A. Selected financial data :

 

Dragon Jade International Limited (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 14, 2008 in the British Virgin Islands. The principal activity of the Company is investment holding.

 

In April 2012, the Company chartered a subsidiary, Alpha Ultimate Limited, under the laws of the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong, which operates in the health supplement industry.

 

On August 31, 2012, the Company entered into a stock exchange agreement with United Century Holdings Limited, a privately held corporation. On September 1 2012, the Company consummated the transaction contemplated by that stock exchange agreement. All of the capital stock of United Century Holdings Limited was exchanged for an aggregate of 20,003,319 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company became a 100% holding company of United Century Holdings Limited.

 

United Century Holdings Limited (“UCHL”) was incorporated on March 2, 2012 under the British Virgin Islands Business Companies Act, 2004 with limited liabilities. UCHL was established as a special purpose holding company whose objective is to become a holding company to consummate an acquisition, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses located in Hong Kong. On July 10, 2012, UCHL executed an acquisition of 7,879,500 out of 8,000,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.1282 (HK$1) per share, of the United Asia Medical Network Company Limited (“UAM”) and became a 98.49% holding company of UAM.

 

UAM was incorporated on May 6, 1998, as a limited liability company under predecessor Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, Chapter 32. Its principal business is the marketing and sale of health supplement products and the providing of related medical and health consultancy services.

 

On December 31, 2018, the Company executed an acquisition of 100% issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Montrose Food & Wine H.K. Limited (“Montrose HK”) in consideration of $256,410.26 and 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Montrose HK was incorporated on June 30, 1989, as a limited liability company under predecessor Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, Chapter 32.

B. Capitalization and indebtedness:

 

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value. As of March 31, 2019, there were 57,023,319 issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

 

On December 31, 2012, the Company entered into definitive agreements relating to a private placement of $300,000 in principal amount of Convertible Notes due on December 31, 2013, and warrants to the purchasers of such Convertible Notes giving such purchasers the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 600,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. At March 31, 2016, the outstanding principal and accrued interest under those Convertible Notes was $300,000. On April 12, 2016, the Convertible Note was fully converted into 600,000 shares of our common stock. The outstanding principal of $300,000 was converted into 600,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

On April 1, 2013, the Company entered into definitive agreements relating to a private placement of $100,000 in principal amount of Convertible Notes due on March 31, 2014, and warrants to the purchasers of such Convertible Notes giving such purchasers the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. At March 31, 2016, the outstanding principal and accrued interest under those Convertible Notes was $100,000. On March 3, 2017, the Convertible Note was fully repaid.

 

On March 6, 2017, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to 2 persons at a consideration of $3 per share in transactions exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Regulation S promulgated pursuant to the provisions of that act. None of the recipients of those shares is a U.S. Person, as that term is defined by the provisions of Regulation S. Those shares were issued in off-shore transactions. No directed selling efforts were made in the United States by the Company, any distributor, any of their respective affiliates or any person acting on behalf of the foregoing.

 

C. Reasons for the offer and use of proceeds.

 

Not applicable.

 

D. Risk Factor .

 

The following risk factors make the Company and our securities speculative and of high risk. Our business, operating results and financial position may be adversely affected by these risk factors, some of which we can’t control. Additional risk factors not presently known by us or that we presently consider immaterial also could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial position, if any of them were to occur. In addition to these risk factors, shareholders and prospective investors should read the forward-looking statements about our future performance and expected results set forth in this annual report carefully before deciding to buy or sell our securities. See “Forward-Looking Statements,” below.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

Our business is affected by global, national and local economic conditions, as the products we sell are discretionary . We depend upon factors relating to discretionary consumer spending in the East Asia. These factors include economic conditions, consumers, employment rates, the amounts of consumers’ disposable income, business conditions, interest rates, consumer debt, availability of credit and applicable taxation in regional and local markets where we sell our products. There can be no assurance that consumer spending for our products will not be adversely affected by changes in economic conditions.

 

Our ability to establish effective marketing and advertising campaigns is the key to our success . Our advertisements promote our products and the pricing of such products. If we are unable to increase awareness of our brands and our products, we may not be able to attract new customers. Our marketing activities may not be successful in promoting or pricing our products or retaining and enlarging our customer base. We cannot assure you that our marketing programs will be adequate to support our future growth, which may lead to material adverse effects on our results of operations.

 

Consumer preferences in the health care industry change rapidly and are difficult to predict. The success of our business depends on our ability to anticipate accurately and respond to future changes in consumer demand, maintain the correct inventory, deliver the appropriate products at the right prices and purchase at minimum costs. We must optimize our product selection and inventory based on consumer preferences and sales trends. If we fail to anticipate, identify or react appropriately to changes in consumer demand, we could experience excess inventories, higher than normal markdowns or inability to sell the products, which will reduce our revenue, financial position and results of operations.

 

3

 

 

While we must maintain sufficient inventory to operate our business successfully and meet our customers’ demands, we must be careful to not overstock . Changing consumer demands, manufacturer backorders and uncertainty surrounding new product launches expose us to increasing inventory risks. Demand for products can change rapidly and unexpectedly, including the back order time and availability for sale. We carry a wide variety of products and must maintain sufficient inventory amounts. We may be unable to sell certain products, in the event that consumer demand changes. Our inventory holding costs will increase if we maintain excess inventory. However, if we do not have sufficient inventory to fulfill customer orders, we may lose orders or customers, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we can accurately predict consumer demand and events and avoid over- stocking or under-stocking products.

 

We sell substantially all of our products by our distribution network, which is comprised of small distribution companies that are located in Hong Kong . Our ability to meet customer demand may be significantly limited, if we do not successfully operate our distribution network and logistics facilities, as well as efficiently conduct our distribution activities, or if one or more of our distribution companies or logistics facilities are destroyed or shut down for any reason, including as a result of a natural disaster. Any disruption in the operation of our distribution network could result in higher costs or longer lead times associated with distributing our products.

 

We may not be successful in expanding a distribution network . Although we intend to expand our distribution network including additional cities and rural areas in East Asia in an effort to increase our geographic appearance. Our distribution, logistics and products may encounter various competitions from similar or substitutive businesses. Therefore, the success of expansion will depend upon many factors, including our ability to form relationships with, and manage an increasing number of, customers base and optimize our distribution network. We must also be able to anticipate and respond effectively to competition. If we fail to expand our distribution network in East Asia as planned or if we are unable to compete effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

 

All of our products are shipped using third-party carriers. If a strike or other event prevents or disrupts these carriers from transporting our products, other carriers may be unavailable or may not have the capacity to deliver our products. If adequate third-party sources to ship our products were unavailable at any time, our business would be materially adversely affected.

 

For our product distribution network, we engaged with a few small suppliers for a steady supply of products . We typically distribute products pursuant to annual agency or distribution agreements entered between us and our suppliers or upstream distributors, under which our suppliers provide us with a series of economic incentives and other support. We cannot assure you that manufacturers and other suppliers will continue to sell products to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We also cannot ensure that we will be able to establish new manufacturer and other supplier relationships or extend existing relationships with suppliers when our agreements with them expire. Our annual agency or distribution agreements with suppliers may be terminated from time to time due to various reasons beyond our control.

 

We do not directly own any land use rights in connection with the properties we rent. We may lose our rental properties or may not be able to renew leases for them on terms that are reasonable or favorable to us, when those leases expire . This may adversely impact our business, including disrupting our operations or increasing our cost of operations.

 

We will be exposed to risks inherent in the packaging and distribution of healthcare products , such as the unintentional distribution of counterfeit products. Furthermore, we may sell products which inadvertently have an adverse effect on the health of individuals. Product liability claims may be asserted against us, although we may have the right under applicable Hong Kong laws, rules and regulations to recover from the relevant manufacturer compensation we pay to our customers in connection with a product liability claim. Any product liability claim, product recall or adverse side effects caused by improper use of the products we sell or manufacturing defects may result in adverse publicity regarding us and the products we sell, which would harm our reputation. If we are found liable for product liability claims, we could be required to pay substantial monetary damages. Furthermore, even if we successfully defend ourselves against this type of claim, we could be required to spend significant management, financial and other resources, which could disrupt our business.

 

Any significant growth in the market for our products or our entry into new markets may require additional employees for managerial, operational, financial and other purposes. As of the date of this annual report, we had 10 full-time employees. During any growth, we may encounter problems related to our operational and financial systems and controls, including quality control and delivery and service capacities . We would also need to continue to expand, train and manage our employees. Continued future growth will impose significant added responsibilities upon our management to identify, recruit, maintain, integrate, and motivate new employees.

 

We may, also, encounter working capital shortage, as we may need additional funds to finance the purchase of materials and supplies, development of new products, and hiring of additional employees . For effective growth management, we will be required to continue improving our operations, management, and financial systems and controls. Our failure to manage growth effectively may lead to operational and financial inefficiencies, which will have a negative effect on our profitability. We cannot assure investors that we will be able to timely and effectively meet increased demand and maintain the quality standards required by our existing and potential customers.

 

4

 

 

If adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not be able to undertake our expansion plan or purchase additional equipment for our operations, and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional funds will be available to us.

 

We may experience increased capital requirements and, accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations, without additional capital investments . Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competitors; and (iii) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.

 

If we cannot obtain additional funds, we may be required to (i) limit our marketin g efforts and (ii) decrease or eliminate capital expenditures . Such reductions could materially adversely affect our business and ability to compete.

 

We may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for obtaining adequate funds that are acceptable to us. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders . We cannot give you any assurance that any additional funds will be available to us or, if available, will be on terms favorable to us.

 

We will require substantial additional funding in the future . We have been dependent upon proceeds received from private equity and debt financing to meet our capital requirements in the past. In the future, we likely will require additional funding to meet our capital requirements for our health supplement and traditional Chinese medicine operations and to expand those operations. If we were unable to meet our future funding requirements for working capital and for general business purposes, we could experience operating losses and fail to expand our future operations. If so, our operating results, business results and financial position would be adversely affected.

 

We are dependent upon our senior management , particularly LAW Lok Bun and LAI Yat Man, to achieve profitability, and the loss of either one of them could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial position. Our operating results and future success depend on our senior management’s services and our ability to retain members of our senior management or to replace any of them by attracting, hiring, retaining and motivating other highly skilled personnel who are experienced in managing, marketing and customer servicing. The loss of or inability to replace any member of our senior management could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial position.

 

Our success is dependent upon our ability to compete in providing our health supplements and traditional Chinese medicine . In our industries, there is intense competition, including individuals and large and small entities. Many competitors have substantially greater financial and marketing resources than we do, stronger name recognition, and longer histories of operations. Our success is dependent upon our ability to compete, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

 

Our operating results may fluctuate . Our operating results are dependent on a number of factors, many of which we do not control, including (i) the general economic conditions in Hong Kong, China and the world, (ii) the competition, and (iii) our ability to obtain necessary additional funds to maintain operations.

 

We are subject to certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations adopted by the Securities Exchange Commission pursuant to that act. If we are unable to comply timely with such requirements or if the costs of compliance are too great, our profitability, the market price of our common stock, and our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected . The requirements, rules and regulations to which we are subject to include Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer certifications of disclosure in periodic reports and annual reports under the Securities Act of 1933; disclosure regarding conclusions of evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control of financial reporting; conditions for use of non-GAAP financial measures; disclosure in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of certain off-balance sheet arrangements and aggregate contractual arrangements; disclosure of whether or not we have an audit committee financial expert who is independent and experienced, and if not, why not; and disclosure of whether or not we have adopted a written code of ethics for our Chief Executive Officer and senior financial officers, and if not, why not. These requirements involve substantial additional time and effort by our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer and additional time, effort and expense for our auditors and counsel, as well as for us, all of whom are subject to potential liabilities for failure to comply with these requirements and some of whom may be unwilling or unable to satisfy these requirements.

 

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

 

Any change in government regulations or administrative practices in China and Hong Kong concerning our business may have a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial position. The laws, regulations and policies of the governments in China and Hong Kong and administrative practices in China, our principal jurisdiction, may be changed, applied or interpreted in a manner that will fundamentally alter our ability to carry on our business. The laws, regulations and policies of the government and the administrative practices in China, if changed, may have a detrimental effect on our business, operating results and financial position, resulting in our inability to promote our products and/or operate profitably.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock” under SEC rules, which would limit the market for our common stock and our ability to raise capital in an offering of our securities. If shares of our common stock are not listed on a national securities exchange or Nasdaq and do not have a minimum bid price of $5.00 per share, our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. SEC rules impose additional specific disclosure and other requirements on broker-dealers effecting transactions in penny stocks, which rules may reduce the market liquidity for our shares.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 for transactions in penny stocks which requires that :

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

  obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of that person; and
     
  make a reasonable determination that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

  sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination;
     
  that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction; and
     
 

the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity

of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading; the commissions and other compensation payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative in connection with the penny stock transaction; current quotations for the penny stocks and other information relating to the penny stock market; and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in an account and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Our three principal shareholders control us. None of our three principal shareholders holds a majority of our outstanding shares, which is required for the election of directors and other corporate action. But two of our three principal shareholders, Woody Fire Consultancy Limited (28%) and LAI Yat Man (22.38%), acting together, have a majority of our outstanding shares (50.38%) and, therefore, are able to elect all of the members of our board of directors. Those two shareholders, acting together, also are able to block any takeover bid or merger or acquisition proposal that may be beneficial to our other shareholders.

 

We have not paid and do not intend to pay cash or other dividends on our common stock. Rather, we expect that any earnings will be used in our operations and to finance the expansion of our business. Shareholders and investors in our company will not receive any cash or other dividends in the future and are advised to take this into consideration before making their investment decisions.

 

Other Risks

 

Enforcement of certain civil liabilities . We are a British Virgin Islands corporation doing business outside the United States, in Hong Kong and China. UCHL is a group of Hong Kong corporations doing business in Hong Kong. All of our officers and directors are residents of Hong Kong. All of our assets and those of our officers and directors are located outside the United States, in Hong Kong. Under these circumstances, shareholders and investors may not be able to effect service of process within the United States on such persons and may not be able to enforce against such persons judgments obtained in United States courts predicated on the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States; moreover, it is unlikely that foreign courts would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such persons predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or officers and directors presently has agreed to accept service of process in the United States or to abide by any judgments obtained in United States courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States, but all would possibly consider doing so in the future, based upon the facts and circumstances presented at that time.

The audit report included in this Annual Report was prepared by auditors who are not inspected by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and, as a result, you are deprived of the benefits of such inspection . The independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit reports included in our annual reports filed with the SEC, as auditors of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), or the “PCAOB”, is required by the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess its compliance with the laws of the United States and professional standards. Because our auditors are located in the PRC, a jurisdiction where the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the PRC authorities, our auditors are not currently inspected by the PCAOB. Inspections of other firms that the PCAOB has conducted outside China have identified deficiencies in those firms’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditor’s statements, audits and quality control procedures. As a result, investors may be deprived of the benefits of PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of our auditor’s quality control and audit procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to PCAOB inspections. Investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements.

The Company engages in the health supplement business by and through Alpha Ultimate Ltd.

UAM is a company incorporated in Hong Kong with a business network across Asia, including Hong Kong, mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. UAM believes that, with its experience in human biological knowledge and marketing experience, it is able to provide beneficial nutritional products and medical services. UAM operations include the unique combined use of traditional Chinese medicine and modern western medicine in treatment. Considering the adverse side effects of modern western medicine, the medical professionals of UAM believe that traditional Chinese medicine, with thousands of years of enhancement and empirical evidence, can complement western medicine, which will better serve patients.

 

In September 2015, AUL has begun to sell and distribute the Ultroid® Hemorrhoid Management System (“Ultroid® System”) in Hong Kong. The Ultroid® System, which is FDA cleared and also approved for use in many other nations, is a non-surgical, non-anesthetic and rapid treatment for hemorrhoidal disease (HD). The Ultroid® System is unique to the market and currently the only FDA cleared device to treat and cure all four grades of internal and mixed hemorrhoids. The non-surgical technology is a break-through in painless hemorrhoid therapy requiring no anesthesia and no recuperation time. Performed in the physician’s office in minutes, patients are immediately able to resume their daily activities.

 

Recent Development

 

In May 2018, the Company has started to develop and operate the human resources business which focuses on recruiting medical practitioners to work in the healthcare industry in China, taking advantage of the Group’s close association with the medical community in Taiwan and Hong Kong to access experienced medical professionals, who have the necessary language and cultural skills, and are experienced in both Western and Chinese medicines. We will provide screening, interviews, recommendation, evaluation and review when it comes to recruitments for enterprises.

Except as set forth below and disclosed elsewhere in the annual report, currently there is no legal proceeding pending or threatened against to which we are a party of.

Dragon Jade International Limited, the Plaintiff in Civil Action No.8:17-cv-02422, United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, has made claims against the Defendants, Ultroid LLC and Ultroid Technologies Inc, for breaches of an Exclusive Option and Remediation Agreement dated January 19, 2017 and a Security Agreement dated January 20, 2017, for compensatory damages and liquidated damages of US$2,000,000, including the marshalling of assets identified in the Security Agreement and enforcing its rights under the UCC Financing Statements and interest. Following various motions for judgment on the pleadings and amendments of the Counterclaims of the Defendants, the Plaintiff defeated all RICO counterclaims and alleged lack of shareholder approval counterclaim brought by the Defendants. All remaining counterclaims of the Defendants except for one counterclaim alleging breach of contract by the Plaintiff are the subject of a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment made by the Plaintiff against the Defendants, for which the Plaintiff is expecting a decision of the court. In the event that these counterclaims of the Defendants are dismissed, the case will go to trial on September 30, 2019 to resolve the claims of the Plaintiff and the remaining counterclaim(s) of the Defendants.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common shares. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, capital requirements, financial conditions and future prospects and other factors the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

 

Under British Virgin Islands law, we may only pay dividends from surplus (the excess, if any, at the time of the determination of the total assets of our company over the sum of our liabilities, as shown in our books of account, plus our capital), and we must be solvent before and after the dividend payment in the sense that we will be able to satisfy our liabilities as they become due in the ordinary course of business; and the realizable value of assets of our company will not be less than the sum of our total liabilities, other than deferred taxes as shown on our books of account, and our capital.

 

B. Significant Changes.

 

None.

 

Item 9. The Offer and Listing

 

A. Offer and listing details.

 

The initial bid and asked prices submitted for quotation by the sponsoring broker-dealer are determined arbitrarily by negotiation between that broker-dealer and us and may not necessarily have any relationship to our asset value, earnings, financial condition or other established criteria of value; such prices will be subject to change, as a result of market conditions and other factors.

 

The prices of our shares of common stock are quoted on the OTCQX market. The OTCQX market is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ system. The quotation and the prices of our shares of common stock on the OTCQX market may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock and could depress the trading price of our common stock and have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

 

When fewer shares of a security are traded on the OTCQX market, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in shares of our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood of a person’s orders for shares of our common stock being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price one was quoted at the time of a person’s order entry.

 

For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid prices per share of common stock.

 

Fiscal Year March 31, 2020   High Bid     Low Bid  
03/31/2019-06/30/2019   $ 4.80     $ 2.26

Item 15. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must anticipate the fact that there are resource constraints and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and effective to provide reasonable assurance that information the Company is required to disclose in reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate, because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework . Based upon its assessment, management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of March 31, 2019, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s evaluation was not subject to such attestation report pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to report only management’s evaluation on this annual report.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. Management regularly reviews its system of internal control over financial reporting and makes changes to the Company’s processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that the Company maintains an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Annual Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

The Company will continue to periodically review its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and may make modifications from time to time as considered necessary or desirable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To: The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Dragon Jade International Limited

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dragon Jade International Limited and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2(q) to the financial statements, the Company has suffered from losses from operation and significant accumulated deficits. The Company comes to have insufficient cash flows generated from operation and provided for development. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

(a) Basis of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

(b) Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include depreciation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(c) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2019, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

(d) Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (market value). The cost of raw materials is determined on the basis of weighted average. The cost of finished goods is determined on the weighted average basis and comprises direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.

 

Net realizable value is based on estimated selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and selling expense.

 

(e) Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging, ongoing business relation and other factors. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. At March 31, 2019, the Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts, as per the management’s judgment based on their best knowledge.

 

(f) Deposit and prepayments

 

Deposit and Prepayments represent cash paid in advance to suppliers. As of March 31, 2019, prepayments included cash paid advances to suppliers, and prepaid expenses, such as water and electricity fees.

 

(g) Plant and Equipment

 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is provided principally by use of the straight-line method over the useful lives of the related assets, except for leasehold properties, which are depreciated over the terms of their related leases or their estimated useful lives, whichever is less. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the expected useful life of the assets, are expensed to operations while major repairs are capitalized.

 

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

Furniture and fittings   5 years
Computer equipment   5 years

 

The gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets, and, if any, is recognized in the statement of operations.

 

30

 

 

(h) Impairment of Assets

 

The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, including intangible assets subject to amortization, when events and circumstances warrant such a review, pursuant to the guidelines established in FASB ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144). The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset. Fair market value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost to dispose.

 

(i) Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Any tax paid by subsidiaries during the year is recorded. Current tax is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non- assessable or disallowable for income tax purpose and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax liabilities or assets are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the financial reporting amounts at each year end.

 

A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

(j) Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues represent the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the shipment of goods to customers. Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

 

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
   
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
   
The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
   
Collectability is reasonably assured.

 

(k) Foreign Currency Transactions

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in United States Dollars (“US$”). Transactions in foreign currencies during the period are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing at that date. All transaction differences are recorded in the income statement.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (US$). The Company’s subsidiary in Hong Kong has its local currency, Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”), as its functional currency. On consolidation, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiary in Hong Kong is translated from HK$ into US$ in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 830 Foreign Currency Matters (formerly SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”). During 2017, 2018 and 2019, the Hong Kong dollars are translated from HK$ with a ratio of US$1.00=HK$7.80, a fixed exchange rate maintained between Hong Kong and United States derived from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority pegging HK$ and US$ monetary policy. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet dates and all income and expenditure items are translated at the average rates for each of the period. Translation of amounts from HK$ into US$ has been made at the following exchanges rates for the respective periods:

 

    For the Years Ended March 31,  
    2019     2018     2017  
Twelve months ended HKD:USD exchange rate     7.8       7.8       7.8  
Average twelve months ended HKD:USD exchange rate     7.8       7.8       7.8  
Twelve months ended RMB:USD exchange rate     N/A       6.23944       N/A  
Average twelve months ended RMB:USD exchange rate     N/A       6.23944       N/A  

 

31

 

 

(l) Fair Value of Conversion Features

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, the conversion feature of the Convertible Notes is separated from the debt instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument. On the date the Convertible Notes are issued, the conversion feature was recorded as a liability at its fair value, with future decreases in fair value recognized as earnings and increases in fair values recognized as expenses.

 

The Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model to obtain the fair value of the conversion feature. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life assumption is primarily based on the expiration date of the conversion features. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the conversion features is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement.

 

(m) Earnings/(Losses) Per Share

 

Basic losses per share is computed by dividing the earnings for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by including other potential common stock, including stock options and warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period, if dilutive.

 

(n) Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

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

 

(o) Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires that companies account for awards of equity instruments issued to employees under the fair value method of accounting and recognize such amounts in their statements of operations. Under FASB ASC 718 we are required to measure compensation costs for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize compensation expense in our consolidated statements of operations over the service period that the awards are expected to vest.

 

(p) Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees

 

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees that are issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services. If the fair value of goods or services received in a share-based payment transaction with nonemployees is more reliably measureable than the fair value of the equity instruments issued, the fair value of the goods or services received shall be used to measure the transaction. In contrast, if the fair value of the equity instruments issued in a share-based payment transaction with nonemployees is more reliably measured than the fair value of the consideration received, the transaction shall be measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

 

(q) Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $16,449,314 as of March 31, 2019. The Company will be required to raise additional capital to fund its operations, and will continue to attempt to raise capital resources from both related and unrelated parties until such time as the Company is able to generate revenues sufficient to maintain itself as a viable entity. These factors have raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to raise additional capital or achieve profitability. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company plans to strengthen its core business, control its overall expenditures, improve the efficiency of its operations and continue its efforts to expand by exploring additional product lines and market opportunities.

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842):Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, which clarifies the application of the new leases guidance to land easements and eases adoption efforts for some land easements. ASU 2018-01 is expected to reduce the cost of adopting the new leases standard for certain land easements. It is also an attempt to help ensure that companies can make a successful transition to the standard without compromising the quality of information provided to investors about these transactions. Land easements (also commonly referred to as rights of way) represent the right to use, access, or cross another entity’s land for a specified purpose. Land easements are used by utility and telecommunications companies, for example, when they need to take a small strip of land, or easement, to bury wires. Not all companies have historically accounted for them as leases. Stakeholders pointed out that the requirement to evaluate all old and existing land easements, sometimes numbering in the tens of thousands, to determine if they meet the definition of a lease under the new standard could be very costly. They also noted there would be limited benefit to applying this requirement, as many of their land easements would not meet the definition of a lease, or even if they met that definition, many of their easements are prepaid and, therefore, already are recognized on the balance sheet. The land easements ASU addresses this by providing an optional transition practical expedient that, if elected, would not require an organization to reconsider their accounting for existing land easements that are not currently accounted for under the old leases standard; and Clarifying that new or modified land easements should be evaluated under the new leases standard, once an entity has adopted the new standard.

 

The FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that helps organizations address certain stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

 

ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, provides financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within AOCI to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (or portion thereof) is recorded.

 

The ASU requires financial statement preparers to disclose:

 

A description of the accounting policy for releasing income tax effects from AOCI;

 

Whether they elect to reclassify the stranded income tax effects from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act; and

 

Information about the other income tax effects that are reclassified.

 

The amendments affect any organization that is required to apply the provisions of Topic 220, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income, and has items of other comprehensive income for which the related tax effects are presented in other comprehensive income as required by GAAP. The amendments are effective for all organizations for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Organizations should apply the proposed amendments either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized.

 

The FASB Issues ASU No. 2018-06 to Supersede Circular 202 for Depository and Lending Institutions. The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No.2018-06,Codification Improvements to Topic 942, Financial Services—Depository and Lending. ASU 2018-06 removes outdated guidance related to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s Banking Circular 202, Accounting for Net Deferred Tax Charges (Circular 202) in Subtopic 942-740, Financial Services—Depository and Lending—Income Taxes and should have no effect on reporting entities. The amendments in ASU 2018-06 are effective immediately.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-11 (“Targeted Improvements”—ASC 842 (“Leases”)). This Update provides entities with an additional (and optional) transition method of which an entity initially applies new lease standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the fiscal year of adoption. Consequently, an entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in which it adopts ASC 840 will continue to be in accordance with ASC 840. This Update also provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component, where the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease component(s) and associated lease component are the same, and the lease component, if accounting for separately, would be classified as an operating lease.

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-20 (“Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors”—ASC 842 (“Leases”)) as amendments of the new lease standard. The amendments in this Update (1) provide an entity with an accounting policy election to account for the payment for all sales (and other similar) taxes as a lessor cost; (2) require lessors to exclude from variable payments lessor costs paid by lessees directly to third parties, and also require lessors to account for costs excluded from consideration of a contract that are paid by the lessor and reimbursed by the lessee as variable payments; and (3) require lessors to allocate (rather than recognize as currently required) certain variable payments to the lease and nonlease components when the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable payment is based occur and recognize the amount of variable payments allocated to nonlease components as income in profit or loss in accordance with other Accounting Standards, such as ASC 606.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2019-01 (“Codification Improvements”—ASC 842 (“Leases”)) as amendments of the new lease standard. This Update reinstates the exception in the new lease standard for lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers to use their costs, reflecting discounts, as the fair value of the underlying asset; and this Update clarifies the board’s original intent by explicitly providing an exception to ASC 250-10-50-3 (“Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—General”) interim disclosure requirements in the new lease standard transition disclosure requirements.

 

These Updates, excluding Accounting Standards Update 2019-01, are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new lease standard to all leases existing at the date of initial adoption. An entity may choose to use either (1) the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial adoption. Accounting Standards Update 2019-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. Accounting Standards Update 2019-01 is applied retrospectively as of the date that the new lease standard is first applied. The Company and its subsidiaries will adopt these Updates, including Accounting Standards Update 2019-01, on April 1, 2019 and use the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption as the date of initial adoption. Consequently, financial information of comparative period will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new lease standard will not be provided for periods before April 1, 2019.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-12 (“Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts”—ASC 944 (“Financial Services—Insurance”)). This Update changes the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for long duration contracts issued by an insurance entity. This Update requires an insurance entity to review and, if there is a change, update cash flow assumptions at least annually and to update discount rate used for liability for future policy benefits at each reporting date for nonparticipating traditional long-duration and limited-payment contracts. The effect of updating the discount rate is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). This Update also requires market risk benefits to be measured at fair value, and simplifies amortization of deferred acquisition costs. Furthermore, this Update requires additional disclosures for long-duration contracts. This Update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. For the liability for future policy benefits and deferred acquisition costs, this Update is applied to contracts in force as of beginning of the earliest period presented (hereinafter, “the transition date” of this Update) on a modified retrospective basis, and an insurance entity may elect to apply retrospectively. For the market risk benefits, this Update is applied retrospectively at the transition date, and the difference between fair value and carrying value requires an adjustment to retained earnings at the transition date. The cumulative effect of changes in the instrument-specific credit risk between contract inception date and the transition date should be recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income at the transition date. The Company and its subsidiaries will adopt this Update on April 1, 2021. The Company and its subsidiaries are currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of this Update will have on the Company and its subsidiaries’ results of operations or financial position, as well as changes in disclosures required by this Update.

 

In August 2018, Accounting Standards Update 2018-13 (“Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”—ASC 820 (“Fair Value Measurement”)) was issued. This Update modifies and adds the disclosure requirements for Fair Value Measurements. This Update also removes disclosure requirements of the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This Update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. An entity is also permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosure requirements and delay adoption of the additional disclosure requirements until their effective date. Removals and modifications of disclosure requirements should be mainly applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date, while the additional disclosure requirements should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. The Company and its subsidiaries early adopted the removals of disclosure requirements from the three months ended September 30, 2018. The Company and its subsidiaries will adopt the modifications and additions of disclosure requirements from fiscal 2021. Since this Update relates to disclosure requirements, the adoption will not have an effect on the Company and its subsidiaries’ results of operations or financial position.

 

In August 2018, Accounting Standards Update 2018-14 (“Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans”—ASC 715-20 (“Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General”)) was issued. This Update adds and clarifies the disclosure requirements for Pension Plans, and removes certain disclosure requirements such as the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year. This Update is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. The Company and its subsidiaries will adopt this Update from fiscal 2021. Since this Update relates to disclosure requirements, the adoption will not have an effect on the Company and its subsidiaries’ results of operations or financial position.
