Business Overview
Jocom Holdings Corp., a Nevada Corporation, is a company that operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, Jocom Holdings Corp., a Company organized in Labuan, Malaysia. The Nevada and Labuan, Malaysia corporations share the same exact business plan.
Note: The purpose of the Labuan, Malaysia Company is to function as the current regional hub, carrying out the majority of physical operations of the Company. Initially, we intend for our services to cover the whole of mainland of Malaysia. The Labuan company is part of our international business structure that encompasses our expansion plans and provides other trade and tax benefits.
JHC Digital Sdn. Bhd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Jocom Holdings Corp., Labuan, is incorporated in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for the groups’ future business expansion to trading of all kinds of goods online or offline, ecommerce, logistics activities, consulting services for software technology and software development.
Data Analytic Software Solution
Jocom Holdings Corp currently provides data analytic services in relation to analyzing customers’ buying patterns as it relates to grocery items.. It also makes predictions on customers’ consumption manners, and assists e-commerce businesses and grocery retailers in optimizing their product placements with customers. The services are provided through using in house developed data analytic software solution namely “JOCOM AI Smart Platform”, which was developed by our CEO, Mr. Sew based on his past experience in the software development and fresh grocery industry. JOCOM AI Smart Platform is a subscription-based web software. Our sole client at this time, who is also a related party of the Issuer, is an e-commerce platform operator located in Malaysia. In the future we plan to expand our services to additional customers and to customers in other geographic regions in Southeast Asia.
“Logistic Predictive Algorithm”
We plan to expand our software solution to cover the logistic segment by developing a logistic prediction algorithm. This software solution will take into account several factors such as fleet availability, incoming orders, traffic conditions etc., to create a real-time simulation and provide the best possible routes and delivery options, thus increasing delivery efficiency and saving costs.
We believe the biggest challenges for local store-based grocery retailers and online grocery stores is timeliness of orders and reliability of delivery to customers which is essential in building a loyal customer base and retaining existing customers. Given this, we believe that a software solution with logistic prediction algorithm is essential for grocery retailers and online grocery stores for the logistical management of their grocery products. Our software solution will have a user interface with logistic service provider and logistic operator so grocery retailers could integrate their system with their logistic provider partners system.
| 2 |
Our logistic engine will take in location data and any real-time road conditions to allow for a smoother and faster delivery system. Our delivery partner will feed location and road data, such as bumpy roads, traffic lights, speed cameras, potholes or even accident-prone areas, automatically into our engine to ensure end users get their parcel and delivery on time.
On cross border trade, our logistic engine will be able to align with multiple 3rd party logistics provider and integrate with them to the extent of cross border, by regional, outstation, suburb, cities, and choose the fastest route to send products to international end user in the best effort modelling. The selection of various and multiple logistic will be made possible by integrating to DHL, FedEx, post offices, PO boxes and even a scheduled 3rd party logistic upon arrival on the different countries. The shipping by air and sea freight will allow the tracking of the parcel on real-time basis.
At present, all plans pertaining to the future development of our data analytic software solution are in development, and we cannot state with any certainty how much time, capital, or other resources will be required to fully develop our data analytic software solution.
“JOCOM Mobile Commerce Platform”
Traditionally, we believe manufacturers were at the mercy of selling via wholesalers and retail chains, as it was extremely difficult to reach the end consumer directly if they operated independently. Nonetheless, with the emergence of e-commerce platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, and marketplaces like Amazon and Etsy, entrepreneurs have opened their own stores and thus began D2C manufacturing or Factory-to-Consumer (F2C).[18]
The mission of our company is to address and develop solutions that impact the lives of both consumers and businesses through m-commerce technology. We intend to provide a total integrated solution that protects both consumers and vendors. Jocom Holdings Corp will be able to provide a convenient way to assist traditional businesses by providing the platform of latest technology connecting to rural farmers, producers and vendors with affluent consumer via e-commerce. This will greatly increase the margins of producers and subsequently removing intermediaries and inefficiencies along the supply chain line, enabling transfer of value directly from point-to-point. We believe that customers will be able to shop for items at their own leisure and in the comfort of their own home by browsing through the different categories or using the search function bar and making payments through credit cards and or other major internet payment gateway solutions.
We intend to eventually develop into a full-fledged m-commerce (Mobile commerce) platform specialized in online groceries and shopping. Though data collected from our analytic software solution and publicly available information, we anticipate that our system will automate the customer acquisition modelling, a process which automatically identifies the best potential leads and establishes the best strategies to convert user traffic into active customers.
For the farmers/producers/vendors side, our system will generate a list of information, including but not limited to, gender, age, monthly consumption, demographic area etc., and product types that we believe would most appeal to them based on this information. This information will also be automatically categorized into various product types, such as dry, powder, liquid, chilled, frozen and other keywords. The data AI engine will then give suggestion on monthly output for products of same category on a household basis, thus it could be used for production forecasting and sales forecasting purposes. We believe this will support brands and manufacturers to not under or overproduce.
A further 12 months sales cycle of similar products that exist in our database can then be compared, on one-to-one or group basis. We believe our AI engine can eventually produce more precise prediction and replace the forecasting of retailers and hypermarket, thus speeding up the sales process of particular SKU in the shortest time frame.
We intend that our grocery e-modules will able to integrate with other e-commerce platforms to sell our specialty, namely Asian Groceries, to other SEA and International countries via a cross border logistic integration.

Patents
Via our wholly owned subsidiary, Jocom Holdings Corp., we own the rights to a propriety analytics platform, “JOCOM AI SMART PLATFORM”, referred to herein as, “the Software”, which analyzes buying patterns and customer behaviors of consumers of grocery items within Malaysia. We also have an interface that allows users to purchase and have delivered grocery items delivered. Our Software is able to integrate on our interface and analyze data from the interface. Amongst other things, the Software can analyze customer behaviors, predict customers behaviors, and optimize product placement.
The Patent and Trademark number is LY2021W02673. The patent covers the geographic area of Malaysia.
The details of the Patent can be found at the following source: https://iponlineext.myipo.gov.my/SPHI/Extra/IP/Mutual/Browse.aspx?sid=637880787831647295
Marketing
Our current marketing plans are still at an initial stage. Going forward we intend to introduce Facebook campaigns and various online advertisement to promote our services. We plan to introduce vouchers, a loyalty program, bulk purchases, discount campaigns and other strategies that would increase awareness of our brand. We will also expand our offerings to include other categories such as healthy snacks and organic food.
The Company will position itself to market with a mobile e-commerce application that includes the ability to check stock in local stores, or sending push notifications when users get within a certain range of a local warehouse to be able to target them with personalized offers.
The Company plan to focus its intention on cultivating a positive customer experience by managing both orders and returns. Features such as delivery and returns tracking will be integrated to give users more control and engagement with the buying process. We believe that creating membership and loyalty rewards options will also keep customer coming back.
The Company intends to integrate and build machine learning into the sales platform, allowing it to track behavior and predict user needs, simultaneously boosting Jocom Holdings Corp’s sales and improve customer experience.
Positioning Jocom Holdings Corp as an environment and or health-conscious brand would be a strong differentiator in the market, since the competition has not adopted this strategy.
Competition
Jocom Holdings Corp’s will be in direct negotiation and contact with vendors, manufacturers, wholesalers and main distributors in the grocery supply chain, which we believe will allow the company to enjoy up to 20% gross margin, while keeping only minimal product stock. The Company intends to attract vendors, as many of them are not IT-savvy or familiar with e-commerce operations but wish to participate in the growing internet business. Dealing directly with Jocom Holdings Corp also allows better margin for vendors as the company handles the logistics and distribution i.e. order picking, sorting and delivery (with cold storage support) which save vendors’ cost and ensure efficient and fresh delivery to the customers. At present our competition is comprised of any and all company’s offering online grocery shopping within Malaysia and ASEAN, although we believe that our intended 24 hour deliver, our anticipated gross margins, the utility of our mobile application, and our officers’ business connections, all provide us with a significant competitive advantage.
Employees
As of December 31, 2024, the company has a total of 2 full-time employees at our headquarter office in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which includes our founder and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Sew, and our co-founder & Chief Financing Officer, Ms. Chua. Currently, all of our employees, Officers and/or Directors have the flexibility to work on our business up to 30 hours per week, but are prepared to devote more time if necessary.
As our business and operations increase, we plan to hire full time management, technical and administrative support personnel. Our CEO, Mr. Sew, who graduated with a Computer Science degree and has more than 20 years of extensive experience in IT and software development, will be the key officer developing our technology infrastructure.
We do not presently have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing, or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available to our Officers, Directors or employees.
Government Regulation
At present, we are subject to the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate, which may include business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes. In general, the development and operation of our business is not subject to special regulatory and supervisory requirements.

The transfer agent for our capital stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, with an address at 18, Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598 and telephone number is +1 (212)828-8436.
Penny Stock Regulations
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).
For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market.
In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit the investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock.
Dividend Policy
Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no obligations or restrictions to declare or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Currently, there is no equity compensation plan in place.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Currently, there is no unregistered sales of equity securities.

There is no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company, thus the useful life of the asset shall be considered to be indefinite.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational.
| Categories | Estimated useful life | |
| Renovation | 2 years |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The gain or loss on the disposal of plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the statement of operations
Leases
Effective November 1, 2019, the Company adopted the guidance of ASC 842, Leases, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases. The implementation of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and did not have a significant impact on our liquidity. The Company adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective approach. (see Note 6).
Revenue recognition
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes applicable to the revenue. The Company derives its revenue from provision of technical consultancy on solar power system and consultancy on green energy solution.

Income taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the year that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, as of December 31, 2024, the Company suffered an accumulated deficit of $644,528, and having capital deficiency of $68,561. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stock holders, in the case of equity financing.
| 10 |
Net loss per share
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
Foreign currencies translation
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (“US$”). The Company’s subsidiary in Labuan maintains its books and record in United States Dollars (“US$”) respectively, and Ringgits Malaysia (“MYR”) is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the entity operates.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from MYR into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective year:
| As of and for the year ended December 31, | ||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Year-end RM: US$1 exchange rate | 4.476 | 4.589 | ||||||
| Year-average RM: US$1 exchange rate | 4.563 | 4.561 | ||||||
Related parties
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
Fair value of financial instruments:
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amount due to a director approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
| Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; | |
| Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and | |
| Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”).
Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024
Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures:
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new standard provides improvements to reportable segment disclosure requirements through amendments that require disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis and requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be made on an interim basis. The standard also requires the disclosure of the chief operating decision maker’s (“CODM”) title and position and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The standard also clarifies that if the CODM uses more than one measure in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, a company may report the additional segment profit or loss measure(s) and that companies with a single reportable segment must provide all disclosures required by this amendment. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The standard should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we adopted ASU 2023-07 and enhanced our segment disclosures in line with the new guidance. The adoption had no effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards not yet Adopted
Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures:
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU may have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company does not expect that any other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
| 11 |
Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new standard requires entities to disclose additional information about certain expenses, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, as well as selling expenses included in commonly presented expense captions on the income statement. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies have the option to apply this guidance either on a retrospective or prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosures Control and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2024. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Corporate Governance
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.
In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors, is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and policies.
Committees of the Board
Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our Directors believes that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the Director(s) can adequately perform the functions of such committees.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our Board of Directors has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a Board member that qualifies as “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined by Rule 4200(a)(14) of the FINRA Rules.
We believe that our Director(s) are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The Director(s) of our Company does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee because management believes that the Board of Directors can adequately perform the functions of an audit committee. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent Director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the stage of our development and the fact that we have not generated any positive cash flows from operations to date.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our Directors and our Executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
| 1. | 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 time; |
| 2. | any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
| 3. | being 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/her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or |
| 4. | being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated. |
| 5. | Such person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission to have violated any Federal or State securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated; |
| 6. | Such person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated any Federal commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated; |
| 7. | Such person was the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of:(i) Any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; or(ii) Any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or(iii) Any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or |
| 8. | Such person was the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. |
Independence of Directors
We are not required to have independent members of our Board of Directors, and do not anticipate having independent Directors until such time as we are required to do so.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal, business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or Directors expand in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.
Shareholder Proposals
Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors. The Board of Directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Sew Wen Chean, at the address appearing on the first page of this Information Statement.

In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person by reason of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at any particular date.
| (1) | Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Beneficial ownership also includes shares of stock subject to options and warrants currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this table. In determining the percent of common stock owned by a person or entity as of the date of this Report, (a) the numerator is the number of shares of the class beneficially owned by such person or entity, including shares which may be acquired within 60 days on exercise of warrants or options and conversion of convertible securities, and (b) the denominator is the sum of (i) the total shares of common stock outstanding on as of the date of this Annual Report (57,680,500 shares), and (ii) the total number of shares that the beneficial owner may acquire upon exercise of the derivative securities. Unless otherwise stated, each beneficial owner has sole power to vote and dispose of its shares. |

Opinion on the Financial Statements
Subtantial Doubt About the Entity’s Ability to continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, as of 31 December 2024, the Company suffered an accumulated losses of $644,528 and having capital deficiency of $68,561. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are 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, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical matters.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Jocom Holdings Corp. was incorporated on January 8, 2021 under the laws of the state of Nevada.
The Company, through its subsidiary, engaged in providing data analytic services, which cover customer behavior and predictive customer analysis.
On April 15, 2021, the Company

||||||
| 2. | shares of ordinary share of Malaysian Ringgit RM1 each |
For purposes of consolidated financial statement presentation, Jocom Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments
in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, as of December 31, 2024, the Company suffered
an accumulated deficit of $
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its shareholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stock holders, in the case of equity financing.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements for Jocom Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2024 is prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of Jocom Holdings Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jocom Holdings Corp. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company has adopted December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the balance sheets, and the reported revenue and expenses during the year reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts”. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
The revenue generated was a service fee paid by a client to carry out data analytic services in the Southeast Asia online grocery market.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Intangible Asset
The Company follows the guidance according ASC Topic 350, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” paragraph 350-30-35-18, an intangible asset that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually. There is no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company, thus the useful life of the asset shall be considered to be indefinite.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational.
| Categories | Estimated useful life | |
| Renovation |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The gain or loss on the disposal of plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the statement of operations
Income taxes
The provision of income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the year that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies
should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on
a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the
position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as
the largest amount of tax benefit that has

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
Foreign currencies translation
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (“US$”). The Company’s subsidiary in Labuan maintains its books and record in United States Dollars (“US$”) respectively, and Ringgits Malaysia (“RM”) is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the entity operates.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from RM into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective years:
| As of and for the year ended December 31, | ||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Year-end RM: US$1 exchange rate | ||||||||
| Year-average RM: US$1 exchange rate | ||||||||
Related parties
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

Fair value of financial instruments:
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, prepayment, deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and amount due to a director approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
| Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; | |
| Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and | |
| Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
Leases
Effective November 1, 2019, the Company adopted the guidance of ASC 842, Leases, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases. The implementation of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and did not have a significant impact on our liquidity. The Company adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective approach. (see Note 6).
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”).
Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024
Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures:
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new standard provides improvements to reportable segment disclosure requirements through amendments that require disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis and requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be made on an interim basis. The standard also requires the disclosure of the chief operating decision maker’s (“CODM”) title and position and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The standard also clarifies that if the CODM uses more than one measure in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, a company may report the additional segment profit or loss measure(s) and that companies with a single reportable segment must provide all disclosures required by this amendment. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The standard should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we adopted ASU 2023-07 and enhanced our segment disclosures in line with the new guidance. The adoption had no effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards not yet Adopted
Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures:
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU may have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company does not expect that any other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new standard requires entities to disclose additional information about certain expenses, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, as well as selling expenses included in commonly presented expense captions on the income statement. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies have the option to apply this guidance either on a retrospective or prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
(c) Credit risk
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company believes the
concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively
short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance
for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
(d) Exchange rate risk
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain stable, therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of income for two comparable periods and because of the fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower income depending on exchange rate of RM converted to US$ on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in political and economic environments without notice.
15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about services categories, business segments and major customers in financial statements. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes.
The Company had no inter-segment sales for the periods presented. Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown as below:
