FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: NO ASSURANCES INTENDED

 

This Report contains certain forward-looking statements regarding USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation, its business and financial prospects. These statements represent Management’s best estimate of what will happen. Nevertheless, there are numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ dramatically from the results suggested in this Report. Among the more significant risks are:

 

We have no business operations and have no assets. Unless the Company obtains additional capital or acquires an operating company, the Company will not be able to undertake significant business activities.

 

The Company’s business plan contemplates that it will acquire an operating company in exchange for common stock. If that occurs, management will determine the nature of the company that is acquired, which is likely to be a company with which management has a pre-existing relationship. Investors in the Company will have to rely on the business acumen of management in determining that the acquisition is in the best interest of the Company. If management lacks sufficient skill to operate successfully, the Company’s shares may lose value.

 

Because these and other risks may cause the Company’s actual results to differ from those anticipated by Management, the reader should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements that appear in this Report.

 

PART 1

 

Item 1. Business

 

USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation (the “Company”) was originally incorporated on July 26, 1990 in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida as Marketing Educational Corp. On June 13, 2006, the Company was reincorporated by merger in the State of Nevada.

 

The Company was originally formed for the purpose of direct marketing of certain educational materials and photography packages. The educational materials marketed by the Company consisted of encyclopedias, learning books, educational audio and video tapes which were designed to be used in various combinations to accommodate the educational levels and needs of families with children of all ages. During 1991, the Company completed a public offering of 150,000 units of common stock, through a Registration Statement on Form S-18 (Registration No.33-37039-A).

 

The Company has had no operations since 1992 and is currently a “shell company” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) and Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The Company is defined as a shell company because it has no operations or assets.

 

 

 

 

On December 7, 2012, USA Zhimingde International Group Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Zhimingde Inc.”) purchased 1,687,502 shares of the Company’s common stock from Halter Financial Investments, L.P., Glenn A. Little and The Halter Group, Inc. pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase”). Following the Purchase, Zhimingde Inc. owned approximately 91% of the voting securities of the Company. The Purchase resulted in a change in control of the Company. Subsequently, the Company changed its name to USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation effective on February 4, 2013.

 

For some period of time the Company has been exploring business opportunities that would involve the use of the Company as a shell in a reverse merger transaction, in which an operating company would be merged into USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation in exchange for shares of our capital stock. We continue to explore business opportunities, particularly businesses with which our Chairman, Zhongquan Zou, has experience. The business that we ultimately pursue will be determined by Mr. Zou, who is the sole member of our Board of Directors. His decision will be based on the prospects for the business, the availability of capital to fund the business, and the potential benefits of the business to the shareholders of USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation.

 

It is likely that we will effectuate a business combination with a target whose business operations and place of formation are located in the People’s Republic of China. In particular, we may combine with one or more entities that Mr. Zou owns or controls. In such event, we may face the significant additional risks associated with doing business in that country. In addition to the language barriers, different presentations of financial information, different business practices, and other cultural differences and barriers that may make it difficult to evaluate such a merger target, we may encounter ongoing business risks associated with uncertain legal systems and applications of law, uncertain economic policies and potential political and economic instability.

 

Employees

 

We currently have no employees. The need for employees and their availability will be addressed in connection with the decision whether or not to acquire or participate in specific business opportunities.

Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis

 

Results of Operations

 

We currently have no assets and no operations. During the year ended December 31, 2016 we realized no revenue and incurred $46,003 in operating expenses, resulting in a loss from operations and net loss in that amount. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we realized no revenue and incurred $53,323 in operating expenses, resulting in a loss from operations and a net loss in that amount. The expenses in these years represent the costs of maintaining the Company as an SEC reporting company, as well as expenses related to maintaining the Company’s corporate existence. Our expenses were greater in 2015 because, during the first quarter of 2015, we filed with the SEC our annual and quarterly reports for all periods from the second quarter of 2013 through the third quarter of 2014, and incurred the expenses related to those filings. We now plan to stay current in our filing obligations, and do not expect to replicate the level of those expenses until we acquire an operating business.

 

Our major expenses consisted of fees to lawyers and auditors necessary to maintain our standing as a fully-reporting public company and other administrative expenses attendant to the trading of our common stock. We do not expect any significant change in the level of these expenses, unless the Company acquires or initiates business operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At December 31, 2016 we had a working capital deficit of $130,832, as we had no assets and had $130,832 in accrued expenses. Our liabilities consist of amounts payable to our professional advisors for services, which increased by $26,292 during 2016. The remainder of our $40,003 in operating expenses during the year ended December 31, 2016 were paid by USA Zhimingde International Group Inc., which is our majority shareholder, or by affiliates of that entity. We expect our working capital deficit to continue indefinitely, until we initiate or obtain an operating company capable of funding our overhead expenses.

 

Our operations used no cash during the year ended December 31, 2016, as we increased our accrued expenses by $26,292 during that period and the remainder of our expenses were paid by our majority shareholder as a capital contribution. In the future, unless we achieve the financial and/or operational wherewithal to sustain our operations, it is likely that we will continue to rely on loans and capital contributions to sustain our operations.

 

Mr. Zou, our Chief Executive Officer, who controls the majority shareholder, or other entities that he controls have financed our operations by making capital contributions to cover our expenses. We expect that Mr. Zou’s controlled affiliates will continue to fund our operations until we have completed an acquisition of an operating company, and that we will continue to require additional capital contributions or financing to maintain our existence as a shell company for the next twelve months, if necessary.  Our management is not required to fund our operations by any contract or other obligation.

 

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and related financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 our external disclosures 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. 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. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, the Company views certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on the Company’s financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Among our critical policies is the determination, described in Note 5 to our financial statements, that the Company should record a valuation allowance for the full value of the deferred tax asset created by the net operating loss carryforwards. The primary reason for the determination was the lack of certainty as to whether the Company will achieve profitable operations in the future and be able to utilize their carryforwards.

 

5 

 

 

Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause any effects on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Impact of Accounting Pronouncements

 

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements that have had, or are expected to have, a material effect on our financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

The Board of Directors and 

Stockholders of USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, change in stockholders’ (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2016. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company has no viable operations or significant assets and is dependent upon its major stockholder to provide sufficient working capital to maintain the integrity of the corporate entity. These conditions and the Company’s lack of equity and viable operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 6. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

1.GENERAL

 

Organization and Business Nature

 

USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation (formerly, Marketing Acquisition Corporation) (the “Company”) was incorporated on July 26, 1990 in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida as Marketing Educational Corp. On June 13, 2006, the Company was reincorporated by merger in the State of Nevada.

 

The Company was originally formed for the purpose of direct marketing of certain educational materials and photography packages. During 1991, the Company completed a public offering of 150,000 units of common stock, through a Registration Statement on Form S-18 (Registration No.33-37039-A).

 

The Company has had no operations since 1992 and is currently a “shell company” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) and Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The Company is defined as a shell company because it has no operations or assets.

 

On December 7, 2012, USA Zhimingde International Group Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Zhimingde Inc.”) purchased 1,687,502 shares of the Company’s common stock from Halter Financial Investments, L.P., Glenn A. Little and The Halter Group, Inc. pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase”). Following the Purchase, Zhimingde Inc. owned approximately 91% of the voting securities of the Company. The Purchase resulted in a change in control of the Company. Subsequently, the Company changed its name to USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation, effective on February 4, 2013.

 

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Accounting and Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company does not have any cash or cash equivalents.

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred income taxes for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences for those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income.  A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC Section 740-10, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance also prescribes direction on de-recognition, classification, and accounting for interest and payables in the financial statements. The Company classifies interest expense and any related penalties related to income tax uncertainties as a component of income tax expense. No interest or penalties have been recognized as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company does not expect any significant changes in unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date.

The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”).  Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of any dilutive shares outstanding during the period.  Potential dilutive shares are not included when the Company has a loss because their inclusion would be antidilutive. Accordingly, the number of weighted average shares outstanding, as well as the amount of net (loss) per share are presented for basic and diluted per share calculations for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, reflected in the accompanying statements of operation. There were no dilutive shares outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 - inputs based on prices or valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the fair value markets.

 

The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented at fair value on a recurring basis. Carrying values of non-derivative financial instruments, including accrued expenses, approximated its fair value due to the short maturity of these financial instruments. There were no changes in methods or assumptions during the periods presented.

3.RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

In April, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue with Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which is an amendment to ASU No. 2014-09 that clarifies the aspects of identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementing guidance, while retaining the related principles within those areas. The implementation guidelines follow ASU No. 2014-09.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Current  $   $

5.INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

 

At December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $364,000 of federal net operating losses that may be available to offset future taxable income. The Federal net operating loss carryover, if not utilized, will expire beginning in 2026. Through 2036, the amount and utilization of any future net operating loss carry-forwards may be subject to limitations set forth by the Internal Revenue Code. Based upon an analysis of the Company’s stock ownership activity through December 31, 2012, a change of ownership was deemed to have occurred in 2012. This change of ownership created an annual limitation of substantially all of the Company’s net operating losses which are available through 2031.

 

The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized. To the extent that realization is not likely, a valuation allowance is established. Based upon the Company’s losses since inception, management believes that it is more likely than not that future benefit of the deferred tax asset will not be realized principally due to the continuing losses from operations and the change of ownership limitations and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. The valuation allowance increased by $19,300 and $22,400 during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

The tax years ended December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015 remain open to examination by the taxing authorities.

 

6.Going concern

 

The Company has not generated any revenue, nor any significant operations during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company does not have any assets as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficiency and a stockholders’ deficit of $130,832. The Company continues to incur losses from operations and has incurred a net loss of approximately $46,000 and $53,000 during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s current business plan is to seek an acquisition or merger with a private operating company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully consummate an acquisition or merger with a private operating company or, that the Company will identify any debt or equity financing sources to finance a potential acquisition or merger. If unable to obtain financing, the Company may be unable to complete its business plan, and would, instead, delay all cash intensive activities. The Company will continue to be dependent on additional capital contributions from its major stockholder for cash flow, which may not be available. Without necessary cash flow, the Company may become dormant during the next twelve months, or until such time necessary funds could be raised.

6.Going concern (CONTINUED)

 

Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Item 9.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

Not Applicable

 

Item 9A.Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Our Chief Executive Officer and our only officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission) as of December 31, 2016. The evaluation revealed that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls, specifically:

 

There are no management controls, as a single person functions as sole officer and sole member of the Board of Directors.

 

Having only one individual responsible for accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system.

 

Most of our accounting functions are outsourced, which limits our ability to assure that our accounting policies are applied consistently.

 

Based on his evaluation, he concluded that the Company’s system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective as of December 31, 2016.

 

Changes in Internal Controls. There was no change in internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) identified in connection with the evaluation described in the preceding paragraph that occurred during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We have assessed the effectiveness of those internal controls as of December 31, 2016, using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) as a basis for our assessment.

 

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 and procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

19 
 

 

A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified three material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses consisted of:

 

a.       Inadequate staffing and supervision within the bookkeeping operations of our company. There is only one individual who is responsible for bookkeeping functions. This prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.

 

b.      Outsourcing the accounting operations of our company. Because there is only one person in our administration, we outsource most of the accounting functions of our Company to an independent accountant. This accountant is not directly supervised by the Company’s management. This is a material weakness because it could result in differences between the accounting policies adopted by our Board of Directors and the accounting practices applied by the accountant.

 

c.       Lack of independent control over related party transactions. Zhongquan Zou is the sole director and sole officer of USA Zhimingde International Group Corporation. From time to time Mr. Zou or one of his affiliates will make loans or capital contributions to finance the operations of the Company. The absence of other directors or officers to review these transactions is a weakness because it could lead to improper classification of such related party transactions.

 

Management does not believe that the current level of the Company’s operations warrants a remediation of the weaknesses identified in this assessment. However, because of the above conditions, management’s assessment is that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2016.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report from 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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
