13. We note from your response to prior comment 18 that the Plan and Agreement of Reorganization have been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. As such, revise to provide the disclosures in ASC 805-10-50, ASC 805-20-50, and ASC 805-30-50 related to the acquisition of the accounting acquiree.

 

Response:

 

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has provided requisite disclosures on pages F-11 under business combinations.

 

14. You indicate in response to prior comment 18 that the fair value of WHI’s shares was reliably measured using its net assets book value. The consideration transferred in a business combination should be measured at fair value of the equity transferred that is more reliably measurable according to ASC 805-30-30-2, 30-3, and 30-7. Please revise your calculation of the consideration transferred based on its fair value as determined in accordance with ASC 820. Tell us whether there was a quoted market price for the shares or a quoted market price of shares with similar characteristics or explain the valuation technique used.

 

Response:

 

In response to the Staff comment we have already disclosed the valuation methodology used in business combinations on pages F-11 and the net asset book value is in fact fair value of WHI net assets since there were no such quoted markets for a company with similar characteristics. We used discounted cash flow and replacement cost method.

 

15. We note from your response to prior comment 18 that you cannot reliably measure the right of WHI shareholders to return the shares issued in the transaction. As previously requested, please address how you have accounted for this right in purchase accounting.

 

Response:

 

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has adequately disclosed this right of WHI shareholders to return the shares issued in the transaction on page F-31.

Note 3. Acquisitions, page F-14

 

17. We reissue and clarify prior comment 23. Please explain the accounting for the acquisitions of Ferret Consulting, WSL, and WTL. In this regard, we note from the diagram on page 5 that WTL is a partially-owned subsidiary of Ferret Consulting and WSL and you indicate here that the date of acquisition of WTL was October 18, 2017, however you indicate that Ferret Consulting and WSL were not acquired until November 30, 2021. We further note from your response to prior comment 25 that Ferret Consulting and WSL purchased the shares of WTL from OmanTel. As such, explain how you acquired WTL before the acquisition of its parents. As part of your response, also tell us why the financial statements appear to reflect the historical financial statements of WTL for all periods presented.

 

Response:

 

WTL was not acquired before the acquisition of its parent. WSL acquired WTL on 18 October 2017, whereas WSL “the parent of WTL” was acquired by WHI on 30 November 2021. Similarly, Ferret was also acquired by WHI on 30 November 2021.

 

Financial results of WTL only were presented because the results of WSL and Ferret were considered as a pre-acquisition profit/losses.

 

18. We note your response to prior comment 24. As previously requested, please separately disclose of the items that comprise other non-current assets. Also disclose each of the major classes of liabilities assumed for each of the acquisitions. Refer to ASC 805-20-50- 1(c).

 

Response:

 

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has updated the relevant table on page F-15.

 

19. Refer to your response to prior comment 24. Explain to us how you determined that there were no identifiable intangible assets acquired in any of these business combinations. Tell us the qualitative factors that make up the goodwill recognized, and provide the disclosure required by ASC 805-30-50-1(a). In this regard, we note from your disclosure on page 33, for example, that “WorldCall Public is one of the oldest operators in Pakistan and has good brand recognition for its current portfolio of services.” Refer to ASC 805-20-55-2 through 55-45. In addition, tell us how WTL’s fiber network that was valued at approximately $40 million, as noted from your response to prior comment 25, was considered in your purchase price allocation.

 

Response:

 

In regards to determining the presence of identifiable intangible assets in our recent business combinations, we utilized a valuation model and analysis to identify and allocate fair values to all acquired assets and liabilities. Through this process, we determined that there were no identifiable intangible assets acquired in any of the business combinations as per ASC 805-20-25 .

The goodwill recognized in these business combinations is a result of various qualitative factors, including the assembled workforce, the expected synergies from the combination, the strategic positioning of the acquired business, and the potential for future growth opportunities. These factors were considered in our valuation analysis and deemed to contribute to the overall value of the acquired businesses.

 

In accordance with ASC 805-30-50-1(a), we have provided the required disclosure in our financial statements related to the goodwill recognized in the business combinations.

 

20. For the Ferrett Consulting acquisition, please revise to provide the disclosures required by ASC 805-30-50-1(f), including a description of the reasons why the transaction resulted in a gain.

 

Response:

 

In Response, to Staff comments, we have revised the disclosure in Form 10-K.

 

21. We reissue and clarify prior comment 25. Please explain how you determined the fair value of shares issued as purchase consideration for each of your acquisitions. Provide an explanation of the significant estimates, assumptions, and methodology used in the valuation. As part of your response, explain why the per share fair value was different for the Ferret Consulting and WSL acquisitions that were both consummated on the same date.

 

Response:

 

In response to staff comment the company has determined the fair value of shares based upon the valuation of combined entities using multiple valuation techniques such as the present value of cash flow and replacement cost etc. Since the valuations of combined entities were different for Ferret and WSL, therefore, the per-share value was different.

 

Note 18. Preferred Stocks, page F-31

 

22. We note the revised disclosure in response to prior comment 26 indicating that the preference shares were issued on July 25, 2013.

Please explain and disclose why it does not appear that the conversion occurred.

Note 20. Net Revenue, page F-32

 

23. We note your revised disclosures in response to prior comment 27. As previously requested, please revise to ensure you clarify when the goods and services are considered to be delivered. Refer to ASC 606-10-25-23 through 25-26. In this regard, your revised disclosure that revenue is recognized “at the time when the Company transfers promised good or service and a customer obtains control of that asset” is insufficient. That is, disclose whether the performance obligation is satisfied over time, and if so over what period, or at a point in time, and if so at what point in time.

 

Response:

 

In response to Staff’s comment, the Company has updated the disclosure on page F-34.

 

24. We reissue prior comment 28, in part. For cable TV and internet services, you indicate that the connection and membership fee is recognized at the time of sale of connection. Please explain how you determined the fee relates to a distinct performance obligation. Refer to ASC 606-10-55-50 to 55-53.

 

Response:

 

The connection and membership fee is separately identifiable within the context of the contract. This fee is typically paid by the customer at the time of the sale of the connection, and it entitles the customer to access the cable TV and internet services provided by the company.

 

25. We note your revised disclosure and response to prior comment 28 indicating that the non-refundable upfront connection and membership fee creates a material right to the customer. Tell us and disclose how you account for this material right. Refer to ASC 606-10-55-41 to 55-45.

 

Response:

In response to Staff’s comment, the Company has updated the disclosure in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-41.

26. We reissue and clarify prior comment 29, in part. Please clarify whether or not you have established a valuation allowance. In this regard, we note your disclosure on page F-6 that you have recorded a valuation allowance against the tax benefit from foreign currency translation adjustments.

Response:
