NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 (“Annual Report”) of Fuse Group Holding Inc. (together with our direct or indirect subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company”) includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Other than statements of historical fact, all statements made in this Annual Report are forward-looking, including, but not limited to (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategies, (c) anticipated trends in our industry, (d) our future financing plans and (e) our anticipated needs for working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict, which could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from our expectations, forecasts and assumptions. The following important factors, among others, could affect our future results and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements:

●	the uncertainty of profitability based upon our history of losses;
●	risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms to continue as going concern;
●	risks related to our international operations and currency exchange fluctuations; and
●	other risks and uncertainties related to our business plan and business strategy.

Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report may turn out to be inaccurate. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks or uncertainties. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Actual future results may vary materially as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Annual Report. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Our financial statements are stated in United States dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. All references to “common stock” refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changed circumstances or the occurrence of unanticipated events.

PART I

ITEM 1 – BUSINESS

Overview and History

Fuse Group Holding Inc. (the “Company” or “Fuse Group” or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 24, 2013. Fuse Group currently explores opportunities in mining. On December 6, 2016, the Company incorporated Fuse Processing, Inc. (“Processing”) in the State of California. Processing seeks business opportunities in mining and is currently investigating potential mining targets in Asia and North America. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Processing. In March 2017, Processing acquired 100% ownership of Fuse Trading Limited (“Trading”) for HKD1 ($0.13). Trading had no operations prior to the acquisition by Processing, and Trading expects to be engaged in mining-related businesses. On May 3, 2018, the Company incorporated Fuse Technology Inc. (“Technology”) in the State of Nevada. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Technology. Technology was mainly engaged in IMETAL system development. The Company originally planned to operate IMETAL as a platform to facilitate investment and trade in raw metals, find specialized minerals, exploit these opportunities and issue tokens to be used on the platform, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Due to the recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading, management discussed with the designer of the platform its function and compliance issues and believed the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected. On December 23, 2019, the Board decided to terminate the IMETAL project.

Fuse Group and Processing provide consulting services to mining industry clients to find acquisition targets within the parameters set by the clients, when the mine owner is considering selling its mining rights. The services of Fuse Group and Processing include due diligence on the potential mine seller and the mine, such as ownership of the mine and whether the mine meets all operation requirements and/or is currently in operation.

On January 4, 2017, Processing entered into a Consulting and Strategist Agreement with a consulting company for a six-month term. On July 3, 2017, the Company and the consulting company extended the Consulting and Strategist Agreement until January 3, 2018 at no additional cost, and the Agreement was subsequently extended to July 3, 2018. The consultant provides Processing with market research findings, exploration and advice on business development opportunities in certain countries, and other general business advisory services. Processing paid a deposit of $1,325,000 for the consulting fee, of which, $325,000 was expensed as a consulting fee based on the agreement, and the remaining $1,000,000 of which would have been refunded to the Company if the Company had not made an investment and/or entered into a business relationship in Mexico. The consulting company found acquisition targets for the Company, and on June 22, 2018, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with a seller for the purchase of five mines located in different areas of Mexico for $1,000,000. Upon the execution of the MOU, the Company acquired the exclusive right to purchase the mines from the seller until September 30, 2018. The parties entered into an oral agreement pursuant to which the Company will pay the $1,000,000 purchase price upon receiving approvals from the Mexican government allowing for the transfer of the mining concession. The transfer request was submitted to, and is being processed by, the Mexican government, but that processing was delayed due to elections and new administration in Mexico, the Company was not able to provide an estimated time for the approval at this report date.

On April 29, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change its name from Fuse Enterprises Inc. to Fuse Group Holding Inc. Also on April 29, 2019, stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock approved the Amendment. The Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State for the State of Nevada on April 30, 2019, and became effective on May 13, 2019. On May 29, 2019, the Company changed its trading symbol on OTC Markets from FNST to FUST.

Research and Development Activities

Other than time spent researching our proposed business, we have not spent any funds on research and development activities to date. We do not currently plan to spend any funds on research and development activities in the near future.

We are not aware of any environmental laws that have been enacted, nor are we aware of any such laws contemplated for the future, that affect our current operations.

Table of Contents

Employees

As of the date of this Annual Report we have four employees, all of which are full-time. Our officers and directors are responsible for planning, developing and operational duties, and will continue to do so throughout the early stages of our growth.

Reports to Securities Holders

We provide an annual report that includes audited financial information to our shareholders. We will make our financial information equally available to any interested parties or investors through compliance with the disclosure rules for a small business issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We are subject to disclosure filing requirements including filing Form 10-K annually and Form 10-Q quarterly. In addition, we will file Forms 8-K from time to time as required. We do not intend to voluntarily file the above reports if our obligation to file such reports is suspended under the Exchange Act. The public may read and copy any materials that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC” or “Commission”), at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549.

The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company’s common stock involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the following risk factors, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed herein, and in other documents that the Company subsequently files with the SEC, that update, supplement or supersede such information for which documents are incorporated by reference into this Report. Additional risks not presently known to the Company, or which the Company considers immaterial based on information currently available, may also materially adversely affect the Company’s business. If any of the events anticipated by the risks described herein occur, the Company’s business, cash flow, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected, which could result in a decline in the market price of the Company’s common stock, causing you to lose all or part of your investment.

We are an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act. We cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our shares of common stock less attractive to investors.

We are and will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (a) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed $1.07 billion (subject to adjustment for inflation), (b) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering, (c) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities, or (d) the date on which Enterprises is deemed a “large accelerated filer” (with at least $700 million in public float) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” as described in further detail in the risk factors below. We cannot predict if investors will find our shares of common stock less attractive because the Company will rely on some or all of these exemptions. If some investors find our shares of common stock to be less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for its shares of common stock and its stock price may be more volatile.

If we avail ourselves of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements, such reduced disclosure may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate us and may result in less investor confidence.

Table of Contents

The recently enacted JOBS Act is intended to reduce the regulatory burden on “emerging growth companies”. We meet the definition of an “emerging growth company” and so long as we qualify as an “emerging growth company,” we will not be required to:

● have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

● comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);

● submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and

● disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can use the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. However, we have chosen to “opt out” of such extended transition period, and as a result, the Company will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that its decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

Notwithstanding the above, we are also currently a “smaller reporting company”, meaning we are not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer, or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company and have a public float of less than $250 million and annual revenues of less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. In the event we are still considered a “smaller reporting company”, at such time as we cease being an “emerging growth company”, we will be required to provide additional disclosure in our SEC filings. However, similar to “emerging growth companies”, “smaller reporting companies” are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings; are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting; and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, only being required to provide two years of audited financial statements in annual reports.

Decreased disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as an “emerging growth company” or “smaller reporting company” may make it harder for investors to analyze the Company’s results of operations and financial prospects.

We lack an operating history. There is no assurance our future operations will result in profitable revenues. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably, our business will fail.

We were incorporated on December 24, 2013, and as of September 30, 2019, we had accumulated a deficit of $5,914,393. We have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Based upon current plans, we expect to continue generating revenues. However, our revenues may not be sufficient to cover our operating costs. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in generating significant revenues in the future. Failure to achieve a sustainable sales level will cause us to go out of business.

Our success depends substantially on the continued retention of certain key personnel and our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel in the future to support our growth.

If one or more of our senior executives or other key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, our business may be disrupted and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. We are dependent upon Mr. Umesh Patel, our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and director; and Mr. Michael Viotto, our chief financial officer (“CFO”) and director. The loss of the services of Messrs. Patel or Viotto for any reason could significantly adversely impact our business and results of operations. Competition for senior management in the U.S. is intense and the pool of qualified candidates is very limited. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that the services of our senior executives and other key personnel will continue to be available to us, or that we will be able to find a suitable replacement for them if they were to leave.

Table of Contents

We face intense competition in our industry. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business will be seriously harmed.

The market for online marketing services is highly competitive and has low barriers to entry. Our competitors vary in size and in the variety of services they offer. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, and an established client base. These competitors may be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging online marketing technologies and changes in customer requirements. They may also be able to devote greater resources to the promotion and sales of their services than we can, or may adopt more aggressive pricing policies. If we fail to compete successfully against our competitors, our revenue could decline and our business could be harmed.

We don’t have an audit committee. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

Members of our Board of Directors (“BOD”) do not have significant experience with U.S. GAAP and the related internal control procedures required of U.S. public companies. Management determined our internal audit function is also deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform internal audits. Finally, we have not established an Audit Committee of our BOD.

We are a development stage company with limited resources. Therefore, we cannot assure investors that we will be able to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. For these reasons, we are considering the costs and benefits associated with improving and documenting our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures, which includes (i) hiring additional personnel with sufficient U.S. GAAP experience and (ii) implementing ongoing training in U.S. GAAP requirements for our CFO and accounting and other finance personnel. If the result of these efforts are not successful, or if material weaknesses are identified in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to report favorably as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and/or our disclosure controls and procedures, and we could be required to further implement expensive and time-consuming remedial measures and potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports which could have an adverse effect on our stock price and potentially subject us to litigation.

We do not have a majority of independent directors on our Board and the Company has not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which shareholders may have more limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.

Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or the NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, audit committee oversight, and the adoption of a code of ethics. We have not yet adopted any of these other corporate governance measures and since our securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so.

Our BOD is comprised of two individuals, both of whom are also our executive officers. As a result, we do not have independent directors on our BOD.

We have not adopted corporate governance measures such as an audit or other independent committee of our Board, as we presently do not have independent directors on our Board. If we expand our Board membership in future periods to include additional independent directors, we may seek to establish an audit and other committees of our Board. It is possible that if our BOD included independent directors and if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, shareholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurance that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct.

Table of Contents

For example, at present in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages or employment contracts to our senior officers are made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. However, as a general rule, the Board, in making its decisions, determines first that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us that those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. The company executes the transaction between executive officers and the company once it was approved by the BOD.

Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

Landbond Home Limited, our largest shareholder, will have control over key decision making as a result of its control of a substantial amount of our voting stock.

As of December 20, 2019, Landbond Home Limited (“Landbond”), and its sole director, Mr. Yong Zhang, directly and indirectly owned 27,500,000 shares, or 42.45%, of our then outstanding common stock. Landbond’s beneficial ownership of 42.45% of our issued and outstanding common stock gives it the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval in the future, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of their respective assets. This concentrated control could delay, defer, or prevent a change of control, merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of their respective assets that other shareholders support, or conversely this concentrated control could result in the consummation of such a transaction that other shareholders do not support. This concentrated control could also discourage a potential investor from acquiring our common stock, due to the limited voting power of such shares. As a shareholder, even a controlling shareholder, Landbond is entitled to vote its shares in its own interests, which may not always be in the interests of our shareholders generally.

The Company is subject to the 15(d) reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which does not require a company to file all the same reports and information as fully reporting company.

Pursuant to Section 15(d), we are required to file periodic reports with the SEC, such as annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K. That filing obligation will generally apply even if our reporting obligations have been automatically under section 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the due date for our Form 10-K.

After that fiscal year and provided the Company has fewer than 300 shareholders, the Company is not required to file these reports. If the reports are not filed, the investors will have reduced visibility as to the Company and its financial condition. In addition, as a filer subject to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company is not required to prepare proxy or information statements; our common stock will not be subject to the protection of the going private regulations; the company will be subject to only limited portions of the tender offer rules; our officers, directors, and more than ten percent shareholders are not required to file beneficial ownership reports about their holdings in our company; that these persons will not be subject to the short-swing profit recovery provisions of the Exchange Act; and that more than five percent holders of classes of your equity securities will not be required to report information about their ownership positions in the securities.

The relative lack of significant public company experience of our management team may put us at a competitive disadvantage.

Our management team lacks public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as those imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, (“Sarbanes-Oxley”). Our senior management does not have significant experience managing a publicly traded company. Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management may be unable to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner or that adequately respond to the increased legal, regulatory and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly traded company. Our failure to comply with all applicable requirements could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties, distract our management from attending to the management and growth of our business, result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports and have an adverse effect on our business and stock price.

Table of Contents

If our costs and demands upon management increase disproportionately to the growth of our business and revenue as a result of complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies, our operating results could be harmed.

As a public company, we do and will continue to incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting requirements. We also have incurred and will incur costs associated with current corporate governance requirements, including requirements under Section 404 and other provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley, as well as rules implemented by the SEC and the stock exchange on which our common stock is traded. The expenses incurred by public companies for reporting and corporate governance purposes have increased dramatically over the past several years. These rules and regulations increased our legal and financial compliance costs substantially and make some activities more time consuming and costly. If our costs and demands upon management increase disproportionately to the growth of our business and revenue, our operating results could be harmed.

We do not intend to pay dividends and there may be fewer ways in which you can make a gain on any investment in Fuse Group.

We have never paid any cash dividends and currently do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent we require additional funding currently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may likely prohibit the payment of a dividend. Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in Fuse Group will need to come through appreciation of the stock’s price.

We may engage in future acquisitions involving significant expenditures of cash, the incurrence of debt or the issuance of stock, all of which could have a materially adverse effect on our operating results.

As part of our business strategy, we review acquisition and strategic investment prospects that we believe would offer strategic growth opportunities. From time to time, we review investments in new businesses and we expect to make investments in, and to acquire, businesses, products or technologies in the future. In the event of future acquisitions, we may expend significant cash, incur substantial debt and/or issue equity securities and dilute the percentage ownership of current shareholders, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and the price of our common stock. We cannot guarantee we will be able to successfully integrate any businesses, products, technologies or personnel that we may acquire in the future, and our failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

There is a very limited public market for our common stock and therefore, our investors may not be able to sell their shares.

Our common stock is listed on the over-the-counter exchange, and is thinly traded. As a result, shareholders may be unable to liquidate their investments, or may encounter considerable delay in selling shares of our common stock. If an active trading market does develop, the market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile due to, among other things, the nature of our business and because we are a new public company with a limited operating history. Further, even if a public market develops, the volume of trading in our common stock will presumably be limited and likely be dominated by a few individual shareholders. The limited volume, if any, will make the price of our common stock subject to manipulation by one or more shareholders and will significantly limit the number of shares that one can purchase or sell in a short period of time. The market price of our common stock may also fluctuate significantly in response to the following factors, most of which are beyond our control:

- variations in our quarterly operating results;

- changes in general economic conditions;

- price competition or pricing changes by us or our competitors;

- new services offerings or other actions by our competitors;

- loss of a major customer, partner or joint venture participant; and

- the addition or loss of key managerial and collaborative personnel.

The equity markets have, on occasion, experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices for many companies’ securities and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies.

Table of Contents

Any such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. As a result, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares, or may be forced to sell them at a loss.

Our common stock was accepted for quotation on the OTCQB, as a result, the application of the “Penny Stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares. The SEC has Rule 3A51-1, which establishes the definition of a “Penny Stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has market price of less than $5.00 per share or within an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15G-9 require:

- that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and

- the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the

identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

- obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

- make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the

person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of

transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

- sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

- that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Item 2. PROPERTIES

We lease office space in Arcadia, California for monthly rent of approximately $2,200 pursuant to a lease agreement with a term from December 31, 2018 to November 30, 2021.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We may from time to time be party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. As we grow and gain prominence in the marketplace we may become party to an increasing number of litigation matters and claims. The outcome of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, and the resolution of these matters could materially affect our future results of operations, cash flows or financial position. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings.

Item 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

ITEM 7 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

DISCLAIMER REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly under the heading “Risk Factors.”

Overview

Fuse Group Holding Inc. (the “Company” or “Fuse Group” or “we”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 24, 2013. Fuse Group currently explores opportunities in mining. On December 6, 2016, the Company incorporated Fuse Processing, Inc. (“Processing”) in the State of California. Processing seeks business opportunities in mining and is currently investigating potential mining targets in Asia and North America. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Processing. In March 2017, Processing acquired 100% ownership of Fuse Trading Limited (“Trading”) for HKD1 ($0.13). Trading had no operations prior to the acquisition by Processing, and Trading expects to be engaged in mining-related businesses. On May 3, 2018, the Company incorporated Fuse Technology Inc. (“Technology”) in the State of Nevada. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Technology. Technology was mainly engaged in IMETAL system development. The Company originally planned to operate IMETAL as a platform to facilitate investment and trade in raw metals, find specialized minerals, exploit these opportunities and issue tokens to be used on the platform, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Due to the recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading, management discussed with the designer of the platform on its function and compliance issues and believed the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected, on December 23, 2019, the Board decided to terminate the IMETAL project.

On January 4, 2017, Processing entered into a Consulting and Strategist Agreement with a consulting company for a six-month term. On July 3, 2017, the Company and the consulting company extended the Consulting and Strategist Agreement until January 3, 2018 at no additional cost, and the Agreement was subsequently extended to July 3, 2018. The consultant provides Processing with market research findings, exploration and advise on business development opportunities in certain countries, and other general business advisory services. Processing paid a deposit of $1,325,000 for the consulting fee, of which, $325,000 was expensed as a consulting fee based on the agreement, and the remaining $1,000,000 of which would have been refunded to the Company if the Company had not made an investment and/or entered into a business relationship in Mexico. The consulting company found acquisition targets for the Company, and on June 22, 2018, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with a seller for the purchase of five mines located in different areas of Mexico for $1,000,000. Upon the execution of the MOU, the Company acquired the exclusive right to purchase the mines from the seller until September 30, 2018. The parties entered into an oral agreement pursuant to which the Company will pay the $1,000,000 purchase price upon receiving approvals from the Mexican government allowing for the transfer of the mining concession. The transfer request was submitted to, and is being processed by, the Mexican government, but that processing was delayed due to elections and new administration in Mexico, the Company was not able to provide an estimate time for the approval at this report date.

On April 29, 2019, the Board of Directors (“BOD”) of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change its name from Fuse Enterprises Inc. to Fuse Group Holding Inc. Also on April 29, 2019, stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock approved the Amendment. The Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State for the State of Nevada on April 30, 2019, and became effective on May 13, 2019. On May 29, 2019, the Company changed its trading symbol on OTC Markets from FNST to FUST.

Results of operations for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Revenue and Cost of Revenue

We have historically generated revenue from sales of our marketing and web development services directly to small and medium-sized businesses. We have acquired customers through direct telemarketing and referrals. We currently seek business opportunities in mining and investigate potential mining targets in Asia and North America. In addition to our own investment in mining businesses, we provide consulting services to clients which are mining business investors with potential mine acquisition targets within the specific parameters set by those clients, where the mine owner is considering selling its mining rights. Our services include due diligence on the potential mine seller and the mine, such as ownership of the mine and whether the mine meets all operation requirements and/or is currently in operation.

Currently we have provided three potential mine acquisition opportunities to clients, with one mine located in Asia and two mines located in North America. For the year ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded revenue of $1,216,000 for the services provided. Our revenue for the year ended September 30, 2018 was $0. Our cost of revenues for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $277,415 and $0, respectively, mainly for the management’s travel expenses to visit these mines and consulting expenses paid for mine expertise during the mine due diligence period, resulting in a gross profit of $938,585 and $0 for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Costs and Expenses

The major components of our expenses for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are outlined in the table below:

	2019		2018		Increase (Decrease)

General and administrative	$	450,936	$	632,647	$	(182,251	)
Software development costs		-		1,500,000		(1,500,000	)
Consulting fees		565,952		1,968,923		(1,402,971	)
Total operating expenses	$	1,016,348	$	4,101,570	$	(3,085,222	)

The decrease in our operating costs for the year ended September 30, 2019, compared to the year ended September 30, 2018, was due to a decrease in consulting fees of $1,402,971 and decreased software development of $1,500,000. During the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had a few outstanding consulting agreements for advisory services on business development strategy in the Far East, including in Hong Kong and Russia, and acquisition opportunities in Mexico and North America. Some of the consulting agreements entered in prior periods expired during the year ended September 30, 2019.

The Company also had a consulting agreement for developing software programs to allow the Company to operate a platform called IMETAL for investment and trade in raw metals, find specialized minerals, exploit these opportunities and issue tokens to be used on the platform, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Due to the recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading, and the management discussed with the designer of the platform on its function and compliance issues and believed the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected, the BOD of the Company decided to terminate the IMETAL project. For the year ended September 30, 2018, the Company paid $1.5 million, which was recorded as software development costs. The Company did not pay anything for the year ended September 30, 2019.

Non-operating expenses, net

Net non-operating expense was $1,093 for the year ended September 30, 2019, compared to $117,550 for the year ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in non-operating expense was mainly due to a decrease in interest expense by $157,433 resulting from repayment of the loan through issuance of shares in June 2018, which was partly offset by decreased interest income by $41,400.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The table below provides selected working capital information as of September 30, 2019 and 2018:

	2019			2018

Total current assets	$	102,205		$	178,627
Total current liabilities		(10,675	)		(9,633	)
Working capital	$	91,530		$	168,994

Liquidity

During the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company reported net loss of $79,656 and $4,219,920, respectively.

If we are not successful in transitioning into the mining business and establishing profitability and positive cash flow, additional capital may be required to maintain ongoing operations. We have explored and continue to explore options to provide additional financing to fund future operations as well as other possible courses of action. Such actions may include, but are not limited to, securing lines of credit, sales of debt or equity securities (which may result in dilution to existing shareholders), loans and cash advances from other third parties or banks, and other similar actions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding (if needed), on acceptable terms or at all, through a sale of our common stock, loans from financial institutions, or other third parties, or any of the actions discussed above. If we cannot sustain profitable operations, and additional capital is unavailable, lack of liquidity could have a material adverse effect on our business viability, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Cash Flows

The table below, for the period indicated, provides selected cash flow information for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

	2019			2018

Net cash used in operating activities	$	(1,159	)	$	(4,240,729	)
Net cash provided by investing activities		-			3,925,000
Net decrease in cash	$	(1,159	)	$	(315,729	)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our cash used in operating activities for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $1,159 and $4,240,729, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was mainly due to decreased net loss by $4,140,264 resulting from increased revenue of $1,216,000 from the Company’s provision of mine scouting services to clients, and decreased prepaid consulting expense by $124,964 for the year ended September 30, 2019.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Our cash provided by investing activities for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0 and $3,925,000, respectively. The cash inflow for year ended September 30, 2018 was from the collection of outstanding notes receivable of $3,925,000.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any financing activities.

ITEM 8 – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The information called for by this item is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements (“CFS”) beginning on page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 9 – CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On July 15, 2019, the BOD of Fuse Group Holding Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of MJF and Associates, APC (“MJF”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, effective immediately.

MJF’s audit reports on the Company’s CFS as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the audit reports on the CFS of the Company for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and in the subsequent interim period through July 14, 2019, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and MJF on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MJF, would have caused MJF to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except as noted in the following paragraph:

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and through the interim period ended July 14, 2019, there were the following “reportable events” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K). As disclosed in Part I, Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s management determined the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of the end of such period due to the existence of material weaknesses related to the following:

1. We do not have an Audit Committee. While we are not legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is of the utmost importance for entity-level control over the Company’s financial statements. Currently, the BOD acts in the capacity of an audit committee.

2. We did not implement appropriate information technology controls. As of March 31, 2019, the Company was retaining copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.

3. We currently lack sufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements.

These material weaknesses were not remediated as of the date of the dismissal of MJF.

On July 15, 2019, the Company’s BOD approved the engagement of Prager Metis CPAs, LLP ("Prager Metis"), as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of July 15, 2019. The BOD also approved Prager Metis to act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019.

In deciding to approve and ratify the engagement of Prager Metis, the BOD reviewed auditor independence and existing commercial relationships with Prager Metis, and concluded that Prager Metis has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and in the subsequent interim period through July 14, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with Prager Metis on any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls

We evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the 2019 fiscal year. This evaluation was conducted with the participation of our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and our chief financial officer (“CFO”).

Disclosure controls are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information that we are required to be disclosed in the reports we file pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applies its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

With the participation of management, our CEO and CFO evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at the conclusion of the period ended September 30, 2019. Based upon this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed is included in the reports that we file with the SEC.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) for the Company. ICFR is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ICFR includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of the inherent limitations of ICFR, misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the ICFR to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Table of Contents

Management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of our ICFR as of September 30, 2019. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, believes that, as of September 30, 2019, our ICFR reporting is not effective based on those criteria. If we are unable to remediate the material weakness, or other control deficiencies are identified, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately, prevent fraud or file our periodic reports as a public company in a timely manner.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in ICFR, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of ICFR as of September 30, 2019, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.

2. We did not implement appropriate information technology controls. As of September 30, 2019, the Company was retaining copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.

3. We currently lack sufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements.

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management concluded the Company did not maintain effective ICFR as of September 30, 2019 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO (2013 framework).

We have taken certain actions to remediate the material weakness related to our lack of U.S. GAAP experience. We engaged an outside CPA with U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience to supplement our current internal accounting personnel and assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s operations are relatively uncomplicated; the Company had limited sales and expenses. The Company maintains adequate policies and procedures for ensuring that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and any investing and financing activities are made with both management and Board authorization, and any unauthorized expenses or usage of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The Company also keeps accounting records for each of the Company’s transactions including expenses, assets purchase, prepayments, notes receivable and payable that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transaction; and for providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements.

We have limited capital resources and have given priority in the use of those resources to the development of our business. As our operations grow and become more complex, we intend to hire additional personnel in financial reporting and other areas. However, there can be no assurance of when, if ever, we will be able to remediate the identified material weaknesses.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding ICFR. As a smaller reporting company, the management’s report is not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm.

ITEM 13 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Director Independence

Under NASDAQ rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation.

Our directors, Umesh Patel and Michael Viotto, serve as our CEO and CFO, respectively. As a result, we do not have independent directors on our BOD.

The Company engaged MJF for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and in the subsequent interim period through July 14, 2019 (the “Engagement Period”).

During the Engagement Period, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and MJF on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MJF, would have caused MJF to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except as noted in the following paragraph:

As disclosed in Part I, Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s management determined the Company’s ICFR were not effective as of the end of such period due to the existence of material weaknesses related to the following:

Tax Fees

The amounts set forth opposite “Tax Fees” above reflect the aggregate fees billed for fiscal 2019 and 2018 for professional services rendered for tax compliance and return preparation.

Our policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services performed by the independent accountants. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Under our policy, pre-approval is generally provided for particular services or categories of services, including planned services, project based services and routine consultations. In addition, the BOD may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. Our BOD approved all services that our independent accountants provided to us in the past two fiscal years.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Management

Fuse Group Holding Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Fuse Group Holding, Inc. (“the Company”) as of September 30, 2019 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2019, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, as of September 30, 2019, the Company had recurring losses from operations and accumulated deficit. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

Basis of Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018

Note 1 – Organization and Operations

Fuse Group Holding Inc. (the “Company” or “Fuse Group” or “We”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 24, 2013. Fuse Group currently explores opportunities in mining. On December 6, 2016, the Company incorporated Fuse Processing, Inc. (“Processing”) in the State of California. Processing seeks business opportunities in mining and is currently investigating potential mining targets in Asia and North America. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Processing.

Fuse Group and Processing provide consulting services to mining industry clients to find mine acquisition targets within the parameters set by the clients, in circumstances in which the mine owner is considering selling its mining rights. The services of Fuse Group and Processing include due diligence on the potential mine seller and the mine, such as ownership and whether the mine meets all operation requirements and/or is currently in operation.

In March 2017, Processing acquired 100% ownership of Fuse Trading Limited (“Trading”) for HKD1 ($0.13). Trading had no operations prior to the acquisition by Processing. Trading seeks mining-related business opportunities in Asia.

On May 26, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Change with the State of Nevada to (i) increase its authorized shares of common stock from 75,000,000 to 375,000,000 and (ii) effect a corresponding 5-for-1 forward stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock Split”).

On May 3, 2018, the Company incorporated Fuse Technology Inc. (“Technology”) in the State of Nevada. Fuse Group is the sole shareholder of Technology. Technology was mainly engaged in IMETAL system development. The Company originally planned to operate IMETAL as a platform to facilitate investment and trade in raw metals, find specialized minerals, exploit these opportunities and issue tokens to be used on the platform, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Considering recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading, management discussed with the designer of the platform its function and compliance issues and felt the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected. On December 23, 2019 the Board decided to terminate the IMETAL project.

On April 29, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (“Amendment”) to change its name from Fuse Enterprises Inc. to Fuse Group Holding Inc. Also on April 29, 2019, stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock approved the Amendment. The Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State for the State of Nevada on April 30, 2019, and became effective May 13, 2019. On May 29, 2019, the Company changed its trading symbol on OTC Markets from FNST to FUST.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements (“CFS”) were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Basis of Consolidation

The CFS include the accounts of Fuse Group and its subsidiaries, Processing, Trading and Technology. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

Cash

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash, money market funds, investments in interest bearing demand deposit accounts, time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Table of Contents

Use of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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(s) of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period(s).

Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements were:

(i)	Assumption as a going concern: Management assumes the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

(ii)	Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets: Management assumes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets resulting from its net operating loss (“NOL”) carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes that may be offset against future taxable income was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are offset by a full valuation allowance. Management made this assumption based on (a) the Company having incurred recurring losses, (b) general economic conditions, and (c) its ability to raise additional funds to support its daily operations by way of a public or private offering, among other factors.

These significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change because there are uncertainties attached to these estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.

Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board - Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) for disclosures about fair value (“FV”) of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the FV of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring FV in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about FV measurements.

Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a FV hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure FV into three broad levels. The FV hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of FV hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

Level 1

Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2

Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

Level 3

Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their FVs are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

The FV hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the FV measurement of the instrument.

F-8

Table of Contents

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their FV because of the short maturity of those instruments.

Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. The Company had no outstanding accounts receivable at September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; while additions, renewals and improvements are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets and estimated lives as follows:

Computer and office equipment	5 years
Office furniture	7 years
Leasehold decoration and renovation	10 years
Production machinery	10 years
Autos	5 years

Related Parties

The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB ASC for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include: (a) affiliates of the Company; (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the FV option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions eliminated in the preparation of financial statements is not required in those statements.

The disclosures shall include: (a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; (b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; (c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and (d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB ASC to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.

In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time, that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014 the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes all existing revenue recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. This new standard requires a company to recognize revenues when it transfers goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to receive for those goods or services. The FASB subsequently issued the following amendments to ASU No. 2014-09 that have the same effective and transition dates: ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations; ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing; ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients; and ASU No. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

The new revenue standards became effective for the Company October 1, 2018, and were adopted using the modified retrospective method. The adoption of the new revenue standards as of October 1, 2018 did not change the Company’s revenue recognition as the Company did not have any revenue prior to October 1, 2018. As the Company did not identify any accounting changes that impacted the amount of reported revenues with respect to its product revenues, no adjustment to retained earnings was required upon adoption.

Under the new revenue standards, the Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company recognizes revenues following the five step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation.

Income Tax Provision

The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB ASC, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that was included in the financial statements or tax returns.

Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which 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 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 operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

F-10

Table of Contents

The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.

Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company follows paragraph 740-10-25 of the FASB ASC. Paragraph 740-10-25-13 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under paragraph 740-10-25-13, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income.

The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no unrecognized tax liabilities or benefits in accordance with the provisions of Section 740-10-25 at September 30, 2019 and 2018. The tax years 2016 - 2018 remain open to examination for federal income tax purposes and by the other major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed similar to basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all the potential common shares, warrants and stock options had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted EPS is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options and warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for the outstanding options and warrants, and the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible instruments. Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later) and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Under the if-converted method, outstanding convertible instruments are assumed to be converted into common stock at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later).

Cash Flows Reporting

The Company follows paragraph 230-10-45-24 of the FASB ASC for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect Method”) as defined by paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB ASC to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period pursuant to paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB ASC.

Software Development Costs

The Company incurs costs to develop software programs to be used primarily to meet its internal needs and to market to others. In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software, the Company capitalizes development costs for these software applications once the preliminary project stage is complete and it is probable that the project will be completed, the software will be used to perform the function intended, and the value will be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 985-20-25, costs incurred before product feasibility is established and all design and coding is completed are expensed. Reengineering costs and minor modifications and enhancements that do not significantly improve the overall functionality of the software are expensed as incurred. After considering recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading that to be used in the platform that the Company has been designing for, management discussed with the designer of the software platform its function and compliance issues and felt the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected. On December 23, 2109, the Board decided to terminate project.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). 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. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on its CFS.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its FV, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its CFS.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which expands the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. An entity should apply the requirements of ASC 718 to non-employee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost. The amendments specify that ASC 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The new guidance is effective for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (i.e., January 1, 2020, for calendar year entities). Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effects of the adoption of this guidance.

Note 3 – Going Concern

The accompanying CFS were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As reflected in the accompanying CFS, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5.91 million at September 30, 2019, and net loss of $79,656 and $4,219,920 for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a private or public offering, or by obtaining loans from banks or others. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds on reasonable terms and conditions, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenue and its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering.

The CFS do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Processing paid a deposit of $1,325,000 for the consulting fee, of which $325,000 was expensed as a consulting fee based on the agreement, and the remaining $1,000,000 of which would have been refunded to the Company if the Company had not made an investment and/or entered into a business relationship in Mexico. The consulting company found acquisition targets for the Company, and on June 22, 2018, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with a seller for the purchase of five mines located in different areas of Mexico for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. Upon the execution of the MOU, the Company acquired the exclusive right to purchase the mines from the seller, effective until September 30, 2018. The parties entered into an oral agreement pursuant to which the Company will pay the $1,000,000 purchase price upon receiving approvals from the Mexican government allowing for the transfer of the mining concession. The transfer request has been submitted to, and is being processed by, the Mexican government, but that processing was delayed due to elections and new administration in Mexico. The Company was not able to provide an estimate time for the approval at this report date. The remaining $1,000,000 of consulting fee, which relates to the acquisition of assets in Mexico will be part of the asset acquisition costs upon completion of the assets acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-5-30-1.

Note 7 – Notes payable (related party)

On March 20, 2017, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note Purchase Agreement with the major shareholder and Trading (the “Amended Agreement”). The Amended Agreement amended and restated the Original Agreement. Under the terms of the Amended Agreement, the Original Note issued under the Original Agreement was cancelled and Trading issued a Promissory Note to the Purchaser of $6,869,818, with a term of 12 months, renewable for up to an additional 12 months at the Purchaser’s option, with interest of 3% (the “New Note”). The Purchaser does not have a conversion option under the New Note. The principal amount of the New Note and any unpaid interest accrued thereon may become due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of certain events of default, including but not limited to Trading’s insolvency or the institution of bankruptcy proceedings against Trading. The Amended Agreement was renewed on March 20, 2018 with a new maturity date of July 2, 2018.

On June 28, 2018, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Trading and the Purchaser, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Purchaser in a private placement 19,628,050 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $0.35 per Share for an aggregate offering price of $6,869,818 (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchaser paid the Purchase Price through the cancellation of the New Note. There is no gain or loss arising from the note conversion due to the conversion price being the same as the market price and there is no substantial change in the cash flows. The Private Placement will be completed pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Company issued the shares to the Purchaser on July 6, 2018.

As such, as of September 30, 2018, the Company had no outstanding balance or interest payable on the New Note. During the year ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred interest expense of $157,433.

Note 8 – Shareholders’ Equity

On July 6, 2018, the Company issued 19,628,050 shares for repayment of the note payable of $6,869,818 (“Note 8”).

Note 9 – Income Tax

The President of the United States signed into law H.R. 1 (the “Tax Reform Law”). The Tax Reform Law, effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, except for certain provisions, resulted in significant changes to existing United States tax law, including various provisions that are expected to impact the Company. The Tax Reform Law reduced the federal corporate tax rate from 34% to 21% effective October 1, 2018 for the Company.

At September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward for income tax purposes; for federal income tax purposes, the NOL arising in tax years beginning after 2017 may only reduce 80% of a taxpayer’s taxable income, and may be carried forward indefinitely; for California income tax purposes, the entire NOL can be carried forward up to 20 years. The Company has NOL carry-forwards for Federal and California income tax purposes of $5.71 million and $5.63 million at September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. No tax benefit was reported with respect to these NOL carry-forwards in the accompanying CFS because the Company believes the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets for the NOL for both federal and California State of approximately $1.56 million as of September 30, 2019, was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are fully offset by a full valuation allowance.

Components of deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

	2019			2018
Net deferred tax assets – Non-current:
Expected income tax benefit from NOL carry-forwards	$	1,564,552		$	1,481,269
Less valuation allowance		(1,564,552	)		(1,481,269	)
Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance	$	-		$	-

Consulting and Service Agreements

On April 1, 2017, the Company entered into a strategic consulting agreement with a consulting company with a term of one year. The compensation to the consulting company is $50,000 per year, payable in equal installments at the end of each month. The agreement was extended to March 31, 2020 with the same terms.

On May 4, 2018, the Company entered into a Mineral Mining Interactive Technology and Related Application Software Development Service Contract (the “Contract”) with Prime King Investment Limited (“Prime King”) described as below:

Pursuant to the terms of the Contract, Prime King is providing services to the Company relating to the development, installation and debugging of a software system called IMETAL. The Company originally planned to operate IMETAL as a platform to facilitate investment and trade in raw metals, find specialized minerals, exploit these opportunities and issue tokens to be used on the platform, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations (the “Project”).

Prime King shall also provide training to the Company’s staff per the Company’s request as well as maintenance for the Project for one year after the completion of the Project, in each case free of charge.

Under the Contract, the Company shall pay Prime King $3,000,000, of which 50% was paid within 10 days of the execution of the Contract, and the remaining 50% was to be paid within 10 days of the completion of the Project after inspection and approval by the Company. The service was required to be completed in three months, however, on July 17, 2018, the deadline was extended until October 17, 2018, and the Company agreed to extend the deadline further, due to changes in technical requirements requested by the Company. Up to September 30, 2018, the Company paid Prime King $1.5 million, which was recorded as software development costs. The Company did not pay anything to Prime King for the year ended September 30, 2019. The Company previously expected the project to be completed by March 31, 2019. However, the process was delayed because the Company wanted to evaluate certain functions of this platform and regulatory compliance requirements for such functions before it could determine whether to include them in the platform. After considering recent development of laws and regulations on token issuance and trading, management discussed with the designer of the platform its function and compliance issues and felt the project has more issues and costs for compliance than originally expected. On December 23, 2019, the Board decided to terminate the IMETAL project.

Effective April 1, 2018, the Company entered another Consulting & Strategist Agreement with a consulting company in Hong Kong for a term of one year. The consulting services mainly include business strategy and business development advisory for the Company’s potential new ventures in the Far East, mainly in Hong Kong and Russia. The consulting fee is $40,000 per month, payable monthly on or about the first day of each month. The Company did not renew the agreement upon expiration.

Exploratory Drilling Agreement and Related Costs. On April 1, 2018, the Company entered into a contract with an individual owner of a mining concession in Mexico. The mine is located in Mexico, in the state of Sinaloa, Badiraguato municipality, Nocoriba village. The latitude is 25.2520000 and the longitude is -107.225500. The Company started drilling within the concession 10HAAS. For the year ended September 30, 2019, the Company spent $238,750; for the year ended September 30, 2018, the Company spent $727,819, which was recorded as consulting expense. The Company expects to spend an additional $1.56 million on this project as of September 30, 2019. If the project is successful, the Company will receive 3% equity in the mine (which percentage will be paid upon successful completion of exploration and drilling of the mine). The Company is currently waiting for the analysis report.

Employment Agreement

The Company currently has an employment agreement with Michael Viotto, the Company’s CFO. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, dated August 21, 2019, Mr. Viotto receives annual compensation of $50,000, and the agreement has a term of one year. Mr. Viotto’s employment agreement includes typical clauses relating to noncompetition, nonsolicitation and indemnification of Mr. Viotto in connection with his service as the Company’s CFO.

Note 12 – Subsequent Events
