NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Current Operations and Background — AuraSource, Inc. (“AuraSource” or “Company”) focuses on two areas AuraMetal and AuraMoto.

 AuraMetal^TM is focused on the development and production of environmentally friendly and cost-effective beneficiation process for complex ore, tailings and slimes materials as industrial application solutions. AuraSource’s core technology includes physical separation, hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgy processes. We have developed seven patented technologies: 1) ultrafine grinding and 2) ultrafine separation. To date, we have not had any sustainable projects. As such, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

AuraMoto^TM is focused on sourcing various vendors and customers in the automotive industry. We entered into the industry due to our various international sourcing contacts. We have been requested from various parties to source vendors and customers in the automotive industry. This business line is still in development. As this is a new enterprise for the Company, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

There can be no assurance we will be able to carry out our development plans for AuraMetals or AuraMoto. Our ability to pursue this strategy is subject to the availability of additional capital and further development of our technology.  We also need to finance the cost of effectively protecting our intellectual property rights in the United States (“US”) and abroad where we intend to market our technology and products.

Going Concern — The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $20,351,986 at December 31, 2021.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its existence.  The recovery of the Company’s assets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company. In addition, the Company's recovery is dependent upon future events, the outcome of which is undetermined.  The Company intends to continue to attempt to raise additional capital, but there can be no certainty such efforts will be successful.

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The Company plans to look for opportunities to merge with other companies in the graphite industry.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

-7- 

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition. ASC 606 requires that five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:

1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when or as you satisfy a performance obligation

 When we are paid in advance for products or services, we classify these amounts as deferred revenue. Upon the receipt of these products at the destination port, we recognize revenue. For services, and we amortized the price over the term of the agreement. 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of AuraSource and its subsidiary, Qinzhou. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP was omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended March 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of the Three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending March 31, 2022.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Equivalents — We consider investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment - Property and Equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the assets are as follows: machinery and equipment 3 years, office equipment 3 years, vehicles 5 years. Additions and improvements are capitalized while routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or disposition, the historically recorded asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to other income / expense.

-8- 

Leases- In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, and ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.

The new standard became effective April 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. The Company adopted the new standard on April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach as of the effective date of the initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits entities not to reassess under the new lease standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.

The most significant effects of the adoption of the new standard relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease labilities on our balance sheet for office operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about our leasing activities.

The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company has also elected the short-term leases recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means that the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities, for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. The new standard did not have a material impact.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of- In accordance with ASC 350-30, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable.  When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount.  Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.  We currently believe there is no impairment of our long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products under development will continue.  Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

-9- 

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation — The Company recognizes the options and restricted stock awards to employees at grant date fair-value of the instruments in the consolidated financial statements over the period the employee is required to perform the services.

Foreign Currency Translation. - Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars, but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the financial statements denominated in RMB into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income.

Net Loss Per Share — The Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares arising from stock options and warrants were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, for the Three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash.  The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits.  

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and notes payable. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and notes payable are representative of the fair values due to their short-term maturities. We measure the fair value (“FV”) of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. FV is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FV measurements are to be considered from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. We also establish a FV hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring FV.

-10- 

The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure FV:

Level 1:	Quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 2:	Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 3:	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at FV with changes in FV recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC subtopic 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Statements." This update provides financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 15, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement," which changed the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, adding and modifying certain disclosures. The standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 15, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Cloud Computing Arrangements," which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred for an internal-use software license. The standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

As of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, our deposits did not exceed amounts insured by the FDIC (up to $250,000, per financial institution as of December 31, 2021). We have not experienced any losses in such accounts, and we believe we are not exposed to any credit risk on cash.

Currently, we maintain a bank account in China. This account is not insured, and we believe is exposed to credit risk on cash.

NOTE 3 – DUE TO RELATED PARTIES

As of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, $2,678,275 and $2,349,781, respectively, is owed to the officers and directors. Since December 2011, the officers and directors of the Company agreed to accrue compensation for their services until such time the Company had sufficient funds to pay this liability.

In December 2014, we entered into a note payable for $63,357 which bears an interest rate of 6% per year as a settlement for previously due amounts recorded in accounts payable. The Company paid $7,500 to reduce the amount of the note. The amount of principle and interest as of December 31, 2021 is $86,816. The principle and interest are due on September 15, 2016.

-12- 

On May 3, 2020, we entered into a loan borrowed $29,332 from Bank of America (“Lender”), pursuant to a Promissory Note issued by Company to Lender (the “PPP Note”). The loan was made pursuant to the Payroll Protection Program established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Note bears interest at 1.00% per annum, payable monthly beginning December 3, 2020, and is due on May 3, 2022. The PPP Note may be repaid at any time without penalty. Under the Payroll Protection Program, the Company will be eligible for loan forgiveness up to the full amount of the PPP Note and any accrued interest. The forgiveness amount will be equal to the amount that the Company spends during the 8-week period beginning May 3, 2020 on payroll costs, payment of rent on any leases in force prior to February 15, 2020 and payment on any utility for which service began before February 15, 2020. The maximum amount of loan forgiveness for non-payroll expenses is 25% of the amount of the PPP Note. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness under the PPP Note in whole or in part. The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in a claim for the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of the PPP Note is $29,821.

On June 13, 2020, we entered into a note with the US Small Business Administration for a loan amount of $12,900 and an annual interest rate of 3.75% which is due in 30 years. We repaid $10,000 in August 2020. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of the note is $2,950.

-13- 

NOTE 7 - STOCK OPTIONS

On April 1, 2020, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On July 1, 2020, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On October 1, 2020, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On January 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On April 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On July 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On October 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements.

We will record stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which in our case approximates the vesting period of the options. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $90,000 and $15,400, respectively, in compensation expense arising from the vesting of options, respectively. The Company assumed all stock options issued during the quarter will vest. Though these expenses result in a deferred tax benefit, we have a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax benefit.

The Company adopted the detailed method provided in FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” for calculating the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (“APIC pool”) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the income tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding.

The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“BSOPM”). The BSOPM has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk-free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities at a 10-year constant maturity. Dividend rates are based on the Company’s dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on the last five years of market prices prior to the grant date. The expected life of an option grant is based on management’s estimate. The fair value of each option grant, as calculated by the BSOPM, is recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each stock option award.

These assumptions were used to determine the FV of stock options granted:

Dividend yield		0.0%
Volatility		351-355%
Average expected option life	10 years
Risk-free interest rate		1.48-1.69%

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The information contained in this Form 10-Q is intended to update the information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021 and presume readers have access to, and will have read, the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other information contained in such Form 10-K. The following discussion and analysis also should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The following discussion contains certain statements that may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements appear in a number of places in this Report, including, without limitation, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and requirements that are difficult to predict or are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this quarterly report. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We strongly encourage investors to carefully read the factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021 in the section entitled “Risk Factors” for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements.

The following should also be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that appear elsewhere in this report.

Overview

AuraSource focuses on the development and production of environmentally friendly and cost-effective beneficiation process for complex ore, tailings and slimes materials as industrial application solutions. AuraSource’s core technology includes physical separation, hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgy processes.

Recently, due to our various international sourcing contacts, we have been requested from various parties to source vendors and customers in the automotive industry. There can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

AuraSource’s physical separation includes ultrafine grinding and impurities removal, which separate metallic and non-metallic minerals. AuraSource develops and tests hydrometallurgical flow sheets for the recovery and refining of metals from concentrate leaching, precipitation, cementation, ion-exchange, solvent extraction, electro-winning, and process simulations. AuraSource also carries out high-temperature research and process development for the production of a wide variety of mineral commodities.

AuraSource formed AuraSource Qinzhou, to acquire these types of technologies, performing R&D related to the reduction of harmful emissions and energy costs. AuraSource is currently looking to license this technology to third parties through joint ventures with strategic partners and/or selling services and products derived from this technology. Currently, we have seven patents patent issued related to our technologies: 1) ultrafine grinding and 2) ultrafine separation.

There can be no assurance we will be able to carry out our development plans for our technology. Our ability to pursue this strategy is subject to the availability of additional capital and further development of our technology.  We also need to finance the cost of effectively protecting our intellectual property rights in the United States (“US”) and abroad where we intend to market our technology and products.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates which are based on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions. The following accounting policies require significant management judgments and estimates:

We account for our business acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, "Business Combinations." The total cost of acquisitions is allocated to the underlying net assets, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible net assets acquired is recorded as intangibles. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management's judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, asset lives, and market multiples, among other items.

We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from these estimates.

-18- 

The Company suffered recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $20,351,986 at December 31, 2021.

Unless our operations continue to generate significant revenues and cash flows from operating activities, our continued operations will depend on whether we are able to raise additional funds through various sources, such as equity and debt financing, other collaborative agreements and strategic alliances. Our management is actively engaged in seeking additional capital to fund our operations in the short to medium term. Such additional funds may not become available on acceptable terms and there can be no assurance that any additional funding that we do obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs in the short and long term.

Inflation and Seasonality

Inflation has not been material to us during the past five years. Seasonality has not been material to us.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  The term "disclosure controls and procedures", as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of December 31, 2021, that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to a reasonable assurance level of achieving such objectives.  However, it should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:  Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our ICFR is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP.  The internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management's review and approval of all transactions.  Our ICFR also includes those policies and procedures that:

1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
2. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and
3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, ICFR may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, 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.

-20- 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's ICFR as of December 31, 2021.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  Management's assessment included an evaluation of the design of our ICFR and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2021, our ICFR was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding ICFR.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:  There were no changes in our ICFR during the quarter ending December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR. 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not a party to any current or pending legal proceedings that, if decided adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations, or financial condition, and we are not aware of any threatened or contemplated proceeding by any governmental authority against us. To our knowledge, we are not a party to any threatened civil or criminal action or investigation.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other risk factors and information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K is not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and/or cash flows.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

9 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2021

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Current Operations and Background — AuraSource, Inc. (“AuraSource” or “Company”) focuses on two areas AuraMetal and AuraMoto.

 AuraMetal^TM is focused on the development and production of environmentally friendly and cost-effective beneficiation process for complex ore, tailings and slimes materials as industrial application solutions. AuraSource’s core technology includes physical separation, hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgy processes. We have developed seven patented technologies: 1) ultrafine grinding and 2) ultrafine separation. To date, we have not had any sustainable projects. As such, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

AuraMoto^TM is focused on sourcing various vendors and customers in the automotive industry. We entered into the industry due to our various international sourcing contacts. We have been requested from various parties to source vendors and customers in the automotive industry. This business line is still in development. As this is a new enterprise for the Company, there can be no assurances that our efforts towards this line of business will succeed.

There can be no assurance we will be able to carry out our development plans for AuraMetals or AuraMoto. Our ability to pursue this strategy is subject to the availability of additional capital and further development of our technology.  We also need to finance the cost of effectively protecting our intellectual property rights in the United States (“US”) and abroad where we intend to market our technology and products.

Going Concern — The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $20,351,986 at December 31, 2021.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its existence.  The recovery of the Company’s assets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company. In addition, the Company's recovery is dependent upon future events, the outcome of which is undetermined.  The Company intends to continue to attempt to raise additional capital, but there can be no certainty such efforts will be successful.

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The Company plans to look for opportunities to merge with other companies in the graphite industry.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition. ASC 606 requires that five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:

1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when or as you satisfy a performance obligation

 When we are paid in advance for products or services, we classify these amounts as deferred revenue. Upon the receipt of these products at the destination port, we recognize revenue. For services, and we amortized the price over the term of the agreement. 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of AuraSource and its subsidiary, Qinzhou. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP was omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended March 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending March 31, 2022.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Equivalents — We consider investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment - Property and Equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the assets are as follows: machinery and equipment 3 years, office equipment 3 years, vehicles 5 years. Additions and improvements are capitalized while routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or disposition, the historically recorded asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to other income / expense.

Leases- In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, and ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.

The new standard became effective April 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. The Company adopted the new standard on April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach as of the effective date of the initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits entities not to reassess under the new lease standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.

The most significant effects of the adoption of the new standard relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease labilities on our balance sheet for office operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about our leasing activities.

The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company has also elected the short-term leases recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means that the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities, for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. The new standard did not have a material impact.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of- In accordance with ASC 350-30, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable.  When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount.  Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.  We currently believe there is no impairment of our long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products under development will continue.  Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance for a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation — The Company recognizes the options and restricted stock awards to employees at grant date fair-value of the instruments in the consolidated financial statements over the period the employee is required to perform the services.

Foreign Currency Translation. - Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars, but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the financial statements denominated in RMB into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income.

Net Loss Per Share — The Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares arising from stock options and warrants were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash.  The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits.  

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and notes payable. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and notes payable are representative of the fair values due to their short-term maturities. We measure the fair value (“FV”) of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. FV is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FV measurements are to be considered from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. We also establish a FV hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring FV.

The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure FV:

Level 1:	Quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 2:	Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 3:	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at FV with changes in FV recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC subtopic 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Statements." This update provides financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 15018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement," which changed the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, adding and modifying certain disclosures. The standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 15018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Cloud Computing Arrangements," which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred for an internal-use software license. The standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.

LOANS PAYABLE	In December 2014, we entered into a note payable for $63,357 which bears an interest rate of 6% per year as a settlement for previously due amounts recorded in accounts payable. The Company paid $7,500 to reduce the amount of the note. The amount of principle and interest as of December 31, 2021 is $86,816. The principle and interest are due on September 15, 2016. The note payable is currently in default. On May 1, 2020, we received $2,000 from US Small Business Administration as part of Economic Injury Disaster Loans (“EIDL”). This was a grant and does not need to be repaid. We recorded this as other income. On May 3, 2020, we entered into a loan borrowed $29,332 from Bank of America (“Lender”), pursuant to a Promissory Note issued by Company to Lender (the “PPP Note”). The loan was made pursuant to the Payroll Protection Program established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Note bears interest at 1.00% per annum, payable monthly beginning December 3, 2020, and is due on May 3, 2022. The PPP Note may be repaid at any time without penalty. Under the Payroll Protection Program, the Company will be eligible for loan forgiveness up to the full amount of the PPP Note and any accrued interest. The forgiveness amount will be equal to the amount that the Company spends during the 8-week period beginning May 3, 2020 on payroll costs, payment of rent on any leases in force prior to February 15, 2020 and payment on any utility for which service began before February 15, 2020. The maximum amount of loan forgiveness for non-payroll expenses is 25% of the amount of the PPP Note. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness under the PPP Note in whole or in part. The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in a claim for the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of the PPP Note is $29,821. On June 13, 2020, we entered into a note with the US Small Business Administration for a loan amount of $12,900 and an annual interest rate of 3.75% which is due in 30 years. We repaid $10,000 in August 2020. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of the note is $2,950.

On October 1, 2020, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On January 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On April 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On July 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements. On October 1, 2021, we granted 200,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.052 per share to certain our CEO and CFO per their employment agreements.

We will record stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which in our case approximates the vesting period of the options. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $80,000 and $11,000, respectively, in compensation expense arising from the vesting of options, respectively. The Company assumed all stock options issued during the quarter will vest. Though these expenses result in a deferred tax benefit, we have a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax benefit.

The Company adopted the detailed method provided in FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” for calculating the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (“APIC pool”) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the income tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding.

The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“BSOPM”). The BSOPM has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk-free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities at a 10-year constant maturity. Dividend rates are based on the Company’s dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on the last five years of market prices prior to the grant date. The expected life of an option grant is based on management’s estimate. The fair value of each option grant, as calculated by the BSOPM, is recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each stock option award.

These assumptions were used to determine the FV of stock options granted:

Dividend yield		0.0%
Volatility		355%
Average expected option life	10 years
Risk-free interest rate		1.69%

The following table summarizes activity in the Company's stock option grants for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and year ended March 31, 2021:

	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Price Per Share

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2021

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Going Concern

Going Concern — The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $20,351,986 at December 31, 2021.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its existence.  The recovery of the Company’s assets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company. In addition, the Company's recovery is dependent upon future events, the outcome of which is undetermined.  The Company intends to continue to attempt to raise additional capital, but there can be no certainty such efforts will be successful.

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The Company plans to look for opportunities to merge with other companies in the graphite industry.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition. ASC 606 requires that five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:

1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when or as you satisfy a performance obligation

When we are paid in advance for products or services, we classify these amounts as deferred revenue. Upon the receipt of these products at the destination port, we recognize revenue. For services, and we amortized the price over the term of the agreement. 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of AuraSource and its subsidiary, Qinzhou. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP was omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended March 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending March 31, 2022.

Use of estimates

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents — We consider cash equivalent with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment - Property and Equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the assets are as follows: machinery and equipment 5 years, office equipment 5 to 7 years, vehicles 5 years, and leasehold improvements use the shorter of the estimated useful life or the remaining term of the agreements, generally ranging from 3 to 15 years. Additions and improvements are capitalized while routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or disposition, the historically recorded asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to other income / expense.

Leases

Leases- In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, and ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.

The new standard became effective April 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. The Company adopted the new standard on April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach as of the effective date of the initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits entities not to reassess under the new lease standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.

The most significant effects of the adoption of the new standard relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease labilities on our balance sheet for office operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about our leasing activities.

The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company has also elected the short-term leases recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means that the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities, for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. The new standard did not have a material impact.

We entered into a new lease on July 1, 2019. The new policy impacted us July 1, 2019.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold- Cost of goods sold includes cost of inventory sold during the period, net of discounts and allowances, freight and shipping costs, warranty and rework costs, and sales tax.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of- In accordance with ASC 360, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable.  When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount.  Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.  We currently believe there is no impairment of our long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our products under development will continue.  Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets

Income Taxes

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Stock based compensation

Stock-Based Compensation — We periodically issue stock options and shares to employees and non-employees for services. We account for stock option grants issued and vesting to employees based on Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, whereas the award is measured at its fair value at the date of grant and is amortized ratably over the vesting period. We account for shares issued to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505, “Equity”, whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive Income - We have adopted ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, formerly known as SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. We have chosen to report comprehensive income (loss) in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Foreign currency transactions

Foreign Currency Translation. - Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the financial statements denominated in RMB into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Our foreign currency translation gain for the year ended March 31, 2020 was $24,387, compared a translation loss of $29,592 for the year ended March 31, 2019.

Net loss per share

Net Loss Per Share — The Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares arising from stock options and warrants were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash.  The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. 

Financial instruments and fair value of financial instruments

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and notes payable.  The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and notes payable are representative of their fair values due to their short-term maturities. We measure the fair value (“FV”) of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. FV is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FV measurements are to be considered from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. We also establish a FV hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring FV.

The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure FV:

Level 1:	Quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 2:	Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.
Level 3:	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payables, and notes payable approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities
