NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS
INTRODUCTION
PHI Group, Inc. (n/k/a Philux Global Group Inc) (the “Company” or “PHI”) (www.philuxglobal.com) is primarily engaged in mergers and acquisitions, advancing Philux Global Funds, SCA, SICAV-RAIF, a “Reserved Alternative Investment Fund” (“RAIF”) under the laws of Luxembourg, and developing the Asia Diamond Exchange in Vietnam. Besides, the Company provides corporate finance services, including merger and acquisition advisory and consulting services for client companies through our wholly owned subsidiary Philux Capital Advisors, Inc. (formerly PHI Capital Holdings, Inc.) (www.philuxcapital.com) and invests in selective industries and special situations aiming to potentially create significant long-term value for our shareholders. Philux Global Funds intends to include a number of sub-funds for investment in select growth opportunities in the areas of renewable energy, real estate, infrastructure, healthcare, agriculture, and the Asia Diamond Exchange in conjunction with the International Financial Center in Vietnam.
BACKGROUND
Originally incorporated on June 8, 1982 as JR Consulting, Inc., a Nevada corporation, the Company applied for a Certificate of Domestication and filed Articles of Domestication to become a Wyoming corporation on September 20, 2017. In the beginning, the Company was foremost engaged in mergers and acquisitions and had an operating subsidiary, Diva Entertainment, Inc., which operated two modeling agencies, one in New York and one in California. In January 2000, the Company changed its name to Providential Securities, Inc., a Nevada corporation, following a business combination with Providential Securities, Inc., a California-based financial services company. In February 2000, the Company then changed its name to Providential Holdings, Inc. In October 2000, Providential Securities withdrew its securities brokerage membership and ceased its financial services business. Subsequently, in April 2009, the Company changed its name to PHI Group, Inc. From October 2000 to October 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries were engaged in various transactions in connection with mergers and acquisitions advisory and consulting services, real estate and hospitality development, mining, oil and gas, telecommunications, technology, healthcare, private equity, and special situations. In October 2011, the Company discontinued the operations of Providential Vietnam Ltd., Philand Ranch Limited, a United Kingdom corporation (together with its subsidiaries Philand Ranch - Singapore, Philand Corporation - US, and Philand Vietnam Ltd. - Vietnam), PHI Gold Corporation (formerly PHI Mining Corporation, a Nevada corporation), and PHI Energy Corporation (a Nevada corporation), and mainly focused on acquisition and development opportunities in energy and natural resource businesses.
The Company is currently promoting Philux Global Funds, SCA, SICAV-RAIF by launching Philux Global Select Growth Fund and potentially other sub-funds for investment in real estate, renewable energy, infrastructure, agriculture, healthcare and the International Financial Center and Asia Diamond Exchange in Vietnam. In addition, Philux Capital Advisors, Inc. (formerly Capital Holdings, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, continues to provide corporate and project finance services, including merger and acquisition (M&A) advisory and consulting services for U.S. and international companies. The Company has also formed Philux Global Advisors, Inc. to serve as the investment advisor to Philux Global Funds and other potential fund clients in the future.
In May 2023, the company signed a business cooperation agreement with SSE Global JSC, a Vietnamese joint stock company, to establish SSE Global Group, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, (www.sseglobalgroup.com) to commercialize a self-sustainable energy technology.
In June 2023 the Company signed a business cooperation agreement with Saphia Alkali JSC, a Vietnamese joint stock company, to form Sapphire Alkali Global Group in the United States to finance, manufacture, sell and distribute Saphia Alkali’s proprietary products on a worldwide basis.
In December 2023 the Company signed an Agreement for Comprehensive Cooperation Agreement with a Vietnamese inventor (the “Inventor”) to cooperate in the development and implementation of a proprietary clean energy technology using geomagnetic energy and focus on the following areas: (1) Applying the Inventor’s proprietary inventions that are specifically designed to exploit the earth’s available geomagnetic energy to generate energy and store energy without using an energy storage system (ESS), (2) Producing and providing generators using the earth’s available geomagnetic energy, (3) Producing engines (spaceships, airplanes, ships, cars, trains, motorcycles, etc.) powered by the earth’s available geomagnetic energy, and (4) Developing additional multiple new technologies that the Inventor has studied and researched. The Parties agree to use Philux Global Energy, Inc., a Wyoming corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Philux Global Group, Inc., Registration Number 2022-001066221, incorporated on January 3, 2022, website: www.philuxge.com, as the operating company to commercialize energy-related products based on the proprietary researches and developments of the Inventor group. The Inventor group filed a Provisional Patent Application with the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for the “Multi-Impulse Energy System” and shall assign and transfer certain intellectual properties related to energy generation using the earth’s available geomagnetic energy to Philux Global Energy, Inc. for commercialization.
The Company intends to integrate these clean energy technologies in the new subsidiary to be established in United Arab Emirates which will replace its former subsidiary CO2-1-0 (CARBON) Corp. to continue engaging in carbon emission mitigation using blockchain and crypto technologies.
No assurances can be made that the Company will be successful in achieving its plans.

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal reoccurring accruals have been made to the financial statements. The results of operation for the three months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts. As of September 30, 2024, the Company did not have any accounts receivable.
PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets from three to five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
REVENUE RECOGNITION STANDARDS
ASC 606-10 provides the following overview of how revenue is recognized from an entity’s contracts with customers: An entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Step 3: Determine the transaction price – The transaction price is the amount of consideration in a contract to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer.
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract – Any entity typically allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on the basis of the relative standalone selling prices of each distinct good or service promised in the contract.
Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation – An entity recognizes revenue when (or as) it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service).
The amount of revenue recognized is the amount allocated to the satisfied performance obligation. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time (typically for promises to transfer goods to a customer) or over time (typically for promises to transfer service to a customer). For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity recognizes revenue over time by selecting an appropriate method for measuring the entity’s progress toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. (Paragraphs 606-10 25-23 through 25-30).
In addition, ASC 606-10 contains guidance on the disclosures related to revenue, and notes the following:
It also includes a cohesive set of disclosure requirements that would result in an entity providing users of financial statements with comprehensive information about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts with customers. Specifically, Section 606-10-50 requires an entity to provide information about:
- Revenue recognized from contracts with customers, including disaggregation of revenue into appropriate categories.
- Contract balances, including the opening and closing balances of receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities.
- Performance obligations, including when the entity typically satisfies its performance obligations and the transaction prices is that is allocated to the remaining performance obligations in a contract.
- Significant judgments, and changes in judgments, made in applying the requirements to those contracts.
Additionally, Section 340-40-50 requires an entity to provide quantitative and/or qualitative information about assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer.
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 606-10. The Company recognizes consulting and advisory fee revenues in accordance with the above-mentioned guidelines and expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is incurred.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718-10-25 (previously SFAS 123R) and accordingly has adopted the modified prospective application method. Under this method, ASC 718-10-25 is applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards that are outstanding as of the date of adoption for which the requisite service has not been rendered (such as unvested options) is recognized over a period of time as the remaining requisite services are rendered.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The Company provides its service and receives marketable securities upon execution of transactions. Consequently, the value of the securities received from customers can be affected by economic fluctuations and each customer’s business growth. The actual realized value of these securities could be significantly different than recorded value.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06-Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting For Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption was permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.
Update No. 2018-13 – August 2018
Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement
Modifications: The following disclosure requirements were modified in Topic 820:
1. In lieu of a roll-forward for Level 3 fair value measurements, a non-public entity is required to disclose transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities.
2. For investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, an entity is required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly.
3. The amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date.
Additions: The following disclosure requirements were added to Topic 820; however, the disclosures are not required for non-public entities:
1. The changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period.
2. The range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.
The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.
Update No. 2018-07 – June 2018
Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting
Main Provisions: The amendments in this Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply the requirements of Topic 718 to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year.
Update No. 2017-13 - September 2017
Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), issued in May 2014 and codified in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and No. 2016-02.
The transition provisions in ASC Topic 606 require that a public business entity and certain other specified entities adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting 3 periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. FN2 All other entities are required to adopt ASC Topic 606 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019.
Update No. 2016-10 - April 2016
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing
The core principle of the guidance in Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:
1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
3. Determine the transaction price.
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. Rather, the amendments in this Update clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas.
The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company’s financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the implementation of these pronouncements would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole.

This will be similar as what he has established successfully for Dubai in 2002-2005 and is now incorporating the international changes of the last two decades together with combined information and data from another leading international financial center in Europe.
Dr. D’Orleans de France and Company have agreed that the Consultant will continue to provide the business development and structuring consulting services mentioned in the foregoing Recitals and any other services that may be required to assist the Company to successfully plan, design, develop, establish, and operate the International Financial Center in Vietnam.

The term of the engagement shall be for a period of two (2) years (“Engagement Period”) commencing the date of the signing of this Agreement. However, it is both Parties’ intention and commitment to complete this undertaking within six (6) months of the effective date and after the Free Economic Zone on Thanh Da Island, Ho Chi Minh City, subject to satisfaction of mutual and financial obligations by both Parties.
Once the Company has effectuated all budgeting and all financial requirements and obligations, the ongoing process will effectively materialize, and the Consultant then shall transfer the entire IFC venture to the Company.
Both parties agree that the Company shall pay the Consultant a total of Fifteen Million U.S. Dollars (USD 15,000,000) for the services that have been rendered and those to be rendered as set forth above in order to complete the structuring, design and implementation of the IFC project.

These factors as well as the uncertain conditions that the Company faces in its day-to-day operations with respect to cash flows create an uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the external disclosures of the Company including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed by us for reasonableness and conservatism on a consistent basis throughout the Company. Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include acquisitions, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, recoverability of deferred tax and the valuation of shares issued for services. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
The recoverability of long-lived assets requires considerable judgment and is evaluated on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. As it relates to definite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules as required by SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets to Be Disposed Of” as amended by SFAS No. 144, which also requires significant judgment and assumptions related to the expected future cash flows attributable to the intangible asset. The impact of modifying any of these assumptions can have a significant impact on the estimate of fair value and, thus, the recoverability of the asset.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. As of September 30, 2023, we estimated the allowance on net deferred tax assets to be one hundred percent of the net deferred tax assets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our financial condition on September 30, 2023 and factors that we believe could affect our future financial condition and results of operations. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). All references to dollar amounts in this section are in United States dollars.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company primarily focused on developing the Asia Diamond Exchange in conjunction with the International Financial Center in Vietnam, advancing the geomagnetic energy technology and devoting time and resources to concentrate on closing the financing packages that have been signed with certain international investor groups.

Other Income and Expenses:
The Company had a net other expenses of 905,424 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to net other expenses of $2,744,173 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in other expenses of $1,838,749 between the two periods was mainly due to a decrease of $1,836,825 in other expenses and a decrease of $1,942 in interest expenses.
Net Income (Loss):
Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was 1,076,674 as compared to net loss of $2,989,904, for the same period in 2023, which is equivalent to ($0.00) per share for the current period and ($0.00) per share for the corresponding period ended September 30, 2023, based on the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding at the end of each corresponding period.

This represents an increase of $332,685 in net cash used in operating activities between the two periods.

Management has taken action and formulated plans to meet the Company’s operating needs through June 30, 2025 and beyond. The working capital cash requirements for the next 12 months are expected to be generated from management fees, operations, sale of marketable securities and additional financing.

AVAILABLE FUTURE FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS: The Company may use various sources of funds, including investment management agreements, short-term loans, long-term debt, equity capital, and project financing as may be necessary. The Company believes it will be able to secure the required capital to implement its business plan.

We do not have significant interest rate risk, as most of our debt obligations are primarily short-term in nature to individuals, with fixed interest rates.
Valuation of Securities Risk
Since a part of our assets is in the form of marketable securities, the value of our assets may fluctuate significantly depending on the market value of the securities we hold.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), as of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation, our management (including our Chief Executive Officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2024, based on the material weaknesses defined below.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management’s Report on Internal Control of Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
| - | pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets, |
| | |
| - | provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and |
| | |
| - | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of authorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company’s management assessed the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023 based on the framework set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:
| (i) | inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; |
| | |
| (ii) | ineffective controls over period-end financial disclosure and reporting processes. |
If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company.
Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2024.
Management’s Remediation Plan
We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the future:
(i) | appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and |
| |
(ii) | adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. |
The remediation efforts set out in (i) are largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our consolidated financial statements for the quarterly report ended September 30, 2024 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.
Attestation Report of the Registered Accounting Firm
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Rule 308(b) of Regulation S-K, which permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting have come to management’s attention during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Except for some merchant cash advance cases that we intend to settle, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such action by or against Company has been threatened.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Investment in our securities is subject to various risks, including risks and uncertainties inherent in our business. The following sets forth factors related to our business, operations, financial position or future financial performance or cash flows which could cause an investment in our securities to decline and result in a loss.
General Risks Related to Our Business
Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.
Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management and certain external experts. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel and/or outside experts could impede implementation and execution of our business strategy and result in the failure to reach our goals. We do not carry key person life insurance for any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel in the diverse areas required for continuing our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, train or retain qualified personnel in the future.
Risks Related to Mergers and Acquisitions
Our strategy in mergers and acquisitions involves a number of risks and we have a limited history of successful acquisitions. Even when an acquisition is completed, we may have to continue our service for integration that may not produce results as positive as management may have projected.
The Company continues evaluating various opportunities and negotiating to acquire other companies, assets and technologies. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, amortization of acquired intangible assets and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We have limited experience in assimilating acquired organizations into our operations. Although potential synergy may be achieved by acquisitions of related technologies and businesses, no assurance can be given as to the Company’s ability to successfully integrate any operations, personnel, services or products that have been acquired or might be acquired in the future. Failure to successfully assimilate acquired organizations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
Acquisitions involve a number of special risks, including:
● | failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results; |
● | diversion of management’s attention; |
● | failure to retain key personnel of the acquired business; |
● | additional financing, if necessary and available, could increase leverage, dilute equity, or both; |
● | the potential negative effect on our financial statements from the increase in goodwill and other intangibles; and |
● | the high cost and expenses of completing acquisitions and risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities. |
These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition since the values of the securities received for the consulting service at the execution of the acquisition depend on the success of the company involved in acquisition. In addition, our ability to further expand our operations through acquisitions may be dependent on our ability to obtain sufficient working capital, either through cash flows generated through operations or financing activities or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.
Risks associated with private equity (PE) funds
There are, broadly, five key risks to private equity investing:
1. Operational risk: The risk of loss resulting from inadequate processes and systems supporting the organization. It is a key consideration for investors regardless of the asset classes that funds invest into.
2. Funding risk: This is the risk that investors are not able to provide their capital commitments and is effectively the ‘investor default risk’. PE funds typically do not call upon all the committed investor capital and only draw capital once they have identified investments. Funding risk is closely related to liquidity risk, as when investors are faced with a funding shortfall, they may be forced to sell illiquid assets to meet their commitments.
3. Liquidity risk: This refers to an investor’s inability to redeem their investment at any given time. PE investors are ‘locked-in’ for between five and ten years, or more, and are unable to redeem their committed capital on request during that period. Additionally, given the lack of an active market for the underlying investments, it is difficult to estimate when the investment can be realized and at what valuation.
4. Market risk: There are many forms of market risk affecting PE investments, such as broad equity market exposure, geographical/sector exposure, foreign exchange, commodity prices, and interest rates. Unlike in public markets where prices fluctuate constantly and are marked-to-market, PE investments are subject to infrequent valuations and are typically valued quarterly and with some element of subjectivity inherent in the assessment. However, the market prices of publicly listed equities at the time of sale of a portfolio company will ultimately impact realization value.
5. Capital risk: The capital at risk is equal to the net asset value of the unrealized portfolio plus the future undrawn commitments. In theory, there is a risk that all portfolio companies could experience a decline in their current value, and in the worst-case drop to a valuation of zero. Capital risk is closely related to market risk. Whilst market risk is the uncertainty associated with unrealized gains or losses, capital risk is the possibility of having a realized loss of the original capital at the end of a fund’s life.
There are two main ways that capital risk brings itself to bear - through the failure of underlying companies within the PE portfolio and suppressed equity prices which make exits less attractive. The former is impacted by the quality of the fund manager, i.e. their ability to select portfolio companies with good growth prospects and to create value, hence why fund manager selection is key for investors. The condition, method, and timing of the exit are all factors that can affect how value can be created for investors.
Risks Associated with Building and Operating a Diamond Exchange
Fundamentally, the key requirements for a successful diamond exchange include the following:
1. Supply: One of the most important things for a successful trading hub is the ability to secure ample, stable, and sustainable supply of commodities. In the case of a diamond exchange, adequate supply of rough diamond must be secured to make it successful.
2. Capital: Besides the infrastructure, facilities, systems, and amenities to operate the diamond exchange, the organizers must be able to arrange very large amounts of capital to facilitate the trade and other business activities related to the exchange.
3. Participants: The organizers must be able to attract a large number of international diamonteers to participate in the exchange. There is no guarantee that people will come when the exchange is built.
4. Venue: The venue must be able to provide competitive advantages compared with existing diamond exchanges in the world in terms of (a) modern facilities, latest technologies and state-of-the-art provisions, (b) tax relief, (c) financial facilitating network from big investors, (d) retail banking, lending institutions and foreign exchange facilities, (e) licenses and registrations, (f) global multi-commodities trading flatform, and (g) other amenities.
Risks Associated with International Markets
As some of our business activities are currently involved with international markets, any adverse change to the economy or business environment in these countries could significantly affect our operations, which would lead to lower revenues and reduced profitability.
Some of our business activities are currently involved with non-US countries. Because of this presence in specific geographic locations, we are susceptible to fluctuations in our business caused by adverse economic or other conditions in this region, including stock market fluctuation. A stagnant or depressed economy in these countries generally, or in any of the other markets that we serve, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Risks Related to Our Securities
Insiders have substantial control over the company, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control, even if our other stockholders wanted such a change to occur.
Though our executive officers and directors as of the date of this report, in the aggregate, only hold a small portion of our outstanding common stock, we have the majority voting rights associated with the Company’s Class B Series I Preferred Stock, which decision may allow the Board of Directors to exercise significant control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.
The price at which investors purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the prevailing market price.
The stock market often experiences significant price fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies whose stock is traded. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our shares. Investors may be unable to sell their shares of common stock at or above their purchase price, which may result in substantial losses.
Since we do not currently meet the requirements for our stock to be quoted on NASDAQ, NYSE MKT LLC or any other senior exchange, the tradability in our securities will be limited under the penny stock regulations.
Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the price of our securities on the OTCQB or OTC Markets is below $5.00 per share, our securities are within the definition of a “penny stock.” As a result, it is possible that our securities may be subject to the “penny stock” rules and regulations. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to certain types of investors are required to comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. These regulations require broker-dealers to:
*Make a suitability determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser;
*Receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction; and
*Provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.
These requirements may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability to resell our securities.
Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us.
It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded companies to obtain.
