• | Use of estimates |
|
|
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates. | |
• | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of six months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
• | Trade receivables |
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for expected credit losses on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. Trade balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
• | Inventories |
Inventories consisting of products available for sell, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost of inventory is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory reserve is recorded to write down the cost of inventory to the estimated market value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and promotional environment. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products purchased. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income
• | Leases |
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases, which was subsequently amended in 2018 by ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 (collectively, Topic 842). Topic 842 will require the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For operating leases, the asset and liability will be expensed over the lease term on a straight-line basis, with all cash flows included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability will be recognized separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income and the repayment of the principal portion of the lease liability will be classified as a financing activity while the interest component will be included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. Topic 842 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, leases will be recognized and measured at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Topic 842 allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period the new lease standard is adopted and will not require restatement of prior periods.

(Unaudited)
Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company accounted for leases under ASC 840, Accounting for Leases. Effective January 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 Company adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective approach. As a result, the comparative financial information has not been updated and the required disclosures prior to the date of adoption have not been updated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.
• | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis to write off the cost over the following expected useful lives of the assets concerned.
The principal annual rates used are as follows:
Categories |
| Principal Annual Rates |
Air conditioner |
| |
Buildings |
| |
Computer and software |
| |
Equipment |
| |
Furniture and fittings |
| |

Leasehold lands are depreciated over the period of lease term. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Freehold land is not depreciated. Property, plant and equipment under construction are not depreciated until the assets are ready for their intended use
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Expenditures which substantially increase the useful lives of the related assets are capitalized. When properties are disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported in the period the transaction takes place.
Fully depreciated plant and equipment are retained in the financial statements until they are no longer in use.

• | Impairment of long-lived assets |
Long-lived assets primarily include goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. In accordance with the provision of ASC Topic 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company generally conducts its annual impairment evaluation to its long-lived assets, usually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist, such as a significant sustained change in the business climate. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured at the lowest level group. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. There has been no impairment charge for the years presented.
• | Revenue recognition |
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
• identify the contract with a customer;
• identify the performance obligations in the contract;
• determine the transaction price;
• allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and
• recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.
|
The Company records revenue at point in time which is recognized upon goods delivered or services rendered.
• | Cost of revenues |
Cost of revenue includes the purchase cost of retail goods for re-sale to customers and packing materials (such as boxes). It excludes purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs and other costs of distribution network in cost of revenues.

• | Comprehensive income |
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying statements of stockholders’ equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation and cumulative net change in the fair value of available-for-sale investments held at the balance sheet date. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
• | 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 years 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 period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclosed 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.
The Company conducts major businesses in Malaysia and is subject to tax in their own jurisdictions. As a result of its business activities, the Company will file separate tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authorities.
• | Net earnings or loss per share |
The Company calculates net earnings or loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per share”. Basic earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings or loss per share is computed similar to basic earning or 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 |

In addition, the subsidiaries maintain its books and record in a local currency, Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR” or “RM”), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the subsidiaries operate.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not 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 period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

• | Fair value of financial instruments |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, trade receivable, deposits and other receivables, amount due to related parties and other payables 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 six-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 |
As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements, at least annually, on a recurring basis, nor did the Company have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
• | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
NOTE 4 - TRADE RECEIVABLES
The Company has performed an analysis on all its trade receivables and determined that all amounts are collectible by the Company. As such, trade receivables are reflected as a current asset and no allowance for expected credit loss has been recorded as of June 30, 2021 and December, 31, 2020. The Company’s trade receivables consist of receivable from customers which are unrelated to the Company.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Description of Business
As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, references to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” “BioNexus” refer to BioNexus Gene Lab Corp., a Wyoming company (BGLC), and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Bionexus Gene Lab Sdn. Bhd. (“Bionexus Malaysia”), and Chemrex Sdn. Bhd. (“Chemrex”), both Malaysian companies.
BGLC is an emerging molecular diagnostics company focused on the application of functional genomics to enable early diagnosis and personalized health management. On August 23, 2017, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of BioNexus Malaysia, which was incorporated in Malaysia on April 7, 2015. BioNexus Malaysia owns algorithm software, technology and know-how related to the detection of common diseases through blood analysis which we use in our business. Our non-invasive blood screening tests analyze changes in ribonucleic acid (or RNA) to detect the risk potentiality of 11 different diseases. These diseases include eight cancers (nasopharyngeal, lung, liver, stomach, breast, cervical, prostate and colon), two bowel diseases (colitis and Crohn) and osteoarthritis. This unique blood based genomic biomarker approach is based on the scientific observation that circulating blood reflects, in a detectable way, what is occurring throughout the body currently.
The corporate and principal office address of the Company and BioNexus Malaysia is Unit 02, Level 10, Tower B, Avenue 3, The Vertical Business Suite II, Bangsar South, No. 8 Jalan Kerinchi, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia., our lab is located at Lab 353, Chemical Science Centre, University Science Malaysia, George Town, Penang, Malaysia. We also have a blood collection center located at 1st floor, Lifecare Medical Centre, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Our telephone number is (+60) 1221-26512 and our web-site is www.bionexusgenelab.com.
Chemrex is a wholesaler of industrial chemicals for the manufacture of industrial, medical, appliance, aero, automotive, mechanical and electronic industries in Asia Pacific region. On December 31, 2020, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Chemrex, which was incorporated in Malaysia on September 29, 2004.
Chemrex’s corporate offices and distribution and storage center is located at 4 Jalan CJ 1/6 Kawasan Perusahaan Cheras Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia. Its phone number is (+60) 1922-23815 and web-site is www.chemrex.com.my.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) in regard to the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the registrant to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company’s plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the registrant or any other person that the objectives and plans of the registrant will be achieved.

| Table of Contents |
Substantial risks exist with respect to an investment in the Company. These risks include but are not limited to, those factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2021. More broadly, these factors include, but are not limited to:
| • | We have limited operating history and limited business growth; |
| • | The efficacy of our blood screening process; |
| • | We may face product liability claims and we have no insurance to cover such claims; and |
| • | There are risks associated with our business operations in Malaysia, including enforcing judgements against our operating subsidiary and management. |
The results of operations of our subsidiary, BioNexus-Malaysia, with respect to its RNA screening process have been adversely impacted by the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, which commenced in late December 2019 in Malaysia. We believe that most people have been and will continue to be reluctant to visit hospitals and clinics during the Covid-19 pandemic for fear of transmission from other patients or medical staff. Since our RNA screening is administered at hospitals and clinics, our business has been adversely affected as a result. Furthermore, on March 18, 2020, the Malaysian government first imposed its Movement Control Order (MCO) which lasted through June 9, 2020 to control the spread of COVID-19. The MCO restricted movement of all people except for those who were working for essential services. The MCOs were enhanced and relaxed at different phases in 2020 and 2021, including the Enhanced Movement Control Order (EMCO), Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) and Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO). This Enhanced Movement Control Orders were implemented whenever there was a surge of Covid-19 cases. During these EMCOs, only companies classified under essential service were allowed to operate. This EMCO ended on July 16, 2021 and the government allowed more companies and factories to operate with strict Standard Operation Procedures. However, as discussed below, during fiscal 2021, BioNexus-Malaysia implemented the sale of its Covid19 qPCR test procedure through the Malaysian government. Our Covid testing generates substantially lower per ticket charges at $30-38 per test compared with $900 per customer for our RNA testing. Our Covid tests also generate lower margins than our RNA tests.
The results of operations for Chremrex were adversely impacted during the May to July 2020 period due to the MCO’s and Covid-19. However, since that time, the operations of Chemrex have not been materially impacted as a result of the MCO’s or Covid-19.
Recent Developments. As previously reported, we submitted to the Malaysian Ministry of Health (MOH) our Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT PCR) Covid-19 screening for approval, which occurred in June 2020. On April 30, 2021, BioNexus entered into an Agreement with MOH to outsource our Covid19 qPCR test for public hospitals and clinics within Malaysia. The use of our testing protocol began on May 6, 2021. We expect that our testing protocol would be continued to be used by the MOH’ public hospitals and clinics through August 2021, when the pandemic curve is expected to flatten. As of June 30, 2021, we completed roughly 13,635 tests at an average charge per test of $30.

Our primary uses of cash have been for operations. The main sources of cash have been from operational revenues and the private placement of our common stock. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:
| · | Addition of administrative and marketing personnel as the business grows, |
| · | Development of a Company website, |
| · | Increases in advertising and marketing in order to attempt to generate more revenues, and |
| · | The cost of being a public company. |

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act (“Exchange Act”) as of June 30, 2021. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information was not accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| i) | Pertain to the maintenance of records that is in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; |
| ii) | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorizations of management and the board of directors; and |
| iii) | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
| 34 |
| Table of Contents |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting 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.
The Company’s management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, which assessment identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Since the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting did identify a material weakness, management considers its internal control over financial reporting to be ineffective.
Management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting had the following material deficiencies:
| i | Lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. |
While these control deficiencies did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2021 or 2020 interim or annual financial statements, it could have resulted in a material misstatement that might have been prevented or detected by a segregation of duties. Accordingly, we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
To the extent reasonably possible, given our limited resources, our goal is, upon consummation of a merger with a private operating company, to separate the responsibilities of principal executive officer and principal financial officer, intending to rely on two or more individuals. We will also seek to expand our current board of directors to include additional individuals willing to perform directorial functions. Since the recited remedial actions will require that we hire or engage additional personnel, this material weakness may not be overcome in the near term due to our limited financial resources. Until such remedial actions can be realized, we will continue to rely on the advice of outside professionals and consultants.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal controls over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, there has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
