SCIENTIFIC ENERGY, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

 

Scientific Energy, Inc., (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on May 30, 2001.  Prior to August 2011, the Company was principally devoted to the buying and selling of various types and grades of graphite, such as medium- and high-carbon graphite, high-purity graphite, micro-powder graphite and expandable graphite.   In August 2011, the Company decided to engage in a business of e-commerce platform. Currently the Company is in the process of developing a website, which provides an e-commerce platform, where registered members can exchange goods and services.

 

On March 28, 2006, the Company set up a wholly owned subsidiary, PDI Global Limited (“PDI”), which was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in order to engage in a business of e-commerce platform.

 

In January 2008, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd., a Hong Kong company.  Under the agreement, a joint venture company, Kabond Investments Ltd (the “JVC”), was established in Hong Kong, and the Company invested $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.09 million) into the JVC for 72% of the JVC’s capital shares, and China Resources Development Group Ltd., jointly with its partner, invested $15.4 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $1.98 million) into the JVC to receive 28% of the JVC’s capital shares.  In December 2008, all equity interest of the JVC owned by the Company was sold to a third party for $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5,109,743).

 

In January 2009, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PDI, entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd.  Under the agreement, the Company agreed to invest $43,040,000 Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.55 million) into a joint venture company Sinoforte Ltd. in Hong Kong (“Sinoforte”).  The Company got 80% of Sinoforte's capital shares, and China Resources invested $10,222,000 Hong Kong dollars, approximately $1,318,967, and another investor invested $538,000 Hong Kong dollars, or approximately $69,419, into Sinoforte for 19% and 1% of Sinoforte's capital shares, respectively.  The main business of Sinoforte was trading mineral products such as graphite produced in China.  In June 2009 and September 2009, respectively, China Resources and the other minority investor cancelled their investments in Sinoforte, and the full amount of their original investments was returned.  As a result, Sinoforte became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDI. On December 8, 2020, PDI sold all the shares of Sinoforte to the Company at consideration of HK$10.

 

On February 28, 2012, the Company set up a wholly-owned subsidiary, Makeliving Ltd., which was incorporated in the Cayman Islands in order to engage in a business of e-commerce platform.

 

On January 23, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Cityhill Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of South Sea Petroleum Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong listed public company, pursuant to which parties agreed to establish a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”).  Each party owns 50% equity interest in the Joint Venture respectively.

 

On February 8, 2021, the Company acquired an entire share of a Hong Kong company, Qwestro Limited, for HK$1,000 without any goodwill and bargaining purchase.

 

On March 24, 2021, the Company disposed of its wholly-owned dormant subsidiary, PDI Global Limited, with a positive net worth of $1 to an unaffiliated third-party purchaser for $1.  

 

In September 27, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of 98.75% shares of Macao E-Media Development Company Limited (“MED”). As consideration for the MED shares, the Company agreed to issue the Sellers, or its assigns, in a total of 131,337,500 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a consideration of $0.50 per share, in the aggregate consideration of $65,668,750 (the “Purchase Price”). As a result of this acquisition, MED becomes a 98.75% owned subsidiary of the Company. MED was founded at Macau in 2011. Its main area of business includes food and grocery order-pickup-delivery services from local restaurants, supermarkets and hotels.

 

MED has five subsidiaries, each of which is in charge of respective area such as Development & Maintenance, Marketing & Operation, Logistics & Delivery, Payment & Clearance, Emerging Market Business Development.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, and the results of its operations and its cash flows. Operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

 

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate enough revenues and/or obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the financial position and the results of operations of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries, Macao E-Media Development Company Limited, Makeliving, Ltd. and Sinoforte Limited.  Qwestro Limited, in turn, is the 100% owned subsidiary and consolidates with Sinoforte Limited.

 

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for acquisition of entities that include inputs and processes and has the ability to create outputs as business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price of the acquisition to the tangible assets, liabilities and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses and integration costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The following (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 5, 2023.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenue is recorded.

 

The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or services have not been rendered or are subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or services have been rendered or no refund will be required.

 

Revenues on the sale of products, net of estimated costs of returns and allowance, are recognized at the time products are shipped to customers, legal title has passed, and all significant contractual obligations of the Company have been satisfied. Products are generally sold on open accounts under credit terms customary to the geographic region of distribution. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the customers and generally does not require collateral to secure the accounts receivable.

 

The Company is operating mobile platform of ordering and delivery services for restaurants and supermarket in Macau, together recognizing revenue on closed transactions.

Segment information

 

ASC 280-10 establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance.  All sales and substantial assets of the Company are in Macao. The Company applies the management approach to the identification of our reportable operating segments as provided in accordance with ASC 280-10.  The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to a concentration of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable.  Generally, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents in interest-bearing accounts may exceed FDIC insurance limits. The financial stability of these institutions is periodically reviewed by senior management.

 

As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company maintained $2,536,777 and $2,058,216 in foreign bank accounts not subject to FDIC coverage.

 

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits held by banks.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 220-10, Comprehensive Income (“ASC 220-10”) which establishes standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources.  It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. ASC 220-10 requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company translates the foreign currency consolidated financial statements into US Dollars (“USD”) using the year or reporting period-end or average exchange rates in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”).  Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries were translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date.  Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect for the periods presented.

 

The consolidated financial statements were presented in US Dollars except as other specified.

 

The cumulative translation adjustment is included in the accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) within stockholders’ equity (deficit).  Foreign currency transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.

 

The exchange rates used to translate amounts in HKD and MOP into US Dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements were as follows:

Property, plant and equipment

 

The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Office equipment

 

3-5 years

 

Furniture and fixtures

 

3-5 years

 

 

The Company evaluates the carrying value of items of property, plant and equipment to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  The carrying value of an item of property, plant and equipment is considered impaired when the projected undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset are less than its carrying value.  The Company measures impairment based on the amount by which the carrying value of the respective asset exceeds its fair value.  Fair value is determined primarily using the projected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

 

Intangible assets

 

Purchased intangible assets are recognized and measured at fair value upon acquisition. Separately identifiable intangible assets that have determinable lives continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method based on their estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Software

 

1-10 years

 

 

The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

Trade receivables

 

Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on management’s assessment of potential losses based on the credit history and relationships with the customers. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if bad debt allowance is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable.

 

The Company considered the amounts of receivables in dispute and believes an allowance for these receivables were not necessary as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This topic does not require any new fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

 


11


Level 1 —

Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 —

Other inputs that is directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 

 

 

Level 3 —

Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

 

 

 

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Earnings Per Share (‘EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year plus potential dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants.  

 

The effect of stock options on diluted EPS is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase the Company's common stock at the average market price during the period.  The Company has no stock options, warrants or other potentially dilutive instruments outstanding at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

 

The Company entered into a JV agreement with an independent third party, to form a JV company. The joint venture agreement provides the Company with only the rights to the assets and obligation for the liabilities of the joint arrangement resting primarily with the JV. In adopting ASC Topic 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), the Company’s investment in joint venture is accounted for using the equity method.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value, as determined using the weighted average cost method. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and if applicable, an allowance is made for writing down the inventory to its net realizable value, if lower than cost. On an ongoing basis, inventories are reviewed for potential write-down for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventories which equals the difference between the costs of inventories and the estimated net realizable value based upon forecasts for future demand and market conditions. When inventories are written-down to the lower of cost or net realizable value, it is not marked up subsequently based on changes in underlying facts and circumstances.

 

The Company entered into a purchase agreement with JV company and through their platform to purchase of gold. In adopting ASC Topic 330, Inventory, it permits certain inventories such as precious metals, agricultural and mineral inventories to be stated above cost in exceptional cases. We believe that because our business model is to trade gold and held in short-term, market value is a more useful and relevant measurement than lower of cost or market value.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is recorded as the difference between the aggregate consideration paid for in a business combination and the fair value of the acquired net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Based on that qualitative assessment, if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company conducts a quantitative goodwill impairment test, which involves comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. The Company estimates the fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of the income and market approach. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference.

 

Non-controlling interest

 

Non-controlling interests represent the equity interests in the subsidiaries that are not attributable, either directly or indirectly, to the Company.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements


12


that may have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $12,358,564 as of September 30, 2023. The Company also experienced insufficient cash flows from operations and will be required continuous financial support from the shareholders. The Company will need to raise capital to fund its operations until it is able to generate sufficient revenue to support the future development. Moreover, the Company may be continuously raising capital through the sale of debt and equity securities.

 

The Company’s ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this stage. If the Company is unsuccessful in its endeavors, it may be forced to cease operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty which may include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This report contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  We use words such as "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "future," "intend," "plan," and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.  You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We conduct our businesses primarily through our 98.75% owned subsidiary, Macao E-Media Development Company Limited, a Macau Company (“MED”), and 50% owned subsidiary, Gold Gold Gold Limited (“3G”), a Hong Kong company. MED has five subsidiaries, each of which is in charge of respective area such as Development & Maintenance, Marketing & Operation, Logistics & Delivery, Payment & Clearance, Emerging Market Business Development.

 

In this MD&A section, we will primarily discuss the business of MED, as 3G is a joint venture and its financial position and results of operations are not consolidated with our consolidated financial statements. The financial position and results of operations of 3G are summarized in the Notes to our consolidated financial statements.

 

As a leading mobile platform of ordering and delivery services for restaurants or other merchants, we operate in Macau, and our businesses are built on our platform, Aomi App (the “Platform”). The Platform connects restaurants/merchants (collectively referred to as “Merchants”) with consumers and delivery riders. The Platform is created to serve the needs of these three key constituencies and to become more intelligent and efficient with every customer order. As we grow, we enjoy the benefits of scale and enjoy our competitive advantages, and at the same time we deliver substantial benefits to everyone we serve.

 

Since 2022, with the changes in the macroeconomic environment, market, and competition, our business strategy was adjusted to maintain a stable market share, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and ensure the Company’s profitability. Since 2022, we reduced or suspended our investment in certain exploratory business activities, such as online supermarket, live broadcasting business, and focus on our main business and the business initiatives with good profitability. At the same


17


time, we carried out various measures to reduce distribution costs and platform operating costs, and lay off some employees to reduce labor costs.

There can be no assurance that additional capital will become available or, if it does, that it will become available on acceptable terms, or that any additional capital we may obtain will be sufficient to meet our long-term needs. We currently have no commitments for any additional capital, both internally and externally.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We re-evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis.  Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.  

 

We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently applied.  Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.
