DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT
Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, all of which are based upon various estimates and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable as of the date hereof.

These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

|
|
| · | the possibility that we issue additional shares of common stock or convertible securities that will dilute the percentage ownership interest of existing stockholders and may dilute the book value per share of our common stock; |
|
|
|
| · | the relatively low trading volume of our common stock, which could depress our stock price; |
|
|
|
| · | competition in the industries in which we operate, both from third parties and former employees, which could result in the loss of one or more customers or lead to lower margins on new projects; |
|
|

|
|
|

| · | the recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions; |
You should understand that the foregoing, as well as other risk factors discussed in this document and in Part I Item 1A, under the heading of Risk Factors could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those experienced previously or those expressed in such forward-looking statements.

ITEM 1: BUSINESS
A) General
Crown Equity Holdings Inc. formerly known as Micro Bio-Medical Waste Systems, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 31, 1995 as "Visioneering Corporation" under the laws of the State of Nevada.
In December, 2010, the Company formed two wholly owned subsidiaries Crown Tele Services Inc. and CRWE Direct Inc. Crown Tele Services Inc. was formed to provide voice over internet services to clients at a competitive price, CRWE Direct Inc. was formed to provide direct sales to customers.
In December 2011, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary CRWE Real Estate Inc. to hold real estate. This entity had no sales during the year. The company sold the above subsidiaries (Crown Tele Services Inc., CRWE Direct, and CRWE Real Estate Inc.) on the 28th of December, 2017.
At the present time, the Company is offering its services to domestic and global companies seeking to become public entities in the United States. It has launched a website, www.crownequityholdings.com, which offers its services in a wide range of fields. The Company provides various consulting services to companies and individuals dealing with corporate structure and operations globally. The Company also provides public relations and news dissemination for publicly and privately held companies.
In 2009, the Company re-focused its primary vision to using its network of websites to provide advertising and marketing services, as a worldwide online media advertising publisher, dedicated to the distribution of quality branding information. The Company offers Internet media-driven advertising services, which cover and connect a wide range of marketing specialties, as well as search engine optimization for clients interested in online media awareness. As part of its operations, the Company has utilized the services of software and hardware technicians in developing its websites and adding additional websites. This allows the Company to disseminate news and press releases for its customers as well as general news and financial information on a much bigger scale than it did previously. The Company markets its services to companies seeking market awareness of them and the services or goods that they offer. The Company then publishes information concerning these companies on its many websites. The Company is paid in cash and/or stock of the customer companies. The condition of online publishing remains at an all-time high and is continuing to evolve and grow. It is to a point where online publishing is a key component of a publishing company's strategy in the print dominated market. No longer is the possession of printed reading material adding value to a reader's experience.
At the moment, the majority of the Company's publishing sites have light to relatively medium traffic. The Company is presently in the process of strengthening its online publishing competitive position with its strategy of producing and obtaining a stronger presence with its community targeted online news and information publishing. The Company has increased its web presence with the dedicated community targeted news and information publishing websites. The Company has increased its readership to create a stronger competitive position within the online publishing industry. The company is continuing its efforts with increasing its readership to obtain advertisers wanting to reach its viewership.
The Company's office is located at 11226 Pentland Downs Street, Las Vegas, NV 89141. The Company is provided office space by one of the officers and directors at no charge.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company utilized the services of independent contractors during the year. Officers’ compensation is detailed in Part III, Item 11 of this filing.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS
We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities and can expect such losses and negative cash flows to continue in the foreseeable future. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions and future sales.
If we are unable to adapt to changing market conditions, client requirements or emerging industry standards, our business could be adversely affected.
Because of inherent limitations, a system of 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 due to change in conditions.
These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, if our operating results differ from our announced guidance or the expectations of equity research analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decrease significantly.
ITEM 1B: UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2: PROPERTIES
The Company is provided office space by one of the officers and directors at no charge. The Company believes that this office space is sufficient for its needs for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The following discussion of the financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and related notes included therein.
The Company was incorporated on August 31, 1995 as Visioneering Corporation. In 1999, the Company acquired 20/20 Web Design, Inc., a Colorado corporation wholly owned by Crown Partners, Inc. In August, 2009, Crown Partners transferred its shares of the Company to Crown Marketing Corporation ("Crown Marketing") in exchange for marketing and public relation services to be provided by Crown Marketing.

The Company continues to search for additional areas in which it can generate revenue so that the Company will become profitable but there can be no guarantee that profitability will be achieved in the near- or long-term.
The Company will attempt to carry out its business plan as discussed below. The Company's business plan is to continue building its network of online publishing sites, as well as continuing to provide the consulting and services to its client on an as-needed basis. These services include general and financial management to private and public companies with an emphasis on their financial reporting and filing requirements. Such service is subject to the needs of its clients and may vary by company. The Company will attempt to carry out its business plan as described above. The Company cannot predict to what extent its lack of liquidity and capital resources will hinder its business plan prior to the consummation of a business combination.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since inception, the Company's most significant change in liquidity or capital resources or stockholders' equity has been receipts of proceeds from offerings of its capital stock. The revenue transaction does not reflect the ability of the Company to fund itself without outside sources in the future. In the past, officers and directors of the Company have lent or advanced monies to the Company to fund operations, there are no formal agreements or arrangements for them to continue to do so. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has $2,930 in cash, $649.71 held in brokerage accounts and $0.00 of long-term debt.
On December 31, 2022, the Company had negative working capital of $1,382,838, which consisted of current assets of $2,930 and current liabilities of $1,385,768. The current liabilities of the Company on December 31, 2022 are composed of accounts payable and accrued expenses of $145,630, accounts payable and accrued expenses to related party of $1,208,740, and note payable to related parties of $9,500, convertible notes payable to related parties, net of debt discount of$19,028, and current portion of long-term debt of 2,870.
Cash flows used in and provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $89,366 compared to cash flow used of $18,693 for the same period in 2021.
Cash flows provided by and used in investing activities were $67,000 and $200,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively.
Cash flows provided by financing activities was $20,979 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $182,580 for the same period in 2021. The financing activities in 2022 consisted mostly of proceeds from sale of stock.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had total assets of $5,437 and total liabilities of $1,385,768. Stockholders' deficit as of December 31, 2022 was $1,380,331 compared to a deficit of $673,558 on December 31, 2021. The Company will attempt to carry out its plan of business as discussed above. The Company cannot predict to what extent its lack of liquidity and capital resources will hinder its business plan. The Company will need additional capital to fund that proposed operation.
NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING
The Company's existing capital may not be sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs, including the costs of compliance with the continuing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any funds will be available to the Company to allow it to cover its expenses.
The Company might seek to compensate providers of services by issuances of stock in lieu of cash.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

| Table of Contents |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Crown Equity Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Crown Equity Holdings, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial states have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Going concern
Critical Audit Matter Description
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a going concern due to a working capital deficiency, negative cash flows from operations and limited business operations as of December 31, 2022. Auditing management’s evaluation of a going concern can be a significant judgment given the fact that the Company uses management estimates on future revenues and expenses which are not able to be substantiated.
How the Critical Audit Matter was Addressed in the Audit
To evaluate the appropriateness of the going concern, we examined and evaluated the financial information that was the initial cause along with management’s plans to mitigate the going concern and management’s disclosure on going concern.
/s/
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements include the financial information of Crown Equity Holdings Inc. (“Crown Equity”, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to financial reporting as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The preparation of these financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the financial statements contained in this report include all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods reported herein.
| F-7 |
| Table of Contents |
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases”, which is codified in ASC 842 “Leases” and supersedes current lease guidance in ASC 840. These provisions require lessees to put a right-of-use asset and lease liability on their balance sheet for operating and financing leases that have a term of more than one year. Expense will be recognized in the income statement similar to current accounting guidance. For lessors, the ASU modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. Entities will need to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about their leases, including characteristics and amounts recognized in the financial statements. These provisions are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted the provisions on January 1, 2019, including interim periods subsequent to the date of adoption. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach upon adoption to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Since all the leases were finance leases, there was no effect on the financial statements when ASC 842 was adopted.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to simplify the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments for employees, with certain exceptions. Under the new guidance, the cost for nonemployee awards may be lower and less volatile than under current US GAAP because the measurement generally will occur earlier and will be fixed at the grant date. This update is effective for annual financial reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, although early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019 and found the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
Crown Equity does not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on their financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-3, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instructions (ASU 2016-13), which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. ASU 2016-3 is effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2023, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2016-13 on our financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-6, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-6”), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. Upon adoption, a convertible debt instrument will be accounted for as a single liability at amortized cost unless (a) the convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or (b) the convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. These changes will reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income for entities that have issued a convertible instrument that was bifurcated according to previously existing rules. ASU 2020-6 also requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and the treasury stock method will be no longer available. The new guidance is effective for public entities excluding smaller reporting companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The company adopted early ASU 2020-6 on January 1, 2022.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are primarily used in our revenue recognition, long-lived asset impairments and adjustments, deferred tax, stock-based compensation, and reserves for legal matters.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Crown Equity considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with ASC 718 requiring employee equity awards to be accounted for under the fair value method. Accordingly, share-based compensation is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to other than employees in accordance with ASU 2018-07 Equity instruments issued to other than employees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments and is recognized as expense over the service period. The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and the closing price of the company's common stock for common share issuances.
Revenue Recognition
The core principles of revenue recognition under ASC 606 include the following five criteria:
1. | Identify the contract with the customer | |
|
|
|
|
| Contract with our customers may be oral, written, or implied. A written and signed invoice stating the terms and conditions is the Company’ preferred method. The terms of a written contract may be contained within the body of an invoice or in an email. No work is commenced without an understanding between the Company and our client that a valid contract exists. |
2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract | |
|
|
|
|
| Our sales and account management teams define the scope of services to be offered, to ensure all parties are in agreement and obligations are being delivered to the customer as promised. The performance obligation may not be fully identified in a mutually signed contract, but may be outlined in email correspondence, face-to-face meetings, additional proposals or scopes of work, or phone conversations. |
3. | Determine the transaction price | |
|
|
|
|
| Pricing is discussed and identified by the operations team prior to submitting an invoice to the customer. |
4. | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
|
|
|
|
| If a contract involves multiple obligations, the transaction pricing is allocated accordingly, during the performance obligation phase. |
5. | Recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation | |
|
|
|
|
| The Company uses digital marketing that includes digital advertising, SEO management and digital ad support. We provide whether presenting a vibrant but simple message about our clients that will enlighten their audience or deploying an influential digital marketing campaign on our online site or across one or multiple social media platforms. Revenue is recognized when ads are run on Company’s advertising platform.
The company generates analytical reports monthly or as required to show how the ad dollars were spent and how the targeting resulted in click-through. The report satisfies the performance obligation, regardless of the outcome or effectiveness of the campaign. |

Deferred revenue is based on cash received or billings in excess of revenue recognized until revenue recognition criteria are met. Client prepayments are deferred and recognized over future periods as services are delivered or performed.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company establishes an allowance for bad debts through a review of several factors including historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, and financial condition of our customers. The Company does not generally require collateral for our accounts receivable. There were no accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Investments
The Company values its trading investments at market value based on the trading price at the balance sheet date. Any gains and losses are recorded in the period the gain or loss occurred. Investments include common stocks, exchange traded funds and money market mutual funds. Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are recorded as Trading Securities at Fair Value on the Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of such equity securities are reported in the Statements of Income.

General and Administrative Expenses
Crown Equity's general and administrative expenses consisted of the following types of expenses during 2022 and 2021. Compensation expense, payroll expense, rent, travel and entertainment, legal and accounting, utilities, web sites, office expenses, depreciation, and other administrative related expenses.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at the cost of acquisition or construction and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs associated with repair and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with improvements which extend the life, increase the capacity, or improve the efficiency of our property and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the related asset. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined based on either expected future cash flows at a rate we believe incorporates the time value of money. No indications of impairments were identified in 2022 or 2021.

When an entity has a net loss, it is prohibited from including potential common shares in the computation of diluted per share amounts. Accordingly, we have utilized basic shares outstanding to calculate both basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Uncertain tax position
The Company also follows the guidance related to accounting for income tax uncertainties. In accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold,
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value.
| F-12 |
| Table of Contents |
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our cash and brokerage accounts are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and estimated as follows.

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES
The Company follows ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. During 2009, there was a change in control of the Company. Under section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code such a change in control negates much of the tax loss carry forward and deferred income tax. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry forwards. For federal income tax purposes, the Company uses the accrual basis of accounting, the same that is used for financial reporting purposes.
The Company did not have taxable income during 2022 or 2021.
The Company's deferred tax assets consisted of the following as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

ITEM 9: CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There were no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure during the relevant period.
ITEM 9A: CONTROLS & PROCEDURES
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We have not made any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report on Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 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. As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act that designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations, a system of 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 due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The material weaknesses relate to the following:
| - | Lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting, as our financial reporting and all accounting functions are performed by our Officers. Our Officers do not possess accounting expertise and our company does not have an audit committee. |
|
|
|
| - | Lack of a formal review process that includes multiple levels of review, as all accounting and financial reporting functions are performed by our Officers and the work is not reviewed by anyone. |
|
|
|
| - | Lack of expertise in accounting for and valuation of equity and marketable securities transactions. |
|
|
|
| - | Lack of controls over the identification and approval of related parties and transactions. |
These weaknesses are due to the company's lack of working capital to hire additional staff. To remedy the material weaknesses, we intend to engage another accountant to assist with financial reporting as soon as our finances will allow.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to the 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.
The Company's management carried out an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. The Company's management based its evaluation on criteria set forth in the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, management has concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2022.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The Officers and Directors of the Company will devote most of their time to the Company; however, there will be occasions when the time requirements of the Company's business conflict with the demands of their other business and investment activities. Such conflicts may require that the Company attempt to employ additional personnel. There is no assurance that the services of such persons will be available or that they can be obtained upon terms favorable to the Company.
There is no procedure in place which would allow the Officers and Directors to resolve potential conflicts in an arms-length fashion. Accordingly, they will be required to use their discretion to resolve them in a manner which they consider appropriate.
| 12 |
| Table of Contents |
The Company's Officers and Directors may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of a portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. It is anticipated that a substantial premium over the initial cost of such shares may be paid by the purchaser in conjunction with any sale of shares by the Company's Officers and Directors which is made as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. The fact that a substantial premium may be paid to the Company's Officers and Directors to acquire their shares creates a potential conflict of interest for them in satisfying their fiduciary duties to the Company and its other shareholders. Even though such a sale could result in a substantial profit to them, they would be legally required to make the decision based upon the best interests of the Company and the Company's other shareholders, rather than their own personal pecuniary benefit.
The Company previously adopted a Code of Ethics in 2004. The Company has revised the Code of Ethics and is adopting a new Code of Ethics which applies to its directors as well as to its officers including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer. A copy of the Code of Ethics is attached as an Exhibit to this Report and is also available on the Company's website, www.crownequityholdings.com .
