Description of business and organization

Nature of operations

ADGS Advisory, Inc. (“the Company” or “ADGS”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in September 2007 under the name Life Nutrition Products, Inc. Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation filed with the State of Delaware and effective as of July 19, 2013, the Company changed its corporate name from “Life Nutrition Products, Inc.” to “ADGS Advisory, Inc.”.

On December 7, 2012, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Original Exchange Agreement”) with ADGS Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“ADGS Hong Kong”) and ADGS Advisory (Holding) Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“ADGS”). Pursuant to the Original Exchange Agreement, at the closing of the transaction contemplated thereunder (the “ADGS Transaction”), the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS, making ADGS a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Original Exchange Agreement (the Original Exchange Agreement, as amended is referred to herein as the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Almonds Kisses Limited (BVI), a British Virgin Islands company (“Almonds Kisses BVI”), from the eight shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI (the “Shareholders”), instead of the shares of ADGS, on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement. Almonds Kisses BVI is the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS. The Original Exchange Agreement incorrectly indicated that such owner was ADGS Holdings which error was corrected in the Amendment.

On April 12, 2013, the ADGS Transaction closed whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Almonds Kisses BVI pursuant to the Exchange Agreement in exchange for an aggregate of 20,155,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock which were issued to the eight former shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI. As a result, on April 12, 2013, Almonds Kisses BVI became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the former shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI became the Company’s controlling shareholders, and Almond Kisses BVI in turn owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS. Almond Kisses (BVI) also owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Vantage Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation. ADGS Hong Kong owns 80% of ADGS Tax Advisory Limited (“ADGS Tax”) which is a Hong Kong incorporated holding company, and ADGS Tax owns a 30% interest in Dynamic Golden Limited which is also a Hong Kong incorporated company and through Almonds Kisses owns its 30% effective on November 19, 2013.

The Company also acquired a property holding company, Motion Tech Development Limited, incorporated in British Virgin Islands. The transfer of shares was completed in August 29, 2013 and it is now 100% owned by Almond Kisses.

In October 20, 2013, the Company further acquired a Hong Kong incorporated company, T H Strategic Management Limited for purchase consideration of approximately $516,000 (HK$4,000,000) and it is now 100% owned by Almonds Kisses. T H Strategic Management Limited is engaged in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services.

Description of business and organization (…/Cont’d)
 
ADGS Advisory, Inc. is a holding company and, through its subsidiaries and group company, engages in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial, consultancy services and consultancy service for slope inspection. The Company together with its consolidated subsidiaries and its equity-method investment, are collectively referred to as the “Group”.

Reorganization
Almond Kisses was incorporated on March 1, 2011 as a limited liability company in British Virgin Island. ADGS Advisory Limited (“ADGS) and its subsidiary and equity-method investment, were limited companies incorporated in Hong Kong had been wholly owned by the same group of shareholders until being acquired by Almonds Kisses pursuant to a reorganization (“Reorganization”) to prepare for the listing of the Company’s shares on a stock exchange.

Foreign currency translation

The Group uses United States dollars (“U.S. Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes. The subsidiaries within the Company maintain their books and records in their respective functional currency, Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”), being the lawful currency in Hong Kong. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated from H.K. Dollars into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Items on the statements of income and comprehensive income and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income included in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheets. The exchange rates used to translate amounts in HKD into U.S. Dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Revenue recognition (…/Cont’d)

 
(iv)  
The Company recognizes the management fee income when service is provided. Services include providing administration support service or accounting service to companies.

Direct cost of revenue

Direct costs of revenues generated from providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services consists primarily of billable employee compensation and related payroll benefits, the cost of consultants assigned to revenue generating activities and direct expenses billable to clients. Direct cost of revenues does not include an allocation of overhead costs.

Direct costs from providing consultancy service for slope inspections under fixed price contracts are recognized, as the related contact costs are incurred.

Cash

Cash represents cash in banks and cash on hand.

The Group considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Substantially all of the cash deposits of the Group are held with financial institutions located in the Hong Kong, PRC. Management believes these financial institutions are of high credit quality. The group held no cash equivalents at February 28, 2014 and August 31, 2013.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents cash in banks were restricted and deposited in certain banks as security for installment loans payable to the banks.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and discounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Group’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Group’s existing accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions. The Group historically has been able to collect all of its receivable balances.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Group does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure to its customers.

Deferred revenue

 
The Company entered into a contract with a third party to provide corporate advisory and consulting services. The agreement has a fixed term of four years, and is renewable upon maturity. These fees are deferred and are amortized to income as earned over the term of the agreement. Deferred revenue that will be recognized in next fiscal year is classified within current liabilities.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred; major renewals and improvements that extend the lives or increase the capacity of plant assets are capitalized.

When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the reporting period of disposition.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets after taking into account their respective estimated residual value.

The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
 
   
 Estimated Life
Investment property
 
Over the unexpired term of the lease
Leasehold improvement
 
5 years
Furniture and fixtures
 
5 years
Office equipment
 
5 years
Motor vehicles
 
5 years

Equity-method investment

Affiliated companies, in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, are accounted for equity-method investment. Equity-method investment adjustments include the Company’s proportionate share of investee income or loss, gains or losses resulting from investee capital transactions, adjustments to recognize certain differences between the Company’s carrying value and the Company’s equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment, impairments, and other adjustments required by the equity method. Gain or losses are realized when such investments are sold.

Non-controlling interest

Non-controlling interests represents the 20% interest in ADGS Tax not owned by Almonds Kisses.

Purchased intangible assets

The Group assesses the useful lives and possible impairment of existing recognized intangible assets when an event occurs that may trigger such a review. Factors considered important which could trigger a review include:
 
significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;
disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;
significant negative industry or economic trends;
 
The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.

Purchased goodwill

All business combinations are accounted for by applying the purchase method. Goodwill represents the difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. Identifiable intangibles are those which can be sold separately or which arise from legal rights regardless of whether those rights are separable.

Positive goodwill arising on acquisitions is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment.

Decreases in goodwill resulting from the non-payment of contingent consideration are recognized in the period when non-payment occurs.

Negative goodwill arising on an acquisition is recognized directly in profit or loss.

The Group assesses the useful lives and possible impairment of existing goodwill when an event occurs that may trigger such a review. Factors considered important which could trigger a review include:

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;
disposition of a significant portion of business;
significant negative industry or economic trends;

Goodwill is recorded as an indefinite-lived asset and is not amortized but tested for impairment on an accrual basis or when indications of impairment exist.

Assets under capital lease

Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease.

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income includes net income and also considers the effect of other changes to stockholders' equity that are not included in the determination of net income, but rather are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. The Group reports foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments (those which are considered temporary) as components of comprehensive income.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the fiscal years. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of the common stock plus any effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the if-converted method.

Income taxes

The Group accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes". Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be effective when the differences are expected to reverse.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Group records uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax positions will not be sustained upon examination by the respective tax authority.

The Group recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. For the six months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.

Employee benefits

 
i)  
Salaries, wages, annual bonuses, paid annual leave and staff welfare are accrued in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group. Where payment or settlement is deferred and the effect would be material, these amounts are stated at their present values.

 
ii) 
Contributions to appropriate local contribution retirement schemes pursuant to the relevant labor rules and regulations in Hong Kong which are charged to the cost of sales and general and administrative expenses in the statement of operation as and when the related employee service is provided. The Group incurred $31,859 and $19,659 for the three months period ended February 28, 2014 and 2013; $50,551 and $37,218 for the six months period ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 respectively.

Fair value measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures” defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Group. Unobservable inputs reflect the Group’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

 
Level 1 -
Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

 
Level 2 -
Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.

 
Level 3 -
Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 
The Group’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, bank loans, and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of the Group's cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Group believes that the carrying amounts of all of the Group's other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

(the "Company") entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated October 20, 2013 which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 23, 2013. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase all shares of T H Strategic Management Limited (“T H Strategic”), a Hong Kong, People’s Republic of China incorporated company (the "Acquisition") for purchase consideration of approximately $516,000 (HK$4 million). T H Strategic Management Limited is engaged in providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services.
 
 
In consideration for acquisition of the issued and outstanding shares of TH Strategic, Almonds Kisses has agreed to pay the seller the sum of about $516,000 (HK$4 million), payable in four equal monthly installments of about $129,000 (HK$1 million) each. Almonds Kisses has fully paid the consideration of acquisition before the end of February 2014.
 
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the Merger:

Critical Accounting Policies

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures for a fair presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2013, as filed in Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2013.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries as disclosed in note 1.  All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

As both the Company and its subsidiaries, ADGS and ADGS Tax are under common control, the financial statements of the Company have been presented as if the receipt of assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries at their net carrying amount been entered into as of March 1, 2011 in accordance with ASC 805-50-15-6. Accordingly, financial information related to periods prior to the assets and liabilities are that of the Company’s operating subsidiaries.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative period amounts to conform with that of the current period.

Going concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis.   Although the Company has a working capital surplus of $255,542 at February 28, 2014, management plans to continue its efforts to raise funds through debt or equity in the near future and increase its profitability to sustain its operations.

Revenue recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily from providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial, consultancy services, consultancy service for slope inspection and rental income.

(i)           Revenue generates from providing accounting, taxation, company secretarial and consultancy services is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the related services are provided and when the collection is probable, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Group generates its revenues from providing professional services under fixed-fee billing arrangements.
 
 
4

 

In fixed-fee billing arrangements, the Company agrees to a pre-established fee in exchange for a pre-determined set of professional services. Generally, the client agrees to pay a fixed-fee in monthly installments over the specified contract term. These contracts are for varying periods and generally permit the client to cancel the contract before the end of the term.

(ii)           Consultancy service for slope inspection represents under fixed price contract is recognized when the related services are provided and when the collection is probable, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

(iii)           Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(iv)           The Company recognizes the management fee income when service is provided. Services include providing administration support service or accounting service to companies.
 
Purchased intangible assets and goodwill

The Company assesses the useful lives and possible impairment of existing recognized intangible assets when an event occurs that may trigger such a review. Factors considered important which could trigger a review include:
 
- significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
- significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
- identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;
- disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;
- significant negative industry or economic trends;
 
The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes”. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be effective when the differences are expected to reverse.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax positions will not be sustained upon examination by the respective tax authority.

The Company recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. For the six months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.

Economic and political risks

The major operations of the Company are conducted in Hong Kong, the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in Hong Kong, the PRC, as well as the general state of Hong Kong’s economy may influence the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the Company.
 
Among other risks, the Company's operations are subject to the risks of restrictions on: changing taxation policies; and political conditions and governmental regulations.

Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will cause a material impact on its financial condition or the result of its operation.

Trends and Uncertainties

Insofar that our revenues are mainly derived from providing professional services to our clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements, the number of clients we have at any given time and the fees billed are the Company’s key uncertainties. The recent growth in revenues was primarily due to the acquisition of customer lists and client bases in 2011 and, therefore, we cannot be certain that this growth represents a trend which will continue although we have recently made acquisitions and we plan to make additional acquisitions in the upcoming years and we are regularly exploring such opportunities which may benefit our business and increase our revenues. In the future, we expect that we will seek to purchase other customer lists and client bases as part of our overall growth strategy, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to do any of the foregoing on terms which will be acceptable to us.

Other key uncertainties include our high leverage and highly variable interest expense. To date, we have significantly relied upon debt financings to fund our operations. At February 28, 2014 (unaudited) and August 31, 2013 (audited), we had outstanding bank loans (excluding bank overdrafts) in the principal amount of $2,295,133 and $2,286,785, respectively. We also had bank overdrafts of $777,837 as of February 28, 2014 compared with $744,077 as of August 31, 2013. Interest expense from bank loans and overdrafts (excluding capital lease interest) for the six months ended February 28, 2014 was $52,895 and for the six months ended February 28, 2013 was $61,879. Such loans are primarily term loans with maturity dates ranging from February 2014 to October 2037. Approximately $0.5 million of the bank loans are to be repaid over the next five years. While we have begun to achieve profitable operations during fiscal 2013, there can be no assurance that such profitability will continue or that revenues from our operations will be able to service these debt obligations. See “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this report for further discussion of these uncertainties and others.
 
In addition to the foregoing, as of February 28, 2014, advances to a related party total $31,050. The advances to the related party represent unsecured, non-interesting bearing loans without fixed repayment terms. Although most of such advances have been repaid to the Company, such advances may have detrimentally affected our ability to do business insofar that such advances represented a major portion of the Company’s available cash. These advances were provided as a special accommodation to such related party whose personal properties were provided as collateral for bank loans obtained by the Company. Although there is no binding obligation on the part of the shareholder to repay such loans, such shareholder previously informally agreed to repay such amounts on or before November 1, 2013 but has since revised such date to May 31, 2014. The foregoing represents another key uncertainty since no assurance can be made that such advances will be repaid on or before May 31, 2014 or at all. In addition, although such advances are no longer being made to such shareholder, such advances have not generated income to the Company and may have detrimentally affected our ability to grow the business for the benefit of all of the shareholders.

Principal Components of Our Income Statement

Revenue

Our revenue is derived from providing professional services to our clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements. The most significant factors that affect our revenue are number of clients and our fees billed. In fixed-fee billing arrangements, we agree to a pre-established fee in exchange for a pre-determined set of professional services. Generally, our client agrees to pay a fixed-fee every month over the specified contract term. These contracts are for varying periods and generally permit the client to cancel the contract before the end of the term.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of direct cost of revenue, general and administrative expenses.

Direct cost of revenue

Our direct cost of revenue primarily consists of commission paid, consultant fees, legal and professional fees, management fees, salaries, secretarial fees and sub-contractor fees.

Revenue

For the Six Months Ended February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013

Our business for the six months ended February 28, 2014 expanded rapidly. We recorded revenue of $2.6 million for the six months ended February 28, 2014, representing an increase of $0.7 million as compared to the results of $1.9 million for the same period ended February 28, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the increase of revenue stream in corporate restructuring, insolvency services and multi-disciplinary advisory services and a steady growth in accounting and corporate services.

For the Three Months Ended February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013

We recorded revenue of $1.4 million for the three months ended February 28, 2014, representing an increase of $0.1 million as compared to $1.3 million for the same period ended February 28, 2013.

The significant increase in general and administrative expenses is mainly caused by the increase of revenue stream in our services which led to more general and administrative expenses incurred.

Other expense

Other expense represents the interest expense for the bank loans, bank overdrafts, capital lease and others of $26,913 for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and $55,197 for the six months ended February 28, 2014 and $33,348 for the three months ended February 28, 2013 and $62,775 for the six months ended February 28, 2013.

Other comprehensive income/(loss)

Other comprehensive income/(loss) represents the foreign currency translation adjustment of $4,652 loss for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and $1,270 for the six months ended February 28, 2014 and $67 loss for the three months ended February 28, 2013 and $115 loss for the six months ended February 28, 2013.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of February 28, 2014, we had cash on hand of $1,112,662, which represented an increase of $948,348 from $164,314 as of August 31, 2013, total current assets of $1,923,167, and total current liabilities of $1,667,625. Working capital at February 28, 2014 was $255,542 and the ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.15 to 1 as of February 28, 2014.

As of February 28, 2014 we had long term debt of $3,419,134, which represented an decrease of $34,478 from $3,453,612 as of August 31, 2013; total assets of $5,738,590 as of February 28, 2014 representing an increase of $972,713 from $4,765,877 as of August 31, 2013. The ratio of long term debts to total assets was 0.6 to 1 as of February 28, 2014.

These conditions raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations, to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our management plans to continue its efforts to raise funds through debt or equity, improve its profitability in the near future to sustain its operations.

The increase was mainly due to a net profit of $740,343, plus other receivables of $93,945, prepaid expenses of $64,051 and income tax payable of $110,440, offset by accounts receivable of $(49,038), utility and other deposits of $(32,315), accrued liabilities of $(20,677), and accrued expenses for the Company and deferred revenue of $(72,534) due to the recognition of consultancy services provided to a third party with a fixed fee and term of four years.

We have not entered into any financial guarantees or commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us.

We may be exposed to interest rate risk in relation to the bank loans we maintain. The interest rate risk is managed by the Directors of the Company on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of limiting the extent to which interest expense could be affected by adverse movement in interest rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s post-tax profit for the six months ended February 28, 2014 would increase/decrease by $3,843 as compared with the combined post-tax profit for the six months ended February 28, 2013 while the Company’s post-tax profit for the three months ended February 28, 2014 would increase/decrease by $230 as compared with the combined post-tax profit for the three months ended February 28, 2013.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
 
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of February 28, 2014, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
