PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

 

Company History

 

Madison Avenue Holdings, Inc. ("MAHI" or the “Company”) was incorporated on February 27, 2004, under the laws of the State of Delaware with the purpose of engaging in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. MAHI has been in the developmental stage since inception and its operations to date have been limited to issuing shares to its original shareholders.

 

On July 8, 2005, Acer Limited ("Acer"), a British Virgin Islands Company owned and controlled by Mr. Cesar Villavicencio which was then the  sole stockholder of MAHI, sold 475,000 shares of MAHI common stock to Mr. Alex Kam for a cash purchase price of $120,000. Such shares constituted 95% of the outstanding capital stock of MAHI. In connection with the sale, MAHI agreed that, in the event that MAHI successfully completes a merger with or acquisition of one or more business entities identified by Mr. Kam (a "Business Combination"), it will issue to Acer such number of shares of its common stock as shall, together with the 25,000 shares currently owned by Acer, constitute 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of MAHI common stock immediately following consummation of the Business Combination. Also in connection with the sale, Mr. Cesar Villavicencio resigned as sole director and Chief Executive Officer of MAHI and Mr. Kam was elected to both of those positions, making Mr. Kam MAHI's sole director and sole executive officer.

 

On May 22, 2006, Mr. Kam entered into two separate share purchase agreements with each of Mr. Pan-Rong Liu ("Liu") and Mr. Seung Chi Tang ("Tang"). Under the share purchase agreements, Mr. Kam agreed to sell 118,750 shares of Common Stock to each of Liu and Tang. The purchase price for the Shares under each share purchase agreement was $160,000 and was paid in cash. The share purchase agreements were closed on June 13, 2006. The sale of the shares to Liu and Tang was made so that Liu and Tang would have a  proprietary  stake in MAHI and assist in locating and  negotiating with one or more  business  entities  for the  combination  of that  target company or those target companies with MAHI.

 

Since 2006 MAHI has attempted to locate and negotiate with one or more business entities for the combination of that target company or those target companies with MAHI. It is anticipated that each combination will take the form of a merger, stock-for-stock exchange or stock-for-assets exchange. In most instances the target company would wish to structure the Business Combination to be within the definition of a tax-free reorganization under Section 351 or Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

No assurances can be given that MAHI will be successful in locating or negotiating with any target company.

 

MAHI has been formed to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to become a reporting company with a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

 

A Business Combination with a target company would normally involve the transfer to the target company of the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of MAHI and the substitution by the target company of its own management and board of directors for MAHI's current director and Chief Executive Officer.

 

The proposed business activities described herein classify MAHI as a "blank check" company. The Securities and Exchange Commission and certain states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the public sale of securities of blank check companies. MAHI does not intend to make any efforts to cause a market to develop in its securities until such time as MAHI has successfully implemented its business plan and it is no longer classified as a blank check company.

No assurances can be given that MAHI will be able to enter into any Business Combination, as to the terms of a business combination, or as to the nature of a target company.

 

Competition

 

The competition for merger and acquisition candidates is high, and we have limited financial and personnel resources with which to compete. We expect to be at a disadvantage when competing with many firms that have substantially greater financial and management resources and capabilities. Based on current M&A trends, we believe a high degree of competition in this industry will continue for the foreseeable future.

 

However, we believe that we can distinguish the Company from our competition through the expertise and industry experience of our executive officers.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2018, we currently have two full-time employees, Alex Kam our Chief Executive Officer and Pan-Rong Liu our Chief Financial Officer. Additionally, we are planning to hire other employees and contractors on an as needed basis. Certain other executive positions have been identified, and we intend to fill these positions. Additional other support staff and other personnel will be hired when there is adequate capital available to do so.

 

We have undertaken preliminary investigations concerning candidates for the above positions and do not currently anticipate difficulty in filling such positions with qualified persons; however we cannot assure you that we will in fact be able to hire qualified persons for such positions when needed. Additional positions to be filled may be identified from time to time by the Company. We expect to be able to attract and retain such additional employees as are necessary, commensurate with the anticipated future expansion of our business.  Further, we expect to continue to use consultants, contract labor, attorneys and accountants as necessary.   

 

Available Information

 

Madison Ave Holdings, Inc. is subject to the information requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance therewith files quarterly and annual reports, as well as other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under File No. 000-50655.  Such reports and other information filed with the Commission can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 at prescribed rates, and at various regional and district offices maintained by the Commission throughout the United States.  Information about the operation of the Commission’s public reference facilities may be obtained by calling the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330.  The Commission also maintains a website at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports and other information regarding the Company and other registrants that file electronic reports and information with the Commission.

 

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS.

 

Since we are a smaller reporting company, we are not required to supply the information required by this Item 1A.

Market Information

 

There is no established public market for our common stock, and a public market may never develop. No market maker has agreed to file an application with FINRA. There can be no assurance as to whether such a market maker will agree to file an application or the market maker ’s application will be accepted by FINRA nor can we estimate the time period that will be required for the application process. Even if our common stock were quoted in a market, there may never be substantial activity in such market. If there is substantial activity, such activity may not be maintained, and no prediction can be made as to what prices may prevail in such market.

 

If we become able to have our shares of common stock quoted on the OTCQB and/or OTCBB, we will then try, through a broker- dealer and its ’ clearing firm, to become eligible with the DTC to permit our shares to be traded electronically. If an issuer is not “DTC- eligible,” its shares cannot be electronically transferred between brokerage accounts, which, based on the realities of the marketplace as it exists today (especially the OTCQB and OTCBB), means that shares of an issuer will not be able to be traded (technically the shares can be traded manually between accounts, but this may take days and is not a realistic option for issuers relying on broker-dealers for stock transactions - like all the companies on the OTCQB and OTCBB). What this boils down to is that while DTC-eligibility is not a requirement to trade on the OTCBB, it is however a necessity to efficiently process trades on the OTCQB or OTCBB if a company’s stock is going to trade with any volume. There are no assurances that our shares will ever become DTC-eligible or, if they do, how long it may take.

 

Dividends and Distributions

 

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since inception and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  We expect that that any future earnings will be retained for use in developing and/or expanding our business.

 

Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

On March 15, 2004, the Company issued a total of 500,000 founders shares of common  stock to Acer Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation, owned and controlled by Mr. Cesar Villavicencio, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Director in exchange for services provided and a total of $4,005 in cash.

 

On July 8, 2005, Acer Limited ("Acer"), a British Virgin Islands Company owned and controlled by Mr. Cesar Villavicencio which was then the  sole stockholder of MAHI, sold 475,000 shares of MAHI common stock to Mr. Alex Kam for a cash purchase price of $120,000. Such shares constituted 95% of the outstanding capital stock of MAHI. In connection with the sale, MAHI agreed that, in the event that MAHI successfully completes a merger with or acquisition of one or more business entities identified by Mr. Kam (a "Business Combination"), it will issue to Acer such number of shares of its common stock as shall, together with the 25,000 shares currently owned by Acer, constitute 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of MAHI common stock immediately following consummation of the Business Combination. Also in connection with the sale, Mr. Cesar Villavicencio resigned as sole director and Chief Executive Officer of MAHI and Mr. Kam was elected to both of those positions, making Mr. Kam MAHI's sole director and sole executive officer.

 

On May 22, 2006, Mr. Kam entered into two separate share purchase agreements with each of Mr. Pan-Rong Liu ("Liu") and Mr. Seung Chi Tang ("Tang"). Under the share purchase agreements, Mr. Kam agreed to sell 118,750 shares of Common Stock to each of Liu and Tang. The purchase price for the Shares under each share purchase agreement was $160,000 and was paid in cash. The share purchase agreements were closed on June 13, 2006. The sale of the shares to Liu and Tang was made so that Liu and Tang would have a  proprietary  stake in MAHI and assist in locating and  negotiating with one or more  business  entities  for the  combination  of that  target company or those target companies with MAHI.

With respect to the transactions noted above. Each of the recipients of securities of the Company was an accredited investor, or is considered by the Company to be a “sophisticated person”, inasmuch as each of them has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of receiving securities of the Company. No solicitation was made and no underwriting discounts were given or paid in connection with these transactions. The Company believes that the issuance of its securities as described above was exempt from registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Penny Stock Rules

 

The SEC has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” as such term is defined by Rule 15g-9. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

 

Our shares constitute penny stocks under the Exchange Act. The shares may remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of our shares as penny stocks makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in MAHI will be subject to the penny stock rules.

 

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document approved by the SEC, which: (i) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (ii) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act; (iii) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (iv) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (v) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (vi) contains such other information and is in such form as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide to the customer, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, (i) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (ii) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (iii) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (iv) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

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

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements.  Our actual results are likely to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons.

 

Overview

 

The purpose of MAHI is to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in a business entity which desires to seek the perceived advantages of a corporation which has a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act. MAHI will not restrict its search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and MAHI may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. Management anticipates that it will be able to participate in only one potential business venture because MAHI has nominal assets and limited financial resources. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to the stockholders of MAHI because it will not permit MAHI to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

 

MAHI may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or which wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes.

 

MAHI anticipates that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely risky. MAHI has not conducted any research to confirm that there are business entities seeking the perceived benefits of a reporting corporation. Such perceived benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, increasing the opportunity to use securities for acquisitions, providing liquidity for stockholders and other factors. Business opportunities may be available in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities difficult and complex.

 

MAHI has, and will continue to have, minimal capital with which to provide the owners of business entities with any cash or other assets; however, MAHI offers owners of acquisition candidates the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in a reporting company without the time required to become a reporting company by other means. MAHI has not conducted market research and is not aware of statistical data to support the perceived benefits of a business combination for the owners of a target company.

 

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, the officers and sole director of MAHI, who are not professional business analysts. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, MAHI may consider such matters as the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and other financial requirements; history of operations, if any; prospects for the future; nature of present and expected competition; the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management; the potential for further research, development, or exploration; specific risk factors not now foreseeable, but which then may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of MAHI; the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products, services, or trades; name identification; and other relevant factors. This discussion of the proposed criteria is not meant to be restrictive of the virtually unlimited discretion of MAHI to search for and enter into potential business opportunities.

 

9

 

 

It is anticipated that any securities issued in any Business Combination would be issued in reliance upon exemption from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of its transaction, MAHI may agree to register all or a part of such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or at specified times thereafter. If such registration occurs, it will be undertaken by the surviving entity after MAHI has entered into an agreement for a Business Combination or has consummated a Business Combination and MAHI is no longer considered a blank check company. The issuance of additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in the securities of MAHI may depress the market value of the securities of MAHI in the future if such a market develops, of which there is no assurance.

 

While the terms of a Business Combination cannot be predicted, it is anticipated that the parties to the Business Combination would desire to avoid the creation of a taxable event and therefore structure the transaction as a tax-free reorganization under Section 351 or 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and liabilities, the stockholders of MAHI will in all likelihood hold a substantially lesser percentage ownership interest in MAHI following any Business Combination. The percentage of ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event MAHI acquires a target company with substantial assets. Except for Acer, any Business Combination effected by MAHI can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the stockholders of MAHI at such time.

 

MAHI will participate in a Business Combination only after the negotiation and execution of appropriate agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be predicted, generally such agreements would require certain representations and warranties of the parties thereto, would specify certain events of default, would detail the terms of closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by the parties prior to and after such closing and would include miscellaneous other terms.

 

If MAHI stops or becomes unable to continue to pay its operating expenses, MAHI may not be able to timely make its periodic reports required under the Exchange Act nor to continue to search for an acquisition target.

 

MAHI currently has no revenues. Expenses which comprise the costs of goods sold include mainly include legal, accounting, Edgar filing fees, Delaware registered agent fees, Delaware franchise tax fees, general tax requirements and the cost to remain SEC reporting.  

 

Results of Operations

 

Years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

 

MAHI has no revenues, as it has no products or services. MAHI’s general and administrative expenses (and net loss) increased by $273 from $19,685 in the year ended December 31, 2017 to $19,958 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2018, MAHI had no cash. Certain MAHI stockholders have been currently paying MAHI’s vendors directly as capital contributions to MAHI.

 

We have sustained significant net losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2018 of $258,890 and are currently experiencing a substantial shortfall in operating capital which raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We generated a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2018 of $19,958. Without additional revenues, working capital loans, or equity investment, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue operations.

 

10

 

 

We believe that our capital resources are insufficient for ongoing operations, with minimal current cash reserves, particularly given the resources necessary to expand our business. We will likely require considerable amounts of financing to make any significant advancement in our business strategy. There is presently no agreement in place that will guarantee financing for our Company, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to raise any additional funds, or that such funds will be available on acceptable terms. Funds raised through future equity financing will likely be substantially dilutive to current shareholders. Lack of additional funds will materially affect our Company and our business, and may cause us to substantially curtail or even cease operations.  Consequently, you could incur a loss of your entire investment in the Company.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We believe the following more critical accounting policies are used in the preparation of our financial statements:

 

Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  On a periodic basis, management reviews those estimates, including those related to valuation allowances, loss contingencies, income taxes, and projection of future cash flows.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were various accounting standards and interpretations recently issued, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains or incorporates by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning our future business plans and strategies, the receipt of working capital, future revenues and other statements that are not historical in nature. In this report, forward-looking statements are often identified by the words “anticipate,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” and the like. These forward-looking statements reflect our current beliefs, expectations and opinions with respect to future events, and involve future risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied.

 

Other uncertainties that could affect the accuracy of forward-looking statements include:

 

  the worldwide economic situation;
  any changes in interest rates or inflation;
 

the willingness and ability of third parties to honor their contractual commitments;

 

our ability to raise additional capital, as it may be affected by current conditions in the  stock market and competition for risk capital;

 

our capital expenditures, as they may be affected by delays or cost overruns;

 

environmental and other regulations, as the same presently exist or may later be amended;

 

our ability to identify, finance and integrate any future acquisitions; and

 

the volatility of our common stock price.

 

11

 

 

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of our forward-looking statements. You should read this report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. These forward-looking statements represent our beliefs, expectations and opinions only as of the date of this report. We do not intend to update these forward looking statements except as required by law. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Madison Avenue Holdings Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Madison Avenue Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Madison Avenue Holdings Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of my audit I am required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion.

 

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

 

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s present financial situation raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MADISON AVENUE HOLDINGS INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

 

 

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

 

Madison Avenue Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 27, 2004. The Company has no products or services; the Company is seeking a business to merge with or acquire.

 

 

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

At December 31, 2018, the Company had no cash and for the years ended December 31 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred net losses of $19,958 and $19,685, respectively. These factors create uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is making efforts to acquire a business with assets and operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this objective. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Cash and cash equivalents – For purposes of the balance sheet and statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Use of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fair value of financial instruments – The Company’s financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accrued expenses, which approximate fair value because of their short maturity.

 

Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Net loss per common share – Basic and diluted net loss per common share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

 

Concentration of credit risk – The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

 

 

NOTE 3 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

In March 2004, the Company sold 500,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $.001 per share, or $500 total, to a corporation (the “First Stockholder”) controlled by the then president and director of the Company. From March 2004 to September 2005, the First Stockholder made additional capital contributions to the Company of $13,951.

 

In July 2005, the First Stockholder of the Company sold 475,000 shares of Company common stock to an unrelated third party (the “Second Stockholder”). The Company agreed under the related Stock Purchase Agreement that, in exchange for the First Stockholder’s efforts in procuring the Second Stockholder’s services to identify merger or acquisition targets for the Company; in the event that the Company successfully completes a merger or acquisition of one or more business entities identified by the new 95% Second Stockholder (the “Business Combination”), the Company will issue such number of new shares of the common stock of the Company to the First Stockholder so that it will continue to retain 5% of equity ownership in the Company immediately after the close of any Business Combination. From October 2005 to June 2006, the Second Stockholder made additional capital contributions to the Company of $7,744.

 

In May 2006, the Second Stockholder sold a total of 237,500 shares of Company common stock to two unrelated third parties (the “Third Stockholder” and the “Fourth Stockholder”), 118,750 shares to each of them. From September 2006 to December 2018, the Second Stockholder, Third Stockholder and Fourth Stockholder made capital contributions to the Company of $234,695.

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES

 

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate for the periods presented to income (loss) before income taxes. The income tax rate was 21% for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 34% for the year ended December 31, 2017. The sources of the difference are as follows:

(1) As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Legislation) enacted on December 22, 2017, the United Sates corporate income tax rate became 21% effective January 1, 2018. Accordingly, we reduced our deferred income tax asset relating to our net operating loss carryforward (and the valuation allowance thereon) by $31,061 from $81,237 to $50,176 as of December 31, 2017.

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES (continued)

 

Based on management ‘s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of $54,367 attributable to the future utilization of the $258,890 net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2018 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2018. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. $238,932 of the $258,890 net operating loss carryforward expires in years 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, 2035, 2036 and 2037 in the amounts of $7,297, $12,450, $9,621, $20,306, $16,739, $15,325, $16,318, $18,203, $19,160, $20,410, $20,535, $19,605, $23,278 and $19,685, respectively. The remaining $19,958 (the pretax loss for the year ended December 31, 2018) of the $258,890 net operating loss carryforward does not expire and can be carried forward indefinitely to offset future taxable income.

 

Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

 

 

NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

All activities of the Company are being conducted by the officers and directors from either their homes or their business offices at no cost to the Company. The officers and directors have agreed to continue this arrangement until the Company completes a business combination.

N/A - No change in accountant for the annual period ended December 31, 2018 and to present. 

 

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report because of limited segregation of the duties with respect to management. Our board of directors has only one member. We do not have a formal audit committee.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended). In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. 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 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.

 

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

 

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

13

 

 

Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Age

 

Background Information

Alex Kam

(2005)

 

 64

 

Mr. Kam, age 64, is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and sole director since August 2005. Mr. Kam has extensive experience in international trade between the U.S. and China. He established ACE Wholesale in June 1981 and has served as President of ACE Wholesale since that time. ACE Wholesale has operations in Hong Kong and China, and focuses primarily on the import and export of electronic items. Also since June 1981, he has also served as Executive Vice President of the ACE Group, President of Marido Industrial Corporation, and President of Leman Development Corporation. Additionally, Mr. Kam also founded United National Bank in Monterey Park in August 1986 and served as a director of the bank until the bank was sold in 1992. Mr. Kam has a Masters of Science degree from the University of California at Los Angeles.

 

 

(1) The business address of our sole director is 3505 Hart Avenue, Suite 201, Rosemead, California 91770

 

Director Independence

 

Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:

 

 

the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company;

 

 

the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);

 

 

a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;

 

 

the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);

 

15

 

 

 

the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.

 

We do not have any independent directors. We do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee. We do however have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and director.

 

Compensation of Directors

 

Although we anticipate compensating the members of our board of directors in the future at industry levels, current members are not paid cash compensation for their service as directors. Each director may be reimbursed for certain expenses incurred in attending board of directors and committee meetings.

 

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees

 

Although various items were reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors via unanimous written consent during fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, the Board held no in-person meetings.

 

We do not have Audit or Compensation Committees of our board of directors.  Because of the lack of financial resources available to us, we also do not have an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is described in Item 401 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

 

Changes in Procedures by which Security Holders May Recommend Nominees to the Board

 

Any security holder who wishes to recommend a prospective director nominee should do so in writing by sending a letter to the Board of Directors.  The letter should be signed, dated and include the name and address of the security holder making the recommendation, information to enable the Board to verify that the security holder was the holder of record or beneficial owner of the company’s securities as of the date of the letter, and the name, address and resumé of the potential nominee.  Specific minimum qualifications for directors and director nominees which the Board believes must be met in order to be so considered include, but are not limited to, management experience, exemplary personal integrity and reputation, sound judgment, and sufficient time to devote to the discharge of his or her duties.  There have been no changes to the procedures by which a security holder may recommend a nominee to the Board during our most recently ended fiscal year.

 

Executive Officers

 

Alex Kam is our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary, and Pan-Rong Liu is our Chief Financial Officer. Further information pertaining to Messrs.’ Kam and Liu’s business background and experience is as follows.

To our knowledge, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, based solely upon a review of such materials as are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, no other officer, director, or beneficial holder of more than ten percent of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock failed to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission any form or report required to be so filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934. 

 

Code of Ethics

Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers; Indemnification and Advance of Expenses

 

Pursuant to our charter and under the General Corporation Law of Delaware (hereafter, the “DGCL”), our directors are not liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except for liability in connection with a breach of duty of loyalty, for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for authorization of illegal dividend payments or stock redemptions under Delaware law or any transaction from which a director has derived an improper personal benefit. Our charter provides that we are authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses) to our directors, officers, employees and agents (and any other persons to which applicable law permits us to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

 

We have previously entered into indemnification agreements with certain of our current directors and officers. The indemnification agreement indemnifies the indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, including against third-party claims and claims by or in right of the Company or any subsidiary or majority-owned partnership of the Company by reason of that person (including the advancement of expenses subject to certain conditions) (a) being a director, officer employee or agent of the Company, or of any subsidiary or majority-owned partnership of the Company or (b) serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity.  If appropriate, we are entitled to assume the defense of the claim with counsel selected by us and approved by the indemnitee (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld). Separate counsel employed by the indemnitee will be at his or her own expense unless (1) the employment of separate counsel has been previously authorized by us, (2) the indemnitee reasonably concludes there may be a conflict of interest or (3) we have not, in fact, employed counsel to assume the defense of such claim.

Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue

 

Provisions of Our Charter and Bylaws

 

Our charter and bylaws provide that our board of directors will have the exclusive power to make, alter, amend or repeal any provision of our bylaws.

 

Change of Control

 

On July 8, 2005, Acer Limited ("Acer"), a British Virgin Islands Company owned and controlled by Mr. Cesar Villavicencio which was then the  sole stockholder of MAHI, sold 475,000 shares of MAHI common stock to Mr. Alex Kam for a cash purchase price of $120,000. Such shares constituted 95% of the outstanding capital stock of MAHI. In connection with the sale, MAHI agreed that, in the event that MAHI successfully completes a merger with or acquisition of one or more business entities identified by Mr. Kam (a "Business Combination"), it will issue to Acer such number of shares of its common stock as shall, together with the 25,000 shares currently owned by Acer, constitute 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of MAHI common stock immediately following consummation of the Business Combination. Also in connection with the sale, Mr. Cesar Villavicencio resigned as sole director and Chief Executive Officer of MAHI and Mr. Kam was elected to both of those positions, making Mr. Kam MAHI's sole director and sole executive officer.

 

Other than the transactions and agreements disclosed in this Report, the Registrant knows of no arrangements which may result in a change of control of the Registrant. 

 

No officer, director, promoter or affiliate of the Registrant has, or proposes to have, any direct or indirect material interest in any asset proposed to be acquired by the Registrant through security holdings, contracts, options or otherwise.
