Category I Polypeptide Freeze-dried Powder
1. JI MAI—Bovine Cardiac Vascular Active Peptide

Figure 1 – packaging design for Ji Mai Cardiac Vascular Active Peptide
The vascular endothelial cells exist vascular wall of bovine have a complex enzyme system, which can synthesize and secrete a variety of bioactive substances, as well as tissue fibrinogen and prostacyclin, endothelin (which has a strong vasoconstrictive effect, also known as endothelium contraction factor), and vascular skin cell relaxation factor which has vasodilated effect.
Bovine cardiac vascular active peptide is a protein peptide of vascular homology (amino acid type and its sequence) which made from healthy and fresh bovine cardiac vascular tissues as raw materials. It is made in a closed environment at low temperature using medical freeze-dried equipment and is processed through biological enzymolysis, enzyme digestion, separation, purification, ultrafiltration and other extraction process to structural polypeptide in a freeze-dried powder form. The molecular weight of the product is optimized via bioengineering for easy absorption by humans. There is no pigment, preservatives and other artificial additives in the product, and is suitable for all kinds of physical conditions of people to use.

Biocompatibility (amino acid sequence and structure convergence of peptides) refers to the good matching degree between basic protein peptides and host cells and tissues. Whether it is the skeleton of new tissue before being absorbed, or it is absorbed and assimilated into the host to become a part of the host, it has good compatibility with the matrix of similar tissue, and becomes a part of the normal physiological function of cells and tissues.
2. Double Proline AG – 3D Active Collagen Peptide
DPAG - Drinkable Cosmetics

Figure 2 - packaging design for 3D Active Collagen Peptide
There is a substance in human body called cathepsin K, which is slowly degrading collagen content of tissue while ageing. It will result that active collagen is gradually reduced and lost. The appearance of the body is the loss of elasticity, relaxation and relaxation of the body. The interior of the body is the decrease of the cell quantity and the collapse of the tissue.
Sea cucumber, deer tendon, eel, fish maw, donkey skin all have significant common characteristics – gelatinous consistencies, which contains higher proline, hydroxyproline, arginine and glycine. In mammals, ox tendon has the highest content of collagen.
80% of the human skin made by collagen; the molecular weight of collagen in glial food is 300000 daltons. The molecular size of the gliadin food is too large, it is very difficult for human digestive enzymes to decompose it, and its digestion and absorption rate is very limited.
By using healthy and fresh bovine or ox tendon as raw materials, our DPAG product is made in a closed environment at low temperature using medical freeze-dried equipment and was processed through biological enzymolysis, enzyme digestion, separation, purification, ultrafiltration and other extraction process to structural polypeptide in a freeze-dried powder form. The molecular weight of the product is 1920da and is optimized via the bioengineering technical for easy absorption by humans. There is no pigment, preservatives and other artificial additives in the product.
Our DPAG product is designed to be an easily absorbed bioactive collagen.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
There are no unreported sales of equity securities at December 31, 2020.
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
The Company does not have any equity compensation plans.
Penny Stock Regulations
The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1.00 million, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).
For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information called for by this Item.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 1, 1999, and established a fiscal year end of December 31.
Going Concern
To date the Company has little operations or revenues and consequently has incurred recurring losses from operations. No revenues are anticipated until we complete the financing we endeavor to obtain, as described in this Form 10-K, and implement our initial business plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund our business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of share subscriptions. On August 20, 2019 the Company sold 41,000,000 shares of common stock to its founders for a subscription amount of $41,000. On August 20, 2019, the Company sold 39,000,000 shares of common stock for a subscription amount of $215,504.
We have no outstanding loans.
The Company plans to raise additional funds through debt or equity offerings. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise any capital through this or any other offerings.
PLAN OF OPERATION
We are an early stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from our nutraceutical and dietary supplements business during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.
Our plan of operation for the 12 months following the offering the subject of this prospectus is to locate a suitable location in the United States in which to construct production facilities for our products, design and construct the facilities for such a location and sell our products.
The Company believes it can satisfy its cash requirements through the fiscal year end of December 31, 2021, from its cash of $248,569. As of December 31, 2020, we had a working capital balance of $248,569.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
As of December 31, 2020, we suffered from a working capital balance of $248,569. As a result, our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon improving our profitability and the continuing financial support from our stockholders or other capital sources. Management believes that the continuing financial support from the existing shareholders and external financing will provide the additional cash to meet our obligations as they become due. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as shareholders’ equity, or that are not reflected in our financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
COVID-19
We continue to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and our Company and have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on our financial position and results of our operations, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of this filing. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and to the understanding of our financial results:
Basis of Accounting
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting and are presented in United States Dollars.
Basic Earnings (loss) per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock.
Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Due to the limited level of operations, the Company has not had to make material assumptions or estimates other than the assumption that the Company is a going concern.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Occasional transactions may occur in Chinese Renminbi or Australian Dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average monthly rates are used to translate expenses. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of net income (loss).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash and current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Start-Up expenses
As a start-up company, the costs associated with start-up activities are expensed as incurred. Accordingly, start-up costs associated with the Company’s formation have been included in the Company’s general and administrative expenses.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major repairs and betterments are capitalized and normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Upon retirement or sale of an asset, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Subsequent Events
None through date of this filing.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders & Board of Directors
Goldenwell Biotech, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Goldenwell Biotech, Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, and the related notes (collectively referred to as “financial statements”) for the year ended December 31, 2020 and from the period from August 20, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 and for the period from August 23, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the 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 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 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
As described further in Note #3 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses each year from inception through December 31, 2020 and expects to incur additional losses in the future.
We determined the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is a critical audit matter due to the estimation and uncertainty regarding the Company’s future cash flows and the risk of bias in management’s judgments and assumptions in estimating these cash flows.
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s assertion on its ability to continue as a going concern included the following, among others:
• We reviewed the Company’s working capital and liquidity ratios and forecasted revenue, operating expenses, and uses and sources of cash used in management’s assessment of whether the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date. This testing included inquiries with management, comparison of prior period forecasts to actual results, consideration of positive and negative evidence impacting management’s forecasts, the Company’s financing arrangements in place as of the report date, market and industry factors and consideration of the Company’s relationships with its financing partners.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #3 to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note #3. 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 audits 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 audits 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 included 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.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2020.

GOLDENWELL BIOTECH INC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2020
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GOLDENWELL BIOTECH INC. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 20, 2019. The Company is in the development stage whose purpose is R&D, production and sales health cares and supplements products.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development Stage Company
The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities.” The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts to the development of its business plans. The Company has elected to adopt early application of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements; and does not present or disclose inception-to-date information and other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915.
Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Start-Up Costs
In accordance with ASC 720, “Start-up Costs”, the Company expenses all costs incurred in connection with the start-up and organization of the Company.
Cash
Cash includes cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months from inception, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.
The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
ASC 820 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, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
The Company has no assets or liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenues since inception and sustained an accumulated net loss of $6,324 for the year ended on December 31, 2020. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, its ability to generate revenues and its ability to obtain capital from third parties. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES
The reconciliation of income tax benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 21% for the year ended December 31, 2020 to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:
| For the year ended<br> <br>December 31 | **** |
|---|
| **** | 2020 | | **** | 2019 | | |
| Income tax benefit at statutory rate | $ | (1,328 | ) | | (485 | ) |
| Change in valuation allowance | | 1,328 | | | 485 | |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2020
NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES (continued)
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the Company’s net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020 is as follows:
| December 31 | **** | December 31 | **** |
|---|
| **** | 2020 | | **** | 2019 | | |
| Net operating loss carry forward | $ | 1,813 | | | 485 | |
| Valuation allowance | | (1,813 | ) | | (485 | ) |
| Net deferred tax assets | | — | | | — | |
The Company has approximately $8,635 of net operating losses (“NOL”) carried forward to offset taxable income, if any, in future years which expire commencing in fiscal 2037. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the assessment, management has established a full valuation allowance against all of the deferred tax asset relating to NOLs for every period because it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Authorized Stock
The Company has authorized 300,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Each common share entitles the holder to one vote, in person or proxy, on any matter on which action of the stockholders of the corporation is sought.
On August 20, 2019 the Company issued 41,000,000 shares of common stock to its founders for a subscription amount of $41,000. As of December 31, 2019, the subscription amount of $41,000 has been paid.
On August 20, 2019, the Company issued 39,000,000 shares of common stock for a subscription amount of $209,204. As of December 31, 2019, $207,904 of the subscription has been paid with the remaining $7,600 of the subscription has not yet been paid, and is reflected as a stock subscription receivable on the accompanying financial statements.
On December 1, 2020, the Company issued 11,500,000 shares of common stock for a subscription amount of $79,000. As of December 31, 2020, $1,000 of the subscription has been paid with the remaining $78,000 of the subscription has not yet been paid, and is reflected as a stock subscription receivable on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 6 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. On January 11th, 2021, the company issued 2,400,000 shares common stock, and the subscription amount of $11,400 has been paid. The company also issued 500,000 shares common stock as non-cash bonus. On February, 22, 2021, the company issued 1,600,000 shares of common stock, and the subscription amount of $80,000 has been paid.
The Company signed a three-year lease with M&M Highland Road Properties to rent the office space, starting from January 15, 2021.
On March 25, 2021, the Company purchased inventory of $103,125 from Australian Trefoil Heath Technology, which is owned by Li, Yang, the Treasurer of the Company. The treasurer also owns 1,000,000 shares of the Company. This transaction is a related party transaction.
Based on managements’ evaluation, no events have occurred that require disclosure or adjustments to the financial statement.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation and supervision of our President, who acts as our principal executive officer, and our Secretary, who acts as our principal financial officer, is responsible for our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified under SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our President and our Secretary, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of December 31, 2020 these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level. As discussed below, our internal control over financial reporting is an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process, including policies and procedures, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our President, who acts as both our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, performed an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Based on the results of this assessment, our management, including our President and our Secretary, concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2020, based on such criteria. Deficiencies existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (i) lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and (ii) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Management believes that the lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
In connection with our continued monitoring and maintenance of our controls procedures as part of the implementation of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we continue to review, test, and improve the effectiveness of our internal controls. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter and since the year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurances. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business but cannot assure that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

Director Qualifications
We believe that our directors should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values, consistent with our values and standards. They should have broad experience at the policy-making level in business or banking. They should be committed to enhancing stockholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. Their service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all director duties for us. Each director must represent the interests of all stockholders. When considering potential director candidates, the Board also considers the candidate’s character, judgment, diversity, age and skills, including financial literacy and experience in the context of our needs and the needs of the Board.
Term of Office
All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors will consist of no less than one member. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Director Independence
Our board of directors is currently composed of three members, none of whom qualifies as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To our knowledge, our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
| · | Any bankruptcy petition filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
|---|
| · | Any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
| · | Being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities or to be associated with any person practicing in banking or securities activities; |
| · | Being found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a Federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; |
| · | Being subject of, or a party to, any Federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of any Federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or |
| · | Being subject of or party to any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization, any registered entity or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. |
Significant Employees and Consultants
As of December 31, 2020, the Company has no significant employees. The Company is managed by our three officers and directors.

| Table of Contents |
Audit Committee and Conflicts of Interest
Since we do not have an audit, compensation or governance and nominating committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board of Directors established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company is an early stage company and has only one director, and to date, such director has been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our sole director and officer has the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships among our directors or officers. Other than as described above, we are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.
Stockholder Communications With the Board Of Directors
We have not implemented a formal policy or procedure by which our stockholders can communicate directly with our Board of Directors. Nevertheless, every effort has been made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board of Directors or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. We believe that we are responsive to stockholder communications, and therefore have not considered it necessary to adopt a formal process for stockholder communications with our Board. During the upcoming year, our Board will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt such a process.
Code of Ethics
The Company has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions.
Employment Agreements
We have no employment agreements with any of our directors.
Indemnification Agreements
We have no indemnification agreements with our officers, directors or any other person.
