Data.
PRIME GLOBAL CAPITAL GROUP INCORPORATED
INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Prime Global
Capital Group Incorporated
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Prime Global Capital Group Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of October 31, 2019 and 2018, the related
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss,
changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the two
years in the period ended October 31, 2019, and the related notes
and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial
statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
October 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
October 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in
Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company reported a net loss
of $268,058, a net current asset deficiency with its current
liabilities exceeding its current assets by $1,467,703, an
accumulated deficit of $4,545,195 as of October 31, 2019 from
recurring net losses, and significant short term debt maturing in
less than one year. All these factors raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in
regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements. 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 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(Amount expressed in United States Dollars (“$”), except for
number of shares or stated otherwise)
1. |
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
BACKGROUND |
Prime Global Capital Group Incorporated (formerly Home Touch
Holding Company) (“PGCG” or “the Company”) was incorporated in the
State of Nevada on January 26, 2009. On January 25, 2011, the
Company changed its name to Prime Global Capital Group
Incorporated.
Currently, the Company, through its subsidiaries, is principally
engaged in the operation of a durian plantation, leasing and
development of the operation of oil palm and durian plantation,
commercial and residential real estate properties in Malaysia.
Corporate history
On December 6, 2010, the Company acquired Union Hub Technology Sdn.
Bhd. (“UHT”), a company incorporated under the laws of Malaysia,
through a share exchange transaction, or the Share Exchange.
Pursuant to the Share Exchange, the Company acquired from the UHT
shareholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of UHT in
exchange for the issuance of 16,500,000 shares of its common stock.
As a result of the Share Exchange, UHT became a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.
Concurrently, on December 6, 2010, the Company entered into and
executed an agreement to sell its wholly-owned subsidiary, Home
Touch Limited (a corporation organized under the laws of the Hong
Kong Special Administrative Region), to the former founders and
directors for $20,000. Upon the completion of this sale, Mr. Ng and
Ms. Yau, the former founders and executive officers, resigned from
their positions on the board of directors.
The share exchange transaction has been accounted for as a reverse
acquisition and recapitalization of the Company whereby UHT is
deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the
Company to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer).
On January 25, 2011, the Company changed its fiscal year from March
31 to October 31 and increased its authorized capital to
1,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of
preferred stock.
On January 20, 2014, the Company through PGCG Assets sold and
issued to an unaffiliated third party 200,000 shares of its Common
Stock at a price of RM 100 per share, for aggregate consideration
of RM20,000,000, or approximately $6,084,760. PGCG
Assets received net proceeds of approximately RM20,000,000, or
approximately $6,084,760 from the sale of its securities and used
the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including
repayment of the loan made by UHT. Upon the consummation of
the foregoing transactions, 90% of the issued and outstanding
securities of PGCG Assets will be owned by UHT and 10% by such
unaffiliated third party. Each sale and issuance was
made pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement containing
terms and conditions that are normal and customary for a
transaction of this type. In October 2014, PGCG Assets issued
48,000,000 shares of its common stock by capitalization of its
share premium account.
On October 31, 2014, the Company through Virtual Setup Sdn. Bhd.,
its affiliate, sold and issued to Denvoursuisse Sdn. Bhd. 200,000
shares of its Common Stock at a price of RM 10 per share, for
aggregate consideration of RM 2,000,000, or approximately $611,731.
PGCG Assets received net proceeds of approximately RM2,000,000,
from the sale of its securities and used the net proceeds for
general corporate purposes, including repayment of the loan made by
UHT. Upon the consummation of the foregoing transactions, 95% of
the issued and outstanding securities of VSSB will be owned by PGCG
Plantation and 5% by Denvoursuisse Sdn. Bhd., which also owns 10%
of the issued and outstanding securities of PGCG Assets. The sale
and issuance was made pursuant to the terms of a subscription
agreement containing terms and conditions that are normal and
customary for a transaction of this type.
In December 2014, the Company discontinued the software business
and concentrated its resource to develop the real estate
business.

2. |
GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the year ended October 31, 2019, the Company reported a net
loss of $268,058 and working capital deficit of $1,467,703 as of
October 31, 2019. The Company had accumulated deficit of $4,545,195
as of October 31, 2019 from recurring losses and significant
short-term debt obligations maturing in less than one year (notes 7
and 8). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent
upon improving the profitability and the continuing financial
support from its stockholders or other capital sources. Management
believes that the continuing financial support from the existing
shareholders or external debt financing will provide the additional
cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the
recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that
may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going
concern.
3. |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES |
These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management
makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and
expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from
these estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PGCG
and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and
transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been
eliminated upon consolidation.
· |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand, demand deposits
placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly
liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or
less as of the purchase date of such investments.

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not
bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its
customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the
associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing
past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is
established and determined based on managements’ assessment of
known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the
customer’s current credit worthiness and the economic environment.
The Company considers the allowance for doubtful accounts for any
estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to
make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or
not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions
are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking
legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged
off against the allowance after all means of collection have been
exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The
Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related
to its customers.
Based upon the aforementioned criteria, the Company did not record
any allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended October 31,
2019 and 2018.
· |
Marketable securities at fair value |
Marketable securities at fair value are reported at fair value
using the market approach based on the quoted prices in active
markets at the reporting date. The Company classifies the valuation
techniques that use these inputs as Level 1 of fair value
measurements. Any unrealized losses that are deemed
other-than-temporary are included in current period earnings and
removed from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Realized gains and losses on marketable securities are included in
current period earnings. For purposes of computing realized gains
and losses, the cost basis of each investment sold is generally
based on the weighted average cost method.
The Company regularly evaluates whether the decline in fair value
of fair value-sale securities is other-than-temporary and objective
evidence of impairment could include:
|
· |
The severity and duration of the
fair value decline; |
|
· |
Deterioration in the financial
condition of the issuer; and |
|
· |
Evaluation of the factors that
could cause individual securities to have an other-than-temporary
impairment. |
During the years ended October 31, 2019 impairment loss on fair
value-sale securities did not occur and 2018, $43,530 of losses
previously classified in other comprehensive losses were
reclassified into earnings to recognize an other-than-temporary
decline in fair value.
During the years ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company
invested in equity securities listed on Bursa Malaysia with a total
cost of $265,606 and escrow funds (which invested in equity
securities listed in the U.S.) with a total cost of $200,000. The
Company entered into an escrow agreement with Peijin Wu Hoppe
(“Hoppe”), the Company’s former director, to set up an escrow fund
up to $500,000 as a reserve to indemnify Hoppe from any claim of
liability until July 29, 2022, the seventh year anniversary of the
termination of Director Retainer Agreement, or any mutual agreement
with the Company and Hoppe. The unrealized gain representing the
change in fair value of $14,294 and unrealized loss of $50,830 was
charged against accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for
the years ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Biological assets are measured at their fair value less costs to
sell at each reporting date. The fair value is determined as the
net present value of cash flows expected to be generated by these
crops (including a risk adjustment factor). Where fair value cannot
be measured reliably, biological assets are measured at cost.
The valuation takes into account expected sales prices, yields,
picked fruit quality and expected direct costs related to the
production and sale of the assets and management must make a
judgment as to the trend in these factors.
· |
Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the
following expected useful lives from the date on which they become
fully operational:

Expenditure for maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred.
The gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment
is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying
amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the statement of
operations.
Bearer plants consist of replanting costs of durian such as soil
amendments, cultivation, fertilization and purchase costs of
sapling. Costs related to durian development projects on our
plantation land, are capitalized during the sapling, developing and
planting durian fruit bunches and when the harvests are
substantially available for commercial sale. The bearer plants will
then commence to be depreciated as components of plantation
costs and expenses.
Long-lived assets primarily include freehold plantation land,
leasehold land held for development, freehold land and land
improvement for rental purpose and building structure and
improvements. In accordance with the provision of ASC Topic 360,
“Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company
generally conduct its annual impairment evaluation to its
long-lived assets usually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal
year, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist, such as
a significant sustained change in the business climate. The
recoverability of long-lived assets is measured at the reporting
unit level. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net
cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is
recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying
amount of the asset. There has been no impairment charge for the
years presented.

(Amount expressed in United States Dollars (“$”), except for
number of shares or stated otherwise)
The Company separately identified the portion of freehold land and
building structure, in which freehold land is not subject to
amortization and buildings are to be amortized over 33 years on a
straight-line method, based on applicable local laws and
practice.
Deferred development cost for oil palms that had been capitalized
as part of freehold plantation land were not amortized over the
useful life of the oil palms since these costs were not separately
identifiable from the cost of freehold plantation land and
buildings when the whole oil palm plantation was purchased in July
2011.
Policy for Capitalizing Development Cost
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price
of property, legal fees and other acquisition costs. Costs directly
related to planning, developing, initial leasing and constructing a
property are capitalized and classified as Real Estate in the
consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized development costs include
interest, and other direct project costs incurred during the period
of development. As of October 31, 2019 and 2018, there was no such
capitalized interest.
A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development and
leasing of properties. After determination is made to capitalize a
cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that
is benefited. Determination of when a development project is
substantially complete and capitalization must cease involves a
degree of judgment. The Company adopts the capitalization policy on
development properties which is guided by ASC Topic 835-20 “
Interest – Capitalization of Interest ” and ASC Topic 970 “
Real Estate - General ”. The costs of land and buildings
under development include specifically identifiable costs. The
capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the
development of the property, development costs, construction costs,
interest costs, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred
during the period of development. The Company considers a
construction project as substantially completed and held available
for occupancy upon the receipt of certificates of occupancy, but no
later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.
The Company ceases capitalization on the portion (1) substantially
completed and (2) occupied or held available for occupancy, and the
Company capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion
under construction.
The Company capitalizes leasing costs which include commissions
paid to outside brokers, legal costs incurred to negotiate and
document a lease agreement and any internal costs that may be
applicable. The Company allocates these costs to individual tenant
leases and amortizes them over the related lease term.
Revenue recognition applicable from 1 November 2018
The Company recognizes its revenue in accordance with ASC Topic
606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Revenue is measured
based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer.
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance
obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a
customer, usually upon delivery of palm oil fruit bunches and
durian fruits. There are no significant payments terms, no
significant financing component or any variable consideration. All
of the company’s revenue from contracts with customers in the scope
of ASC 606 is recognized in one geographical market in Malaysia,
and one major product line, and plantation sales are transferred at
a point in time.
Revenue recognition applicable until 31 October 2019
We recognize our revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605, “Revenue
Recognition”, upon the delivery of our plantation products when:
(1) title and risk of loss are transferred; (2) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists; (3) there are no continuing obligations
to the customer; and (4) the collection of related accounts
receivable is probable. Our sale arrangements do not contain
general rights of return.

(a) Plantation sales
Revenue from plantation sales include the sale of palm oil fruit
bunches and sale of durian fruits. The sale is recognized upon
confirmation of the weight of produce and transport to the
customer, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement,
delivery has occurred and risk of loss has passed, the sales price
is fixed or determinable at the date of sale, and collectibility is
reasonably assured. For the year ended October 31, 2019, sale of
palm oil palm and durian was $286,084. For the year ended October
31, 2018, sales of palm oil was $164,947.
(b) Rental income
The Company generally leases the units under operating leases with
terms of two years or less. For the years ended Oct 31, 2019 and
2018, we have recorded $1,632,055 and $1,364,639, respectively, in
lease revenue, based upon its annual rental over the life of the
lease under operating lease, using the straight-line method in
accordance with ASC Topic 970-605, “Real Estate – General –
Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 970-605”).
As of October 31, 2019, the commercial buildings for lease are as

The Company expects to record approximately $1.62 million in annual
lease revenue under the operating lease arrangements in the next
twelve months, through October 31, 2020.
The Company leases retail and office spaces to the tenants under
operating lease arrangements. The Company receives rental income
over a stated period of time from the real estate properties it
leased out. Rental income is recognized over the life of the
operating lease agreement as it is earned in the period under ASC
Topic 970-605. The typical leases contain initial terms of one to
two years with renewal options and do not contain escalating rent
amounts. Under the lease agreement with Le Apple Boutique Hotel
KLCC, the initial term of lease is one year. Provided that there
are no existing breaches by the tenant, an irrecoverable annual
renewal option is granted for up to twenty-nine years, with a
maximum aggregate term of thirty years. Six-months’ rent-free
period under the operating lease agreement is treated as long-term
rent concession, which is being amortized as an offset to revenues
collected over the term of the underlying lease of 30 years on a
straight-line basis.

The Company also records operating costs directly attributable to
the leasing properties, such as real estate taxes, depreciation of
the leased properties and maintenance fees, which are charged to
expense when incurred.
Costs of revenue on plantation sales includes material supplies,
subcontracting costs and transportation costs incurred for
planting, fertilizing and harvesting the oil palm tree and durian
tree. Transportation and handling costs associated with the
distribution of fresh fruit bunches and durians fruits to the
customers are also included in cost of revenues.
Costs related to real estate business shown on the accompanying
statements of operations include costs associated with land tax,
on-site and property management personnel, repairs and maintenance,
property insurance, marketing, landscaping and other on-site and
related administrative costs. Utility expenses are paid directly by
tenants.
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards
for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components
and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes
all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources.
Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the
accompanying statements of stockholders’ equity consists of changes
in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation and
cumulative net change in the fair value of available-for-sale
investments held at the balance sheet date. This comprehensive
income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or
benefit.

Non-controlling interests |
Non-controlling interests represent the equity interest in the
capital contributions, income and loss of less than wholly-owned
and consolidated entities that is not attributable to the
Company.
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of
ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). Under this
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should
recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial
statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on
a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be
recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than
not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax
authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be
measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater
than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with
the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and
relevant facts.
The Company conducts major businesses in Malaysia and is subject to
tax in its own jurisdiction. As a result of its business
activities, the Company will file separate tax returns that are
subject to examination by the local and foreign tax
authorities.

Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency are translated into the functional currency at the
exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency are translated into the functional currency
using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The
resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of
operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars
(“US$”) and the accompanying financial statements have been
expressed in US$. In addition, the Company maintains its books and
record in a local currency, Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR” or “RM”),
which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the
economic environment in which the entity operates.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of
its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are
translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30,
“Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange
rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are
translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains
and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of
foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of
accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of
stockholders’ equity. The gains and losses are recorded as a
separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within
the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Recent accounting pronouncements |
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")
2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which
requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for
financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical
experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable
forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is
applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets
measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning
after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for
all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those
fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does
not anticipate that the adoption of this ASU to have a significant
impact on our consolidated financial statements .

Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans (Topic 960), Defined
Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), Health and Welfare Benefit
Plans (Topic 965): Employee Benefit Plan Master Trust

amendments in this ASU requires an employee benefit plan within the
scope of Topic 960,1 962,2 or 9653 to present its interest in a
master trust and the change in its interest in that master trust as
single line items in the statement of net assets available for
benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits, respectively. In addition, the amendments update and
align the disclosure requirements for an interest in a master trust
across Topics 960, 962, and 965. The amendments in this ASU are
effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December
15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in the ASU
should be adopted on a retrospective basis. We do not expect that
adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated
financial statements.

Receivables—Non refundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20):
Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The
amendments in this ASU shortens the amortization period for certain
purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically,
it requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date.
The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities
held at a discount. The discount continues to be amortized to
maturity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is
permitted. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim
period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of
the fiscal year that includes that interim period. We do not expect

Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round
Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for
Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Non public
Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non controlling
Interests with a Scope Exception. The guidance is intended to
reduce the complexity associated with issuers’ accounting for
certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities
and equity. Specifically, a down round feature (as defined) would
no longer cause a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument
(or an embedded conversion option) to be accounted for as a
derivative liability at fair value with changes in fair value
recognized in current earnings. The amendments in this ASU are
effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December

In November 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-19,
Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial
Instruments—Credit Losses. The ASU changes the effective date
of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021,
including interim periods within those fiscal years. Thus, the
effective date for such entities’ annual financial statements is
now aligned with that for these interim financial statements. We
are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on
our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-20,
Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.
The amendments are designed to make lessors adoption of the new
leases standard easier such as accounting policy election on sales
tax, exclude variable payments for all lessor costs, and
clarification on lessor costs. We are currently evaluating the
impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial
statements and related disclosures.
In March 2019, FASB Issued Accounting Standards Update 2019-01,
Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements. For public
business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. We do not expect the adoption of this
ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated financial

improves guidance within the recently issued standards on credit
losses, hedging, and recognition and measurement of financial
instruments: The effective dates for amendments related to ASUs
2016-13 and 2017-12 align with the effective dates of those
standards, unless an entity has already adopted one or both. We do
not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on
our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2019, FASB Issued Accounting Standards Update 2019-05,
Targeted Transition Relief. ASU 2019-05 provides transition relief
for ASU 2016-13 (“credit losses standard”) by providing entities
with an alternative to irrevocably elect the fair value option for
eligible financial assets measured at amortized cost upon adoption
of the new credit losses standard. For entities that have not yet
adopted ASU 2016-13, the effective dates are the same as those in
ASU 2016-13. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, ASU
2019-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is permitted once ASU 2016-13 has been adopted. We do not
expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on our
consolidated financial statements.

Codification Improvements to Hedge Accounting, which would clarify
certain amendments made by ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to
Accounting for Hedging Activities, to the guidance in ASC 815 on
hedging activities. The FASB issued the proposal in response to

issuance of FASB ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit
Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases
(Topic 842): Effective Dates. The ASU provides a framework to
stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards and
amends the effective dates for certain major new accounting
standards to give implementation relief to certain types of
entities. Specifically, ASU 2019-10 changes some effective dates
for ASU 2017-12 on hedging, ASU 2016-02 on leasing, ASU 2016-13 on
current expected credit losses, and ASU 2017-04 on simplifying the
goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this Update amend the

dates for Hedging after applying this update are as follows: for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The effective dates

In April 2015, the Company’s development order regarding the
development of 21.8921 hectares (54.10 acres) leasehold land
located in Puncak Alam, Malaysia was approved by the Kuala Selangor
District Council. The approved order allows the Company to proceed
with its plans to construct its Shah Alam 2 Eco Residential
Development project. In November 2015, the Company submitted a
request to convert some of its planned semi-detached and bungalow
home parcels into cluster semi-detached homes to improve the
marketability of the Company’s proposed development. On March 4,
2016, the Company received notification from the Kuala Selangor
District Council that its revised Development Order relating to the
Puncak Alam land was approved on February 24, 2016.
Pursuant to an 8-K filed on July 1, 2016, PGCG Assets entered into
a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Yong Tai Berhad, a
public listed corporation in the main market of Bursa Malaysia
Berhad (“YTB”) engaged in the business of commercial and
residential property development, to jointly develop the land (the
“Land”) located at Puncak Alam (the “Proposed JV”). The parties
terminated the MOU on February 15, 2017, in accordance with the
terms of a Mutual Termination of Memorandum of Understanding (the
“Termination MOU”). The parties further confirmed that there was no
monetary payment due to either party pursuant to the MOU or the
Termination MOU.
In light of the termination of the Proposed JV with YTB, the
Company plans to develop, market, promote and complete the
construction on its own. Due to market forces, we plan to begin
construction by the end of calendar 2023 to maximize profits. The
Company hopes to begin construction in the fourth calendar quarter
of 2019 and complete construction by the end of calendar 2021. The
Company believes that it will require approximately RM5 to RM10
million in the aggregate to market, promote and complete
construction of each phase of our Shah Alam 2 Eco Residential
Development Project.

The effective tax rate in the years presented is the result of the
mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that apply a
broad range of income tax rates. During the years presented, the
Company has a number of subsidiaries that operates in different
countries and is subject to tax in the jurisdictions in which it
subsidiaries operate, as follows:
United States of America
PGCG is registered in the State of Nevada and is subject to United
States of America tax law. As of October 31, 2019 and 2018, the
operations in the United States of America incurred $1,163,399 and
$1,035,179, respectively of cumulative net operating losses which
can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The net
operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2031, if
unutilized. As of October 31, 2019, the Company has provided for a
full valuation allowance of $407,190 (2018: $362,313) against the
deferred tax assets on the expected future tax benefits from the
net operating loss carry forwards as the management believes it is
not likely that these assets will not be realized in the
future.
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10 “Accounting for Income
Taxes” and recorded a liability for an uncertain income tax
position, tax penalties and any imputed interest thereon. The
amount, recorded as an obligation is $135,000 at October 31, 2019

Malaysia
All of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Malaysia are subject
to the Malaysia Corporate Tax Laws at a progressive income tax rate
of 18% (2019: 17%) (for Company with paid up capital not more than
RM2.5 million and on the first RM 500,000 income) and 24% (2019:
24%) (on all income for Company with paid up capital more than
RM2.5 million and on the remaining balance of income after the
first RM500,000 income charged at 24% for Company with paid up
capital not more than RM2.5 million) on the assessable income for
its tax year. Any unutilized losses can be carried forward
indefinitely to be utilized against income from any business
source. As of October 31, 2019, the Company has provided for a full
valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets of $163,702
(2018: $162,104) on the expected future tax benefits from the net
operating loss carry forwards as the management believes it is not
likely that these assets will be realized in the future.

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, and 2018, there is
no vendor accounted for 10% or more of our purchase.
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk
consist principally of trade receivables. The Company believes the
concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is
substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process
and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not
generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates
the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors
surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical
trends and other information.
The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to
the interest expense incurred on bank borrowings. The Company has
not used derivative financial instruments in its investment
portfolio in order to reduce this risk. The Company has not been
exposed nor does it anticipate being exposed to material risks due
to changes in interest rates.
PRIME GLOBAL CAPITAL GROUP INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amount expressed in United States Dollars (“$”), except for
number of shares or stated otherwise)
The reporting currency of the Company is US$. To date the majority
of the revenues and costs are denominated in MYR, and a significant
portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in MYR. As a
result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as its
revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations
in the exchange rate between US$ and MYR. If MYR depreciates
against US$, the value of MYR revenues and assets as expressed in
US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not hold
any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to
substantial foreign exchange risk.
The Company’s primary market risk exposure results from the price
it receives for its palm oil. The Company does not currently engage
in any commodity hedging activities, although it may do so in the
future. Realized commodity pricing for the Company’s operation is
primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for palm oil.
Pricing for palm oil has been volatile and unpredictable in recent
years, and the Company expects this volatility to continue in the
foreseeable future. The prices the Company receives for operation
depend on many factors outside of its control, including volatility
in the differences between product prices at sales points and the
applicable commodity index price.
(g) |
Malaysian real estate market risk |
The Company’s real estate business may be affected by market
conditions and economic challenges experienced by the economy as a
whole in Malaysia, conditions in the credit markets or by local
economic conditions in the markets in which its properties are
located. Such conditions may impact the Company’s results of
operations, financial condition or ability to expand its
operations.
(h) |
Market risk related to marketable securities |
The Company is also exposed to the risk of changes in the value of
financial instruments, caused by fluctuations in equity prices
related to marketable securities. Changes in these factors could
cause fluctuations in earnings and cash flows.
14. |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
(a) |
Operating lease commitments |
As of October 31, 2019, the Company occupied its own building
premises and has no future minimum rental payments due under
various operating leases in the next twelve months.
As of October 31, 2019, the Company does not have any significant
capital commitments.
In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which
establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or
transactions that occurred after October 31, 2019 up through the
date of the these condensed consolidated financial statements.
During the period, the Company did not have any material
recognizable subsequent events.
