We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements.

All of our forward-looking statements are as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q only. In each case, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking information. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct.

Except as required by law, we do not undertake or plan to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in plans, assumptions, estimates or projections or other circumstances affecting such forward-looking statements occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if such results, changes or circumstances make it clear that any forward-looking information will not be realized.

(2)

The Company has adopted a policy of performing its annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of every year. In connection with the annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company estimated the fair value of our FintechAsia reporting unit using the income approach. In the annual 2023 test, the FintechAsia reporting unit exceeded the carrying values by more than 50 percent. The Company performed a qualitative test on our FintechAsia reporting unit and concluded it was more likely than not the fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its carrying value.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $39,136,871 in our FintechAsia reporting unit, primarily due to the surrendering of our credit token license, significant impacts on money broking transactional volume following the cryptocurrency market crash in 2022, and the fair value of share price which is much higher than the fair value of the assets acquired. Both significantly impacted forecasted cash flows used in our analysis. Moreover, operating expenses did not decline proportionally to revenue. In addition, inflationary pressures also caused our forecasted expenses to increase. Furthermore, our discounted cash flows utilized a higher risk-adjusted discount rate for the 2023 impairment test, primarily due to central banks raising interest rates in 2023 and increased country-specific risk due to macroeconomic factors.

The Company estimated the fair value of the FintechAsia reporting unit based on income approach. Fair value under the income approach was determined by discounting to present value the estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit.

In estimating the future cash flows of the FintechAsia reporting unit, the Company utilized a combination of market and company-specific inputs that a market participant would use in assessing the fair value of the reporting units. The primary market input was revenue growth rates. These rates were based upon historical trends and estimated future growth drivers such as the money brokering, payment solutions, and white labelling growth rate. Significant company-specific inputs included assumptions regarding how the reporting unit could leverage operating expenses as revenue grows.

Under the guideline public company methodology, the Company took into consideration specific risk differences between our reporting unit and the comparable companies, such as recent financial performance, size risks and product portfolios, among other considerations.

The Company used significant unobservable inputs within the income approach valuation method. These include the discount rate of 25.05%, being the calculated weighted average cost of capital for our company, and the long-term growth rate of 1.50% was based on the annual percentage change of real GDP growth. Significant increases (decreases) in growth rates, control premiums and multiples, assuming no change in discount rates, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Significant decreases (increases) in discount rates, assuming no changes in growth rates, control premiums and multiples, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

The Company will continue to monitor the fair value of our reporting units in our interim and annual reporting periods. While the policy of the Company on conducting impairment on annual basis stand, it is the directors’ responsibility to ensure that the reports (including annual and quarterly reports) are accurate. Hence, for good corporate governance practice purposes, the directors have also reviewed the fair value of goodwill in both quantitative and qualitative information during this quarterly period. If our estimated cash flows decrease, the Company may have to record further impairment charges in the future. Factors that could result in our cash flows being lower than our current estimates include: 1) decreased revenues caused by unforeseen changes the market, 2) our inability to achieve the estimated operating margins in our forecasts from our restructuring programs, cost saving initiatives, and other unforeseen factors, and 3) the weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar. Additionally, changes in the broader economic environment could cause changes to our estimated discount rates and comparable company valuation indicators, which may impact our estimated fair values. Due to the significant carrying amount of goodwill recognized, any further impairment may cause a significant adverse financial impact on the Company that could raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

For the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, the management has determined that a quarterly goodwill impairment assessment is not necessary for the following reasons, despite the annualized financial performance of the FintechAsia reporting unit for the full year 2024 being lower than our current estimates:

1. New Clients Onboarding: FintechAsia has onboarded new clients with the potential for significant transaction volumes. The level of contribution from these new clients remains undetermined, as it will depend on the volume of transactions. Based on discussions with clients, the Company believes there is still a possibility of reaching breakeven for FintechAsia by the end of 2024.

2. Cost Saving Initiatives: The costs associated with Fintech are expected to decrease significantly in 2024. These cost savings are expected to be reflected in the Company’s financial performance starting from the quarterly period ending September 30, 2024. The full impact of these cost-saving initiatives will be more accurately reflected in the Company’s results when the books are closed at year-end.

Given these factors, the management believes that conducting a quarterly goodwill impairment test would not provide an accurate reflection of the Company’s financial position and would not align with the adopted policy. The year-end goodwill impairment review for the annual financial statements is based on a complete 12-month period of results, allowing for a more robust assessment of the contracts entered into by the Company. This approach is consistent with the policy adopted for the Company’s goodwill assessment and the impairment provisions for the Form 10-K for the financial year ended December 31, 2023. Management will conduct a more detailed analysis to determine whether further impairment is required when preparing the Form 10-K for the financial year ending December 31, 2024.

For the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, our total assets stood at $20,417,969, while our total stockholders’ equity was $17,025,973. For discussion purposes, assuming a full goodwill impairment of $16,657,653, our total assets would be reduced to $3,760,316, and total stockholders’ equity would decrease to $368,320. Even after this assumed impairment, our total assets would still exceed total liabilities of $3,391,996 by $368,320, and our total stockholders’ equity would remain positive. Management believes that the going concern basis for the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate, even with a full goodwill impairment (which is highly unlikely, as FintechAsia will continue to drive value, and therefore goodwill will not require a full impairment). The scenario of full impairment presented above is a conservative assumption to demonstrate that, even in this unlikely case, the Group would still maintain positive total assets and stockholders’ equity.

For the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, the Company reported amounts due to related parties totalling $1,196,146. These loans were obtained to provide the Company with the necessary funds to meet its short-term financial obligations. To enhance investor confidence, the Company intends to negotiate with the related parties to secure their continued support by extending the due date of these loans for a period of no less than 12 months, with the assurance that no repayment will be sought until the Company’s liabilities are stabilized.

8.	REVENUE

Within the current period, the Company mainly derives its revenue from its whitelabelling service. The Company considers its performance obligation satisfied and recognizes revenue over time when the service is provided.

Previously, the Company derived its revenue mainly from transaction fees earned through financial payment and settlement services. For these transaction fee revenues, the Company views itself as the agent in these transactions and as a result, records revenue on a net basis. The Company considers its performance obligation satisfied and recognizes revenue at the point in time the transaction is processed.

The disaggregation of revenue of the Company by the services rendered for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:

	Total
	2024		2023

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

Revenue

Revenue generated by the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2024 consists of three components, including: Payment Service Provider (PSP), Foreign Exchange (FX) Conversion and Whitelabelling. The revenue generated from each component is outlined in the following table.

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
	2024		2023
Payment Services Provider (PSP)		—		182,333
Foreign Exchange (FX) Conversion		322		384,779
Whitelabelling		48,546		16,516
Referral fees⁽¹⁾		32,703		—
Total Revenue		81,571		583,628

(1)

We recognized $81,571 and $583,628 revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower-than-expected transactions for both the Payment Services Provider and Foreign Exchange (FX) Conversion services. There has been less onboarding of new clients in the second quarter of 2024 for our services, which mean we are primarily servicing existing clients. Additionally, the discontinue of our EMD agency service in December 2023, to comply with updated regulatory compliance mandates from the United Kingdom, also partially impacted our operations. Revenue recognized during the period is mainly from whitelabelling provided by FintechAsia and referral fees provided by FDS.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $21,805 compared to $42,470 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in cost of revenue is not in proportion to the decrease in revenue due to an increase in processing fees for our business transaction.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $59,766 compared to $541,158 for the period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease resulted primarily from the lower-than-expected revenue generated from our services.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $409,548 compared to $900,620 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease of $491,072 or 55% was mainly attributed to the significant decrease in the general and administrative expenses of Fintech. This includes a $142,272 or 86%, decrease of platform development fees, a $79,194 or 77% decrease of rent expenses, and a $30,856 or 31% decrease of consultation fees.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Revenue

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023
Payment Services Provider (PSP)		—		360,158

Whitelabelling		198,664		27,016
Referral fees		114,922		—
Total Revenue		340,965		1,430,822

We recognized $340,965 and $1,430,822 revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower-than-expected transactions for both the Payment Services Provider and Foreign Exchange (FX) Conversion services. There has been less onboarding of new clients in the second quarter of 2024 for our services, which mean we are primarily servicing existing clients. Additionally, the discontinue of our EMD agency service in December 2023, to comply with updated regulatory compliance mandates from the United Kingdom, also partially impacted our operations. Revenue recognized during the period is mainly from whitelabelling provided by FintechAsia and referral fees provided by FDS.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $58,955 compared to $42,505 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, due to increase in processing fees for our business transaction.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $282,010 compared to $1,388,317 for the period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease resulted primarily from the lower-than-expected revenue generated from our services and higher cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $1,293,440, composed solely of general and administrative expenses. Whilst, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $1,783,986, composed solely of general and administrative expenses. The decrease of $490,546 or 28% was mainly attributed to the significant decrease in the general and administrative expenses of Fintech, which decreased by $497,799 or 59%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2024, we had a cash balance of $3,455,972. During the period ended June 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities totaled $656,279. Net cash generated from investing activities totaled $252. Net cash generated by financing activities during the period totaled $341,106. The resulting change in cash for the period was a decrease of $309,987, which was primarily due to cash used in operating activities. As of June 30, 2024, we had current liabilities of $3,391,996, which was composed of amount due to related parties of $1,196,146, accounts payable of $382,109, and accruals and other payable of $1,813,741. We had net assets of $17,025,973 and $18,322,482 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. For the period ended June 30, 2024, we have recognized goodwill of $16,657,653 compared to $16,657,653 for the year ended December 31, 2023. After completing our annual impairment review for each reporting unit during the fourth quarter of 2023, we concluded that goodwill of Fintech was impaired in the year ended December 31, 2023 and an impairment loss of $39,136,871 was recorded. We have recognized goodwill of $16,657,653 as a result from the acquisition of Fintech during the year ended December 31, 2022. We believe no impairment is required during the period ended June 30, 2024. However, due to the significant carrying amount of goodwill recognized, any indication of impairment that causes losses and give rise to substantial doubt about our ability to continue as going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: research and development expense recognition, valuation of common shares and stock options, allowances of deferred tax assets, valuation of debt related instruments, and cash flow assumptions regarding going concern considerations. Although management believes the estimates that have been used are reasonable, actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management including our principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures performed as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that: (i) information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for accurate and timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In order to ensure that our subsequent periodic quarterly reports for the financial year 2024 are filed in accordance with effective internal control over financial reporting, the company has temporarily held the filings of these quarterly reports until our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023 is evaluated as effective by management.

For the financial year ended December 31, 2023, our management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, due to a weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, related to the acquisition of Fintech. This weakness was brought to our attention only when we received the SEC Staff Statement on June 11, 2024. In response to this weakness, the management has recognized the impact of the financial statement as described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2023. Due to this weakness, the Company’s management has expended, and will continue to expend, substantial effort and resources for the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting.

On October 28, 2024, we filed the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2023 with SEC. On November 4, 2024, we received the SEC Staff Statement confirming that they have completed their review of our Form 10-K/A. Hence, we are now filing this Quarterly Report for the period ended June 30, 2024 after the quarterly evaluation on our internal control over financial reporting has been completed, as described below.

Management’s Quarterly Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Lim Chun Hoo, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

Ensuring that the management of each subsidiary pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

Exercising the rights as the CEO of Company to oversee all internal control’s function, instruct amendment to policy and procedures, carry out internal control audit and other necessary means on each of the subsidiary to ensure that it is consistent with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

Provide reasonable assurance by involving in the subsidiary’s material decision-making process that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our 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. All material acquisition and disposal of subsidiary’s asset shall be approved by the board of director of the Company.

Because of its inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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 goodwill of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our Chief Executive Officer assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). A material weakness, as defined by SEC rules, is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their participation in that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

Accordingly management believes, based on its knowledge, that (1) this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material face necessary to make the statements made not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report, and (2) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the years and periods then ended.

This report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this report.

Changes in Internal Controls

As discussed above, there were changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal year that have affected the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our current plans include acquiring enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents, and increasing communication among our personnel, and considering the engagement of third-party professionals to consult with us on the application of complex accounting transactions.
