PART I
Item 1: Description of Business
Allure Worldwide, Inc. (“Allure” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on September 26, 2018, to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company has had no operations to date. Other than issuing shares to its original shareholders, the Company never commenced any operational activities. Effective as of November 18, 2019, the Company redomiciled to Nevada.
The Company was formed with the intention of seeking to acquire the assets or shares of an entity actively engaged in business which generates revenues, in exchange for its securities. As such, the Company is defined as a “shell” company, whose sole purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger or acquisition with a private entity.
The proposed business activities described above classify the Company as a “blank check” company. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of “blank check” companies in their prospective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in the Company’s securities until such time as the Company has successfully implemented its business plan described herein.
On January 11, 2021, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Genvor Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Genvor”) to acquire (the “Acquisition”) Genvor in consideration of (i) the payment of $150,000 by Genvor to Allure; (ii) Allure’s founding shareholders transferring 19,000,000 shares of common stock to Genvor’s shareholders, constituting 95% of Allure’s 20,000,000 total outstanding shares; and (iii) Allure’s founding shareholders retaining 1,000,000 shares of Allure’s common stock. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after closing of the Acquisition and for a period of two years following commencement of trading of Allure’s common stock, the parties agreed that Allure will make additional issuances of Allure’s common stock to the founding shareholders to ensure that in the aggregate they maintain their 5% ownership of Allure’s outstanding common stock. On March 2, 2022, the Company and Genvor entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) to consummate the Acquisition, and pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Genvor Acquisition, Corp., a Delaware corporation, will merge (the “Merger”) with and into Genvor, with each share of Genvor common stock issued immediately prior to the time of the merger automatically converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of the Company. The Company anticipates filing a certificate of merger to effect the Acquisition and Merger as soon as audited financial statements of Genvor as of and for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2021 and 2020, are complete (and any interim financial statements for subsequent fiscal quarters have been completed).

Our future dividend policy will be determined from time to time by our board of directors.
Securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans
The Company does not have a stock option plan.
Penny Stock
Our common stock is considered “penny stock” under the rules the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that:

| · | contains a description of the nature and level of risks in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; |
| --- | --- |
| · | contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities’ laws; contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; |
| · | contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; |
| · | defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and |
| · | contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. |
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with:
| · | bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; |
|---|---|
| · | the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; |
| · | the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the marker for such stock; and |
| · | monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. |
In addition, the penny stock rules that require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.
Related Stockholder Matters

DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY
Allure Worldwide, Inc. (“Allure” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on September 26, 2018, to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company has had no operations to date. Other than issuing shares to its original shareholders, the Company never commenced any operational activities.

Going Concern Qualification
Several conditions and events cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred cumulative net losses of $65,540 since inception and requires capital for contemplated operational activities to take place. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with respect to operations include raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to pursue such business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can merge with or be acquired by another entity. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Our operating results for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the changes between those periods for the respective items, are summarized as follows:
| Year Ended | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| **** | September 30, | **** | Change | **** | |||||
| **** | 2021 | **** | 2020 | **** | Amount | ||||
| Operating loss | $ | (23,824 | ) | $ | (4,870 | ) | $ | (18,954 | ) |
| Net loss | $ | (23,824 | ) | $ | (4,870 | ) | $ | (18,954 | ) |
Revenues
We did not earn any revenues during the year ended September 30, 2021 or 2020.
Operating Loss
Our loss from operations increased to $23,824 during the year ended September 30, 2021, from an operating loss of $4,870 in the comparative year ended September 30, 2020. The following table presents operating expenses for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:
| **** | Year Ended | **** | **** | **** | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| **** | September 30, | Change | **** | |||||
| **** | 2021 | 2020 | Amount | Percentage | ||||
| General and administrative expenses | $ | 23,824 | $ | 4,870 | $ | 18,954 | 389 | % |
| Total Operating Expenses | $ | 23,824 | $ | 4,870 | $ | 18,954 | 389 | % |
We realized an increase of $18,954 in general and administrative expenses during the year ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year related to auditor and filing fees.
Net Loss
The Company incurred an $23,824 net loss during the year ended September 30, 2021, compared to net loss of $4,870 in the prior fiscal year. This is primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses during the year ended September 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Based upon our current financial condition, we do not have sufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months. We intend to fund operations through debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements. We plan to seek additional financing in a private equity offering to secure funding for operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
Working Capital
The following table presents our working capital position as of September 30, 2021 and 2020:
| **** | As of | **** | **** | **** | **** | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| **** | September 30, | **** | Change | **** | ||||||

| Working Capital | $ | (27,670 | ) | $ | (17,346 | ) | $ | 10,324 | 60 | % |
The change in working capital during the year ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to an increase in current liabilities of $10,324. Current liabilities increased due to accrued expenses paid by a related party.
Cash Flow
We fund our operations with cash received from advances from officers and related parties and issuances of equity.
The following tables presents our cash flow for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:

For the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash flows for operating activities were $0 since capital contributions from a shareholder were used to pay expenses. To date, a bank account has not been established.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, no cashflows were provided by or used in investing activities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, no cashflows were provided by or used in financing activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies
*Use of Estimates.*The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the amortization period for intangible assets, valuation and impairment valuation of intangible assets, depreciable lives of the web site and property and equipment, valuation of warrant and beneficial conversion feature debt discounts, valuation of share-based payments and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
Investments in Equity
We measure all equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value with the change in fair value included in net income. We use quoted market prices to determine the fair value of equity securities with readily determinable fair values. For equity securities without readily determinable fair values, we have elected the measurement alternative under which we measure these investments at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Management assesses each of these investments on an individual basis.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Directors and Stockholders of Allure Worldwide, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Allure Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses since inception, has a working capital deficit, negative cash flows from operations and an accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit, 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 audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ Turner, Stone & Company, L.L.P.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2020.

Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
Allure Worldwide, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on September 26, 2018 with the principal business objective of merging with or being acquired by another entity and is therefore a blank check company. On July 16, 2021, the Company redomiciled to Nevada.
Basis of Presentation
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financing or establish itself as a profitable business. At September 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $64,540 and for the year ended September 30, 2021, the Company realized net loss of $23,824. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with respect to operations include raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to pursue such business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can merge with or be acquired by another entity. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations. The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation.
The carrying amount reported in the accompanying balance sheets for accounts payable, accrued expenses, and amounts due to a related party approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There were no cash or cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount reported in the accompanying balance sheets for accounts payable, accrued expenses, and amounts due to a related party approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.
| F-6 |

| Table of Contents |
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
The Company follows ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. As of September 30, 2021, no additional accrual for income taxes is necessary. The Company’s policy is to recognize both interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits expected to result in payment of cash within one year are classified as accrued liabilities, while those expected beyond one year are classified as other liabilities. The Company has not recorded any interest or penalties since its inception. The Company is required to file income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and the years since inception remain open for examination by federal and/or state tax jurisdictions. The Company is currently not under examination by any other tax jurisdictions for any tax year.
Earnings (loss) Per Share of Common Stock
FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, provides for calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There were recently issued accounting standard updates most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on our statements of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 3. Stockholders’ Deficit
Common stock
The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 300,000,000 shares with a $0.001 par value.
On September 26, 2018 the Company’s two officers and directors (the CEO and the Secretary) were issued 5,000,000 common shares each for services. The value of the total shares issued was $10,000.
On September 26, 2018, Lawson Pedigo, and John Gladdis were issued 4,600,000 and 4,600,000 shares respectively and Benny Doro was issued 800,000 shares for services valued at a total of $10,000.
During the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s CEO paid $13,500 and $3,370, respectively, in accrued expenses directly to vendors on behalf of the Company. Since these amounts are not to be repaid to him, they are accounted for as additional paid-in capital in the accompanying financial statements (Note 5).
There were 20,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Preferred stock
The authorized preferred stock of the Company consists of 20,000,000 shares with a $0.001 par value and none were issued or outstanding at September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Note 4. Income Taxes
Any net loss carryforward may be subject to the 382 limitation upon a change in control as defined therein.
The components of income tax expense for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 consist of the following:
| 2021 | **** | 2020 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Federal tax statutory rate | 21.0 | % | 21.0 | % | ||
| State tax statutory rate | 3.5 | % | 4.5 | % | ||
| Valuation allowance | -24.5 | % | -25.5 | % | ||
| 0.0 | % | 0.0 | % |
During the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred net losses of $23,824 and $4,870, respectively, which resulted in net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. The losses resulted in an accumulated deferred tax asset of approximately $11,200 and $5,300 at September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, at the effective rate of 25%.
| F-8 |

| Table of Contents |
We did not provide any current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because we have experienced operating losses since inception. Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, when it is more likely than not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income the Company must allow for this future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carryforwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carryforward period. The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021.
Note 5. Related Party Transactions
During the period ended September 30, 2018, Robert Bubeck, CEO paid $3,846 of expenses on behalf of the Company. The amount due to related party at both September 30, 2021 and 2020 is $3,846 and is due on demand and non-interest bearing.
During the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, Robert Bubeck, CEO paid $13,500 and $3,370 of accrued expenses on behalf of the Company. Since these amounts to the shareholder are not expected to be repaid, they have been accounted for as additional paid-in capital in the accompanying financial statements.
During the year ended September 30, 2021, Genvor Inc. (“Genvor”, Note 7) paid operating expenses on behalf of the Company consisting of filing fees totaling $3,824 and audit fees totaling $12,415. These payments resulted in a total of $16,239 due to Genvor at September 30, 2021 in the accompanying financial statements. Additionally, any legal fees were absorbed by Genvor in connection with the Exchange Agreement (Note 7).
The Company does not own or rent property. The office space is provided by an officer at no charge.
Note 6. Commitments & Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Subscription Agreement and Cash Held in Escrow
On February 20, 2019, the Company entered into a subscription escrow agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) with Branch Banking and Trust Company (BB&T). This Trust Agreement was established for the subscription agreement proceeds raised pursuant to a Rule 419 S-1 offering. The balance held in trust at September 30, 2021 and 2020 totaled $19,705 and $10,201, respectively.
All offering proceeds and all securities issued in connection with the offering are held in escrow and, except for the 10% of proceeds that may be released to the Company, will remain in escrow until the completion of an acquisition or the return of all funds after a lapse of 18 months when no acquisition has been consummated (see Note 7).

Note 7. Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the balance sheet through the date of this filing and determined there were no events to disclose except the following.
On January 11, 2021, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Genvor Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Genvor”) to acquire (the “Acquisition”) Genvor in consideration of (i) the payment of $150,000 by Genvor to Allure; (ii) Allure’s founding shareholders transferring 19,000,000 shares of common stock to Genvor’s shareholders, constituting 95% of Allure’s 20,000,000 total outstanding shares; and (iii) Allure’s founding shareholders retaining 1,000,000 shares of Allure’s common stock. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after closing of the Acquisition and for a period of two years following commencement of trading of Allure’s common stock, the parties agreed that Allure will make additional issuances of Allure’s common stock to the founding shareholders to ensure that in the aggregate they maintain their 5% ownership of Allure’s outstanding common stock. On March 2, 2022, the Company and Genvor entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) to consummate the Acquisition, and pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Genvor Acquisition, Corp., a Delaware corporation, will merge (the “Merger”) with and into Genvor, with each share of Genvor common stock issued immediately prior to the time of the merger automatically converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of the Company. The Company anticipates filing a certificate of merger to effect the Acquisition and Merger as soon as audited financial statements of Genvor as of and for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2021 and 2020, are complete (and any interim financial statements for subsequent fiscal quarters have been completed).

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
We have had no disagreements with our accountants required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated 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) as of the year ended September 30, 2021, covered by this Form 10-K. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and related financial information appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The financial statements and notes have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The management of the Company is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process 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. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| · | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; |
|---|---|
| · | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of directors of the Company; and |
| · | 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. |
Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
With the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2021, based upon the framework in Internal Control –Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013. Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2021, the Company had material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were not effective. Specifically, management identified the following material weaknesses at September 30, 2021:
| 23 | |
|---|---|
| Table of Contents | |
| 1. | Lack of oversight by independent directors in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; |
| --- | --- |
| 2. | Lack of functioning audit committee, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; |
| 3. | Insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting and to allow for proper monitoring controls over accounting; |
| 4. | Insufficient written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. |
To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures:
| · | The Company will add sufficient number of independent directors to the board and appoint an audit committee. |
|---|---|
| · | The Company will add sufficient knowledgeable accounting personnel to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements. |
| · | Upon the hiring of additional accounting personnel, the Company will develop and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures. |
The additional hiring is contingent upon the Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt for its continued operational activities and corporate expenses. Management provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.
We understand that remediation of material weaknesses and deficiencies in internal controls are a continuing work in progress due to the issuance of new standards and promulgations. However, remediation of any known deficiency is among our highest priorities. Our management will periodically assess the progress and sufficiency of our ongoing initiatives and make adjustments as and when necessary.
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide, and this annual report does not include, an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as set forth above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) provides that a director or officer will not be individually liable unless it is proven that (i) the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law. Section 78.7502 of NRS permits a company to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding if the officer or director (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, if a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the officer or director was unlawful. Section 78.751 of NRS permits a Nevada company to indemnify its officers and directors against expenses incurred by them in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding as they are incurred and in advance of final disposition thereof, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by the company. Section 78.751 of NRS further permits the company to grant its directors and officers additional rights of indemnification under its articles of incorporation or bylaws or otherwise. Section 78.752 of NRS provides that a Nevada company may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the company has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that no director or officer of the Company will be personally liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law, or (ii) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of NRS. In addition, our Bylaws implement the indemnification and insurance provisions permitted by Chapter 78 of the NRS by providing that the Company shall indemnify its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS and may, if and to the extent authorized by the board of directors, so indemnify its officers and any other person whom it has the power to indemnify against liability, reasonable expense or other matter whatsoever; and the Company may at the discretion of the board of directors purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who holds or who has held any position identified in the paragraph above against any and all liability incurred by such person in any such position or arising out of his status as such.

Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling the company pursuant to provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Director Compensation
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we did not have an independent director. Directors that were employees were not paid any fees for their role as director.
Involvement on Certain Material Legal Proceedings During the Last Five Years
No director, officer, significant employee or consultant has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, exclusive of traffic violations.
No bankruptcy petitions have been filed by or against any business or property of any director, officer, significant employee or consultant of the Company nor has any bankruptcy petition been filed against a partnership or business association where these persons were general partners or executive officers.
No director, officer, significant employee or consultant has been permanently or temporarily enjoined, barred, suspended or otherwise limited from involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities.
No director, officer or significant employee has been convicted of violating a federal or state securities or commodities law.
Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance
The Company does not have directors’ and officers’ liability insurance insuring our directors and officers against liability for acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
Code of Ethics
We intend to adopt a code of ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, but have not done so to date due to our relatively small size. We intend to adopt a written code of ethics in the near future.
Corporate Governance and Board Independence
Our Board of Directors consists of three directors and has not established a Nominating or Governance Committees as standing committees. The Board does not have an executive committee or any committees performing a similar function. We are not currently listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent.
Due to our lack of operations and size, and since we are not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we are not subject to any listing requirements mandating the establishment of any particular committees; all functions of a nominating/governance committee were performed by our whole board of directors. Our board of directors intends to appoint such persons and form such committees as are required to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by the national securities exchanges as necessary. Our board of directors does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees at the early stage of the company’s development, and our board of directors believes that the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our board of directors.
| 27 |
|---|
| Table of Contents |
We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date.
Board Leadership Structure and the Board’s Role in Risk Oversight.
The Board of Directors is led by a Chairman, and at this time our Chairman is also our Chief Executive Officer. Although our sole officer is our sole director, the Board believes that the most effective leadership structure at this time is not to separate the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. A combined structure provides the Company with a single leader who represents the company to our stockholders, regulators, business partners and other stakeholders, among other reasons set forth below.
| ● | This structure creates efficiency in the preparation of the meeting agendas and related Board materials as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer works directly with those individuals preparing the necessary Board materials and is more connected to the overall daily operations of the Company. Agendas are also prepared with the permitted input of the full Board of Directors allowing for any concerns or risks of any individual director to be discussed as deemed appropriate. The Board believes that the Company has benefited from this structure, and Mr. Perry’s continuation in the combined role of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is in the best interest of the stockholders. |
|---|---|
| ● | The Company believes that the combined structure is necessary and allows for efficient and effective oversight, given the Company’s relatively small size, its corporate strategy and focus. |
| --- | --- |
The Board of Directors does not have a specific role in risk oversight of the Company. The Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and employees of the Company provide the Board of Directors with information regarding the Company’s risks.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of the 3^rd^ day of March, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), by and among Allure Worldwide Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Parent”), Genvor Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), and Genvor Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Subsidiary”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Article 9.
Background
| A. | The respective Boards of Directors of the parties have (i) determined that it is in the best interests of such corporations and their respective security holders to consummate a merger of Merger Subsidiary with and into Company (the “Merger”) and (ii) approved and declared advisable this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; |
|---|---|
| B. | Pursuant to the Merger, among other things, the outstanding shares of capital stock of Company will be converted into the right to receive upon Closing (as defined in this Agreement) and thereafter, the Merger Consideration (as defined in this Agreement); and |
| C. | The parties to this Agreement intend to adopt this Agreement as a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and intend that the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be undertaken pursuant to that plan. Accordingly, the parties intend that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization,” within the meaning of Code Section 368(a), and that, with respect to the Merger and within the meaning of Code Section 368(b), each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and Company will be a “party to a reorganization.” |
Agreement
In consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties, and covenants contained in this Agreement, each party hereby agrees as follows:
ARTICLE 1
Merger
At the Merger Time (as defined herein), and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law or any successor statute (the “DGCL”), Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Subsidiary will cease, and Company will continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Company, as the surviving corporation after the Merger, is hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Company.”
1.1 Effects of Merger .
(a) From and after the Merger Time, (i) Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as in effect immediately prior to the Merger Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company, and (ii) Company’s bylaws as in effect immediately prior to the Merger Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Company.
| 1 |
|---|
(b) From and after the Merger Time and until further altered or amended in accordance with applicable law: (i) all of the rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises and authority—both public and private—of Company and Merger Subsidiary shall vest in the Surviving Company; (ii) all of the assets and property of Company and Merger Subsidiary of every kind, nature and description—real, personal and mixed, and both tangible and intangible—and every interest therein, wheresoever located, including without limitation all debts or other obligations belonging or due to Company or Merger Subsidiary, all claims and all causes of action, shall be vested absolutely and unconditionally in the Surviving Company; and (iii) all debts and obligations of Company and Merger Subsidiary, all rights of creditors of Company or Merger Subsidiary and all liens or security interests encumbering any of the property of Company or Merger Subsidiary shall be vested in the Surviving Company and shall remain in full force and effect without modification or impairment and shall be enforceable against the Surviving Company and its assets and properties with the same full force and effect as if such debts, obligations, liens or security interests had been originally incurred or created by the Surviving Company in its own name and for its own behalf. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Surviving Company specifically assumes all continuing obligations which Company or Merger Subsidiary would otherwise have to indemnify its officers and directors, to the fullest extent currently provided in the Surviving Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws and pursuant to the DGCL, with respect to any and all claims arising out of actions taken or omitted by Company’s officers and directors prior to the Merger Time.
(c) Each of Parent, Company and Merger Subsidiary shall use its best efforts to take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the Merger in accordance with the DGCL at the Merger Time. If, at any time after the Merger Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to all properties, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of either Company or Merger Subsidiary, the officers of Parent, and the officers of Surviving Company on behalf of Company and Merger Subsidiary, shall take all such lawful and necessary action.
(d) Subject to the provisions of Article 6 and Article 7, the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the ”Closing,” and the date of the Closing will be referred to interchangeably as the “Closing Date,” as the case may be) shall take place at such location, on such date and at such time as Company and Parent mutually agree at the earliest practicable time after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in Article 6, but in no event later than five business days after all such conditions have been satisfied or waived, or on such other date as may be mutually agreed by the parties hereto. On the Closing date, to effect the Merger, the parties will cause a Certificate of Merger under the DGCL (the “Certificate(s) of Merger”) to be filed with the State of Delaware. The Merger shall be effective upon the filing of the Certificate(s) of Merger (the “Merger Time”).
1.2 Effect on Company Capital Stock and Merger Subsidiary Capital Stock. To effectuate the Merger, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Merger Time:
(a) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Time will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive one (1) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock. Parent will issue to each holder of Company Common Stock certificates or Book Entries evidencing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined in accordance with the foregoing. Immediately after the Merger Time, holders of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger shall hold approximately 95% of the issued and outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock (including shares reserved for issuance pursuant to stock option plan(s)).
| 2 |
|---|
(b) Each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Time will be automatically converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Company; and
(c) All shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon the surrender of and exchange of Company Common Stock for shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 1.2 will be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock.
1.3 Rights of Holders of Company Capital Stock.
(a) From and after the Merger Time and until surrendered for exchange, each outstanding stock certificate or Book Entry that, immediately prior to the Merger Time, represented shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed for all purposes, to evidence ownership of and to represent the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock will have been converted pursuant to Section 1.2(a) above. The record holder of each such outstanding certificate or Book Entry representing shares of Company Common Stock, will, immediately after the Merger Time, be entitled to vote the shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted on any matters on which the holders of record of the Parent Common Stock, as of any date subsequent to the Merger Time, are entitled to vote. In any matters relating to such certificates or Book Entries of Company Common Stock, Parent may rely conclusively upon the record of stockholders maintained by Company containing the names and addresses of the holders of record of Company Common Stock on the Closing Date.
(b) At the Merger Time, Parent shall have reserved a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Parent Common Stock for issuance in connection with the issuance of the Merger Consideration upon automatic conversion of Company Common Stock into Parent Common Stock at the Merger Time.
1.4 Procedure for Surrender and Exchange of Certificates .
(a) After the Merger Time, each record holder of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock will be entitled to receive certificates or Book Entries representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which shares of Company Common Stock shall have been converted as provided in Section 1.2 hereof. Parent shall not be obligated to deliver certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock, to which any holder of shares of Company Common Stock is entitled, until such holder surrenders the certificate(s), if any, representing such Company Common Stock. Upon surrender, each certificate evidencing Company Common Stock shall be canceled. If there is a transfer of Company Common Stock ownership that has not been registered in the transfer records of Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Parent Common Stock may be issued to a Person other than the Person in whose name the certificate so surrendered is registered if: (x) upon presentation to the Secretary of Parent, such certificate, if any, shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, (y) the Person requesting such transfer shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of shares of or certificates, if any, representing shares of Parent Common Stock to a Person other than the registered holder of such shares or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable, and (z) the issuance of such shares of or certificates, if any, representing shares of Parent Common Stock shall not, in the sole discretion of Parent, violate the requirements of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act with respect to the private placement of Parent Common Stock that will result from the Merger.
| 3 |
|---|
(b) Any shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger will not be transferable except (1) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (2) upon receipt by Parent of a written opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent to the effect that the proposed transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and relevant state securities laws.

Termination
7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Merger Time:
(a) by mutual consent of Company and Parent, if the Board of Directors of each so determines by vote of a majority of the members of its entire board;
(b) by Parent, if Company shall have breached any of its representations or failed to perform any of its covenants herein, which breach or failure to perform (i) causes the condition set forth in Section 6.2(b) not to be satisfied, and (ii) is incapable of being cured or has not been cured within 10 business days after the giving of written notice of such breach or failure to perform; provided, however, that Parent may only terminate this Agreement pursuant this Section 7.1(b) if the subject breach or failure to perform would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent and the Surviving Company taken as a whole;
(c) by Company, if Parent or Merger Subsidiary shall have breached any of their representations or failed to perform any of their covenants herein, which breach or failure to perform (i) causes the condition set forth in Section 6.3(b) not to be satisfied, and (ii) is incapable of being cured or has not been cured within 10 business days after the giving of written notice of such breach or failure to perform; provided, however, that Company may only terminate this Agreement pursuant this Section 7.1(c) if the subject breach or failure to perform would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Company and the Surviving Company taken as a whole;
(d) by either Company or Parent if the Merger Time has not occurred on or before February 28, 2022, or such later date as Company and Parent may mutually agree (unless the failure to consummate the Merger by such date shall be due to the action or failure to act of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement in breach of such party’s obligations under this Agreement).
Any party desiring to terminate this Agreement shall give prior written notice of such termination and the reasons therefor to the other parties.
