Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited
consolidated financial statements in Item 1, Financial Statements, for the three
months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related notes thereto.
Revenue
We recognized $17 and $134 revenues for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. The decrease in revenue was attributable to decrease in
sales in VitaxelSB in the current period compared to the same period last year.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the period ended March 31, 2022 was $11 compared to $98 for
the period ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was attributable to the decrease
in sales.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the period ended March 31, 2022 was $6 compared to $36 for the
period ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was attributable to the decrease in
sales.in current period as compared to the same period last year.
Operating Expenses
For the period ended March 31, 2022, we incurred total operating expenses in the
amount of $127,055, composed of selling expenses of $nil and general and
administrative expenses totalling $127,055. Whilst, for the period ended March
31, 2021, we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $122,163,
composed of selling expenses of $23 and general and administrative expenses
totalling $122,140. The decrease of $23 or 100% for the selling expenses, along
with the decrease of $4,915 or 4% for the administrative expenses, caused total
operating expenses to decrease by $4,892 or 4%
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2022, we had a cash balance of $47,588. During the period ended
March 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities totalled $108,483. Net
cash used in investing activities totalled $nil. Net cash provided by financing
activities during the period totalled $119,316. The resulting change in cash for
the period was a increase of $10,555, which was primarily due to proceeds from
related parties.
As of March 31, 2022, we had current liabilities of $4,850,403, which was
composed of amount due to related parties of $4,371,719, commission payables of
$125,507, accounts payable of $3,213, accruals and other payable of $329,679 and
lease obligation of $20,285.
15
We had net liabilities of $4,679,662 and $4,585,965 as of March 31, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, respectively.
Going Concern
For the period ended March 31, 2022, the Company reported a net loss of $123,352
and had negative working capital of $4,724,673. The Company had an accumulated
deficit of $9,722,171 as of March 31, 2022 due to the fact that the Company
incurred losses during the years prior to March 31, 2022.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon improving
the profitability and the continuing financial support from its stockholders or
other capital sources. Management believes that the continuing financial support
from the existing shareholders or external debt financing will provide the
additional cash to meet the Company's obligations as they become due. There is
no certainty that further funding will be available as needed.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to
continue operating as a going concern.
Impact of Current Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic on the Company
As many parts of the world is currently under lockdown or restrictive movement
orders due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that all companies
related to the travel, entertainment and lifestyle industry have been negatively
impacted. Our Company is not spared either. We do not foresee any income
contribution from this business, until the destination areas (in particular
South-East Asia and Europe) reopen their countries to allow foreign visitors
again.
Our multi-level marketing ("MLM") business is negatively impacted due to the
fact that being a business built on fostering personal relationship and
expanding new contacts, most distributors are unable to carry out the more
important aspects of regular face to face visits and appointments, promotional
events and direct coaching to continuously improve their team's skills,
motivation and knowledge of our products. Fortunately, we are still able to
connect to our leaders via calls, emails and backoffice announcements and other
form of online communication such as Skype and Zoom to keep the leaders and
members abreast with our status and development. As such, our MLM operation is
still ongoing amid slower than usual.
In the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on
March 29, 2022, we provided an update that the Malaysian Government issued a
National Recovery Plan to cater for both the pandemic period and post-pandemic
period. The National Recovery Plan, which basically spell out 4 different phases
of control order, are still in effect until to date of this report; Phase 4 are
no longer having all states under lockdown and that all business and social
activities within the country are permitted to operate. Although to date, many
restrictions have been lifted, the Company is still uncertain of the effect of
the post-pandemic, where the Company may still expect long-term disruptions on
its existing operations.
