HEARTCORE
ENTERPRISES, INC.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 - ORGANIZATION AND
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
HeartCore
Enterprises, Inc. (“HeartCore USA” or the “Company”), a holding
company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware
on May 18, 2021.
On July 16, 2021, the Company executed a Share Exchange Agreement
with certain shareholders of HeartCore Co. Ltd. (“HeartCore
Japan”), a company that was incorporated in Japan on September 12,
2009. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the
Company issued 15,999,994 shares
of its common shares to the shareholders of HeartCore Japan in
exchange for 10,706
shares out of 10,984
shares of common shares issued by HeartCore Japan, representing
approximately 97.5% of HeartCore Japan’s
outstanding common shares. On February 24, 2022, the Company
purchased the remaining 278
shares of common shares of HeartCore Japan. As a result, HeartCore
Japan became a wholly owned operating subsidiary of the
Company.
The share exchange on July 16, 2021 has been accounted for as a
recapitalization between entities under common control since the
same controlling shareholders controlled these two entities before
and after the transaction. The consolidation of the Company and its
subsidiary has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared
on the basis as if the transaction had become effective as of the
beginning of the earliest period presented in the accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements.
The Company, via its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, HeartCore
Japan, is mainly engaged in the business of developing and sales of
comprehensive software. HeartCore USA and HeartCore Japan are
hereafter referred to as the Company.
On
September 6, 2022, HeartCore USA entered into a share exchange and
purchase agreement (“Sigmaways Agreement”) to acquire 51%
of the outstanding shares of Sigmaways, Inc. (“Sigmaways”), a
company incorporated under the laws of the State of California. The
consideration will be determined by the parties prior to the
closing of the acquisition. As of the date of this filing, the
transaction has not been closed.
NOTE
2 - SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of
Consolidation
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim
financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiary. Prior to February 24, 2022, ownership
interest of non-controlling party is presented as mandatorily
redeemable financial interest or non-controlling interest as
applicable. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not
include all of the information and disclosure required by the U.S.
GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring
nature considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for
the interim periods have been included. The unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and related
notes for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Use of Estimates
In
preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity U.S.
GAAP, the management is required to make certain estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates
are based on information available as of the date of the
consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required
to be made by management include, but are not limited to, the
allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and
equipment, the impairment of long-lived assets, valuation of
share-based compensation, valuation allowance of deferred tax
assets, implicit interest rate of operating and financing leases,
valuation of asset retirement obligations and revenue recognition.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
COVID-19
While
the duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future
developments that cannot be accurately predicted at this time, such
as the extent and effectiveness of containment actions, it has
already had an adverse effect on the global economy and the lasting
effects of the pandemic continue to be unknown. The Company may
experience customer losses, including due to bankruptcy or
customers ceasing operations, which may result in delays in
collections or an inability to collect accounts receivable from
these customers. The extent to which COVID-19 may continue to
impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or
liquidity continues to remain uncertain, and as of the date of
issuance of these financial statements, the Company is not aware of
any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to
its estimates or judgments or an adjustment to the carrying value
of the Company’s assets or liabilities. These estimates may change,
as new events occur and additional information is obtained, which
will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as soon
as they become known. Actual results could differ from those
estimates, and any such differences may be material to the
Company’s financial statements.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Pursuant
to the lease agreements for the office space, the Company is
responsible to restore these spaces back to its original statute at
the time of leaving. The Company recognizes an obligation related
to these restorations as asset retirement obligation included in
other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets,
in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 410,
“Asset Retirement Obligation Accounting”. The Company capitalizes
the associated asset retirement cost by increasing the carrying
amount of the related property and equipment. The following table
presents changes in asset retirement obligations:

Software Development Costs
Software
development costs are expensed as incurred until the point the
Company establishes technological feasibility. Technological
feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program
design or the completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the
Company between establishment of technological feasibility and the
point at which the product is ready for general release are
capitalized and amortized over the economic life of the related
products. The Company’s software development costs incurred
subsequent to achieving technological feasibility have not been
significant and all software development costs have been expensed
as incurred.
In
the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, software
development costs expensed as incurred amounted to $583,762 and $321,857, respectively.
These software development costs were included in the research and
development expenses.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived
assets with finite lives, primarily property and equipment, are
reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. If the estimated cash flows from the use of the asset
and its eventual disposition are below the asset’s carrying value,
then the asset is deemed to be impaired and written down to its
fair value. There were no impairments of these assets during the
nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Foreign Currency Translation
The
Company maintains its books and record in its local currency,
Japanese YEN (“JPY”), which is a functional currency as being the
primary currency of the economic environment in which its operation
is conducted. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency are translated into the functional currency at
the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other
than the functional currency are translated into the functional
currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet
dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the
statements of operations.
The
reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars
(“US$”), and the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements have been expressed in US$. In accordance with ASC Topic
830-30, “Translation of Financial Statements”, assets and
liabilities of the Company whose functional currency is not US$ are
translated into US$, 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
the translation of financial statements are recorded as a separate
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within
the statements of changes in shareholders’ equity
(deficit).
Translation
of amounts from the local currency of the Company into US$1 has
been made at the following exchange rates:

Revenue Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from
Contracts with customers”.
To
determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the
Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the
contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identify the performance
obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price,
including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable
that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate
the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in
the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company
satisfies the performance obligation. Revenue amount represents the
invoiced value, net of a value-added tax (“Consumption Tax”) and
applicable local government levies. The Consumption Tax on sales is
calculated at 10% of gross sales.
The
Company currently generates its revenue from the following main
sources:
Revenue from On-Premise Software
Licenses
for on-premise software provide the customer with a right to use
the software as it exists when made available to the customer. The
Company provides on-premise software in the form of both perpetual
licenses and term-based licenses which grant the customers with the
right for a specified term. Revenue from on-premise licenses is
recognized upfront at the point in time when the software is made
available to the customer. Licenses for on-premise software are
typically sold to the customer with maintenance and support
services in a bundle. Revenues under the bundled arrangements are
allocated based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”)
of on-premise software and maintenance and support service. The SSP
for maintenance and support services is estimated based upon
observable transactions when those services are sold on a
standalone basis. The SSP of on-premise software is typically
estimated using the residual approach as the Company is unable to
establish the SSP for on-premise licenses based on observable
prices given the same products are sold for a broad range of
amounts (that is, the selling price is highly variable) and a
representative SSP is not discernible from past transactions or
other observable evidence.
Revenue from Maintenance and Support Service
Maintenance
and support services provided with software licenses consist of
trouble shooting, technical support and the right to receive
unspecified software updates when and if available during the
subscription. Revenues from maintenance and support services are
recognized over time as such services are performed. Revenues for
consumption-based services are generally recognized as the services
are performed and accepted by the customers.
Revenue from Software as a Service (“SaaS”)
The
Company’s software is available for use as hosted application
arrangements under subscription fee agreements without licensing
the rights of the software to the customers. Subscription fees from
these applications are recognized over time on a ratable basis over
the customer agreement term beginning on the date the Company’s
solution is made available to the customer. The subscription
contracts are generally one year or less in length.
Revenue from Software Development and other Miscellaneous
Services
The
Company provides customers with software development and support
service pursuant to their specific requirements, which primarily
compose of consulting, integration, training, custom application,
and workflow development. The Company also provides other
miscellaneous services, such as 3D Space photography. The Company
generally recognizes revenue at a point in time when control is
transferred to the customers and the Company is entitled to the
payment, which is when the promised services are delivered and
accepted by the customers.
Revenue from Consulting Service
The
Company provides public listing related consulting services to
customers pursuant to the specific requirements prescribed in the
contracts, which primarily include communicating with intermediary
parties, preparing required documents and supporting the listing
process. Revenues from consulting services are recognized over time
as such services are performed. The consulting service contracts
are generally less than one year in length.
The
timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of
invoicing to the customers. The Company records a contract asset,
which is included in accounts receivable on the consolidated
balance sheets, when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing. The

sheets when revenues are recognized subsequent to cash collection
for an invoice. Deferred revenues are reported net of related
uncollected deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets.
The amount of revenues recognized during the nine months ended

deferred revenues balance was approximately $1.2

receivables. The Company conducts periodic reviews of the financial
condition and payment practices of its customers to minimize
collection risk on accounts receivable.
For

10.0% of the Company’s

customer B and C represent 18.5% and 10.5%, respectively,
of the Company’s total revenues.
For

Company accounts for share-based compensation awards in accordance
with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. The cost of
services received from employees and non-employees in exchange for
awards of equity instruments is recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations based on the estimated fair value of those
awards on the grant date and amortized on a straight-line basis
over the requisite service period or vesting period. The Company
records forfeitures as they occur.

options on behalf of the Company. On November 3, 2021, the Company
redeemed 484,056 shares (equivalent
to 324 shares of common
shares of HeartCore Japan) from the CEO of the Company.

were recorded by the Company as a share repurchase liability
included in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance
sheets with JPY1,830 (approximately
$16) as of December 31,
2021. The shares issued related to the early exercise of the
above-mentioned stock options were not considered outstanding as of
