(3) Estimated assuming that all 4,794,500 shares are sold at the same price. This number of shares is limited by Rule 415, however the share prices may increase over the life of the agreements and this registration, such that prices could cumulate to $10,000,000 (the contractual limitation) if a large number of shares are sold at significantly higher prices than currently exist.

 

(4) As of August 4, 2017, the Company had 41,082,982 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. These 4,794,500 shares represent 11.67% of the number of currently outstanding shares.

Additionally, as of the date of this Registration Statement, these 4,794,500 shares represent 33.3% of the current float.

 

The registrant hereby amends this registration statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this registration statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 or until the registration statement shall become effective on such date as the Securities and Exchange Commission acting pursuant to said section 8(a) may determine.

 

 

 

 
 

 

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 to PHI GROUP, INC.’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, File No. 333-219769, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2017 (the “Form S-1”), is to respond to the comment letter dated September 13, 2017 by the Securities and Exchange regarding the afore-mentioned Form S-1 and to provide the requested information with respect to comments No. 1, 2 and 3 in the referenced comment letter.

 

1.            Please check the box on the registration statement cover page to indicate that the securities being registered are to be offered on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415.

 

Answer: The pertinent box on the registration statement cover page has been checked.

 

2.           We note your response to our prior comment 2. We further note your disclosures on pages 14 and 15 where you provide updated disclosure on recent sales of unregistered securities, starting from June 23, 2017. The new issuances represent a total of 25,244,387 shares of your common stock, which when added to the previous 15,088,595 provides a total of 40,332,982 as of August 4, 2017. Please tell us how to reconcile this total with the 41,082,982 shares of common stock you disclosed in the prospectus, including whether you issued an additional 750,000 shares of common stock in a private placement.

 

Answer: Due to oversight, we did not mention in the section regarding “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities” in the Registration Statement filed August 7, 2017 that on April 6, 2017, Auctus Fund LLC converted $20,651.71 principal amount of the convertible promissory note dated August 16, 2016 together with $3,498.29 of accrued and unpaid interest thereto, totaling $24,150, into 750,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. We have included the 750,000 shares issued to Auctus Fund, LLC in this Amendment No.1 of the Registration Statement.

 

3.           We note your response to comment 4 where you indicate that the Investment Agreement has been revised to eliminate the possibility of assignment. We continue to note inconsistencies between your disclosure in the prospectus and the terms of the Investment Agreement. For example only, Section 4(C) of the Investment Agreement states that “as of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock with $0.001 par value per share, as of March 3, 2017, 14,844,255 shares were issued and outstanding….” and Section 4(D) of the Investment Agreement states that you have reserved 20,000,000 shares for issuance pursuant to the Agreement. These provisions are inconsistent with your disclosure throughout the prospectus where you state that you have 900,000,000 shares of common stock authorized, 41,082,982 shares issued and outstanding as of August 4, 2017, and you will have an obligation to issue 65,445,000 shares under the Investment Agreement. Please revise to make your disclosure in the prospectus and the Investment Agreement consistent in all material respect.

 

Answer: Due to oversight we did not update the amounts of authorized capital, shares issued and outstanding and shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Investment Agreement in the revised Investment Agreement filed with the Registration Statement filed on August 7, 2017. As of August 4, 2017, the correct amount of authorized capital was 900,000,000 shares of Common Stock; the correct amount of common stock issued and outstanding was 41,082,982 shares; and the correct amount of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Investment Agreement was 65,445,000 shares. We have updated the pertinent information in the Investment Agreement to make our disclosure in the prospectus and the Investment Agreement consistent in all material respect.

 

No other changes have been made to the Form S-1, except the closing stock price of the company as of September 14, 2017, which was $0.0597, and the amount of shares issued and outstanding of the company as of September 15, 2017, which was 41,082,982. This Amendment No. 1 to the Form S-1 speaks as of the original filing date of the Form S-1, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date, and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the original Form S-1.

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. We may not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective.

Subject to Completion, Dated September 15 , 2017

 

Prospectus

 

 

PHI GROUP, INC.

 

4,794,500 Shares

Common Stock

 

This prospectus relates to the offer and resale of up to 4,794,500 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, by the selling stockholder, Azure Capital, Inc., or “Azure”. Azure has agreed to purchase up to $10,000,000 in share value pursuant to the investment agreement dated August 3, 2017 between Azure and us. Subject to the terms and conditions of such investment agreement, which is referred to in this prospectus as the “Investment Agreement,” we have the right to put up to $10,000,000 million in shares of our common stock to Azure. This arrangement is sometimes referred to as an “Equity Line.” For more information on the selling stockholder, please see the section of this prospectus entitled “Selling Stockholder”.

 

As of September 15 , 2017, the Company had 41,082,982 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The 4,794,500 shares represent 11.67 % of the number of currently outstanding shares. Upon issuance of these shares, the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock will be 45,877,482 and the registered shares will then represent 10.45 % of those shares. Additionally, as of the date of this Registration Statement, these 4,794,500 shares represent 33.3 % of the current float.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of these shares of common stock offered by Azure. We will, however, receive proceeds from the sale of shares to Azure pursuant to the Equity Line. When we put an amount of shares to Azure, the per share purchase price that Azure will pay to us in respect of such put will be determined in accordance with a formula set forth in the Investment Agreement. Generally, in respect of each put, Azure will pay us a per share purchase price equal to ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the five (5) consecutive trading day period beginning on the trading day immediately following the date of delivery of the applicable put notice.

 

Azure may sell the shares of common stock from time to time at the prevailing market price on the OTCQB market, or on an exchange if our shares of common stock become listed for trading on such an exchange, or in negotiated transactions. Azure is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in connection with the resale of our common stock under the Equity Line. For more information, please see the section of this prospectus entitled “Plan of Distribution”.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB market under the symbol “PHIL”. The last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB market on September 14 , 2017 was $0.0597 per share.

 

Investing in the offered securities involves a high degree of risk, including those risks set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus, as well as those set forth in any prospectus supplement.

 

We will be responsible for all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and filing of this registration statement, provided, however, we will not be required to pay any underwriters’ discounts or commissions relating to the securities covered by the registration statement.

 

You should read this prospectus and any prospectus supplement carefully before you decide to invest. You should not assume that the information in this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of this document.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

The date of this prospectus is September 15, 2017

PHI GROUP, INC.

 

Depending upon the context, the terms “PHIL,” “PHI Group, Inc,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us,” refers to either PHI Group, Inc. alone or PHI Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries collectively.

 

Organizational History

 

PHI Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “PHI”) is a Nevada corporation engaged in mergers and acquisitions as a principal ( www.phiglobal.com ). The Company has adopted plans to acquire established operating businesses in selective industries and invest in various ventures that may potentially create significant long-term value for our shareholders.

Background

 

Originally incorporated in June 1982 as JR Consulting, Inc., the Company was foremost engaged in mergers and acquisitions and had an operating subsidiary, Diva Entertainment, Inc., which operated two modeling agencies, one in New York and one in California.

In October 2000, Providential Securities withdrew its securities brokerage membership and ceased its financial services business. Subsequently, in April 2009, the Company changed its name to PHI Group, Inc. From October 2000 to October 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries were engaged in mergers and acquisitions advisory and consulting services, real estate and hospitality development, mining, oil and gas, telecommunications, technology, healthcare, private equity, and special situations.

Investment Agreement

 

We entered into the Investment Agreement with Azure on August 3, 2017. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, Azure committed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of our common stock, over the course of 36 months. The obligations of Azure as imposed by the terms of this agreement are non-transferrable. The aggregate number of shares issuable by us and purchasable by Azure under the Investment Agreement is 65,445,000 (estimated using the reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share). To date, we have sold none of the available shares.

 

We may draw on the facility from time to time, as and when we determine appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum amount that we are entitled to put in any one notice is the greater of (i) 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the common stock for the three (3) trading days prior to the date of delivery of the applicable put notice, multiplied by the average of the closing prices for such trading days or (ii) $250,000. The purchase price shall be set at ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily VWAP of our common stock during the Pricing Period. However, if, on any trading day during a Pricing Period, the daily VWAP of the common stock is lower than the floor price specified by us in the put notice, then we will withdraw that portion of the put amount for each such trading day during the Pricing Period, with only the balance of such put amount above the minimum acceptable price being put to Azure. There are put restrictions applied on days between the put notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, we are not entitled to deliver another put notice.

 

  8  
 

 

There are circumstances under which we will not be entitled to put shares to Azure, including the following:

 

  we will not be entitled to put shares to Azure unless there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act to cover the resale of the shares by Azure;
     
  we will not be entitled to put shares to Azure unless our common stock continues to be quoted on the OTCQB market, or becomes listed on a national securities exchange;
     
  we will not be entitled to put shares to Azure to the extent that such shares would cause Azure’s beneficial ownership to exceed 4.99% of our outstanding shares; and
     
  we will not be entitled to put shares to Azure prior to the closing date of the preceding put.

 

The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and Azure are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for any losses or liabilities we or it suffers as a result of any breach by the other of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or our registration rights agreement with Azure, or as a result of any lawsuit brought by a third-party arising out of or resulting from the other party’s execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Investment Agreement or the registration rights agreement.

 

The Investment Agreement also contains representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. In addition, certain representations and warranties were made as of a specific date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from what a stockholder or investor might view as material, or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk between the respective parties rather than establishing matters as facts.

 

In connection with the preparation of the Investment Agreement and the registration rights agreement, we issued Azure a check for $5,000 and a convertible promissory note for $15,000, having a conversion price equal to $0.03 per share.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, dated August 3, 2017, between Azure and us, we are obligated to file one or more registration statements with the SEC to register the resale by Azure of shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. The aggregate number of shares registered prior to this registration statement is zero. We have agreed that, in the event that this registration fails to register all of the shares necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations, we will amend this statement and file new registration statements. This registration process will continue until such time as all of the dollar amounts available under the credit line, using shares of common stock issuable under the Investment Agreement, have been registered for resale on effective registration statements. In no event will we be obligated to register for resale more than $10,000,000 in value of shares of common stock, or 65,445,000 shares (estimated using the reported sale price of our common stock on the OTC market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share).

 

RISK FACTORS

 

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

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industries

 

Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.

 

Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.

 

Our strategy in mergers and acquisitions involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.

 

  9  
 

 

The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies, assets and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

 

Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:

 

  failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results;
  diversion of management’s attention;
  failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business;
  additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both;
  the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and
  the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities.

 

These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.

 

As some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia and Eastern, any adverse change to the economy or business environment in these countries could significantly affect our operations, which would lead to lower revenues and reduced profitability.

 

Some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe. Because of this presence in specific geographic locations, we are susceptible to fluctuations in our business caused by adverse economic or other conditions in this region, including stock market fluctuation. A stagnant or depressed economy in these countries generally, or in any of the other markets that we serve, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Risks Associated with Energy Business

 

As part of our core business involves acquisitions of energy assets as well as production and trading of energy commodities, our profitability will depend on the prices we receive for energy commodities such as coal and wood pellets. These prices are dependent upon factors beyond our control, including: the strength of the global economy; the demand for electricity; the global supply of thermal coal and biomass products; weather patterns and natural disasters; competition within our industry and the availability and price of alternatives, including natural gas; the proximity, capacity and cost of transportation; coal industry capacity; domestic and foreign governmental regulations and taxes, including those establishing air emission standards for coal-fueled power plants or mandating increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources; regulatory, administrative and judicial decisions, including those affecting future mining permits; and technological developments, including those intended to convert coal-to-liquids or gas and those aimed at capturing and storing carbon dioxide.

 

Risks Related to Our Securities

 

Insiders have substantial control over the company, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control, even if our other stockholders wanted such a change to occur.

 

  10  
 

 

Our executive officers and directors as of August 4, 2017, in the aggregate, hold approximately 64.98% of our outstanding common stock, and our Board of Directors is also able to decide the rights and terms associated with the Company’s Preferred Stock, which decision may allow the Board of Directors to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

 

The price at which investors purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the prevailing market price.

 

The stock market often experiences significant price fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stock is traded. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our shares. Investors may be unable to sell their shares of common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.

 

Since we do not currently meet the requirements for our stock to be quoted on NASDAQ, NYSE MKT LLC or any other senior exchange, the tradability in our securities will be limited under the penny stock regulations.

 

Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if the price of our securities on the OTCQB market is below $5.00 per share, our securities are within the definition of a “penny stock.” As a result, it is possible that our securities may be subject to the “penny stock” rules and regulations. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. These regulations require broker-dealers to:

 

*Make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser;

*Receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction; and

*Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.

 

These requirements may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability to resell our securities.

 

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us.

 

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded companies to obtain.

 

Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.

 

Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management and founder. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.

 

Risks Related to this Offering

 

We are registering the resale of a maximum of 4,794,500 shares of common stock, all of which may be issued to Azure under the Equity Line. The resale of such shares by Azure could depress the market price of our common stock.

 

We are registering the resale of a maximum of 4,794,500 shares of common stock under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The sale of these shares into the public market by Azure could depress the market price of our common stock. As of August 4, 2017 and September 15, 2017, there were 41,082,982 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. In total, we may issue up to 65,445,000 shares (estimated using the reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share) to Azure pursuant to the Equity Line, meaning that, we are obligated to file one or more registration statements covering the shares remaining of the eligible 65,445,000 shares not covered by the registration statement. The sale of those additional shares into the public market by Azure could further depress the market price of our common stock. We entered into an agreement with Dutchess Capital, a forerunner of Azure, in 2002, which did not progress to a registration statement and was subsequently cancelled. We do not believe that this agreement has any impact on the valuation of the Company today or on its trading price.

Existing Stockholders Could Experience Substantial Dilution Upon the Issuance of Common Stock Pursuant to the Equity Line

 

Our Equity Line with Azure contemplates our issuance of up to 65,445,000 shares (estimated using the reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share) of our common stock to Azure, subject to certain restrictions and obligations. If the terms and conditions of the Equity Line are satisfied, and we choose to exercise our put rights to the fullest extent permitted and sell all 65,445,000 shares of our common stock to Azure, our existing stockholders’ ownership will be diluted by such sales. Unless our stock price recovers and we trade at much higher prices, we may not be able or may not choose to access the entirety of the $10,000,000 possibly available under the Equity Line. However, we view the availability of such an extensive resource to be valuable to us at this stage of our growth.

 

Azure Will Pay Less Than the Then-Prevailing Market Price for Our Common Stock Under the Equity Line

 

The common stock to be issued to Azure pursuant to the Investment Agreement will be purchased at a 6% discount to the volume weighted average price of our common stock during the five consecutive trading day period beginning on the trading day immediately following the date of delivery of a put notice by us to Azure, subject to certain exceptions. Therefore, Azure has a financial incentive to sell our common stock upon receiving the shares to realize the profit equal to the difference between the discounted price and the market price. If Azure sells the shares, the price of our common stock could decrease.

 

We May Not Be Able to Access Sufficient Funds Under the Equity Line When Needed

 

Our ability to put shares to Azure and obtain funds under the Equity Line is limited by the terms and conditions in the Investment Agreement, including restrictions on when we may exercise our put rights, restrictions on the amount we may put to Azure at any one time, which is determined in part by the trading volume of our common stock, and a limitation on our ability to put shares to Azure to the extent that it would cause Azure to beneficial own more than 4.99% of our outstanding shares. In addition, we do not expect the Equity Line to satisfy all of our funding needs, even if we are able and choose to take full advantage of the Equity Line.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of our common stock offered by Azure. However, we will receive proceeds from the sale of our common stock to Azure pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The proceeds from our exercise of the put option pursuant to the Investment Agreement will be used to support the commercialization of our current and future product candidates, for general working capital needs, for the reduction of indebtedness and for other purposes that our board of directors, in its good faith, deems to be in our best interest.

 

All net proceeds from the sale of the common stock covered by this prospectus will go to the selling stockholder. See “Selling Stockholder” and “Plan of Distribution” described below.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

The information provided in the table and discussions below has been obtained from the selling stockholder. The table below identifies the selling stockholder and shows the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by it before and after this offering, and the numbers of shares offered for resale by the selling stockholder. Our registration of these shares does not necessarily mean that the selling stockholder will sell all or any of their shares of common stock. However, the “Shares Beneficially Owned After Offering” columns in the table assume that all shares covered by this prospectus will be sold by the selling stockholder and that no additional shares of common stock will be bought or sold by the selling stockholder. No estimate can be given as to the number of shares that will be held by the selling stockholder after completion of this offering because the selling stockholder may offer some or all of the shares and, to our knowledge, there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understanding with respect to the sale of any of the shares. In addition, the selling stockholder may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time or from time to time since the date on which it provided the information regarding the shares, all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

The following table sets forth the name of the selling stockholder, an if applicable, the nature of any position, office, or other material relationship which the selling stockholder has had, within the past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates, the amount of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the stockholder prior to the offering, the amount being offered for the stockholder’s account, the amount being offered for the stockholder’s account and the amount to be owned by such stockholder after completion of the offering.

The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act and is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Applicable percentage ownership is based on 41,082,982 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 4, 2017 and September 15, 2017. Except as otherwise noted, we believe that the stockholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by it, subject to applicable community property laws.

 

(2) Azure is a Massachusetts Corporation. Douglas H. Leighton is the sole owner of Azure Capital with voting and investment power over the shares.

EB-5 IMMIGRATION INVESTOR PROGRAM

 

The Company has filed an I-924 application with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) for the PHI Group EB5 Regional Center, LLC in order to raise capital through the EB-5 Immigration Investor Program in connection with the Company’s organic farming program, Abundant Farms, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and other potential business activities in the State of Florida. Under the EB-5 Program, created by Congress to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment, foreign entrepreneurs (and their spouses and unmarried children under 21) are eligible to apply for a Green Card (permanent residence) if they make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States that creates or preserves at least 10 permanent, full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers. The operation of this Regional Center is subject to the review and approval of United States Citizenship and Immigration Service.

 

COMPANY’S PLAN OF OPERATION FOR THE FOLLOWING 12 MONTHS

 

In the next twelve months the Company intends to continue pursuing its merger and acquisition program by acquiring all or controlling interests in target companies in a number of industries, including but not limited to energy, natural resources, agribusiness, technology, transportation, consumer goods, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, the Company also plans to invest in special situations that may potentially generate significant revenues and profitability for the Company in the short term. We believe that by closing one or more sizable acquisitions we will be able to build a critical mass and uplist to the Nasdaq Stock Market or NYSE in the near future. Moreover, we will continue to provide advisory and consulting services to international clients through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. The Company anticipates generating substantial amounts of revenues through the merger and acquisition program, investment in special situations, and advisory services mentioned herein. However, no assurances could be made that management would be successful in achieving its plan. The president and chairman of the Company has committed to funding the Company’s operations from various sources for the next 12 months.

 

FINANCIAL PLANS

 

MATERIAL CASH REQUIREMENTS: We must raise substantial amounts of capital to fulfill our plan of acquiring energy-related and natural resource assets as well as investing in special situations as part of our scope of business. We intend to use equity, debt and project financing to meet our capital needs for acquisitions and investments.

 

Management has taken action and formulated plans to strengthen the Company’s working capital position and generate sufficient cash to meet its operating needs through June 30, 2018 and beyond. The working capital cash requirements for the next 12 months are expected to be generated from operations, sale of marketable securities and additional financing. The Company plans to generate revenues from its consulting services, merger and acquisition advisory services, and acquisitions of target companies with cash flows.

 

AVAILABLE FUTURE FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS: The Company may use various sources of funds, including short-term loans, long-term debt, equity capital, and project financing as may be necessary. The Company believes it will be able to secure the required capital to implement its business plan; however, no assurances could be made that management would be successful in achieving its plan.

 

Equity Financing Arrangements

 

On August 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (“Investment Agreement”) with Azure Capital (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investor committed to purchase up to $10,000,000 of the Company’s common stock over thirty-nine months (the “Equity Line”). The aggregate number of shares issuable by the Company and purchasable by Azure under the Investment Agreement is 65,445,000 (estimated using the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share). The Company may draw on the facility from time to time, as and when it determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum amount that the Company is entitled to put in any one notice is the greater of (i) 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the common stock for the three (3) trading days prior to the date of delivery of the applicable put notice, multiplied by the average of the closing prices for such trading days or (ii) $250,000. The purchase price shall be set at ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily VWAP of the Company’s common stock during the Pricing Period. However, if, on any trading day during a Pricing Period, the daily volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the common stock is lower than the floor price specified by us in the put notice, then the Company reserves the right, to withdraw that portion of the put amount for each such trading day during the Pricing Period, with only the balance of such put amount above the minimum acceptable price being put to Azure. There are put restrictions applied on days between the put notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, the Company is not entitled to deliver another put notice.

 

  24  
 

 

There are circumstances under which the Company will not be entitled to put shares to Azure, including the following:

 

●        the Company will not be entitled to put shares to Azure unless there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act to cover the resale of the shares by Azure;

 

●        the Company will not be entitled to put shares to Azure unless its common stock continues to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, or becomes listed on a national securities exchange;

 

●        the Company will not be entitled to put shares to Azure to the extent that such shares would cause Azure’ beneficial ownership to exceed 4.99% of our outstanding shares; and

 

●        the Company will not be entitled to put shares to Azure prior to the closing date of the preceding put.

 

The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and Azure are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for any losses or liabilities we or it suffers as a result of any breach by the other of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or our registration rights agreement with Azure, or as a result of any lawsuit brought by a third-party arising out of or resulting from the other party’s execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Investment Agreement or the registration rights agreement.

 

The Investment Agreement also contains representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. In addition, certain representations and warranties were made as of a specific date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from what a stockholder or investor might view as material, or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk between the respective parties rather than establishing matters as facts.

 

The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Azure on August 3, 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file one or more registration statements with the SEC to register the resale by Azure of shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. This registration process will continue until such time as all of the dollar amounts available under the credit line, using shares of common stock issuable under the Investment Agreement, have been registered for resale on effective registration statements. In no event will the Company be obligated to register for resale more than $10,000,000 in value of shares of common stock, or 65,445,000 shares (estimated using the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB market on August 3, 2017 of $0.1528 per share).

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The purpose of this prospectus is to permit the selling stockholder to offer and resell up to 4,794,500 shares of our common stock at such times and at such places as it chooses. To the extent required, we may amend and supplement this prospectus from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. The decision to sell any shares offered pursuant to this prospectus is within the sole discretion of the selling stockholder.

 

The distribution of the common stock by the selling stockholder may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions. Any of the common stock may be offered for sale, from time to time, by the selling stockholder at prices and on terms then obtainable, at fixed prices, at prices then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing prices, or in negotiated transactions at negotiated prices or otherwise. The common stock may be sold by one or more of the following:

 

On the OTCQB or any other national common stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our common stock is traded, which may involve transactions solely between a broker-dealer and its customers which are not traded across an open market and block trades.
   
Through one or more dealers or agents (which may include one or more underwriters), including, but not limited to:
   
Block trades in which the broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus.
   
Purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus.
   
Ordinary brokerage transactions.
   
Transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers.
   
Directly to one or more purchasers.
   
A combination of these methods.

 

Azure and any broker-dealers who act in connection with the sale of its shares are “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts, concessions or commissions received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal may be deemed to be underwriting discounts, concessions and commissions under the Securities Act. Because the selling stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder.

 

  29  
 

 

The selling stockholder or its underwriters, dealers or agents may sell the common stock to or through underwriters, dealers or agents, and such underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed. Underwriters, dealers, brokers or other agents engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other such persons to participate. Any fixed public offering price and any discounts and concessions may be changed from time to time. Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts or commissions received by them or any profit on the resale of shares by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions thereunder. The proposed amounts of the common stock, if any, to be purchased by underwriters and the compensation, if any, of underwriters, dealers or agents will be set forth in a prospectus supplement.

 

Unless granted an exemption by the SEC from Regulation M under the Exchange Act, or unless otherwise permitted under Regulation M, the selling stockholder will not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our common stock, will furnish each broker or dealer engaged by the selling stockholder and each other participating broker or dealer the number of copies of this prospectus required by such broker or dealer, and will not bid for or purchase any common stock of our or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of the common stock other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholder. We shall use our reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the registration statement and this prospectus as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the common stock covered by the registration statement for the period required to effect the distribution of such common stock.

 

We are paying certain expenses (other than commissions and discounts of underwriters, dealers or agents) incidental to the offering and sale of the common stock to the public. If we are required to update this prospectus during such period, we may incur additional expenses in excess of the amount estimated above. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, subject to certain exceptions.

 

In order to comply with certain state securities laws, if applicable, the common stock will be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In certain states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of PHI Group Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PHI Group Inc., (“Company”) as of June 30, 2016, and 2015, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended June 30, 2016.

 

PHI Group, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

 

The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

 

Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PHI Group, Inc., as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended June 30, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 21, the Company has accumulated deficit of $37,774,842 and total liabilities and stockholders’ deficit of $753,990 as of June 30, 2016, and a negative cash flow from operations amounting to $7,998 for the year ended June 30, 2016. These factors as discussed in Note 21 of the consolidated financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Managements’ plan in regard to these matters are also described in Note 21. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PHI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(FORMERLY PROVIDENTIAL HOLDINGS, INC.)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

PHI Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “PHI”) is a Nevada corporation engaged in mergers and acquisitions as a principal ( www.phiglobal.com ). The Company has adopted plans to acquire established operating businesses in selective industries and invest in various ventures that may potentially create significant long-term value for our shareholders. In addition, we also provide corporate finance services, including merger and acquisition advisory and consulting services for client companies through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. ( www.phicapitalholdings.com ). No assurances can be made that the Company will be successful in achieving its plans.

 

Originally incorporated in June 1982 as JR Consulting, Inc., the Company was foremost engaged in mergers and acquisitions and had an operating subsidiary, Diva Entertainment, Inc., which operated two modeling agencies, one in New York and one in California. Following the business combination with Providential Securities, Inc., a California-based brokerage firm, in late 1999, the Company changed its name to Providential Securities, Inc. (Nevada) in January 2000. The Company then changed its name to Providential Holdings, Inc. in February 2000. In October 2000, Providential Securities withdrew its securities brokerage membership and ceased its financial services business. Subsequently, in April 2009, the Company changed its name to PHI Group, Inc. From October 2000 to October 2011, the Company was engaged in mergers and acquisitions advisory and consulting services, real estate and hospitality development, mining, oil and gas, telecommunications, technology, healthcare, private equity, and special situations. In October 2011, the Company discontinued the operations of Providential Vietnam Ltd., Philand Ranch Limited, a United Kingdom corporation, (together with its subsidiaries Philand Ranch - Singapore, Philand Corporation (US), and Philand Vietnam Ltd.), PHI Gold Corporation (formerly PHI Mining Corporation), and PHI Energy Corporation, and began to mainly focus on acquisition and development opportunities in energy and natural resource businesses. Starting July 2016, the Company has engaged Milost Advisors, Inc., a New York-based investment-banking firm, as its buy-side advisor and begun to seek acquisition opportunities in other industries besides energy and natural resources. In addition, PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PHI, continues to provide corporate and project finance services, including merger and acquisition (M&A) advisory and consulting services and arranging capital for other companies in a variety of industries.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PHI Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., and its discontinued operations Providential Securities, Inc., PHI Energy Corporation, PHI Gold Corp, Providential Vietnam Ltd. and Philand Ranch Limited (including its 100% owned subsidiary Philand Corporation and Philand Vietnam Ltd), Omni Resources, Inc., Cornerstone Biomass Corp., and American Pacific Resources, Inc., collectively referred to as the “Company.” All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.

 

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.

 

Each investment in marketable securities typically represents less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding common stock and stock equivalents of the investee, and each security is nationally quoted on the FINRA’S OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or the OTC Markets. As such, each investment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320 (previously SFAS No. 115).

 

Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in earnings based upon the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. On June 30, 2016 and 2015 the marketable securities have been recorded at $383,770 and $350,556, respectively based upon the fair value of the marketable securities at that time.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had no accounts receivable.

 

  37  
 

 

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted ASC 350 (Previously SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 350. ASC 350 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred; costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to ten years.

 

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

 

The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation and amortization of fixed assets are computed on a straight-line basis.

 

NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 260 (previously SFAS 128). ASC 260 eliminates the presentation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) and requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period and common stock equivalents outstanding at the end of the period.

 

The net earnings (loss) per share is computed as follows:

 

    2016     2015  
Basic and diluted net loss per share:                
Numerator:                
Net income (loss)   $ (7,998 )   $ (1,368,915 )
Denominator:                
Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding (adjusted for 1:1,500 reverse split)     5,324,120       6,573,093  
Basic net income (loss) per share   $ (0.00 )   $ (0.21 )
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding (adjusted for1:1,500 reverse split)     5,324,120       6,573,093  
Diluted net income (loss) per share   $ (0.00 )   $ (0.21 )

 

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718-10-25 (previously SFAS 123R) and accordingly has adopted the modified prospective application method. Under this method, ASC 718-10-25 is applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards that are outstanding as of the date of adoption for which the requisite service has not been rendered (such as unvested options) is recognized over a period of time as the remaining requisite services are rendered.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Fair Value - Definition and Hierarchy

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

A fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs are to be used when available.

 

Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market or income approach are used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

 

Level 2 - Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

Fair value is a market-based measure, based on assumptions of prices and inputs considered from the perspective of a market participant that are current as of the measurement date, rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including; type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.

 

To the extent that valuation is based upon models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Fund in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Fair Value - Valuation Techniques and Inputs

 

The Company holds and may invest public securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC), private securities, real estate, convertible securities, interest bearing securities and other types of securities and has adopted specific techniques for their respective valuations.

 

Equity Securities in Public Companies

 

Unrestricted

 

The Company values investments in securities that are freely tradable and listed on major securities exchanges at their last reported sales price as of the valuation date. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Securities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Restricted

 

Securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC) where there are formal restrictions that limit (i.e. Rule 144 holding periods and underwriter’s lock-ups) their sale shall be valued at the closing price on the date of valuation less applicable discounts. The Company may apply a discount to securities with Rule 144 restrictions. Additional discounts may be assessed if the Company believes there are other mitigating factors which warrant the additional discounting. When determining potential additional discounts, factors that will be taken into consideration include, but are not limited to; securities’ trading characteristics, volume, length and overall impact of the restriction as well as other macro-economic factors. Valuations should be discounted appropriately until the securities may be freely traded.

 

  39  
 

 

If it has been determined that the exchange or OTC listed price does not accurately reflect fair market value, the Company may elect to treat the security as a private company and apply an alternative valuation method.

 

Investments in restricted securities of public companies may be included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, to the extent that significant inputs used to determine liquidity discounts are not observable, investments in restricted securities in public companies may be categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, and accounts payable.

 

As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is primarily attributed to the short maturities of these instruments.

 

Effective July 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820 (previously SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements and adopted this Statement for the assets and liabilities shown in the table below. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on our fair value measurements. ASC 820 permits the Company to defer the recognition and measurement of the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities until January 1, 2010. At June 30, 2016, the Company did not have any nonfinancial assets or nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value. ASC 820 requires that financial assets and liabilities that are reported at fair value be categorized as one of the types of investments based upon the methodology mentioned in Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 above for determining fair value.

 

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below. The Company has no financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Available-for-sale securities

 

Securities available for sale   Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total  
June 30, 2016     -     $ 60,054     $ 323,717     $ 383,770  
June 30, 2015   $ 16,828     $ 301,562     $ 32,166     $ 350,556  

 

The Company uses various approaches to measure fair value of available-for-sale securities, while applying the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures, specified in ASC 820. Our Level 1 securities were measured using the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

The company’s policy regarding the transfers in and/or out of Level 3 depends on the trading activity of the security, the volatility of the security, and other observable units which clearly represents the fair value of the security. If a level 3 security can be measured using a more fairly represented fair value, we will transfer these securities either into Level 1 or Level 2, depending on the type of inputs.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 13 (previously Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104). The Company recognizes consulting and advisory fee revenues when the transaction is completed and the service fees are earned. Expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is incurred. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.

 

ADVERTISING

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $79,072 and $4,350, respectively. The increase in advertising expenses in the current year includes expenses for investor relations and public relations totaling $64,170.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

 

ASC 220-10-45 (previously SFAS 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income) establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, accumulated other comprehensive incomes of $30,263 and $99,341 are presented on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 (previously SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”). Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

REPORTING OF SEGMENTS

 

ASC 280 (previously Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information), which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise, establishes standards for the way that public enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial statements regarding products and services, geographic areas and major customers. ASC 280 defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operated in one segment that generated revenues during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

 

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The Company provides its service and receives marketable securities upon execution of transactions. Consequently, the value of the securities received from customers can be affected by economic fluctuations and each customer’s business growth. The actual realized value of these securities could be significantly different than recorded value.

NOTE 13 – BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. Under the provision of SFAS No. 128, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period and common stock equivalents outstanding at the end of the period. Basic and diluted weighted average numbers of shares for the year ended June 30, 2016 were the same since the inclusion of Common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

 

The exhibits set forth under the caption “Exhibit Index” below are included in this filing and incorporated by reference. The financial statement schedules have been omitted because they are not applicable, not required, or the information is included in the consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.

 

Item 17. Undertakings

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

i. To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

ii. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

2. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post- effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  55  
 

 

3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

4. That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

PHI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

PHI Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “PHI”) is a Nevada corporation engaged in mergers and acquisitions as a principal ( www.phiglobal.com ). The Company has adopted plans to acquire established operating businesses in selective industries and invest in various ventures that may potentially create significant long-term value for our shareholders. In addition, we also provide corporate finance services, including merger and acquisition advisory and consulting services for client companies through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. ( www.phicapitalholdings.com ). No assurances can be made that the Company will be successful in achieving its plans.

 

Originally incorporated in June 1982 as JR Consulting, Inc., the Company was foremost engaged in mergers and acquisitions and had an operating subsidiary, Diva Entertainment, Inc., which operated two modeling agencies, one in New York and one in California. Following the business combination with Providential Securities, Inc., a California-based brokerage firm, in late 1999, the Company changed its name to Providential Securities, Inc. (Nevada) in January 2000. The Company then changed its name to Providential Holdings, Inc. in February 2000. In October 2000, Providential Securities withdrew its securities brokerage membership and ceased its financial services business. Subsequently, in April 2009, the Company changed its name to PHI Group, Inc. From October 2000 to October 2011, the Company was engaged in mergers and acquisitions advisory and consulting services, real estate and hospitality development, mining, oil and gas, telecommunications, technology, healthcare, private equity, and special situations. In October 2011, the Company discontinued the operations of Providential Vietnam Ltd., Philand Ranch Limited, a United Kingdom corporation, (together with its subsidiaries Philand Ranch - Singapore, Philand Corporation (US), and Philand Vietnam Ltd.), PHI Gold Corporation (formerly PHI Mining Corporation), and PHI Energy Corporation, and began to mainly focus on acquisition and development opportunities in energy and natural resource businesses. The Company has recently expanded its scope of acquisitions to include other industries besides energy and natural resources. In addition, PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PHI, continues to provide corporate and project finance services, including merger and acquisition (M&A) advisory and consulting services and arranging capital for other companies in a variety of industries.

 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PHI Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries PHI Capital Holdings, Inc., Abundant Farms, Inc., American Pacific Resources, Inc. and its discontinued operations Providential Securities, Inc., PHI Energy Corporation, PHI Gold Corp, Providential Vietnam Ltd. and Philand Ranch Limited (including its 100% owned subsidiary Philand Corporation and Philand Vietnam Ltd) and Omni Resources, Inc., collectively referred to as the “Company.” All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal reoccurring accruals have been made to the financial statements. The results of operation for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017.

 

  61  
 

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.

 

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.

 

Typically, each investment in marketable securities represents less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding common stock and stock equivalents of the investee, and each security is quoted on either the OTC Markets or other public exchanges. As such, each investment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115.

 

Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are reported in earnings based upon the adjusted cost of the specific security sold. On March 31, 2017, the marketable securities have been recorded at $579,266 based upon the fair value of the marketable securities.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Fair Value - Definition and Hierarchy

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

A fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs are to be used when available.

 

Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market or income approach are used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

 

Level 2 - Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

Fair value is a market-based measure, based on assumptions of prices and inputs considered from the perspective of a market participant that are current as of the measurement date, rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including; type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.

 

  62  
 

 

To the extent that valuation is based upon models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Fund in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Fair Value - Valuation Techniques and Inputs

 

The Company holds and may invest in public securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC), private securities, real estate, convertible securities, interest bearing securities and other types of securities and has adopted specific techniques for their respective valuations.

 

Equity Securities in Public Companies

 

Unrestricted

 

The Company values investments in securities that are freely tradable and listed on major securities exchanges at their last reported sales price as of the valuation date. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Securities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Restricted

 

Securities traded on public exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC) where there are formal restrictions that limit (i.e. Rule 144 holding periods and underwriter’s lock-ups) their sale shall be valued at the closing price on the date of valuation less applicable discounts. The Company may apply a discount to securities with Rule 144 restrictions. Additional discounts may be assessed if the Company believes there are other mitigating factors, which warrant the additional discounting. When determining potential additional discounts, factors that will be taken into consideration include, but are not limited to; securities’ trading characteristics, volume, length and overall impact of the restriction as well as other macro-economic factors. Valuations should be discounted appropriately until the securities may be freely traded.

 

If it has been determined that the exchange or OTC listed price does not accurately reflect fair market value, the Company may elect to treat the security as a private company and apply an alternative valuation method.

 

Investments in restricted securities of public companies may be included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, to the extent that significant inputs used to determine liquidity discounts are not observable, investments in restricted securities in public companies may be categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, and accounts payable.

As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is primarily attributed to the short maturities of these instruments.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts. As of March 31, 2017, the Company did not have any accounts receivable.

 

PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets from three to five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

  63  
 

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 13 (previously Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104). The Company recognizes consulting and advisory fee revenues when the transaction is completed and the service fees are earned. Expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is incurred. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.

 

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718-10-25 (previously SFAS 123R) and accordingly has adopted the modified prospective application method. Under this method, ASC 718-10-25 is applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards that are outstanding as of the date of adoption for which the requisite service has not been rendered (such as unvested options) is recognized over a period of time as the remaining requisite services are rendered.

 

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The Company provides its service and receives marketable securities upon execution of transactions. Consequently, the value of the securities received from customers can be affected by economic fluctuations and each customer’s business growth. The actual realized value of these securities could be significantly different than recorded value.

In addition, we will continue to provide advisory and consulting services to international clients through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. The Company anticipates generating substantial amounts of revenues through the merger and acquisition program, investment in special situations, and advisory services mentioned herein. We will strive to build a critical mass through acquisition and organic growth in order to uplist to the Nasdaq Stock Market or NYSE in the near future.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the external disclosures of the Company including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed by us for reasonableness and conservatism on a consistent basis throughout the Company. Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include acquisitions, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, recoverability of deferred tax and the valuation of shares issued for services. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

 

The recoverability of long-lived assets requires considerable judgment and is evaluated on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. As it relates to definite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules as required by SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets to Be Disposed Of” as amended by SFAS No. 144, which also requires significant judgment and assumptions related to the expected future cash flows attributable to the intangible asset. The impact of modifying any of these assumptions can have a significant impact on the estimate of fair value and, thus, the recoverability of the asset.

 

Income Taxes

 

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. As of March 31, 2017, we estimated the allowance on net deferred tax assets to be one hundred percent of the net deferred tax assets.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, our financial condition at March 31, 2017 and factors that we believe could affect our future financial condition and results of operations. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance.

 

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). All references to dollar amounts in this section are in United States dollars.

The Company had no revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $97,350 in revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of $97,350 between the two periods. The reason for the decrease in revenues between the two periods was due to the Company’s focus on new business development and not providing consulting services during the current quarter.

 

Operating Costs and Expenses:

 

Total operating expenses were $138,774 and $141,951 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

Income (Loss) from Operations:

This represents a variance of $382,532 in net cash used in operating activities between the two periods. The underlying reason for the variance was primarily due to an increase in net loss from operations of $815,467, an increase in other assets and prepaid expenses of $131,372, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,329,369 between the nine-month period ended March 31, 2017 and the corresponding nine-month period ended March 31, 2016.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2017 was $82,733, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $149,509 during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2016, respectively.

The primary underlying reasons for the variance of ($613,713) in cash provided by financing activities between the two nine-month periods were due to a decrease in changes in common stock and paid-in capital in the amount ($849,532), an increase in accumulative other comprehensive income of $245,052, an increase in common stock to be cancelled in the amount of ($90,000), an increase in Treasury Stock of ($6,342), and a change in accumulated deficit of $87,108.

EB-5 IMMIGRATION INVESTOR PROGRAM

 

The Company has filed an I-924 application with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) for the PHI Group EB5 Regional Center, LLC in order to raise capital through the EB-5 Immigration Investor Program in connection with the Company’s organic farming program, Abundant Farms, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and other potential business activities in the State of Florida. Under the EB-5 Program, created by Congress to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment, foreign entrepreneurs (and their spouses and unmarried children under 21) are eligible to apply for a Green Card (permanent residence) if they make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States that creates or preserves at least 10 permanent, full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers. The operation of this Regional Center is subject to the review and approval of United States Citizenship and Immigration Service.

 

COMPANY’S PLAN OF OPERATION FOR THE FOLLOWING 12 MONTHS

 

In the next twelve months the Company intends to continue pursuing its merger and acquisition program by acquiring all or controlling interests in target companies in a number of industries, including but not limited to conventional energy, renewables, natural resources, agribusiness, technology, transportation, education, distribution, mining, oil & gas, financial Services, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, the Company also plans to invest in special situations that may potentially generate significant revenues and profitability for the Company in the short term. We believe that by closing one or more of the contemplated acquisitions we will be able to build a critical mass and uplist to the Nasdaq Stock Market or NYSE in the near future. Moreover, we will continue to provide advisory and consulting services to international clients through our wholly owned subsidiary PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. The Company anticipates generating substantial amounts of revenues through the merger and acquisition program, investment in special situations, and advisory services mentioned herein. However, no assurances could be made that management would be successful in achieving its plan. The president and chairman of the Company has committed to funding the Company’s operations from various sources for the next 12 months.

 

FINANCIAL PLANS

 

MATERIAL CASH REQUIREMENTS: We must raise substantial amounts of capital to fulfill our plan of acquiring energy-related and natural resource assets as part of our scope of business. We intend to use equity, debt and project financing to meet our capital needs for acquisitions.

 

Management has taken action and formulated plans to strengthen the Company’s working capital position and generate sufficient cash to meet its operating needs through June 30, 2017 and beyond. The working capital cash requirements for the next 12 months are expected to be generated from operations, sale of marketable securities and additional financing. The Company plans to generate revenues from its consulting services, merger and acquisition advisory services, and acquisitions of target companies with cash flows.

 

AVAILABLE FUTURE FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS: The Company may use various sources of funds, including short-term loans, long-term debt, equity capital, and project financing as may be necessary. The Company believes it will be able to secure the required capital to implement its business plan; however, no assurances could be made that management would be successful in achieving its plan.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The following discussion about PHI Group Inc.’s market risk involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

 

Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk

 

Some of our operations are conducted in other countries whose official currencies are not U.S. dollars. However, the effect of the fluctuations of exchange rates is considered minimal to our business operations.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We do not have significant interest rate risk, as most of our debt obligations are primarily short-term in nature to individuals, with fixed interest rates.

 

Valuation of Securities Risk

 

Since majority of our income is paid with the marketable securities, the value of our assets may fluctuate significantly depending on the market value of the securities we hold.

 

  85  
 

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), as of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation, our management (including our Chief Executive Officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2017, based on the material weaknesses defined below.

 

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control of Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets,
  provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and
  provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of authorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, 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 or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company’s management assessed the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2017 based on the framework set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

 

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

  (i) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives;
  (ii) ineffective controls over period-end financial disclosure and reporting processes.

 

If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company.

 

Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2017.

 

  86  
 

 

Management’s Remediation Plan

 

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the future:

 

(i)

appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and

   
(ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.

 

The remediation efforts set out in (i) are largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

 

Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our consolidated financial statements for the quarterly report ended March 31, 2017 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

 

Attestation Report of the Registered Accounting Firm

 

This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Rule 308(b) of Regulation S-K, which permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting have come to management’s attention during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Other than as set forth below, Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such action by or against Company has been threatened.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDING SETTLED AND UNPAID AS OF MARCH 31, 2017:

 

QUANG VAN CAO AND NHAN THI NGUYEN CAO VS. PROVIDENTIAL SECURITIES, INC. ET AL.

 

This case was originally submitted to Orange County Superior Court, CA on June 25, 1997, Case No. 781121, and subsequently moved to NASD Dispute resolution for arbitration. On or about August 24, 2000, the Company’s legal counsel negotiated with the Claimant’s counsel and unilaterally reached a settlement that had not been approved by the Company. While the Company was in the process of re-negotiating the terms of said settlement, the Claimants filed a request for arbitration hearing before the National Association of Securities Dealers on October 4, 2000, Case No. 99-03160. Thereafter, the Claimants filed a complaint with the Orange County Superior Court, CA on October 31, 2000, Case No. 00CC13067 for alleged breach of contract for damages in the sum of $75,000 plus pre-judgment interest, costs incurred in connection with the complaint, and other relief. Without admitting or denying any allegations, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the Claimants whereby the Company would pay the Claimants a total of $62,500 plus $4,500 in administrative costs. As the date of this report, the Company has paid $2,500 and is subject to an entry of judgment for $79,000. In May 2011, the Claimants filed an application for and renewal of judgment for a total of $140,490.78. As of March 31, 2017 the Company accrued $172,091 for potential liabilities in connection with this case in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

  87  
 

 

WILLIAM DAVIDSON VS. DOAN ET AL.

 

On or about February 01, 2010, the Company was notified of a suit that was filed with the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles on November 24, 2009 by William Davidson, an individual against Martin Doan, Henry Fahman, Benjamin Tran, HRCiti Corporation, and Providential Capital, Inc. (collectively referred to as “Defendants” - Case No. BC 426831). Plaintiff demanded an amount of not less than $140,000.00 from Defendants for promissory notes outstanding between Plaintiff and the company.

 

On July 09, 2012 William Davidson and PHI Capital Holdings, Inc. (formerly Providential Capital, Inc.), a subsidiary of the Company, reached a settlement agreement with respect to whereby PHI Capital agreed to pay William Davidson a total of $200,000 over a period of nineteen months beginning September 1, 2012. Since November 30, 2012, William Davidson has converted portions of the total amount into common stock of PHI Group, Inc. in lieu of cash payment. The Company has accrued $90,000 as the required liability associated with the balance of these notes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Investment in our securities is subject to various risks, including risks and uncertainties inherent in our business. The following sets forth factors related to our business, operations, financial position or future financial performance or cash flows which could cause an investment in our securities to decline and result in a loss.

 

General Risks Related to Our Business

 

Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.

 

Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.

 

Our strategy in mergers and acquisitions involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.

 

The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies, assets and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:

 

failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results;
diversion of management’s attention;
failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business;
additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both;
the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles;and
the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities.

 

  88  
 

 

These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.

 

As some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia, any adverse change to the economy or business environment in these countries could significantly affect our operations, which would lead to lower revenues and reduced profitability .

 

Some of our business activities are currently involved with Southeast Asia. Because of this presence in specific geographic locations, we are susceptible to fluctuations in our business caused by adverse economic or other conditions in this region, including stock market fluctuation. A stagnant or depressed economy in these countries generally, or in any of the other markets that we serve, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Risks associated with energy business

 

As part of our core business involves acquisitions of energy assets as well as production and trading of energy commodities, our profitability will depend on the prices we receive for energy commodities such as coal and wood pellets. These prices are dependent upon factors beyond our control, including: the strength of the global economy; the demand for electricity; the global supply of thermal coal and biomass products; weather patterns and natural disasters; competition within our industry and the availability and price of alternatives, including natural gas; the proximity, capacity and cost of transportation; coal industry capacity; domestic and foreign governmental regulations and taxes, including those establishing air emission standards for coal-fueled power plants or mandating increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources; regulatory, administrative and judicial decisions, including those affecting future mining permits; and technological developments, including those intended to convert coal-to-liquids or gas and those aimed at capturing and storing carbon dioxide.

 

Risks Related to Our Securities

 

Insiders have substantial control over the company, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control, even if our other stockholders wanted such a change to occur.

 

Though our executive officers and directors as of March 31, 2017, in the aggregate, only hold less than 50% of our outstanding common stock, our Board of Directors is able to decide the rights and terms associated with the Company’s Preferred Stock, which decision may allow the Board of Directors to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

 

The price at which investors purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the prevailing market price.

 

The stock market often experiences significant price fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stock is traded. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our shares. Investors may be unable to sell their shares of common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.

 

Since we do not currently meet the requirements for our stock to be quoted on NASDAQ, NYSE MKT LLC or any other senior exchange, the tradability in our securities will be limited under the penny stock regulations.

 

Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if the price of our securities on the OTCQB or OTC Markets is below $5.00 per share, our securities are within the definition of a “penny stock.” As a result, it is possible that our securities may be subject to the “penny stock” rules and regulations. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. These regulations require broker-dealers to:

 

*Make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser;

 

*Receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction; and

 

*Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.

 

These requirements may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability to resell our securities.

 

  89  
 

 

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us.

 

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded companies to obtain.

 

Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.

 

Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management and founder. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.

 

Our service strategy in merger and acquisition involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.

 

The Company is in the process of evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to integrate successfully any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

 

Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:

 

failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results;
diversion of management’s attention;
failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business;
additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both;
the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and
the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities.

 

These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

 

The exhibits set forth under the caption “Exhibit Index” below are included in this filing and incorporated by reference. The financial statement schedules have been omitted because they are not applicable, not required, or the information is included in the consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.

 

Item 17. Undertakings

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

i. To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

ii. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

2. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post- effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

4. That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
