 26.12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 49.43% for the same quarter last year. The decrease of gross profit was mainly due to the decrease of business demand and suspension of business as a result of the impacts of COVID-19. 

 

General and administrative expenses. As shown below, our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits to our general management, finance and administrative staff, professional fees and other expenses incurred in connection with general operations. Our general and administrative expenses increased by $12,877 to $1,631,213 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,618,336 for the same period in 2019. Salary and staff benefits decreased $494,165 due to the reduction of the basic salary as a result of fewer working days than usual as employees had to stay at home caused by COVID-19 since the beginning of 2020. Besides, there was a decrease of legal and professional fees by $23,812 and an increase of lease and management fee by $45,040, respectively, compared to corresponding period in prior year. On the other hand, $481,928 additional allowance for doubtful accounts was reserved during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Due to the impact of COVID-19, the Company encountered further uncertainties in accounts collectability during July and August 2020, and hence brought legal actions in attempt to recover the accounts receivable. This led to addition of allowance for doubtful accounts.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

 

There is limited historical financial information about us on which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, a narrow client base, limited sources of revenue, and possible cost overruns due to the price and cost increases in supplies and services.

 

Without additional funding, management believes that we will not have sufficient funds to meet our obligations beyond one year after the date our condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. 

 

We have been, and intend to continue, working toward identifying and obtaining new sources of financing. To date we have been dependent on related parties for our source of funding. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing in the future. Any future financing that we may obtain may cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to common stock that we are able to obtain will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict our flexibility. Any failure to comply with these covenants would have a negative impact on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate portions of our operations or obtain funds through arrangements with strategic partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our assets. Accordingly, the inability to obtain such financing could result in a significant loss of ownership and/or control of our assets and could also adversely affect our ability to fund our continued operations and our expansion efforts.

 

Currently, we spend approximately $200,000 per month for basic operations. During the next 12 months, we expect to incur the same amount of expenses each month. However, as we work to expand our operations, we expect to incur significant research, marketing and development costs and expenses on our online service platforms that meet the constantly evolving industry standards and consumer demands. We will also need to hire additional employees in order to provide new services and accommodate new clients.

As of September 30, 2020, we had cash of $34,621. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through borrowings from our stockholders, related and unrelated parties.

 

Going Concern Uncertainties

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2020, we had working capital deficiency of $2,224,755 as compared to working capital deficiency of $1,037,675 as of December 31, 2019.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $756,103 as compared to $1,084,098 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable, and prepayment and other receivables in the period.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $66,638 as compared to $3,415 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was mainly from proceeds from disposal of investments.

 

 

As of September 30, 2020, our cash balance was $34,621 and our current liabilities exceed current assets by $2,224,755 which together with continued losses from operations raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to uncertainties and it is uncertain if the management will be able to achieve profitability and continued growth for the foreseeable future. If the management is not able to increase revenue and manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the Company may not be able to achieve profitability.

 

Historically, the Company financed its operations through loans from shareholders. The Company’s actions to improve operation efficiency, cost reduction, and develop core cash-generating business include the following: seeking advances from the major shareholders, pursuing additional public and/or private issuance of securities, and looking for strategic business partners to optimize our operations.

 

We have considered whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to (1) our recurring losses from operations, including approximately $1,441,931 net loss attributable to our stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, (2) our accumulated deficit of approximately $3,642,863 as of September 30, 2020 and (3) the fact that we had negative operating cash flows of approximately $756,103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

 

In evaluating if there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, we are trying to alleviate the going concern risk through (1) increasing cash generated from operations by controlling operating expenses and increasing more live events, (2) financing from domestic banks and other financial institutions, and (3) equity or debt financing. We have certain plans to mitigate these adverse conditions and to increase the liquidity of the Company.

 

On an on-going basis, the Company also received and will continue to receive financial support commitments from the Company’s related parties.

 

Our cash balance as of September 30, 2020 will not be sufficient to support our operations for the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements issued. We have several actions to implement as mentioned above. However, if we are unable to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis and on acceptable terms, we will be unable to implement our current plans for expansion, repay debt obligations or respond to competitive market pressures, which will have negative influence upon our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 

 

The negative operating results of cash flow and working capital in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our continued operations are highly dependent upon our ability to increase revenues and if needed complete equity and/or debt financing.

 

We believe if we are unable to obtain our resources to fund operations, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our planned operations, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and ability to operate as a going concern.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $756,103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $1,084,098 net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was mainly due to our net loss of $1,464,634, an increase in bad debt expense of $498,018, accruals and other payables of $125,212 and deferred revenue of $63,361, partially offset by the decrease in operating lease liabilities of $221,963 and tax payable of $44,614. The net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was mainly due to our net loss of $603,359, an increase in accounts receivable of $326,789, an increase in prepayments and other receivables of $543,046 and a decrease in operating lease liability of $165,960, partially offset by the increase in accruals and other payables of $166,934 and deferred revenue of $136,190.

 

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash provided by investing activities was $66,638 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $3,415 net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was attributable to the purchase of $3,548 of equipment, $20,021 of intangible assets and $90,207 proceeds from disposal of investments. The net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was mainly attributable to the business combination of Maihuolang E-commerce.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $554,482, as compared to $718,381 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we obtained proceeds from sales of non-controlling interests of $71,502, advances of $3,243,880 from shareholders and repaid $2,760,900 to shareholders. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we obtained advances of $6,116,491 from shareholders and repaid $5,405,862 to shareholders, advances of $301,625 from related parties and repaid $293,873 to related parties.

 

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

 

We had the following contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of September 30, 2020:

Total

  $ 2,441,988     $ 2,126,740     $ 315,248     $ -     $ -  

 

We believe that our current cash and financing from our existing stockholders are adequate to support operations for the next 12 months. We may, however, in the future, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our business or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We incurred capital expenditures of $23,569 and $1,548 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. There were no other material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on May 1, 2020.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020. Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

 

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer.  Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of September 30, 2020 due to the following material weaknesses that our management identified in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020:

 

(1)    We did not hold shareholders meetings during the last fiscal year;

(2)    We do not have an audit committee;

(3)    We do not have sufficient and skilled accounting personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge and experience in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States commensurate with our financial reporting requirements;

(4)   We do not have appropriate policies and procedures in place to evaluate the proper accounting and disclosures of key documents and agreements of revenue process;

(5)    We have not maintained sufficient internal controls over cash related controls, including failure to segregate cash handling and accounting functions and did not require dual signature on the Company’s bank accounts. Alternatively, the effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that we had limited transactions in our bank accounts; and

(6)    We retain copies of all financial data and material agreements; however, there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of our data or off-site storage of data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors. We did not implement appropriate information technology controls.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely basis.

 

We plan to take steps to remediate these material weaknesses as soon as practicable by implementing a plan to improve our internal control over financial reporting including, but not limited to, hiring additional staff and/or outside consultants experienced in US GAAP financial reporting as well as in SEC reporting requirements.  Our management team will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements.

 

Our management does not believe that these material weaknesses had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations or caused our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2020 to contain a material misstatement.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Except for the matters described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business. Other than the legal proceedings set forth below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results:

 

On April 13, 2020, Henan Longji Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (“Longji Real Estate”) filed an action against Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan related to certain loan of RMB 2 million (approximately $283,082) which loan occurred before Porter E-Commerce merged with the Company. On May 10, 2020, Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen, Xue’an Yan and Longji Real Estate reached a settlement under which Porter E-Commerce agreed to pay off the loan principal of RMB 2 million in two installments before June 30, 2021 and interest accrued on unpaid principal since January 1, 2020 at a rate of 6% per annum. In addition, under the settlement, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan, the two original shareholders of Porter E-Commerce agreed to be severally and jointly liable for the payoff of the principal and interest of the loan. Porter E-Commerce, Zongjian Chen and Xue’an Yan were also jointly liable for the litigation costs of RMB11,400 (approximately $1,614).
