Corporate History and Background

ADGS Advisory,Quality Online Education Group Inc., which (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware inon September 20, 2007 under the nameas Life Nutrition Products, Inc., and was previously a dietary supplement company specializing in the development marketing and distribution of all natural, proprietary, dietary supplements under the names Trim For Life® Appetite Control and Trim For Life® Energy Formula. Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation filed with the State of Delaware and effective as of July 19, 2013, Life Nutrition Products, Inc.LNP changed its corporate name to ADGS“ADGS Advisory, Inc.

In our original business plan, we outlined a marketing strategy to compete more effectively in the dietary supplement marketplace. However, due to a lack of available financing, we were unable to implement the marketing strategy or invest in product expansion. We are no longer pursuing this business. As a result, we began to explore other viable options that may provide the potential to generate a positive cash flow to accommodate the costs of being a public company. With volatile economic conditions and unknown opportunities, we are unable to adequately determine if there are indeed, business opportunities that would lend to”. On May 14, 2021, the Company acquiring additional capital or having the available resourceschanged its name to construct such a deal.Quality Online Education Group Inc., and its symbol to “QOEG.”

On September 7, 2010, wethe Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Conqueror Share Exchange Agreement”) with Conqueror Group Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Conqueror”) and Acumen Charm Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation (the “Conqueror Shareholder”). Pursuant to the Conqueror Share Exchange Agreement, at the closing of the transaction contemplated in the Conqueror Share Exchange Agreement (the “Conqueror Transaction”), the Company was to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Conqueror from the Conqueror Shareholder, making Conqueror a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. There was no prior relationship between the Company and any of its affiliates and the Conqueror Shareholder and any of its affiliates.

The Closing was to transpire on or before January 31, 2011 but it did not occur by that date. However, as of May 11, 2011, among other things, Michael M. Salerno, the Company’s then sole officer and director, resigned as an officer and director of the Company, and appointed Chu Zhanjun and Li Gang as directors, and Chu Zhanjun as President, Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Company, each a designee of Conqueror. As a result, a change in control occurred, due to the resignation of Mr. Salerno as sole officer and director, appointment of Mr. Chu as President, Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Company, and appointment of Mr. Chu and Mr. Li as directors. At the time, the parties anticipated that the transaction contemplated by the Conqueror Share Exchange Agreement would not be completed at any time in future.

In consideration for the purchase of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong, the Original Exchange Agreement provided that the Company would issue a total of 20,155,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

On March 28, 2013, the Companywe entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Original Exchange Agreement (the Original Exchange Agreement, as amended is referred to hereinin this report as the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Companywe agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Almonds Kisses Limited (BVI), a British Virgin Islands company (“Almonds Kisses BVI”), from the eight shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI (the “Shareholders”), instead of the shares of ADGS, Hong Kong, on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement. Almonds Kisses BVI is the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong.ADGS. The Original Exchange Agreement incorrectly indicated that such owner was ADGS Holdings which error was corrected in the Amendment. The Shareholders wereare Tong Wing Yee, Tong Wing Shan, Tso Yin Yee, Pang Yiu Kwong, Sin Kok Ho, Fahy Roase-Collette, Tsang Kwai Chun and ADGS Holdings, each of whom executed the Amendment. In addition, on March 28, 2013, the parties to the Exchange Agreement entered into an Extension Agreement (the “Extension Agreement”) extending the closing date of the Transaction to on or before April 15, 2013.


OnThus, upon consummation of the Acquisition which occurred on April 12, 2013, the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement were consummated whereby, among other things, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Almonds Kisses BVI in exchange for an aggregate of 20,155,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Acquisition”).

As a result of the Acquisition, Almonds Kisses BVI became our wholly-owned subsidiary and the former shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI became our controlling shareholders, and Almond Kisses BVI in turn owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ADGS Hong Kong.ADGS. In January 2013, Almonds Kisses BVI also ownsbecame the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Vantage, Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Vantage”) which was acquired by Almondscorporation. Almond Kisses BVI(BVI) in January 2013; 100%turn also owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Motion Tech Development Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Motion Tech”), which was acquired in August 2013; and, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of T H Strategic Management Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“T H Strategic”), which was acquired in October 2013.Vantage.

Management believes such structure may provide certain advantages in the future in that shares held in a Hong Kong corporation are subject to a fairly substantial stamp duty on the transfer of any of such shares while the transfer of shares in a BVI company is not subject to any stamp duty in the BVI. In addition, Management further believes the BVI holding company structure may provide other benefits in the future including more corporate flexibility in that mergers can be effected by a BVI company compared to Hong Kong where a Hong Kong company is not able to merge with any entity insofar that a merger is not provided for under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

Our market consists of students from K12 to adults. The lessons we provide are focused on the interaction and application of English as well as test preparation such as IELTS.

While remaining based in Canada, we have successfully launched a direct selling model around the world. This business model is cost-effective, enabling us to save significant sales and marketing dollars and build a stronger cash flow outlook compared to the competitors who only use online advertising.

We are also launching small group lessons, one teacher teaches 2-4 students online at the same time, which unit price is lower than other competitors, which may be affordable for more students in our target cities yet with a higher margin.

We intend to further develop our sales of our online products through making it available and recognized in more and more countries in need of English teaching resources. Moreover, we anticipate a greater margin of profit by increasing the student retention rate and launching new product lines, like group lessons.

All our cash is paid directly by our customers to our Canadian company. We pay Li Hon Lunservice expenses and sales commissions to the sumservice partners in different countries for the local customer service.

Competitive Conditions

The online English education services market in general is fragmented, rapidly evolving, and highly competitive. We also face competition from other online and mobile platforms or internet companies that plan to expand their business into English education.

We believe that the principal competitive factors in our markets include the following:

scope and quality of course offerings;

quality and performance of the teachers;

overall student experience and satisfaction;

ability to effectively market course offerings to target customer groups, and

cost-effectiveness of courses;

6

We believe that we are well-positioned to effectively compete in the selected cities’ market in which we operate on the basis of HK $4.0 million (approximately US $516,000) payableour innovative approach to acquire students, scalable and efficient business model, extensive and high-quality teacher network, high course quality, and experienced management team caring about all the stakeholders including students, parents of our students, business partners, as well as the tutors.

However, some of our current or future competitors may have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, or greater financial, technical, or marketing resources than we do. For a discussion of risks related to competition, see more discussion in four equal“Risk Factors”.

Sales and Marketing

To customer business marketing and sales

We market our platform through a combination of online social media and offline channels, and we also generate sales leads through referrals, which we called “The Mommy Influencer Sales”.

The Mommy Influencers

We have historically generated a significant percentage of our sales leads through word-of-mouth referrals by our students and their parents in K-12 product lines. New enrollments through word-of-mouth referrals have benefited from the rapid growth in our student base, as well as our reputation, brand, and the proven learning results of our students. We integrated social network functionalities into our mobile app, such as sharing functions with WeChat, to encourage students to share their learning experiences with their friends. We believe the rapid growth of our K-12 student base, greater brand awareness, and the success of our K-12 students in achieving their English learning objectives lead to more word-of-mouth referrals and the purchase of larger course packages by our K-12 students initially.

We have a KOL (Key Opinion Leader) marketing ecosystem in online and offline communities, including online social media groups and offline training camps. the KOLs bring significant leads to our sales team. We pay influencers when their referrals end up buying the products. It’s known in marketing circles as fission sales. To support this sales model, we developed a virtual campus system and recruit headmasters for the virtual campus. Each headmaster manages a group of mummy influencers who provide leads to our telemarketing team.

Our telemarketing teams follow-up on sales leads by providing additional information and support and trying to convince prospective students to enroll in our free trial lessons. Our course consultants then follow up with prospective students who have taken our free trial lessons and promote course packages most suited to each student’s background, proficiency, and learning objectives.

Branding

We are focused on promoting our brand and increasing the overall effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts. In 2019, we engaged Chris Downs, a Canadian educator, author, teacher, celebrity, and popular guest star of a TV series and movies in China. We believe Chris’s success in his career and image echoes with our company principle on delivering good quality education for all the students.

To business marketing and sales

We also provide online English tutor solutions to business customers by direct sales model. We help the business customers build up their own brand online English lessons or add native English speaker tutors. Many small-medium education centers and institutions around the globe are interested in expanding their product line to foreign teacher English lessons, for example, after school tutoring centers, kid’s picture book clubs, immigration agencies etc.

We provide holistic solutions to business customers including recruiting, training, and managing the tutors. Our dedicated corporate sales force regularly communicates with potential business clients in every city we enter.

We can provide construction cost advice, construction cost estimating and advice relating to construction services which are affordable and tailored to a client’s specific needs. Quantity surveying services range from preliminary cost estimates during feasibility, project management and cost control during construction and tax depreciation schedules and sinking fund forecasts during post construction.

Business Development Service in PRC and Thailand

Although all of our business operations and services are performed in Hong Kong, we also maintain branch offices in Shenzhen, PRC and Bangkok, Thailand for marketing purposes only in order to attract potential clients to use our services in Hong Kong for businesses or other ventures which such potential clients may maintain in Hong Kong. In connection therewith, we have retained an individual who is a professional accountant and has been an investment bankerCompany’s compliance with approximately 30 years of experience in the PRC and Australia to manage this new area of business for us. We believe there are a sufficient number of individuals and other entities in both the PRC and Thailand with business dealings in Hong Kong that justify our marketing efforts in those areas. However, there can be no assurance that wethese measures will be able to successfully manage and grow our business through such marketing efforts in both the PRC and Thailand.

Market Analysis

Although there are many consulting companies in Hong Kong providing similar services, we believe that that there a few consulting companies in Hong Kong that have professional standards equal to ours in the business segments in which we provide service. We believe the Company has a solid and loyal client base in a market that has experienced a certain level of sustained growth in recent years.

The following market trends seem to be the most important to our business:

Trend 1 – Accountancy service. Accountancy is a growing market. The tightening of financial regulations, in the wake of a number of recent scandals, and the onus being put on small businesses/individuals to submit accounts that meet stricter standards of compliance, should contribute to continued growth for the Company. Financial reporting and corporate governance are growth areas. The trend to outsource services is well established for businesses, and we believe such trend will continue and increase with the difficulty many companies face in finding suitable employees.

Trend 2 – Bookkeeping service. Presently, many small companies do not have full-time accountants for their accountancy work, and we believe many will use the services of an outside accountant or company to minimize operating costs and achieve a higher level of financial management oversight. Businesses regularly need the services of a qualified accountant to help compile or check that financial records are in order and up to date.


Trend 3 – Company secretarial service. According to Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, every company shall have a secretary. The company secretary shall (a) if an individual, ordinarily reside in Hong Kong; (b) if a body corporate, has its registered office or place of business in Hong Kong. The company secretary can also be a director. However, if there is only one director, he/she/it shall not also be the secretary of the company. We believe many companies in Hong Kong have only one director so they need to appoint a company secretary. Such services are offered and can be performed by us.

Trend 4 – Corporate recovery and insolvency services. As described above, each year there will be a percentage of unsuccessful businesses resulting in liquidation or company restructuring. We can offer the services of highly qualified insolvency practitioners. Our Chief Operating Officer, Tso Yin Yee and our Senior Assurance & Business Advisory Consultant, Pang Yiu Kwong are experienced insolvency practitioners having being appointed as Joint and Several Provisional Liquidators under Panel ‘T’ by Official Receiver’s Office under Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

Trend 5 – General consulting. With growing competition, increasing economic and business sophistication and regulatory compliance requirements, more companies need advice and strategies from experts and consultants across a wide range of specialties.

Customers

As mentioned above, our services are primarily provided to individuals, small and medium sized businesses and charitable organizations. In addition to our marketing efforts to attract potential new clients, we have in the past purchased customer lists and client bases from unrelated third parties in order to increase our customer base. Prior to our formation, customer lists and client bases were purchased in 2005 by ADGS Tax and customer lists and client bases were purchased in 2011 by ADGS Hong Kong. Such customer lists and client bases were purchased from unrelated accounting firms and secretarial companies and are accounted for as intangible assets and amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years. In addition, in September 2013, we acquired a new client base from an unrelated party, and in October 2013, we further increased our client base by purchasing all of the issued and outstanding shares of TH Strategic whereby TH Strategic became a wholly owned subsidiary of Almonds Kisses BVI. TH Strategic is a Hong Kong based accounting services and business consulting firm. In the future, we expect that we will seek to purchase other customer lists and client bases, as well as possibly purchasing other businesses, as part of our overall growth strategy, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so on terms which will be acceptable to us.

See “Recent Developments” above for information on the Customer List Purchase Agreement entered into on July 30, 2014 with Lau Kam George and Yung Chi Shing (collectively, the “Sellers”) pursuant to which ADGS Hong Kong has agreed to acquire from the Sellers the customer list of the accounting advisory business of the Sellers operating under the name of Acorate Advisory Limited and Berfield Enterprise Solutions and Technology Limited, located in Hong Kong. The transaction is expected to close on or before March 30, 2015.

Our Competition

Competition in the general field of business consulting is quite intense in Hong Kong. Although numerous established companies offer a variety of services to different customer segments, we consider competition in our focus market niche of small and medium business to be modest. Customers in this segment strongly rely on the consultant’s professional qualifications and the ability to come up with viable solutions in a timely and cost effective manner. Although we believe that we have unique strengths compared with our competitors, our industry is highly competitive and our continued success depends upon our ability to compete effectively in markets that contain numerous competitors across the country, some of which have significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. New or existing competition that uses a business model that is different from our business model may put pressure on us to change so that we can remain competitive.

We believe we achieve a competitive edge among the bookkeeping and accountancy services due to the combination of CPA oversight we maintain with lower-level, inexpensive labor. Clients will receive the advantage of having a CPA review their books and provide additional advice when appropriate, while not paying much more than they would to hire their own bookkeeper.

In addition, for other consultancy services such as taxation, insolvency and other general consulting, we have a wide range of professionals in house who can provide complete, reliable and high quality services to our clients.


We believe the larger consulting firms tend to ignore the small business market because they are better positioned to serve larger businesses. Many of these large consulting firms have several hundred employees and we believe are generally not interested in dealing with small and medium business. In addition, we believe we offer more diversified services than many other small consulting companies who tend to offer services to particular industries and restrict themselves in the services they offer.

Government Regulation

Our services generally are not subject to governmental regulation in the markets in which we operate. However, our clients may require that we comply with certain rules and regulations even if those rules and regulations do not actually apply to us. In addition, our clients may require that certain of our service providers who provide services maintain certain professional licenses in order to provide the appropriate services for that particular client. We are also governed by laws in Hong Kong regulating the employer/employee relationship, such as tax withholding and reporting, social security or retirement, anti-discrimination and workers compensation. Failure to comply with any applicable laws and regulations could result in restrictions on our ability to provide our services, as well as the imposition of fines and penalties, which could have a material adverse effectimpact on its existing business in the countries other than China. To make sure our operations.customers are not from mainland China, we stopped the marketing and sales activities in mainland China, and the updated service agreement required the customers announce that they are not living in mainland China. Our updated service agreement is attached hereto as an Exhibit.

Our Employees

We currently employ 30 full time people consisting of 3 executive management, 5 senior consultants and 22 staff. We require our employees to have appropriate education, training or work experience in their respective fields. We believe that our management team possesses in-depth knowledge critical to our Company’s success and is capable of identifying and seizing market opportunities, and implementing our business plans. We believe we are in material compliance with all applicable labor and safety laws and regulations in Hong Kong.

Risks Related to Financing Our Business

Expenses required to operate as a public company will reduce funds available to develop our business and could negatively affect our stock price and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

Operating as a public company is more expensive than operating as a private company, including additional funds required to obtain outside assistance from legal, accounting, investor relations, or other information included in this report, before making an investment decision.professionals that could be more costly than planned. We may also be required to hire additional staff to comply with additional SEC and OTC Markets reporting requirements. We anticipate that these costs will be approximately $100,000 annually. Our failure to comply with reporting requirements and other provisions of securities laws could negatively affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

Our growth depends on external sources of capital, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all. In addition, investors, banks, and other financial institutions may be reluctant to enter into any lending or financial transactions with us, because we intend to enter into the cultivation and production of sustainable agriculture. If any of the following risks actually occurs,source of funding is unavailable to us, our growth may be limited, and our operating profit may be impaired.

We may not be in a position to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities for growth if we are unable, due to global or regional economic uncertainty, changes in the state or federal regulatory environment relating to the sustainable agriculture industry, our own operating or financial performance or otherwise, to access capital markets on a timely basis and on favorable terms or at all. Because we intend to grow our business, this limitation may require us to raise additional equity or incur debt at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.

Our access to capital will depend upon a number of factors over which we have little or no control, including general market conditions and the market’s perception of our current and potential future earnings. If general economic instability or downturn leads to an inability to obtain capital to finance, the operation could be negatively impacted. In addition, investors, banks, and other financial institutions may be reluctant to enter into financing transactions with us, because we intend to acquire properties for the use in the cultivation and production of sustainable agriculture. If this source of funding is unavailable to us, our growth may be limited.

Our ability to raise funding is subject to all of the above factors and will also be affected by our future financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations.

Any future indebtedness reduces cash available for distribution and may expose us to the risk of default under debt obligations that we may incur in the future.

Payments of principal and interest on borrowings that we may incur in the future may leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate the business. Our level of debt and the limitations imposed on us by debt agreements could have significant material and adverse consequences, including the following:

our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments;

we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms, or at all;

we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness;

to the extent we borrow debt that bears interest at variable rates, increases in interest rates could materially increase our interest expense;

we may default on our obligations or violate restrictive covenants; in which case the lenders may accelerate these debt obligations.

our default under any loan with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness.

If any one of these events were to occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline,be materially and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Organization, Structure and Business

The change of the business in recent months may be unsuccessful.

In December of 2021, we stopped acquiring students who live in mainland China. In compliance with the New Regulation, the “Opinions on Further Alleviating the Burden of Homework and After-School Tutoring for Students in Compulsory Education” published in July 2021 by the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council of the PRC, the Company ceased offering tutoring services to students in mainland China in April 2022. We delivered all the services in active contract before the cessation. Our failure to now further increase our student enrollment could negatively affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.

Our company hasWe are dependent on our key personnel for our success.

We will depend upon the efforts, experience, diligence, skill, and network of business contacts of our senior management team; therefore, our success will depend on their continued service. The departure of any of our executive officers or key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. If any of our key personnel were to cease their employment, our operating results could suffer. Further, we do not intend to maintain key person life insurance that would provide us with proceeds in the event of death or disability of any of our key personnel.

We believe our future success depends upon our senior management team’s ability to hire and retain highly skilled managerial, operational, and marketing personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such skilled personnel. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of key personnel, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, and the value of your investment may decline.

Furthermore, we may retain independent contractors to provide various services for us, including administrative services, transfer agent services and professional services. Such contractors have no fiduciary duty to us and may not perform as expected or desired.

We have a limited operating history with our current business model, which makes it difficult to predict our future prospects and financial performance.

We have only been engaged ina short operating history with our current business operationsmodel. Our business since March 2011. Dueinception has generated limited gross billings and revenues, and may not produce significant gross billings and revenues in the near term, or at all, which may harm our ability to obtain additional financing and may require us to reduce or discontinue our operations. If we do generate significant gross billings and revenues in the future, we expect it will be largely from the sale of our English course packages on our online and mobile education platforms. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we may encounter as an early-stage operating company in a new and rapidly evolving industry. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could significantly harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our senior management team will manage our business subject to very broad management guidelines and generally will not seek board approval for each management decision.

Our senior management team has discretion over the use of proceeds from this limited operating history, it may be difficultoffering, and you will have no opportunity to evaluate the terms of transactions or other economic or financial data concerning our business prospects and financial performance. While we achieved net income foroperations that are not described in this offering circular or other periodic filings with the fiscal years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, we sustainedSEC. Furthermore, currently a net loss for eachsubstantial portion of the fiscal years ended August 31, 2012net proceeds of this offering is not specifically committed to any specific projects or business. We will rely on the senior management team’s ability to execute the business plan, subject to the oversight and August 31, 2011. Thereapproval of our board of directors. Accordingly, you should not purchase Common Stock of the Company unless you are willing to entrust all aspects of our day-to-day management to our senior management team.

Our board of directors may change our operation objectives and strategies without shareholders’ consent.

Our board of directors determines our major policies, including regarding financing, growth, debt capitalization, distributions, and other material events. Our board of directors may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the shareholders. Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, our shareholders generally have a right to vote only on the following matters:

11

change the name or other designation or the par value of the Common Stock;

increase or decrease the aggregate number of Common Stock that we have the authority to issue;

increase or decrease the aggregate number of Common Stock that we have the authority to issue; our being a party to a merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets or statutory merger or acquisition.

All other matters are subject to the discretion of our board of directors.

The fact that we have generated operating losses in the past raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company may generate operating losses before the expansion of our courses and students. We may have to cover any shortfall in operating capital from sales of equity and debt securities, but there can be no assurance that we can maintain profitability beyond fiscal 2014. Further,will continue to be able to do so. The unpredictable economy in the United States and Canada and the volatile public or private equity markets may make it more difficult for us to raise capital as and when we need it, and it is difficult for us to assess the impact this might have on our operations or liquidity. If we cannot raise the funds that we require to continue our business operations, there is a substantial risk that our business will fail.

We may be unable to attract and retain qualified, experienced, highly skilled personnel, which could adversely affect the implementation of our business plan.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled and qualified personnel. As we become a more mature company in the future, operating resultswe may find recruiting and retention efforts more challenging. If we do not succeed in attracting, hiring and integrating excellent personnel, or retaining and motivating existing personnel, we may be unable to grow effectively. The loss of any key employee, including shareholders of our senior management team, and our inability to attract highly skilled personnel with sufficient experience in our industries could harm our business.

If we are not able to continue to attract students to purchase our course packages and to increase the spending of our students on our platform, our business and prospects will be materially and adversely affected.

Our ability to continue to attract students to purchase our course packages and to increase their spending on our education platform, are critical to the continued success and growth of our business. This in turn will depend upon a number ofon several factors, including our ability to effectively market our platform to a broader base of prospective students, continue to develop, adapt, or enhance quality educational content and services to meet the evolving demands of our existing or prospective students and expand our geographic reach. We must also manage our growth retainwhile maintaining consistent and increase our customer base and to successfully identifyhigh teaching quality, and respond effectively to any emerging trends in our market areas.

We may have difficulty in managing our future growth and any associated increased scale of our operations.We expect to expand through both organic growth and acquisitions. Our future expansion may place a significant strain on our managerial, operational, technical and financial resources. In order to better allocate our resources to manage our growth, we must hire, recruit and manage our workforce effectively and implement adequate internal controls in a timely manner.competitive pressures. If we are unable to effectively managecontinue to attract students to purchase our growthcourse packages and to increase the associated increased scalespending of our operations,students on our business, financial conditionplatform, our gross billings and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.


Our business requires significant and continuous capital investment.We will require a high level of capital expenditure in the foreseeable future to fund our future growth. We intend to fund our capital expenditures and future acquisitions out of internal sources of liquidity and/or through access to additional financing from external sources. Our ability to obtain external financing in the future at a reasonable cost is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:

·

our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;

·

the condition of the global and domestic financial markets; and

·

changes in the monetary policy of the Hong Kong governments with respect to bank interest rates and lending practices.

If we require additional funds and cannot obtain them on acceptable terms when required or at a reasonable financing cost or at all, wenet revenues may be unable to fulfill our working capital needs or expand our business. These or other factors may also prevent us from entering into transactions that would otherwise benefit our business or implementing our future strategies. Any of these factorsdecline, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our bank loans present a significant risk. To date, we have significantly relied upon debt financings to fund our operations. At August 31, 2013 (audited) and August 31, 2014 (audited), we had outstanding bank loans (excluding bank overdrafts) in the principal amount of $2,286,785 and $4,126,739, respectively. We also had bank overdrafts of $253,738 as of August 31, 2014. Interest expense from bank loans and overdrafts (excluding capital lease interest) for the year ended August 31, 2014 was $78,660 and for year ended August 31, 2013 was $127,101. Such loans are primarily term loans with maturity dates ranging from November 2014 to October 2037. Approximately $2 million of the bank loans are to be repaid over the next five years. While we have begun to achieve profitable operations during fiscal 2014, there can be no assurance that such profitability will continue or that revenues from our operations will be able to service these debt obligations. This presents a significant risk to the Company in that the Company may not have the necessary cash to meet such payment obligations, or if it does, such payments may draw significantly on the Company’s cash position. Any of such events will likely have a materially detrimental effect on the Company.

If we are unable to attractconduct sales and marketing activities cost-effectively, our results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

We have incurred significant sales and marketing expenses. Our sales expenses include telemarketing sales and free trial lesson related expenses, and our marketing expenses include online and offline marketing and seminar expenses.

Our sales activities may not be well received by students and may not result in the levels of sales that we anticipate, and our trial lessons may not be attractive to our prospective students. Furthermore, we may not be able to achieve the operational efficiency necessary to increase the gross billings per sales and marketing staff. We also may not be able to retain or recruit experienced sales staff, or to efficiently train junior sales staff. Further, marketing and branding approaches and tools in the online education market are evolving, especially for mobile platforms. This further requires us to enhance our marketing and branding approaches and experiment with new methods to keep pace with industry developments and student preferences. Failure to refine our existing marketing and branding approaches or to introduce new marketing and branding approaches in a cost-effective manner may reduce our market share, cause our revenues to decline and negatively impact our profitability.

If we are not able to continue to engage, train and retain senior managementqualified teachers, we may not be able to maintain consistent teaching quality on our platform, and personnel, our operations,business, financial conditionconditions and prospects couldoperating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Our future success depends in part onteachers are critical to the contributionslearning experience of our management team and key personnelstudents and our abilityreputation. We seek to engage highly qualified teachers with strong English and teaching skills. We must provide competitive pay and other benefits, such as nice company culture and clear career path to attract and retain qualifiedthem. We must also provide ongoing training to our teachers to ensure that they stay abreast of changes in course materials, student demands and other changes and trends necessary to teach effectively. Furthermore, as we continue to develop new personnel. In particular, our success depends on the continuing services of Li Lai Ying, Tso Yin Yee, Pang Yiu Kwongcourse contents and Tong Wing Shan. There is significant competition in our industry for qualified managerial, key personnel andlesson formats, we may need to engage additional teachers with appropriate skill sets or backgrounds to deliver instructions effectively. We cannot assure youguarantee that we will be able to retaineffectively engage and train such teachers quickly, or at all. Further, given other potential more attractive opportunities for our key senior managerial and other personnelquality teachers, over time some of them may choose to leave our platform. We have not experienced major difficulties in engaging, training or thatretaining qualified teachers in the past, however, we willmay not always be able to attract, integrateengage, train and retain other such personnel that we may require in the future. If we are unableenough qualified teachers to attract and retain key personnel in the future, our business, operations, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

Our operating costs may increase.Costs in Hong Kong are generally expected to increase. If our labor costs or other operating costs increase and we cannot increase our services efficiency to offset any such increase or pass any such increase on to our customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The industry in which we operate is highly competitive.Competition in the general field of business consulting is quite intense in Hong Kong. Although numerous established companies offer a variety of services to different customer segments, we consider competition in our focus market niche of small and medium business to be modest. Customers in this segment strongly rely on the consultant’s professional qualifications and the ability to come up with viable solutions in a timely and cost effective manner. Although we believe that we have unique strengths comparedkeep pace with our competitors, our industry is highly competitive and our continued success depends upon our ability to compete effectively in markets that contain numerous competitors across the country, some of which have significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. New or existing competition that uses a business model that is different from our business model may put pressure on us to change so that we can remain competitive.


We may be subject to disputes with employees or other third parties.The businesses we operate involve dealings with both permanent and temporary employees as well as numerous third parties and customers, and we may be subject to claims or litigation involving such employees or third parties from time to time such as labor disputes and claims under business contracts with customers and others.growth while maintaining consistent education quality. We may also be subject to labor disputes, labor shortagesface significant competition in engaging qualified teachers from our competitors or from other impositions on our business operations, if weopportunities that are unable to amicably resolve disputes with any such parties. We cannot assure you that any such disputes will not ariseperceived as more desirable. A shortage of qualified teachers, a decrease in the future and thatquality of our teachers’ performance, whether actual or perceived, or a significant increase in the occurrence of onecost to engage or multiple disputes will notretain qualified teachers would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.conditions and results of operations.

The Chinese government could attempt to farther extend its reach to include our Company.

If the Chinese government attempts to further extend its reach of authority. If it does so to the degree that it covers the Company because of our past operations in China, it could materially harm the value of our common stock or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

If we fail to successfully execute our growth strategies, our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

Our growth strategies include grow our student base and increase student enrollments, increasing our market penetration amongst K-12 students, expanding our course offerings, enhancing our teaching methods, improving the learning experience of our students, and advancing our technology. We may not succeed in executing these growth strategies due to a number of factors, including the following:

we may not be able to replicate the success and growth of our business model from existing cities to other cities

we may fail to further promote our platforms;

we may not be successful in effectively delivering and promoting our small class lessons

we may fail to effectively promote our solutions to business customers

we may not be able to engage, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified teachers and other key personnel;

we may not be able to continue to improve our personalized learning experience of our students and to enhance our existing courses or develop new courses, especially for young students, that meet the changing demands for English learners;

we may fail to maintain the technology necessary to deliver a smooth learning experience to our students; and

we may not be able to identify suitable targets for acquisitions and partnership.

If we fail to coverdevelop and introduce new courses that meet our existing and prospective students’ expectations, or adopt new technologies important to our business, risks.our competitive position and ability to generate revenues may be materially and adversely affected.

Historically, our core business centered on one-on-one English courses. We face varioushave since expanded our course offerings to small class lessons, and test preparation targeting a wide range of student demographics. We intend to continue developing new courses. The timing of the introduction of new courses is subject to risks and uncertainties. Unexpected technical, operational, or other problems could delay or prevent the introduction of one or more new courses. Moreover, we cannot assure you that any of these courses or programs will match the quality or popularity of those developed by our competitors, achieve widespread market acceptance or contribute the desired level of income.

Technology standards in internet and value-added telecommunications services and products in general, and in online education in particular, may change over time. If we fail to anticipate and adapt to technological changes, our market share and our business development could suffer, which in turn could have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing any of the risks related to new courses, our reputation and business may be materially and adversely affected.

We use the streaming technology and infrastructure of a third-party to deliver all the lessons to our students and to conduct teacher training. Any interruption to or discontinuation of our cooperative relationship with this company may severely and negatively impact our ability to deliver our course content to students.

We use the technology of EEO EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY CO. LTD. (EEO), to deliver audio and video data, and their technology is important to our ongoing ability to operate our online and mobile education platforms. Loss of their services could keep us from operating.

Some students may decide not to continue taking our courses for a number of reasons, including a perceived lack of improvement in connectiontheir English proficiency or general dissatisfaction with our business. However,programs, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

The success of our business depends in large part on our ability to retain our students by delivering a satisfactory learning experience and improving their English proficiency. If students feel that we are not insuredproviding them the experience they are seeking, they may choose not to renew their existing packages. For example, our education programs may fail to significantly improve a student’s English proficiency. There are no standard assessments or tests to measure the effectiveness of our lessons or teaching methods, and our ability to improve the English proficiency of our students is largely dependent upon the interests, efforts and time commitment of each student. For K-12 students, parent satisfaction with our programs is also a key factor. Their satisfaction may decline for a number of reasons, many of which may not reflect the effectiveness of our lessons and teaching methods. A student’s learning experience may also suffer if his or her relationship with our teachers and teaching assistants does not meet expectations. We have observed an increase in forfeiture rate historically, which may negatively impact the perceived effectiveness of our curriculum and the level of student engagement on our platform. If a significant number of students fail to significantly improve their English proficiency after taking our lessons or if their learning experiences with us are unsatisfactory, they may not purchase additional lessons from us or refer other students to us and our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation would be adversely affected.

We may encounter disputes from time to time relating to our use of intellectual property of third parties.

We cannot be certain that third parties will not claim that our business infringes upon or otherwise violates patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights that they hold. We cannot assure you that third parties will not claim that our courses and marketing materials, online courses, products, and platform or other intellectual property developed or used by us infringe upon valid copyrights or other intellectual property rights that they hold. We may be subject to claims by educational institutions and organizations, content providers and publishers, competitors and others on the grounds of intellectual property rights infringement, defamation, negligence or other legal theories based on the content of the materials that we or our teachers distribute or use in our business operation. These types of claims have been brought, sometimes successfully, against certain risks. print publications and educational institutions in the past. We may encounter disputes from time to time over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property, and we may not prevail in those disputes.

14

Any lossesclaims against us, with or without merit, could be time consuming and liabilitiescostly to defend or litigate, divert our management’s attention and resources, or result in the loss of goodwill associated with our brand. If a lawsuit against us is successful, we may be required to pay substantial damages and/or enter into royalty or license agreements that may not be based upon commercially reasonable terms, or we may be unable to enter into such agreements at all. We may also lose, or be limited in, the rights to offer some of our programs, parts of our platform and products or be required to make changes to our course materials or websites. As a result, the scope of our course materials could be reduced, which could adversely affect the effectiveness of our curriculum, limit our ability to attract new students, harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position.

Failure to protect confidential information of our teachers and students against security breaches could damage our reputation and brand and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

A significant challenge to the online education industry is the secure storage of confidential information and its secure transmission over public networks. Other than purchases made by our corporate partners, all purchases of our course packages are made through our website and our mobile apps. In addition, online payments for our course packages are settled through third-party online payment services. Maintaining complete security for the storage and transmission of confidential information on our technology platform, such as student names, personal information and billing addresses, is essential to maintaining student confidence.

We have adopted security policies and measures to protect our proprietary data and student information. However, advances in technology, the expertise of hackers, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments could result in a compromise or breach of the technology that we use to protect confidential information. We may not be able to prevent third parties, especially hackers or other individuals or entities engaging in similar activities, from illegally obtaining such confidential or private information we hold as a result of our students’ visits to our website and use of our mobile apps. Such individuals or entities obtaining our students’ confidential or private information may further engage in various other illegal activities using such information. Any negative publicity on our website’s or mobile apps’ safety or privacy protection mechanisms and policies, and any claims asserted against us or fines imposed upon us as a result of actual or perceived failures, could have a material and adverse effect on our public image, reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

Practices regarding the collection, use, storage, transmission and security of personal information by companies operating over the internet and mobile platforms have recently come under increased public scrutiny. Increased regulation by the PRC government of data privacy on the internet is likely and we may become subject to new laws and regulations applying to the solicitation, collection, processing or use of personal or consumer information that could affect how we store and process the data of our teachers and students. We generally comply with industry standards and are subject to the terms of our own privacy policies. Compliance with any additional laws could be expensive, and may place restrictions on the conduct of our business and the manner in which we interact with our students. Any failure to comply with applicable regulations could also result in regulatory enforcement actions against us.

Significant capital and other resources may be required to protect against information security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches or to comply with our privacy policies or privacy-related legal obligations. The resources required may increase over time as the methods used by hackers and others engaged in online criminal activities are increasingly sophisticated and constantly evolving. Any failure or perceived failure by us to prevent information security breaches or to comply with privacy policies or privacy-related legal obligations, or any compromise of security that results in the unauthorized release or transfer of personally identifiable information or other student data, could cause our students to lose trust in us and could expose us to legal claims. Any perception by the public that online transactions or the privacy of user information are becoming increasingly unsafe or vulnerable to attacks could inhibit the growth of online education services generally, which may negatively impact our business prospects.

Our employees may engage in misconduct or other improper activities or misuse our platform, which could harm our reputation.

We are exposed to the risk of employee fraud or other misconduct. Employee misconduct could include intentionally failing to comply government regulations, engaging in unauthorized activities and misrepresentation to our potential students during marketing activities, which could harm our reputation. Employee misconduct could also involve improper use of our students’ and teachers’ sensitive or classified information, which could result in regulatory sanctions against us and serious harm to our reputation. Employee misconduct could also involve making payments to government officials or third parties that would expose us to being in violation of laws. It is not insuredalways possible to deter employee misconduct, and the precautions we take to prevent and detect this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses, which could harm our insurance coverage is inadequatebusiness, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to cover the entire liabilitycertain regional political and economic risks that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In

We engage teachers and operate offices mostly in North America, with some in the event that we incur substantial losses or liabilities and our insurance does not cover such losses or liabilities adequately or at all,Philippines. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

We have extendedaffected by significant loanspolitical, social and economic developments in North America and the Philippines or changes in the past that did not generate income or have fixed repayment termslaws and which may have affected our ability to do business. During fiscal 2012 and 2013, we made significant advances of cash to one of our principal shareholders who is also the Company’s current Chief Financial Officer and daughter of our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. Although all of such advances have been repaid to the Company, such advances may have detrimentally affected our ability to do business insofar that such advances represented a major portion of the Company’s then available cash. The advances to the related party were unsecured, non-interest bearing without fixed repayment terms. Although such advances are no longer being made to such related party, such advances did not generate income to the Company and may have detrimentally affected our ability to grow the business for the benefit of all of the shareholders.

We may be subject to a concentration of credit risk. During the year ended August 31, 2014, we had one customer which accounted for 15% of our total revenues and 35% of our total accounts receivable. No customer accounted for more than 10% total revenue during the year ended August 31, 2013. Although we believe our credit risk is somewhat limited due to a large customer base, there can be no assurance that we will not have a concentration of credit risk in fiscal 2015 and in future years similar to or greater than fiscal 2014.regulations. In such event, the loss of any such key customer or customers could significantly reduce our revenues, or detrimentally impact our revenues if any such key customer or customers experience financial difficulties.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong

Substantially all of our revenues to date are derived fromparticular, our operations in Hong Kong. Accordingly,and our business, financial condition,operating results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to risks of doing business in Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong legal system embodies uncertainties which could limit the legal protections available to you and us. The Hong Kong legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. The overall effect of legislation over the past approximately 25 years has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in Hong Kong. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements change frequently, and their interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. For example, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we enjoy either by law or contract. However, since Hong Kong administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. For example, these uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into. In addition, such uncertainties, including the inability to enforce our contracts, could materially and adversely affect our business and operation. In addition, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in Hong Kong may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the Hong Kong legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including our ability to enforce our agreements with our customers.

If tax benefits currently available to us in Hong Kong were no longer available, our effective income tax rates for our Hong Kong operations could increase. To date, all our net income has been generated from our Hong Kong operations. Our net income could be adversely affected by any change in the current tax laws in Hong Kong.by:

changes in policies of the government or changes in laws and regulations, or in the interpretation or enforcement of these laws and regulations;

 

measures that may be introduced to control inflation, such as interest rate increases or bank account withdrawal controls; and


changes in the tax laws and regulations.

 

Foreign Exchange Risk.While our reporting currency isIn addition, the US Dollar, our revenues, costsPhilippines has and expenses are denominated in HKD. All of our assets are denominated in HKD. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US Dollars and HKD. If the HKD depreciates against the US Dollar, the value of our HKD revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our US Dollar financial statements will decline. To date, we have not entered into any foreign exchange forward contracts or similar instruments to attempt to mitigate our exposure to change in foreign currency rates.

Future inflation in Hong Kong may inhibit our ability to conduct business profitably. In recent years, the Hong Kong economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. High inflation may in the future causeexperience political instability, including strikes, demonstrations, protests, marches, or other types of civil disorder. These instabilities and any adverse changes in the Hong Kong governmentpolitical environment in the Philippines could increase our costs, increase our exposure to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in Hong Kong, and thereby harm the market for our services.

It will be extremely difficult to acquire jurisdiction and enforce liabilities against our officers, directors and assets based in Hong Kong. Substantially all of our assets will be located in Hong Kong and our officers and our present directors reside outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for United States investors to enforce their legal rights, to effect service of process upon our directors or officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties of our directors and officers under Federal securities laws. 

We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controlsbusiness risks, disrupt our office operations in Hong Kong, which could impair our planning processes and make it difficult to provide accurate reports of our operating results. Although we will be required to implement internal controls, we may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in Hong Kong in these areas. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing the required controls, making it difficult for management to forecast its needs and to present the results of our operations accurately at all times. If we are unable to establish the required controls, market makers may be reluctant to make a market in our stock and investors may be reluctant to purchase our stock, which would make it difficult for you to sell any shares of common stock that you may ownPhilippines or acquire.

Because our funds are held in banks which do not provide insurance, the failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could affect our ability to continueengage teachers. We engage our teachers in business. the Philippines as independent contractors, whose rights are different from those of employees. Under Philippine labor laws, the level and extent of control exercised by the hiring entity would determine the employment status. Our labor costs will increase if we engage our teachers in the Philippines as full-time employees or if courts or relevant authorities in the Philippines determine that our teachers are deemed employees.

Risks Related to Our Stockholders and Purchasing Shares of Common Stock

Your percentage of ownership may become diluted if we issue new Common Stock or other securities, including shares that are eligible for exchange.Banks

Our board of directors is authorized, without your approval, to cause us to issue additional Common Stock to raise capital through the issuance of Common Stock (including equity or debt securities convertible into Common Stock), and other financial institutionsrights, on terms and for consideration as our board of directors in Hong Kong do not provide insurance for funds held on deposit. As aits sole discretion may determine. Any such issuance could result in dilution of the eventequity of our shareholders. We also have 1,207,885,627 as of August 31, 2022 shares that are still exchangeable from Quality Online Education Group Inc, an Ontario company, and our subsidiary, which could cause us to issue 1,207,885,627 new shares of QOEG common stock, which would further dilute our current shareholders and any investors in this Offering

We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures.

Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has 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 bank failure, we mayCode of Ethics. Our Board of Directors expects to adopt a Code of Ethics at its next Board meeting. The Company has not have access to fundsadopted exchange-mandated corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not listed on deposit. Depending upon the amount of money we maintain in a bank that fails, our inability to have access to our cash could impair our operations, and, ifnational securities exchange, we are not ablerequired to access fundsdo so. It is possible that if we were to payadopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, 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 to our employeessenior officers and other creditors, werecommendations for director nominees may be unable to continuemade by a majority of directors who have an interest in business.the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and Our Status as a Public Company

We will incur significant costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance requirements, including establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting, and we may be exposed to potential risks if we are unablerelating to comply with these requirements. As a public company we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, together with rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable market regulators. These rules impose various requirements on public companies, including requiring certain corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these requirements. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In particular, we must perform system and process evaluations and testing of our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, as requiredreporting.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Compliance with SectionAct of 2002 (“SOX 404”), the SEC has adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual reports. While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by SOX 404, may requirethere is a risk that we incur substantial accounting expenses and expend significant management efforts.will not comply with all of the requirements imposed thereby. At present, there is no precedent available with which to measure compliance adequately. In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting that we cannot remediate in a timely manner, the market price of our stock could decline if investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and weour ability to obtain equity or debt financing could suffer.

We have many authorized but unissued shares of our common stock.

We have a large number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which our management may issue without further stockholder approval, thereby causing dilution of your holdings of our common stock. Our management will continue to have broad discretion to issue shares of our common stock in a range of transactions, including capital-raising transactions, mergers, acquisitions, and other transactions, without obtaining stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is required. If our management determines to issue shares of our common stock from the large pool of authorized but unissued shares for any purpose in the future, your ownership position would be diluted without your further ability to vote on that transaction.

Shares of our common stock may continue to be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other applicable regulatory authorities.illiquidity because our shares may continue to be thinly traded and may never become eligible for trading on a national securities exchange.

Currently, none of our employees, including our Chief Financial Officer, who is responsible for preparing and supervising the preparation of our financial statements, have any formal training in U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations. In that regard,While we rely exclusively on our independent accountants and our outside counsel for advice with respect to U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations. Therefore, there is a risk that our current of future financial statements may not be properly prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or that our current or future disclosures are not in compliance with SEC rules and regulations.


In addition, because of recent failures of Chinese businesses and losses sustained by public investors, we are likely to encounter a heightened level of scrutiny from regulators, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, diverting our management’s attention and increasing our costs.

Our management is not familiar with the United States securities laws.Our management is generally unfamiliar with the requirements of the United States securities laws, which could adversely impact our ability to comply with legal, regulatory, and reporting requirements of those laws. Our management may notat some point be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner to adequately respond to such legal, regulatory and reportingmeet the requirements including the establishment and maintenance of internal control over financial reporting. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, which are necessary to maintain public company status, and could result in investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and other regulatory authorities that could be costly, divert management’s attention and disrupt our business, If we were to fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to operate as a public company would be in jeopardy, in which event you could lose your entire investment in our company.

There is a limited public trading market for our common stock which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity. There has been a limited trading market for our common stock in the past and there canto be no assurance that a trading market in our shares of common stock will further develop and be sustained. There were no reported trades in our common stock during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2012 and 2013. The first reported trade in fiscal 2014 occurred on November 15, 2013. The trading market for securities of companies quoted on the OTCQB or other quotation systems is substantially less liquid than the average trading market for companies listed on a national securities exchange. The quotation of our shares on the OTCQB or other quotation system may result inexchange, we cannot assure you that we will ever achieve a less liquid market available for existing and potential shareholders to trade shareslisting of our common stock could depresson a national securities exchange. Our shares will only be eligible for quotation on the OTC Markets, which is not an exchange. Initial listing on a national securities exchange is subject to a variety of requirements, including minimum trading price and minimum public “float” requirements, and could also be affected by the general skepticism of such markets concerning companies that are the result of mergers with inactive, publicly-held companies. There are also continuing eligibility requirements for companies listed on public trading markets. If we are unable to satisfy the initial or continuing eligibility requirements of any such market, then our stock may not be listed or could be delisted. This could result in a lower trading price for our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on ourmay limit your ability to raise capital in the future.

Since our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of two millionsell your shares, of “blank-check” preferred stock, our Board of Directors will have authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stock holders and with the ability to adversely affect stockholder voting power and perpetuate the board's control over our company.Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock,any of which none have been issued to date. could result in you losing some or all of your investments.

The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the board of directors without further action by stockholders. These terms may include preferences as to dividends and liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption rights and sinking fund provisions. The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holdersmarket valuation of our common stock,business may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control and therefore could reduce the value of your investment may fluctuate correspondingly.

In addition, specific rights grantedas us, frequently fluctuate due to future holdersfactors unrelated to the past or present operating performance of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assetssuch companies. Our market valuation may fluctuate significantly in response to a third party. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or effect a change-in-control, which in turn could prevent our stockholders from recognizing a gain in the event that a favorable offer is extended and could materially and negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

We may, in the future, issue additional shares of our common stock, which would reduce investors' percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.Our Certificate of Incorporation was recently amended to increase the number of shares of common stock which we are authorized to issue from 50,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 36,704,789 shares are issued and outstanding as of February 10, 2015. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

The price of our common stock may be adversely impacted by developments applicable to other Chinese companies. There has been substantial press regarding certain Chinese companies that have apparently engaged in frauds and deceptive practices resulting in significant losses to investors. Such activities and the resulting negative press has had a negative impact on the prices of the stocks of Chinese companies generally. There is no guarantee that such that such activities will not continue causing investors to avoid buying our stock. Such activities could have a depressive impact on the price of our common stock.


Increased scrutiny of Chinese companies by short-sellers.The fraudulent activities of certain Chinese issuers have encouraged analysts to investigate Chinese companies in an effort to discredit the disclosures in their public filings or otherwise uncover deceptive practices. If such analysts elect to investigate a company they will often short the stock and release materials disparaging the issuer or questioning the accuracy of its public disclosures. Given the current environment for Chinese stocks, if an analyst were to publish a negative article about us, it could cause an immediate and substantial decline in the price of our stock, regardless of the accuracy of the claims in the article.

The market price of our common stock can become volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you may want to sell your holdings. The market price of our common stock can become volatile. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:including:

Recently adopted SEC rules prohibit a reverse acquisition company from listing on a national securities exchange until the company has beenpay any dividends in the U.S. over-the-counterforeseeable future. Investors should not look to dividends as a source of income.

In the interest of reinvesting initial profits back into our business, we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, any economic return will initially be derived, if at all, from appreciation in the fair market or on another regulated U.S. or foreign exchange for at least one complete fiscal year. Recently adopted SEC rules seek to improve the reliabilityvalue of the reported financial results of reverse acquisition companies by requiring a pre-listing “seasoning period” during which the post-reverse acquisition public company must produce financial and other information in connection with its required SEC filings. The company also must maintain a requisite minimum share price for at least 30 of the most recent 60 trading days prior to the date of the initial listing application and the date of listing on any national securities exchange. By virtue of such rules it is unlikely that we will be eligible to list on a national securities exchange for at least one year following the Acquisition of Almonds Kisses BVI, and only if our stock, trades above the requisite minimum price in accordance with the listing requirementsand not as a result of the applicable national securities exchange.dividend payments.

Penny Stock Regulations

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is a “penny stock” and is subject to Rule 15g-9 underwithin the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell anydiscretion of our securities in the secondary market, thus possibly making it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.board of directors.

ForOptions and Warrants

We do not have any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.outstanding options or warrants.

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

Rule 144

Prior to completion of the Transaction, we were considered a shell company. As a result, we are subject to the provisions of Rule 144(i) which limit reliance on Rule 144 by shareholders owning stock in a shell company. Under current interpretations, unregistered shares issued after we first became a shell company cannot be resold under Rule 144 until the following conditions were met:

¨

we ceased to be a shell company;

¨

we remained subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations;

¨

we filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding 12 months; and

¨

at least one year had elapsed from the time we filed “Form 10 information” reflecting the fact that we had ceased to be a shell company.

Dividends

We have never paid a dividend on our Common Stock and we currently intend to retain earnings for use in our business to finance operations and growth. Any future determination as to the distribution of cash dividends will depend upon our earnings and financial position at that time and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Plan of Operations

Going Concern

Our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this offering circular have been prepared on a Hong Kong corporationgoing concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is an 80% owned subsidiary, and Dynamic Golden Limited,contingent upon its ability to raise additional capital as required. For the year ended August 31, 2022, the Company incurred net losses of ($3,790,411). Initially, we intend to finance our operations through equity financings.

Our auditors have indicated that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a Hong Kong corporation which until November 19, 2013 was 30% owned by ADGS Tax Advisory Limited and has since been 30% owned by Almonds Kisses Limited (BVI). Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendmentgoing concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

There are no external sources of liquidity.

Financings and Securities Offerings

Investing Activities.

Since inception, our principal sources of operating funds have been proceeds from equity financing including the sale of our Common Stock to initial investors known to management and principal shareholders of the Company. We do not expect that our current cash on hand will fund our existing operations. We will need to raise additional capital in order execute our business plan and growth goals for at least the next twelve-month period thereafter. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional funds, it will have to execute a slower than planned growth path, reduce overhead and scale back its Certificatebusiness plan until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operational expansion and growth. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Quality Online Education Group, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Quality Online Education Group, Inc. as of August 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to ouropinion, the financial statements we believepresent fairly, in all material respects, the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures for a fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements have been included. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulationsposition of the SecuritiesCompany as of August 31, 2022 and Exchange Commission2021, and do not include all informationthe results of its operations and footnotes necessaryits cash flows for a complete presentation of financial statementsthe years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

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

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

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


Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the years. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount and the estimated useful lives of long-live assets; valuation allowances for receivables, and realizable values for inventories. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

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

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

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

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

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

Intangible assets

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

-

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;

-

significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;

-

identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;

-

disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;

-

significant negative industry or economic trends;

The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.

Goodwill

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment based on its identified reporting units, which are defined as reportable segments or groupings of businesses one level below the reportable segment level. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further quantitative impairment testing is necessary.

In accordance with the guidance, the Company reviews goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances made it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value of its reporting units, determined using externally quoted prices (if available) or a discounted cash flow model and, when deemed necessary, a market approach. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, but are not limited to, such estimates as projected business results, growth rates, the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital, royalty and discount rates.


Income taxes

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

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

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

The Company recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. As of August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.

Economic and political risks

The major operations of the Company are conducted in Hong Kong, the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in Hong Kong, the PRC, as well as the general state of Hong Kong’s economy may influence the business, financial condition, and results of operations of the Company.

Among other risks, the Company's operations are subject to the risks of restrictions on: changing taxation policies; and political conditions and governmental regulations.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360).” ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2014-12). The guidance applies to all reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. For all entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-12 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (ASU 2014-15).

The guidanceaccompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management's responsibilityNote 2 to evaluate whether there isthe financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about an entity'sthe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparingconcern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for one yeardo not include any adjustments that might result from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management's plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoptionoutcome of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.uncertainty.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statementsBasis for Opinion

Trends and Uncertainties

Insofar that our revenues are mainly derived from providing professional services to our clients under fixed-fee billing arrangements, the number of clients we have at any given time and the fees billed are the Company’s key uncertainties. The recent growth in revenues was primarily due to the acquisition of customer lists and client bases in 2011, 2013 and 2014; and, therefore, we cannot be certain that this growth represents a trend which will continue although we have recently made acquisitions and we plan to make additional acquisitions in the upcoming years and we are regularly exploring such opportunities which may benefit our business and increase our revenues. In the future, we expect that we will seek to purchase other customer lists and client bases as part of our overall growth strategy, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to do any of the foregoing on terms which will be acceptable to us.

Other key uncertainties include our high leverage and highly variable interest expense. To date, we have significantly relied upon debt financings to fund our operations. At August 31, 2013 (audited) and August 31, 2014 (audited), we had outstanding bank loans (excluding bank overdrafts) in the principal amount of $2,286,785 and $4,126,739, respectively. We also had bank overdrafts of $253,738 as of August 31, 2014. Interest expense from bank loans and overdrafts (excluding capital lease interest) for the year ended August 31, 2014 was $129,738 and for year ended August 31, 2013 was $151,872. Such loans are primarily term loans with maturity dates ranging from November 2014 to October 2037. Approximately $2 million of the bank loans are to be repaid over the next five years. While we have begun to achieve profitable operations during fiscal 2014, there can be no assurance that such profitability will continue or that revenues from our operations will be able to service these debt obligations. See “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this report for further discussion of these uncertainties and others.

Principal Components of Our Income Statement

Revenue

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


Operating expenses

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

Direct cost of revenue

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

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses include advertising and exhibitions, computer fee, depreciation of property and equipment, motor vehicles, rent, rates and building management fee and other miscellaneous expenses related to our administrative activities.

Our operating expenses are positively correlated to our revenue, and with the anticipated expansion of our Company, we anticipate the absolute dollars of the operating expenses will increase accordingly.

Other comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income reflects foreign currency translation adjustment according to our accounting policies.

Our business for the Y2014 expanded rapidly. We recorded revenues of $6.2 million for Y2014, representing an increase of $2.9 million as compared to the results of $3.2 million for Y2013. The increase was primarily due to the increase of revenue stream multi-disciplinary advisory services and a steady growth in accounting and corporate services.

Other expense represents the interest expense for the bank loans and overdraft of $129,738 and $151,872 in Y2014 and Y2013 respectively. The decrease in the amount is mainly caused by the decrease in bank overdrafts of $0.25m made to the Company in Y2014.

Other comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income represents the foreign currency translation gain of $239 and foreign currency translation loss of $10,380 in Y2014 and the Y2013 respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities was $670,294 for the year ended August 31, 2014, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1,208,913 for the year ended August 31, 2013. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was mainly due to a net profit of $1,331,194, plus accrued liabilities and other payables of $192,635 and income tax payable of $433,483, offset by accounts receivable of $(896,467), other receivables of $(1,842,599) and prepaid expenses of $(187,462). The increase in fiscal 2013 was mainly due to a net profit of $647,625, deferred revenue of $580,241, accrued liabilities and other payables of $192,075 and income tax payable of $152,300, offset by accounts receivable of $(564,561) and other receivables of $(130,786).

Material investment activities

On August 20, 2014, the Company acquired 2% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Elite Global Group Limited (incorporated in Hong Kong) (“Elite Global”) from one of the then two shareholders of Elite Global for the sum of approximately $2,000,000 (HK $15,000,000) payable by the transfer of certain receivables due to a subsidiary of the Company. Elite Global has entered into a Preliminary Development Agreement with Viacom Media Networks to construct and establish a new entertainment theme park in the PRC. Elite Global is expected to submit a development plan for Viacom’s approval and then obtain a license to operate the theme park. The Company is not aware of the proposed timeframe for completion of the foregoing. In addition, Elite Global is a party to a Joint Venture Agreement with Simson Giftware which operates and manufactures merchandise for theme stores in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the agreement with the seller of the shares, the Company retains the right to request the seller to buy back all or part of the shares purchased at $2,000,000 or such proportionate amount, if any, after August 20, 2015. In view of the potential from this business, the Company acquired such 2% stock interest in Elite Global and is looking for a satisfactory return in the near future.

The Company had bank loans with outstanding principal of $4.1 million as of August 31, 2014 and $2.3 million as of August 31, 2013. Summary of total bank loans is as follows:

Material capital expenditure commitments

We anticipate that we will require a high level of capital expenditure in the foreseeable future to fund our future growth. We intend to fund our capital expenditures and future acquisitions out of internal sources of liquidity and/or through access to additional financing from external sources. On July 30, 2014, we entered into a Customer List Purchase Agreement (the “July 2014 Purchase Agreement”) with Lau Kam George and Yung Chi Shing (collectively, the “Sellers”) pursuant to which we have agreed to acquire from the Sellers the customer list of the accounting advisory business of the Sellers operating under the name of Acorate Advisory Limited and Berfield Enterprise Solutions and Technology Limited, located in Hong Kong. In consideration for the acquisition of the customer list, we have agreed to pay the Sellers the sum of approximately $1.5 million (HK $12.0 million) and 5,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company. Such amount is to be paid as follows: (i) approximately $258,000 (HK $2.0 million ) upon signing of the July 2014 Purchase Agreement which amount has been paid, (ii) approximately $387,000 (HK $3.0 million ) on or before March 30, 2015, and (iii) the balance of the purchase price of approximately $903,000 (HK $7.0 million ) in 18 monthly installments commencing one month after closing. The shares of common stock are to be issued at closing. The closing is expected to occur on or before March 30, 2015. Following the closing, the amount of the aggregate purchase price will be adjusted based upon revenues achieved in the 14 months period following the closing. Subsequent to the year ended August 31, 2014, and in January 2015, we paid half of the second installment described above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to shareholders.

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

We may be exposed to interest rate risk in relation to the bank loans we maintain. The interest rate risk is managed by the Directors of the Company on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of limiting the extent to which interest expense could be affected by adverse movement in interest rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s post-tax profit for the year ended August 31, 2014 would increase/decrease by $36,577 as compared with the combined post-tax profit for the year ended August 31, 2013.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

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

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

See the Financial Statements annexed to this report.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Effective as of June 23, 2014, the Company engaged UHY Vocation HK CPA Limited (“UHY HK”) as its principal independent accountants to audit the financial statements of the Company. UHY HK replaces Union Power HK CPA Limited (“Union Power HK”), which firm resigned as the principal independent accountants of the Company effective as of June 23, 2014. The decision to accept the resignation of Union Power HK and engage UHY HK as the Company’s principal independent accountants was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years preceding the dismissal of the former accountants and any subsequent interim period preceding the date hereof, there were no disagreements with the former accountants 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 the former accountants, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years preceding the dismissal of the former accountants and any subsequent interim period preceding the date hereof, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.


Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of August 31, 2014, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

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

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes using the COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to identify the risks and control objectives related to the evaluation of our control environment.

Currently, none of our employees, including our Chief Financial Officer, who is responsible for preparing and supervising the preparation of our financial statements, have any formal training in U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations. In that regard, we rely exclusively on our independent accountants and our outside counsel for advice with respect to U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations. Therefore, there is a risk that our current of future financial statements may not be properly prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or that our current or future disclosures are not in compliance with SEC rules and regulations.

Based on our evaluation under the frameworks described above and in light of the significant deficiency described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of August 31, 2014. Management intends to mitigate the risk of such deficiency going forward by having our Chief Financial Officer and other personnel continue to work with our auditors and other outside advisors to ensure that our control processes and procedures are adequate and effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation requirements by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN

The Company’s ability to continue operating as a “going concern” is dependent on its ability to increase revenues and raise sufficient additional working capital. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

We have had no “disagreements” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with our Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and 2013Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded such controls and procedures to be ineffective as of August 31, 2021, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15 (f) and 15d- 15 (f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.

Our internal control over financial reporting is the process designed by and under the supervision of our CEO, or the persons performing similar functions, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the consolidated resultspreparation of its operations and its consolidated cash flowsour financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013,external reporting in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO, or the persons performing similar functions, our management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2022, and concluded that it is not effective because of the material weakness described below:

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2022, due to resource constraints, material weaknesses became evident to management regarding our lack of resources and segregation of duties. The Company has not established an audit committee and lacks documentation of its internal control process. A material weakness is a significant deficiency in one or more of the internal control components that alone or in the aggregate precludes our internal controls from reducing to an appropriately low level the risk that material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

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

Evaluation of Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We intend to recruit additional professionals, as our business conditions warrant, to ensure that we include all necessary disclosure in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe that these corrective steps will enable management to conclude that the internal controls over our financial reporting are effective when the staff is in place and trained, we cannot provide assurance that these steps will be sufficient. We may be required to expend additional resources to identify, assess and correct any additional weaknesses in internal control.

25

Important Considerations

The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN US DOLLARS)

1.

Description of business and organization

Nature of operations

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

On December 7, 2012, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Original Exchange Agreement”) with ADGS Advisory Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“ADGS Hong Kong”) and ADGS Advisory (Holding) Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“ADGS Holding”). Pursuant to the Original Exchange Agreement, at the closingfamily member of the transaction contemplated thereunder (the “ADGS Transaction”), the Company agreed to acquire 100%director is a partner in, controlling shareholder of, the issued and outstanding capital stockor an executive officer of ADGS Hong Kong, making ADGS Holding a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Original Exchange Agreement (the Original Exchange Agreement, as amended is referred to herein as the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuantentity to which the Company agreed to acquire allcompany made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the outstanding shares of Almonds Kisses Limited (BVI), a British Virgin Islands company (“Almonds Kisses BVI”), from the eight shareholders of Almonds Kisses BVI (the “Shareholders”), insteadpast three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the sharesrecipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exemptions;

the director or a family member of ADGS Holding,the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three (3) years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the same terms and conditions set forth in compensation committee of such other entity; or

the Exchange Agreement. Almonds Kisses BVI is the owner of 100%director or a family member of the issueddirector is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three (3) years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and outstanding capital stockwho worked on the company’s audit.

Under such definitions, we have no independent directors. However, our Common Stock is not currently quoted or listed on any national exchange or interdealer quotation system with a requirement that a majority of our Board be independent and, therefore, the Company is not subject to any director independence requirements.

Family Relationships

There are no additional family members serving as Officers and Directors of the Company.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

During the past five years none of our directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons was:

1)the subject of ADGS Hong Kong. The Original Exchange Agreement incorrectly indicatedany bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that such owner was ADGS Holding which error was correctedtime;

2)convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

3)subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or

4)found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Amendment.Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

28

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board plans to adopt a written code of business conduct and ethics (“Code”) that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We intend to post on our website a current copy of the Code and all disclosures that are required by law in regard to any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this offering circular have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

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

Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount and the estimated useful lives of long-live assets; valuation allowances for receivables, and realizable values for inventories. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

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

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

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

The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

 Estimated Life

Property held for sale and used

Over the unexpired term of the lease

Leasehold improvement

5 years

Furniture and fixtures

5 years

Office equipment

5 years

Motor vehicles

Intangible assets

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

-

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;

-

significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;

-

identification of other impaired assets within a reporting unit;

-

disposition of a significant portion of an operating segment;

-

significant negative industry or economic trends;

The intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over a period of 10 years.ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

GoodwillDESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment based on its identified reporting units, which are defined as reportable segments or groupings of businesses one level below the reportable segment level. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further quantitative impairment testing is necessary.

In accordance with the guidance, the Company reviews goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances made it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value of its reporting units, determined using externally quoted prices (if available) or a discounted cash flow model and, when deemed necessary, a market approach. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, but are not limited to, such estimates as projected business results, growth rates, the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital, royalty and discount rates.

Other investment

Investee companies not accounted for under the consolidation or the equity method of accounting are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Under this method, the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of such Investee companies is not included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet or Statement of Operations. However, impairment charges are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. If circumstances suggest that the value of the Investee company has subsequently recovered, such recovery is not recorded.

When a cost method Investee company initially qualifies for use of the equity method, the Company’s carrying value is adjusted for the Company’s share of the past results of the Investee’s operations. Therefore, prior losses could significantly decrease the Company’s carrying value in that Investee company at that time.

Other investment represents a 2% holding of ordinary shares of a company incorporated in Hong Kong. The Company acquired the other investment which is initially measured at cost (i.e., the purchase price). The other investment is subsequently carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. When investment is retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated impairment losses are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the reporting period of disposition.

The Company follows Subtopic 325-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to account for its ownership interest in non-controlled entities, particularly foreign. Under ASC 325-20, investments of this nature are initially recorded at cost. Income is recorded for dividends received that are distributed from net accumulated earnings of the investee subsequent to the date of investment. Dividends received in excess of earnings subsequent to the date of investment are considered a return of investment and are recorded as reductions in the cost of the investment. Investments are written down only when there is clear evidence that a decline in value that is other than temporary has occurred.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company evaluates when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets to be held and used might not be recoverable, the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the assets are estimated and compared with the carrying amount of the assets. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows was less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss would be recorded. The impairment loss would be measured on a location by location basis by comparing the fair value of the asset with its carrying amount. Long-lived assets that are held for disposal are reported at the lower of the assets’ carrying amount or fair value less costs related to the assets’ disposition. No impairment has been recognized.

Assets under capital lease

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

Summary of significant accounting policies (…/Cont’d)

Comprehensive income

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

Earnings per share

Basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options.

Income taxes

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

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

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

The Group recognizes interest and penalty related to income tax matters as income tax expense. For the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, there was no penalty or interest recognized as income tax expenses.

Employee benefits

i)

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

ii)

Contributions to appropriate local contribution retirement schemes pursuant to the relevant labor rules and regulations in Hong Kong which are charged to the cost of sales and general and administrative expenses in the statement of operation as and when the related employee service is provided. The Group incurred $30,388 and $24,614 for the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively.

Fair value measurements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU 2010-06” “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. The new guidance clarifies two existing disclosure requirements and requires two new disclosures as follows: (1) a “gross” presentation of activities (purchases, sales, and settlements) within the Level 3 rollforward reconciliation, which will replace the “net” presentation format; and (2) detailed disclosures about the transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 measurements. This guidance is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the gross presentation of the Level 3 rollforward information, which is required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim reporting periods thereafter. The Company adopted the amended fair value disclosures guidance on January 1, 2012. As of August 31, 2014 and 2013, none of the Company’s financial assets or liabilities was measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of August 31, 2014 and 2013, none of the Company’s non-financial assets or liabilities was measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets, bank loans, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities and other payables, are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available. It is not practicable to estimate the fair values of advance to and advance from related parties because of the related party nature of such advances.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company has four (4) reportable business segments: accounting and corporate services, corporate restructuring and insolvency, multi-disciplinary advisory and corporate and other income. The Company evaluates performance based on net operating profit. Administrative functions are centralized however, where applicable, portions of the administrative function expenses are allocated between the operating segments. In the event any services are provided to one operating segment by the other, the transaction is valued according to the company’s transfer policy, which approximates market price. The administrative expenses are captured discretely within each segment. The Company’s property and equipment, and accounts receivable are captured and reported discretely within each operating segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360)." ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. . The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2014-12). The guidance applies to all reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. For all entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-12 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (…/Cont’d)

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (ASU 2014-15). The guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management's plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to the year ended August 31, 2014, 1,366,984 shares of Common Stock were issued to ten shareholders in the aggregate which shares were issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation S thereunder. All investors represented and warranted that they were non-U.S. persons with the meaning of Regulation S.

As of August 31, 2014, there is subscription receivable of $3,092,458. Of such amount $64,515 (approximately HK$500,000) has been received subsequent to August 31, 2014 and prior to the issuance of this report.

See Note 26 for information on the agreement entered into on July 30, 2014 to acquire a client customer base from a third party for consideration of approximately about $1,548,367 (equivalent to HK$12 million) plus 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The consideration is payable as follows: (i) a first installment of $258,061 (equivalent to HK $2 million) which was paid upon signing of the Agreement, (ii) a second installment of $387,092 (equivalent to HK$3 million), and a remaining balance payable in eighteen monthly installments of $50,322 (equivalent to HK$390,000 each) commencing one month after closing. The closing is expected to occur on or before March 30, 2015. Subsequent to the year ended August 31, 2014, and in January 2015, the Company paid half of the second installment.
