DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Arion Group Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 7, 2016 and established a fiscal year end of January 31. We are currently a start-up company exploring various manufacturing and distribution business opportunities in the dietary ingredient and nutritional supplement industry. On November 1 and November 4, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with EZ Field Inc and Alta Health Supplies Inc respectively. The agreements set forth the exclusive terms and conditions for the Company to acquire and sell health supplements from and to these parties. By November 18, 2022, we expanded our list of suppliers by entering into an agreement with Bio Essence Health Science to develop cosmetic products and health supplements.
On November 21, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), a change in control of the Company occurred, pursuant to which Mr. Mingyong Huang acquired a total of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (or approximately 65.53% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of acquisition) from Ms. Nataliia Kriukova, the previous principal stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated November 21, 2018 (the “2018 SPA”) and other related agreements, Ms. Kriukova resigned from all management and Board positions. The Company also paid off stockholder loan owed to Ms. Kriukova in the amount of $2,663 with cash and inventory on hand pursuant to the 2018 SPA on November 21, 2018.
On May 5, 2020, Mr. Hui Song, a former member of the Board of Directors of the Company, resigned as a director. On June 3, 2020, Mr. Mingyong Huang entered into another Stock Purchase Agreement (the “2020 SPA”), pursuant to which Mr. Huang sold all of his 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Mr. Jay Hamilton, who becomes the Company’s majority and controlling stockholder. On June 4, 2020, Ms. Maria Itzel Torres Siegrist resigned as Secretary of the Company. In connection with the change of control as of June 17, 2020 the Board appointed Mr. Hamilton to the Company’s Board of Directors. Also, as of June 17, 2020, the Board appointed Mr. Hamilton as President/CEO and Ms. Brenda Bin Wang as CFO and Mr. Huang as Secretary. Mr. Huang remains a director of the Company.
Prior to November 21, 2018, we distributed an assortment of cedar phyto barrels in the USA and Europe. Our products were offered at prices marked-up from 80% to 100% of our cost. Our customers were asked to pay us 100% in advance. We filled placed orders and supplied the products within a period of thirty days (30) days or less following receipt of any written order. Customers were responsible for the custom duties, taxes, insurance or any other additional charges that might incur. The business of distribution of cedar phyto barrels was discontinued after November 21, 2018.
Since the change of control on November 21, 2018, we have changed our business plan to focus on medical & health care industry, including consulting services provided to third parties for planning, design and compliance of cannabis cultivation in the USA. On November 18, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Bio Essence Health Science and EZ Field Inc to develop cosmetic products and health supplements. We also established distribution channels through Alta Health Supplies Inc, Tak Ye International Inc and Xin Shi Dai Express. We have generated $20,818 of sales from distribution services since the inception of this business plan.
The Company’s financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and are expressed in the U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is January 31.

PENNY STOCK CONSIDERATIONS
The trading of our common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus are subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.
Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $100,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:
| ● | Deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt; |
| ● | Disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities; |
| ● | Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and |
| ● | Make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account. |
Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to buy or sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling stockholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our common stock in the market place. In addition, the liquidity for our common stock may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our common stock. Our shares are likely to be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future.
STOCKHOLDERS
As of the date of this Report, we had approximately 37 stockholders of record of our common stock. This figure does not include holders of shares registered in “street name” or persons, partnerships, associates, corporations or other entities identified in security position listings maintained by depositories.
DIVIDENDS
We have never paid or declared any dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
We currently do not have any equity compensation plans.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report. Our audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As of January 31, 2023, we had total assets of $33,902 and total liabilities of $259,784. We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.
We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.
We discontinued our cedar phyto barrels distribution business upon the change in control occurred on November 21, 2018 and started to implement a new business plan to pursue business opportunities in manufacturing and distribution of certain dietary ingredient and nutritional supplement products. On November 18, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Bio Essence Health Science and EZ Field Inc to develop cosmetic products and health supplements. We also established distribution channels through Alta Health Supplies Inc, Tak Ye International Inc and Xin Shi Dai Express. We have generated $20,818 of sales from distribution services since the inception of this business plan. Our net loss for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2023 was $81,923, as compared to a net loss of $72,630 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022.
Year ended January 31, 2023 compared to the year ended January 31, 2022
Revenue
During the year ended January 31, 2023, the Company generated $20,818 of sales from the sale of health supplements distributed through Alta Health Supplies Inc. During the year ended January 31, 2022, the Company neither sold any product nor generated any revenue.
Operating Expenses
During the year ended January 31, 2023, we incurred total general and administrative expenses of $89,228 which is an increase for $17,398 compared to $71,830 for the year ended January 31, 2022. General and administrative expenses incurred generally related to corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, such as legal and accounting and various compliance costs.
Our net loss for the year ended January 31, 2023 was $81,923, compared to net loss of $72,630 for the year ended January 31, 2022. The increase in net loss in the year ended January 31, 2022 in the amount of $9,293 represents a 12.79% increase over the net loss in the previous year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. While the Company has started a new business plan, the Company has not generated sufficient revenue to cover its operating costs. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Our independent auditor’s report accompanying our January 31, 2023 and 2022 audited financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements have been prepared “assuming that we will continue as a going concern,” which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. This assumption may, however, not hold true for a variety of reasons, many of which are out of our control.
As of January 31, 2023 our current assets were $33,624 compared to $3,863 in current assets at January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2023, our total assets were $33,902 compared to $4,141 in total assets at January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2023, our current liabilities were $259,784, or an increase in the amount of $111,684 (or 75.41%) compared to $148,100 as of January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2023, we had loan from stockholder in the total amount of $259,784, or 100% of our total liabilities, as we have not been able to generate a steady cash flow to cover our operating expenses and have to rely heavily on the financial support from our stockholder.
Total stockholders’ deficit was $225,882 as of January 31, 2023, compared to $143,959 as of January 31, 2022, representing an increase in the amount of $81,923.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the year ended January 31, 2023, net cash used by operating activities was $96,816, consisting of net loss of $81,923, an increase in advance to supplier of $4,794, a decrease in accounts payable of $2,599, an increase of $4,500 in accrued expense and an increase in $3,000 in security deposit.
For the year ended January 31, 2022, net cash used by operating activities was $77,031, consisting of net loss of $72,630, and a decrease in accounts payable of $4,401.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities during years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022 were $0 and $0, respectively.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the year ended January 31, 2023 was $114,500. We borrowed a total of $114,500 loan from our major stockholder for general business operations.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the year ended January 31, 2022 was $61,000. We borrowed a total of $61,000 loan from our major stockholder for general business operations.
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Currently we are financed by our major stockholder. Our working capital requirements for the next 12 months are expected to increase if and when we are able to execute on our current business plan. As of January 31, 2023, we had a working capital deficit in the amount of $226,160.
We also intend to finance our operating expenses and business development costs with further issuances of securities and debt issuances. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current stockholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.
MATERIAL COMMITMENTS
As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any material commitments.
PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT
We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
In December 2019, a strain of coronavirus entitled COVID-19 emerged in China and spread to other countries including to the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a public health pandemic of international concern, which has resulted in travel restrictions and in some cases, prohibitions of non-essential activities, disruption and shutdown of businesses and greater uncertainty in global financial markets.
In the United States in which we and our customers, and partners operate, the health concerns as well as political or governmental developments in response to COVID-19 could result in economic, social or labor instability or prolonged contractions in certain end markets. These events could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations and financial condition.
At this time, it is difficult to predict the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will impact our business or operating results, which is highly dependent on uncertain future developments, including the severity of the pandemic and the actions taken or to be taken by governments and private businesses in relation to its containment. The Company’s plan pf conducting new businesses might be delayed and the effect of the outbreak may not be fully reflected in our operating results until future periods.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Arion Group Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Arion Group Corp. (the “Company”) as of January 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (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 January 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern Matter
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 has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. 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.

ARION GROUP CORP.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2023 AND 2022
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
ARION GROUP CORP. (“we”, “our”, the “Company”) is a corporation established under the corporation laws in the State of Nevada on November 7, 2016. The Company has adopted January 31 as its fiscal year end.
On November 21, 2018, a change in control of the Company occurred, pursuant to which Mr. Mingyong Huang acquired a total of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (or approximately 65.53% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of acquisition) from Ms. Nataliia Kriukova, a former principal stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) and other related agreements, Ms. Kriukova resigned from all management and Board positions. The Company also paid off stockholder loan owed to Ms. Kriukova in the amount of $2,663 with cash and inventory on hand pursuant to the SPA on November 21, 2018.
On May 5, 2020, Mr. Hui Song, a former member of the Board of Directors of the Company, resigned as a director. On June 3, 2020, Mr. Mingyong Huang entered into another Stock Purchase Agreement (the “2020 SPA”), pursuant to which Mr. Huang sold all of his 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Mr. Jay Hamilton, who becomes the Company’s majority and controlling stockholder. On June 4, 2020, Ms. Maria Itzel Torres Siegrist resigned as Secretary of the Company. In connection with the change of control as of June 17, 2020 the Board appointed Mr. Hamilton to the Company’s Board of Directors. Also, on June 17, 2020, the Board appointed Mr. Hamilton as President/CEO and Ms. Brenda Bin Wang as CFO and Mr. Huang as Secretary. Mr. Huang remains a director of the Company.
Prior to November 21, 2018, we distributed an assortment of cedar phyto barrels in the USA and Europe. The business of distribution of cedar phyto barrels was discontinued after November 21, 2018. We are currently a start-up company exploring various manufacturing and distribution business opportunities in the dietary ingredient and nutritional supplement industry.
On November 1, 2022 and November 4, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with EZ Field Inc and Alta Health Supplies Inc respectively. The agreements set forth the exclusive terms and conditions for the Company to acquire and sell health supplements from and to these parties. On November 18, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Bio Essence Health Science to develop cosmetic products and health supplements. We also established distribution channels through Tak Ye International Inc and Xin Shi Dai Express. We have generated $20,818 of sales from distribution services since the inception of this business plan.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended January 31, 2023 have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, incurred a net loss in fiscal year 2023 and has a working capital deficit as of January 31, 2023. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking third party equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions and information that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions of future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty and, accordingly, these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. Significant estimates and assumptions by management include, among others, going concern and income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. While the Company believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. The current COVID-19 pandemic and general economic environment also increase the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.
Related Parties Transactions
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company conducts business with its related parties in the ordinary course of business. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due from/to related parties due to their related party nature.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. The Company recognizes the tax effects of uncertain tax positions only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company has not identified any material uncertain tax positions and recognizes interest and penalties in income tax expense, if applicable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with financial institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the federally insured limits. These deposits are maintained with reputable financial institutions and are redeemable upon demand. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common stock outstanding and dilutive potential common stock during the year.
Property and Equipment and Depreciation Policy
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated life of the asset, which is 3 years.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that and asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes its revenue in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from contracts with customers. The Company’s revenue consists of product sales. The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations have been satisfied by transferring control of the goods to customers. Control is generally transferred upon delivery of the goods to the customer. At the time of delivery, the customer is invoiced. The Company’s contracts with customers generally contain one performance obligation. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five-step process:
| 1. | identification of the contract with a customer; |
| 2. | identification of the performance obligations in the contract; |
| 3. | determination of the transaction price; |
| 4. | allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and |
| 5. | recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied. |
For the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s revenue from health supplements sold was $20,818 and $0, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements
There were various accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on our financial position, operations or cash flows.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company may rely on advances from related parties in support of the Company’s efforts and cash requirements until such time that the Company can support its operations or attains adequate financing through sales of its equity or traditional debt financing. There is no formal written commitment for continued support by officers, directors, or stockholders. Amounts represent advances or amounts paid in satisfaction of liabilities. The advances are considered temporary in nature and have not been formalized by a promissory note.
During the year ended January 31, 2023, the Company’s controlling stockholder Mr. Jay Hamilton loaned the Company $114,500 to cover the Company’s operating expenses and paid $4,283 of expenses on behalf of the Company. The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand. As of January 31, 2023, the total outstanding balance of loan from stockholder was $259,784.
During the year ended January 31, 2022, the Company’s controlling stockholder Mr. Jay Hamilton loaned the Company $61,000 to cover the Company’s operating expenses. The loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand. As of January 31, 2022, the total outstanding balance of loan from stockholder was $141,001.
The Company has ceased operations and use of the prior office at 16839 Gale Ave., #210, City of Industry, CA 91745 which was solely owned by Mr. Mingyong Huang.
NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Arion Group Corp. was registered in the State of Nevada and has been subject to the tax laws of the United States of America and, beginning in January 2019, the state of California, where the Company’s executive office is now located. The federal corporate statutory tax rate of 21% is effective January 1, 2018. California’s statutory tax rate is 8.84%. The Company’s income tax returns have not been audited by U.S. Internal Revenue Service and any state tax authorities and all of its tax returns for prior years, including the initial tax year ended January 31, 2017, could be subject to examination. The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company’s tax audits are resolved in a manner inconsistent with its expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.
The provision for income taxes consists of the following:
| | Year Ended | | | Year Ended | |
| | January 31 | | | January 31 | |
| | 2023 | | | 2022 | |
Current | | | | | | |

Income Tax Provisions | | $ | 800 | | | $ | 800 | |
The reconciliation of the difference between the Company’s statutory tax rates and effective tax rates for the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022 consists of the following:
| | Year Ended | | | Year Ended | |
| | January 31 | | | January 31 | |

As of January 31, 2023, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $325,464 and $322,264 for Federal and California state income tax purposes that may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income. The U.S. Congress enacted the CARES Act in March 2020 with provisions providing tax reliefs to businesses and individuals, including a new rule to allow federal NOL carryback to each of the five taxable years in which the NOL arises. As of January 31, 2022, California has temporarily suspended NOL carryback but generally allows the NOL to be carried forward for 20 years. As of January 31, 2023, all of the $325,464 of Federal NOL is carried forward indefinitely, while the $322,264 California NOL is being carried forward into the next 20 years and will start expiring on January 31, 2039 if not fully utilized. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.
The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC Topic 740-10-30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-40 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a 100% valuation allowance.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. This rule defines internal control over financial reporting as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions; |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2023. Based upon this evaluation, our CEO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which are described below.
Management’s Reports on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2023. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2023. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We had the following material weaknesses at January 31, 2023:
| ● | We have a lack of proper segregation of duties. Management is dominated by a single individual without adequate compensating controls. |
| ● | Our internal control structure lacks multiple levels of review and oversight. |
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the SEC rules that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
