HOTAPP BLOCKCHAIN INC. (FORMERLY KNOWN AS HOTAPP INTERNATIONAL, INC.)
 
NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Note 1. The Company History and Nature of the Business
 
HotApp Blockchain Inc., formerly HotApp International, Inc., (the “Company” or “Group”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 7, 2012 and established a fiscal year end of December 31. The Company’s initial business plan was to be a financial acquisition intermediary which would serve buyers and sellers for companies that are in highly fragmented industries. The Company determined it was in the best interest of the shareholders to expand its business plan. On October 15, 2014, through a sale and purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of HotApps International Pte Ltd (“HIP”) from Singapore eDevelopment Limited (“SeD”). HIP owned certain intellectual property relating to instant messaging for portable devices (“HotApp”). HotApp is a cross-platform mobile application that incorporates instant messaging and ecommerce. It provides a messaging and calling services for HotApp users (text, photo, audio). Started from a cross platform mobile application that incorporate messaging and eCommerce, HotApp has evolved as a platform Service provider with application framework serving vertical industry such as multilevel Marketing. The messaging and calling services has been terminated in 2017. HotApp can be used on any mobile platform (i.e. IOS Online or Android). On January 1, 2018, the Company’s new subsidiary, Crypto Exchange Inc., issued 1,000 shares of its common stock to the Company.

These financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable for a going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Since inception, the Company has incurred net losses of $5,197,609$5,400,306 and has net working capital deficit of $908,402$979,688 at March 31,June 30, 2018. Management has concluded that due to the conditions described above, there is substantial doubt about the entities ability to continue as a going concern through May 15,July 30, 2019. We have evaluated the significance of the conditions in relation to our ability to meet our obligations and believe that our current cash balance along with our current operations will not provide sufficient capital to continue operation through 2018. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon achieving sales growth, the management of operating expenses and the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and upon profitable operations.
 
Our majority shareholder has advised us not to depend solely on itthem for financing. We have increased our efforts to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings from other sources. However, we cannot be certain that such capital (from our shareholders or third parties) will be available to us or whether such capital will be available on terms that are acceptable to us. Any such financing likely would be dilutive to existing stockholders and could result in significant financial operating covenants that would negatively impact our business. If we are unable to raise sufficient additional capital on acceptable terms, we will have insufficient funds to operate our business or pursue our planned growth.
 
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.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues, cost and expenses in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, the useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and share-based compensation.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
 
Foreign currency risk
 
Because of its foreign operations, the Company holds cash in non-US dollars. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents of the Group includes, on an as converted basis to US dollars $53,694, $7,047$47,228, $14,623 and $12,738$19,089 in Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”), Reminbi (“RMB”) and Singapore Dollars (“S$”), respectively.
 
The Renminbi (“RMB”) is not a freely convertible currency. The State Administration for Foreign Exchange, under the authority of the People’s Bank of China, controls the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies. The value of the RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market.
 
Concentration of credit risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash. Although the cash at each particular bank in the United States is insured up to $250,000 by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Group exposes to credit risk due to its concentration of cash in foreign countries. The Group places their cash with financial institutions with high-credit ratings and quality. The Group also exposes to credit risk due to its concentration for customers with revenue in excess of 10%.
 
Fixed assets, net
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
 
Office equipment3 years
Computer equipment3 years
Furniture and fixtures3 years
Motor vehicles10 years
 
Fair value
 
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.
 

Revenue recognition
 
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. Under the new standard, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method to all contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018 and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements but we expanded our disclosures related to contracts with customers below.
 

Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of the promised goods or services to its customers. Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.
 
Disaggregation of Revenue
 
We generate revenue from the project involving provision of services and web/software development to customers. In respect to the provision of services, the agreement span over the length of one year with cancellable clause and are typically billed on a monthly basis. The following table depicts the disaggregation of revenue according to revenue type and is consistent with how we evaluate our financial performance:

Contract assets and contract liabilities
 
Based on our contracts, we normally invoice customers once our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional.
 
Remaining performance obligations
 
As of March 31,June 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligation is $3,092,$15,308, and the Group will recognize this revenue as the softwareweb development is completed, which is expected to occur over the next 3 months.
 
Research and development expenses
 
Research and development expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, and (ii) office rental, general expenses and depreciation expenses associated with the research and development activities. The Company’s research and development activities primarily consist of the research and development of new features for its mobile platform and its self-developed mobile games. Expenditures incurred during the research phase are expensed as incurred.
 
Income taxes
 
Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Net operating loss carry forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as non-current based on their characteristics.

 
The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Interest and penalties on income taxes will be classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes. The Group did not recognize any income tax due to uncertain tax position or incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses for the years ended December 31, 2017 or 2016, respectively.
 
Uncertainties exist with respect to the application of the New EIT Law to our operations, specifically with respect to our tax residency. The New EIT Law specifies that legal entities organized outside of the PRC will be considered residents for PRC income tax purposes if their “de facto management bodies” as “establishments that carry on substantial and overall management and control over the operations, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of the Company.” Because of the uncertainties that have resulted from limited PRC guidance on the issue, it is uncertain whether our legal entities outside the PRC constitute residents under the New EIT Law. If one or more of our legal entities organized outside the PRC were characterized as PRC residents, the impact would adversely affect our results of operations.'

 
Foreign currency translation
 
The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). The financial records of the Company’s subsidiaries located in Singapore, Hong Kong and the PRC are maintained in their local currencies, the Singapore Dollar (S$), Hong Kong Dollar (HK$) and Renminbi ("RMB"), which are also the functional currencies of these entities.
 
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statement of operations.
 
The Company’s entities with functional currency of Renminbi, Hong Kong Dollar and Singapore Dollar, translate their operating results and financial positions into the U.S. dollar, the Company’s reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of comprehensive income (loss).
 
For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, the Company recorded other comprehensive loss from translation lossgain of $59,452$68,663 in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Operating leases
 
Leases where the rewards and risks of ownership of assets primarily remain with the lessor are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.
 
Comprehensive income (loss)
 
Comprehensive income (loss) includes gains (losses) from foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income (loss) is reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
 
Loss per share
 
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
 
The Company's convertible preferred shares are not participating securities and have no voting rights until converted to common stock. As of March 31,June 30, 2018, no shares of preferred stock are eligible for conversion into voting common stock.
 
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The updated standard is effective for us beginning on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
On Feb. 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (the Update). The new leasing standard presents dramatic changes to the balance sheets of lessees. Lessor accounting is updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
 
In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, or ASU 2018-02, which requires the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects arising from the change in the reduction of the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate to 21% from 35%. ASU 2018-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt ASU 2018-02 on January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-02 will result in a reclassification between accumulated other comprehensive income and retained earnings.

Background
 
HotApp Blockchain Inc., formerly HotApp International, Inc., (the “Company” or “Group”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 7, 2012 and established a fiscal year end of December 31.

The Company determined it was in the best interest of the shareholders to expand its business plan. On October 15, 2014, through a sale and purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of HotApps International Pte Ltd (the “HIP”) from Singapore eDevelopment Limited (“SeD”). HIP owned certain intellectual property relating to instant messaging for portable devices (the “HotApp”). HotApp is a cross-platform mobile application that incorporates instant messaging and ecommerce. It provides a messaging and calling services for HotApp users (text, photo, audio). Started from a cross platform mobile application that incorporate messaging and eCommerce, HotApp has evolved as a platform Service provider with application framework serving vertical industry such as multilevel Marketing.

With the restructuring efforts in 2016, HotApp has reduced its expense runway significantly and had revamped its business model and technology platform to focus on business-to-business (“B2B”) services, built around enterprise communications and workflow. Its product line will target these industries: (i) network and direct marketing; (ii) enterprise Voice-over-IP; (iii) enterprise messaging; and (iv) e-commerce. This strategic shift is intended to create commercial value with a sharper focus.
 

 
Our Business
 
HotApp Blockchain Inc.The Company is positioned as a software development servicetechnology platform serving Business to Business (B2B) needs in eCommerce, collaboration and project management company specializing in Voice over IP (VoIP), enterprise messaging and eCommerce. We recently moved up our technology coverage into blockchain platform architecture and systems development.
Through previous project management, HotApp Blockchain Inc.supply chain. The Company has built a number of reusable application modules and framework. These properties will help enterprises and community users to transform their business model within the digital economy in a more effective manner. With our platform, users can discover and build their own communities and create valuable content. Our platform tools empower these communities to share their thoughts and words across multiple channels. As these communities grow, they provide the critical mass that attracts enterprises. Enterprises in turn enhance user experience with premium contents,content, all of which are facilitated by the transactions of every stakeholder via e-commerce.
 
Trends in the Market and Our Opportunity
 
Digital and mobile technologies are reshaping the B2B marketplace. We believe that this is not only a technological revolution, but also a paradigm shift in how B2B buyers consume content, make informed buying decisions, and engage with salespeople.
A report by Statista, a leading provider of market and consumer data, on B2B eCommerce in 2017 has beenestimated $2.3 trillion B2C sales online. For B2B the number of sales is $7.7 trillion with a fast changing year in technology,234.78% difference. The reasons for the embracingsignificance of digital strategy for traditional business has been well recognized and realized, resulting in high demand in enterprise messaging and collaboration services. According to a November 2016 forecast by eMarketer, a leading research company for digital business professionals, more than one-quarter of the world’s population will be using mobile messaging apps by 2019. eMarketer also projected that mobile phone messaging apps would be used by more than 1.4 billion people in 2016, an increase of almost 16% from 2015. The Asia-Pacific region is home to more than 50% of all chat app users worldwide, with more than 805 million consumers in 2016.B2B include:
 
The rise of self-service: 57% B2B customers use typical purchase process for accomplishing proactive research online.
The simplified ordering experiences: The wholesale customers on B2B portals find simplified interface compared to a number of “bells and whistles” required on the B2C e-commerce sites.
Mobile is increasingly playing a critical role in the B2B customer journey. In addition to the substantial opportunities in consumer messaging market, Enterprise Messaging and Collaboration Services and Appsfact, 50% of B2B search queries today are widely deployed in Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Large Enterprise as an alternative to Email and Intranet. This emerging need in Enterprise Messaging and Collaboration offers a huge opportunity for IT service providers in offering development, integration and white label services for SMEs and Corporations. According to Statista, global messaging platform service providers aremade on smartphones. A research report from Boston Consulting Group noted that such figure is expected to bring in US$1.8 billion revenue riding on the growth in growing demand of Enterprise Messaging.
On the other hand, a new wave of fund raising exercise has emerged - Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), exploded onto the scene in 2017, going from a relatively unknown fundraising method used in the blockchain community,grow to raising over $4 billion in 2017. ICOs have allowed blockchain startups to crowdfund their projects through the blockchain70% by issuing digital tokens, which the user can then trade, spend, and use within the blockchain platform. There is a huge demand in ICO technology consulting from startups and traditional business using smart contract and token creation to launch new business activities. (Source ICOdata: https://www.icodata.io/stats/2017)2020.
 
Based upon the above trends, we believe significant opportunities exist for:
 
Enterprises deploying messaging platformmobile platforms to effectively engage different stakeholders.

We will need to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings. However, we cannot be certain that such capital (from SED or third party) will be available to us or whether such capital will be available on terms that are acceptable to us. Any such financing likely would be dilutive to existing shareholders and could result in significant financial and operating covenants that would negatively impact our business. If we are unable to raise sufficient additional capital on acceptable terms, we will have insufficient funds to operate our business and pursue our business plan.
 
Consistent with Section 144 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, it is our current policy that all transactions between us and our officers, directors and their affiliates will be entered into only if such transactions are approved by a majority of the disinterested directors, are approved by vote of the stockholders, or are fair to us as corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the board. We will conduct an appropriate review of all related party transactions on an ongoing basis.

 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical accounting policies affect working capital account balances, including the policies for revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and income taxes. These policies require that we make estimates in the preparation of our financial statements as of a given date.
 
Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.
 
Revenue recognition
 
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. Under the new standard, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method to all contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018 and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements but we expanded our disclosures related to contracts with customers below.
 
Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of the promised goods or services to its customers. Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.
 
Disaggregation of Revenue
 
We generate revenue from the project involving provision of services and web/software development to customers. In respect to the provision of services, the agreement span over the length of one year with cancellable clause and are typically billed on a monthly basis. The following table depicts the disaggregation of revenue according to revenue type and is consistent with how we evaluate our financial performance:

Contract assets and contract liabilities
 
Based on our contracts, we normally invoice customers once our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional.
 
Remaining performance obligations
 
As of March 31,June 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligation is $3,092,$20,410, and the Group will recognize this revenue as the softwareweb development is completed, which is expected to occur over the next 3 months.

 
Research and development expenses
 
Research and development expenses primarily consist of (i) salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, and (ii) office rental, general expenses and depreciation expenses associated with the research and development activities. The Company’s research and development activities primarily consist of the research and development of new features for its mobile platform and its self-developed mobile games. Expenditures incurred during the research phase are expensed as incurred.
 
Income taxes
 
Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Net operating loss carry forwards and credits are applied using enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as non-current based on their characteristics.
 
Uncertainties exist with respect to the application of the New EIT Law to our operations, specifically with respect to our tax residency. The New EIT Law specifies that legal entities organized outside of the PRC will be considered residents for PRC income tax purposes if their “de facto management bodies” as “establishments that carry on substantial and overall management and control over the operations, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of the Company.” Because of the uncertainties resulted from limited PRC guidance on the issue, it is uncertain whether our legal entities outside the PRC constitute residents under the New EIT Law. If one or more of our legal entities organized outside the PRC were characterized as PRC residents, the impact would adversely affect our results of operations.
