PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
History of Our Company
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 29, 1998 under the name Weston International Development Corporation to conduct any lawful business, to exercise any lawful purpose and power, and to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Laws of Nevada. On July 28, 1998, its name was changed to Txon International Development Corporation.
On August 14, 2000, pursuant to a share exchange agreement dated August 10, 2000, by and among Main Edge International Limited (“Main Edge”), Virtual Edge Limited (“Virtual Edge”), Richard Ford, Jeanie Hildebrand and Gary Lewis, we acquired from Main Edge all of the shares of Virtual Edge (the “Acquisition”) in exchange for an aggregate of 1,961,175 shares of our common stock, which shares equaled 75.16% of Txon International’s issued and outstanding shares after giving effect to the Acquisition. On September 15, 2000, Txon International Development Corporation changed its name to China World Trade Corporation (“CWTD”).
On March 28, 2008, CWTD entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among CWTD, William Tsang (“Tsang”), Uonlive Limited, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Hong Kong SAR of the People’s Republic of China (“Uonlive”), Tsun Sin Man Samuel, Chairman of Uonlive (“Tsun”), Hui Chi Kit, Chief Financial Officer of Uonlive (“Hui”), Parure Capital Limited, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and parent of Uonlive (“Parure Capital”). Upon closing of the share exchange transaction contemplated under the Exchange Agreement, Tsun and Hui transferred all of their share capital in Parure Capital to CWTD in exchange for an aggregate of 150,000,000 shares of common stock of the Registrant and 500,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Registrant, which is convertible after six months from the date of issuance into 100 shares of common stock of the Registrant, thus causing Parure Capital to become a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant.
On July 2, 2008, the proposal to amend the articles of incorporation to change the name of the corporation to Uonlive Corporation was approved by the action of a majority of all shareholders entitled to vote on the record date and by CWTD’s Board of Directors. CWTD desired to change its name to truly reflect its new business as a holding company for Uonlive Limited, and possibly other companies that may be acquired in the future by the company (the “Company” or “Uonlive”).
On May 15, 2009, the Company approved the 1 for 100 reverse split of its common stock.
The Company initially ceased operations in early 2015. The Company has fully impaired all assets since the shutdown of its operations in 2015 and recorded the effects of this impairment as part of its discontinued operations.
On May 2, 2017, Parure Capital was struck off the BVI Register of Companies for non-payment of annual fees. Therefore, Parure Capital was no longer a subsidiary of the Company.
On June 15, 2018, the Eighth Judicial District Court of Nevada appointed Small Cap Compliance, LLC (“Custodian”) as custodian for Uonlive Corporations., proper notice having been given to the officers and directors of Uonlive Corporation. There was no opposition.
On June 20, 2018, the Custodian appointed Rhonda Keaveney as CEO, Secretary, Treasurer and Director of the Company.
On August 7, 2018, the Company filed a certificate of reinstatement with the state of Nevada.
On September 7, 2018, the Company authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock. Each one Convertible Series B Preferred Stock was entitled to be converted into 1,000 shares of common stock. Also, each one Convertible Series B Preferred Stock was entitled to 1,000 votes of common stock. 150,000 shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were issued to Chuang Fu Qu Kuai Lian Technology (Shenzhen) Limited giving Chuang Fu Qu Kuai Lian Technology (Shenzhen) Limited the voting control of the Company.

On April 10, 2019, pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement, the Company contracted to acquire 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Truly Organic Limited, a Hong Kong based company (“Truly Organic”), specializing in organic agriculture certification consulting in South East Asia. However, Truly Organic was unable to provide financial statements capable of being audited by a PCAOB independent public accountant, as required in the Acquisition Agreement. Therefore, such acquisition did not close.
On January 13, 2020, Edwin Lun, the existing secretary of the Board of Directors resigned. On January 13, 2020, the Board of Directors accepted his resignation. Also on January 13, 2020, (i) Timothy Chee Yau Lam was appointed and consented to act as the new secretary of the Board of Directors and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, (ii) Kwok Fai Thomas Yip was appointed and consented to act as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, and (iii) Chi Wai Michael Woo was appointed and consented to act as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

Business Overview
We operate as a holding company through our subsidiaries. Our main business as of late 2023 involves the treatment of flame retardant wood panels through a patented process which we license from Shenzhen Junfeng Woodlink Network Technology Co Ltd. Our secondary business is operating as an international trading platform with its main source of operations as a middle buyer of commodities and selling them to end buyers.
We have experience in the China market and can leverage off that experience to bring together the various traditional products with customers using e-distribution channels. Our revenue streams are generated from the sale of such products and services throughout China.
We are expanding our business model by connecting traditional products through e-channels and using technological innovation as a driving force to connect end users to increase sales. The company intends to continuously expand the market share in the various products that it is involved in. It is committed to growing into one of the larger market players in the sphere.
We seek to grow our business by pursing the following strategies:
| • | Increasing our customer base by using various e-distribution channels |
| • | offering high quality traditional products for repeat business |
| • | Expanding our lead generation services enabling the business to better engage their customers |
| • | Building our own custom e-channel distribution channel |
| • | Creating cross-selling synergies between the various suit of products and services being sold to the customers |
| • | Using a scalable business model to eliminate certain barriers and rapid growth |
In 2022, as Covid-19 had affected the tea industry, our business focused more on the international trading of precious metal commodities and we began seeking additional lines of business. From 2022 to present, we developed a line of trading precious metals with suppliers in South America with the end buyers in Hong Kong, China. In late 2023 we began expanding our business line into the treatment and service of wood panels in China. After commencing in the wood panel business we have ceased operating in tea and precious metals. Through our subsidiary, we obtained a patent license to treat wood panels so that they would become flame retardant.

Industry Overview
Wood Treatment Industry
The wood treatment and wood panel industry in China, particularly in regions like Guangdong, represents a significant segment of the nation's broader manufacturing and industrial base. Companies in this sector often source raw timber from nearby timber farms, transporting raw logs to processing facilities where they undergo a series of treatments. These processes may include patented techniques aimed at enhancing the wood's durability and functionality, such as making it flame retardant, moisture-resistant, or resistant to pests.
In terms of wood panel production, the treatment and servicing involve several stages, including seasoning, chemical treatment, and mechanical processing. These panels are then utilized across various sectors, notably in construction, furniture manufacturing, and interior decoration. Shanghai, as a hub, demonstrates the scale and technological advancement of China's capabilities in processing and finishing technologies related to wood, including panel board and solid wood treatments.
The Chinese market is also adapting to global trends and demands, particularly with the ongoing shifts in supply chains and environmental regulations. Companies in Guangdong are investing in sustainable practices and advanced technologies to meet both domestic and international standards, which is crucial as China addresses its "supply gap" in hardwoods and boosts its production capacity.
Globally, wood panels are increasingly utilized due to their cost-effectiveness, versatility, and environmental benefits. They are a staple in modern construction, especially in eco-friendly building projects, and in furniture and cabinetry, where engineered wood products offer consistency, strength, and ease of use. The international demand for treated wood products continues to grow as industries seek sustainable and durable materials for a wide range of applications.
| 8 |
Our Strategy
We intend to modernize and enhance the experience of purchasing Chinese products by distributing our products through e-distribution channels. In connection with our wood treatment business, the company plans on using its patented service to expand into wider areas of China and also expand its business to include the manufacturing of wood panel products rather than just servicing and treatment.
Our business objective is to generate revenues based on the sale of the products and to maintain and grow a customer base based upon our internal database.
Our target market is the China consumer market.
Potential competitors
There will be an abundance of competitors in the market, given the highly competitive environment we operate in, from both existing competitors and new market entrants.
As to the wood treatment industry, the Company’s competitors includes other wood treatment companies within the greater China area. There is also a risk that the patent owner could license the patents to other companies. However, given that there is a demand for such services, even if there were to be additional competitors in the same industry, the effect on the Company’s current clients will be minimal.

Products
Wood Treatment
Currently, our wood treatment business is a specialized product wherein clients of that business bring in unfurnished wood panels to be treated. Through the patented service which includes placing the untreated wood panels into a metal tank that is then submerged with a chemical process, the wood panels are then taken to dry afterwards and obtains the desired flame retardant properties.
Seasonality
The timber industry is subject to seasonality, especially during transitions between seasons, such as the shift from spring to summer, temperatures and humidity can fluctuate rapidly and unexpectedly. Seasonal changes can have a significant impact on wood treatment and drying times. Lumber mills face the challenge of maintaining the integrity of their products by carefully tracking wood moisture content and following dry kiln schedules. While our process includes receiving treated wood, dipping and drying through our – patented process, we do not believe our specific business will be subject to seasonality as the process is completed in controlled environments. However, we cannot predict the impact of seasonality on our customers production of timber for delivery to us for treatment and whether or not that will impact our business.
Management, Culture and Training
We are guided by a philosophy that recognizes customer service and the importance of delivering optimal performance across all lines of our business.
We seek to recruit, hire, train, retain and promote qualified, knowledgeable and enthusiastic business partners who share our passion and strive to deliver an extraordinary experience to our customers. Our staff are trained in the patented technologies so that the product becomes a stable and reliable process. This process helps ensure that all team members educate our customers and execute our standards accurately and consistently. As team members progress to the assistant manager and manager levels, they undergo additional weeks of training in sales, operations and management.
This philosophy extends to all types of trading and is applicable to precious metals trade.
Business and Strategic Partners
Currently, as our wood panel business is developing, the Company desires to expand beyond the Guangdong area and internationally.

Unlike in the US where the law built partly upon decisions of common law cases, court cases in the PRC do not constitute binding precedents. The governmental directives are organized in the following hierarchy.
The National People’s Congress of the PRC (“NPC”) and the Standing Committee of the NPC are empowered by the PRC Constitution to exercise the legislative power of the state. The NPC has the power to amend the PRC Constitution and to enact and amend primary laws governing the state organs and civil and criminal matters. The Standing Committee of the NPC is empowered to interpret, enact and amend laws other than those required to be enacted by the NPC.
The State Council of the PRC is the highest organ of state administration and has the power to enact administrative rules and regulations. Ministries and commissions under the State Council of the PRC are also vested with the power to issue orders, directives and regulations within the jurisdiction of their respective departments. Administrative rules, regulations, directives and orders promulgated by the State Council and its ministries and commissions must not be in conflict with the PRC Constitution or the national laws and, in the event that any conflict arises, the Standing Committee of the NPC has the power to annul such administrative rules, regulations, directives and orders.
At the regional level, the people’s congresses of provinces and municipalities and their standing committees may enact local rules and regulations and the people’s government may promulgate administrative rules and directives applicable to their own administrative area. These local laws and regulations may not be in conflict with the PRC Constitution, any national laws or any administrative rules and regulations promulgated by the State Council.
Rules, regulations or directives may be enacted or issued at the provincial or municipal level or by the State Council of the PRC or its ministries and commissions in the first instance for experimental purposes. After sufficient experience has been gained, the State Council may submit legislative proposals to be considered by the NPC or the Standing Committee of the NPC for enactment at the national level.
Governmental Regulations in Relation to the Company’s Businesses
Regulations Related to Retail
There are no separate mandatory legal provisions on the retail business model in the PRC. Companies and individual businesses may engage is the retail business as long as they have registered with the commerce departments in accordance with the laws such as the Regulation on Individual Industrial and Commercial Households and Administration of the Registration of Enterprises As Legal Persons, and include “retail” in the business scope on their business license.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) that the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offerings and in secondary trading, and about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Overview
The Company’s current business objective is to operate as a holding company with its subsidiaries operating in the wood treatment. We intend to use the Company’s limited personnel and financial resources in connection with such activities.
On November 7, 2022, the Company purchased from GRL21 Nominee Limited all the shares of Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited for one Hong Kong dollar (HKD1.00). Accordingly, Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited became a fully-owned subsidiary of the Company as at November 7, 2022. Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited (previously known as Star Wise Limited) is a company incorporated in Hong Kong on October 21, 2022. It changed its name to Kuber (Resources (Hong Kong) Limited on 1 November 2022 and concurrently filed its notification of commencement of Business by Corporation on the same day. It had not traded and/or otherwise operated until after it had been purchased by the Company on November 7, 2022. The purpose of obtaining Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited is to start an additional line of business outside of the international commodities trade currently undertaken by Asia Image Limited.
On September 18, 2023, the Company acquired all shares of Grayscale Investment (Asia) Limited ("Grayscale HK") from unrelated parties for two Hong Kong dollars (HKD 2.00) per share, along with its subsidiary. Consequently, Grayscale HK became a fully-owned subsidiary of the Company. Grayscale HK was established in Hong Kong on September 31, 2021, which has not commenced any operations since its inception. Grayscale Investment (ShenZhen) Limited ("Grayscale WOFE") was established on November 1, 2021, as a wholly foreign-owned entity in the People’s Republic of China ("PRC"). Grayscale WOFE is wholly owned by Grayscale HK.
On October 17, 2023, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, incorporated Kuber Resources (Guangdong) Co., Ltd. (“Kuber Guangdong") as a wholly owned subsidiary of Graysacle WOFE in Guangdong, PRC. Kuber Guangdong’s scope of business includes manufacturing, sales and distribution of wood panels, as well as providing formaldehyde treatment services.
On January 14, 2025, the Company, through Kuber Guangdong, closed on the Acquisition Agreement to acquire Gongfa Materials (Guangdong) New Materials Technology Co., Limited, a Chinese corporation, (“Gongfa”). As a result of the Closing, Gongfa is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Kuber Guangdong. Gongfa is a manufacturer of engineered wood products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Currently, we rely on the sale of our products and services as our primary source of liquidity and capital. We use the funds generated to cover the day-to-day operational costs of running the business.
As of December 31, 2024, we had current assets of $5,889,457 as compared to $3,473,299 as of December 31, 2023. We have cash of $104,322 and $143,860, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
To the extent that our capital resources are insufficient to meet current or planned operating requirements, we will seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners, licensees or others, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, such additional financing and we do not anticipate that existing shareholders will provide any portion of our future financing requirements.
No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay or terminate expenditures for certain of its programs that it would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $82,656, and net cash provided by operating activities was $201,182 for the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively.

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has a net income of $386,267 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,998,366 and a working capital of $2,522,062 as of December 31, 2024.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has started to generate revenues but has yet to established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or be successful in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not have any contractual obligations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates include asset impairment, stock-based compensation, and future income tax amounts. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.
We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact or consolidated financial statement. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our consolidated financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, including those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, Management concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm
Pursuant to Regulation S-K Item 308(b), this Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm, regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to such attestation as we are a smaller reporting company.
Changes in internal controls
During the year ended December 31, 2024, there were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, which were identified in connection with our management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting.

Committees of the Board of Directors
Our board of directors has not established any committees, including an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating committee or any committee performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board as a whole. Because we only recently (March 2023) appointed two independent directors, the establishment of committees of the Board of Directors has not yet been undertaken. In November 2023 we appointed two additional independent directors. We anticipate that the board will establish committees in 2024.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and all employees.
Family Relationships

The Company will reimburse its directors for reasonable expenses in connection with attendance at board and committee meetings. Directors will also be eligible to receive stock options offered by our company from time to time. No options have been granted to any director.
Insider Trading Policy
We do not maintain insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers, and employees that we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations applicable to us. We have failed to do so due to limited number of members of management, limited resources, and the lack of equity awards granted to management. We intend to adopt an insider trading policy by the end of 2025.

In addition to the contact information in this Annual Report, each stockholder will be given specific information on how he/she can direct communications to the officers and directors of the Company at our annual stockholders meetings. All communications from stockholders are relayed to the board of member.
Role in Risk Oversight
Our sole director is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The Board receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our company’s assessment of risks. The sole director focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the sole director oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires our directors, officers and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other of our equity securities. To our knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, no Section 16(a) filings applicable to officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders were have been made.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
No executive compensation was paid during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company has no employment agreement with any of its officers and directors.
Agreements with Named Executive Officers
On March 2, 2020, the Company entered into a Definitive Share Agreement whereby Mr. Raymond Fu, the sole shareholder of Asia Image Investment Limited, and an officer and director of the Company, relinquished all his shares in Asia Image and acquired 100,000 shares of the Company. Consequently, Asia Image became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
| 22 |
Pension, Retirement or Similar Benefit Plans
There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers. We have no material bonus or profit-sharing plans pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation is or may be paid to our directors or executive officers, except that stock options may be granted at the discretion of the board of directors or a committee thereof.
Compensation of Directors
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we have not paid compensation to any of our directors.
Outstanding Equity Awards
There were no equity awards outstanding as of the end of the year ending December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Compensation Policies and Practices as They Relate to the Company’s Risk Management
We believe that our current compensation policies and practices for all employees, including executive officers, do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.
Equity Compensation Plan
The Company currently does not have any equity compensation plans; however, the Company is currently deliberating on implementing an equity compensation plan.
Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance
The Company currently does not have insurance for directors and officers against liability; however, the Company is in the process of investigating the availability of such insurance.

As of December 31, 2024, we had no pension plans or compensatory plans or other arrangements which provide compensation in the event of termination of employment or change in control of us.

A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. Unless otherwise indicated, each of the shareholders named in the table below, or his or her family members, has sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares of our Common Stock. Except as otherwise indicated, the address of each of the shareholders listed below is: 1113, Tower 2, Lippo Center, 89 Queensway, Hong Kong, Hong Kong 000000.

Director Independence
Our Board of Directors will periodically review relationships that directors have with the Company to determine whether the directors are independent. Directors are considered “independent” as long as they do not accept any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee (other than director fees) from the Company, are not an affiliated person of the Company or its subsidiaries (e.g., an officer or a greater-than-ten-percent stockholder) and are independent within the meaning of applicable laws, regulations. In this latter regard, the Board of Directors will use the Nasdaq listing rules (specifically, Section 5605(a)(2) of such rules) as a benchmark for determining which, if any, of its directors are independent, solely in order to comply with applicable SEC disclosure rules. However, this is for disclosure purposes only.
Our Board of Directors has determined, after considering all the relevant facts and circumstances, that Shiu Chung Chan, Hok Hin Mui, and Chun Leung Tso are independent directors, as “independence” is defined by the listing standards of Nasdaq, and by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, because they have no relationship with us that would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities as a director. Mr. Fu, Mr. Lam, and Mr. Li are not “independent” as defined by the listing standards.
Insider Trading Policy
As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have not yet adopted a specific insider trading policy, although we are committed to compliance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. We have not adopted such a policy as a result of the Company’s size, structure, and risk profile, however, we intend to adopt an insider trading policy by the third quarter of 2025.
ITEM 14. PRICINPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES
Audit Fees

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Kuber Resources Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kuber Resources Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We draw attention to the following matters as disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements:-
| A. | Unissued VAT invoices |
Note 14(c) regarding Unissued VAT invoices, wherein, during the FY 2024, due to the rules imposed by the Chinese local authorities on newly established companies, which limited the issuance of VAT invoices per month. Consequently, the Kuber Resources (Guangdong) Co., (the subsidiary) was not able to issue VAT invoices for all its sales. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had issued a total of $375,582 in VAT invoices for its sales, leaving $3,452,729 in sales unissued. The Company has submitted a request to increase the allowable VAT invoice amounts and is currently awaiting approval. Upon receiving approval, the unissued VAT invoices of $ 3,452,729 will be issued.
| B. | Restriction on cash disbursement on bank account |
Note 14(d) regarding restrictions imposed by the bank on new bank accounts of Kuber Resources (Guangdong) Co., (the subsidiary), by limiting its cash receipts/disbursement. In order to avoid disruption to the business operations, the Company has engaged a related party, Shenzhen Guangfeng High Performance Wood Products Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly Shenzhen Junfeng Wood Chain Network Technology Co., Ltd), to collect sales revenues on behalf of the Company.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had an outstanding receivable of $71,332 from the related party as a result of this arrangement. These receivables represent funds collected on behalf of the Guangdong, but not yet remitted to its bank account as at year ended December 31, 2024. Subsequently, the Company receive the funds of $ 71,332 in its bank account from Shenzhen Junfeng Wood Chain Network Technology Co., Ltd.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of above matters.

Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical Audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

KUBER RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023
Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business
Kuber Resources Corporation formerly known as Uonlive Corporation (“KUBR” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 29, 1998 as Weston International Development Corporation. On July 28, 1998, its name was changed to Txon International Development Corporation. On September 15, 2000, the Company changed its name to China World Trade Corporation. On July 2, 2008, the Company further changed its name to Uonlive Corporation.
The Company ceased its former operations in early 2015. The Company has fully impaired all assets since the shutdown of its operations in 2015 and has recorded the effects of this impairment as part of its discontinued operations.
On June 15, 2018, the eight judicial District Court of Nevada appointed Small Cap Compliance, LLC as custodian for Uonlive Corporations, proper notice having been given to the officers and directors of Uonlive Corporation and there was no opposition.
On September 10, 2019, the Company filed a certificate of revival with the state of Nevada, appointing Raymond Fu as, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.
On March 2, 2020, the Company entered into a Definitive Share Agreement whereby Raymond Fu, the sole shareholder of Asia Image Investment Limited (“Asia Image”), relinquished all his shares in Asia Image and acquired 100,000 shares of the Company. Consequently, Asia Image became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Since the major shareholder of the Company retained control of both the Company and Asia Image, the share exchange was accounted for as a reverse merger. As such, the Company recognized the assets and liabilities of Asia Image, acquired in the Reorganization, at their historical carrying amounts.
On November 7, 2022, the Company acquired all shares of Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited ("Kuber HK") from GRL21 Nominee Limited for one Hong Kong dollar (HKD1.00). Consequently, Kuber HK became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Kuber HK, formerly known as Star Wise Limited, was established in Hong Kong on October 21, 2022. It officially changed its name to Kuber Resources (Hong Kong) Limited on November 1, 2022, which has not commenced any operations since its inception. The acquisition of Kuber HK aims to diversify the Company's business portfolio beyond its current focus on international commodities trading conducted by Asia Image Limited.
On December 8, 2022, the Company filed Articles of Amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to its Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of Nevada to change the Company’s corporate name to Kuber Resources Corporation (the “Name Change”). In connection with the Name Change, the Company’s has changed its ticker symbol from “UOLI” to the new ticker symbol “KUBR” (the “Symbol Change”). There is no change in the CUSIP number of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Name Change and Symbol Change. As previously reported, the majority of issued and outstanding shares approved the Name Change and Symbol Change on September 15, 2022 by written consent.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) announced the effectiveness of the Name Change and Symbol Change on December 9, 2022, which became effective in the market and for trading under the new name and ticker symbol on December 12, 2022.
The Name Change and Symbol Change do not affect the rights of the Company’s security holders. The Company’s common stock will continue to be quoted on OTC Markets. Following the Name Change, the stock certificates, which reflect the former name of the Company, will continue to be valid and need not be exchanged. Any certificates reflecting the Name Change will be issued in due course as old stock certificates are tendered for exchange or transfer to the Company’s transfer agent.
On September 18, 2023, the Company acquired all shares of Grayscale Investment (Asia) Limited ("Grayscale HK") from unrelated parties for two Hong Kong dollars (HKD 2.00) per share, along with its subsidiary. Consequently, Grayscale HK became a fully-owned subsidiary of the Company. Grayscale HK was established in Hong Kong on September 31, 2021, which has not commenced any operations since its inception. Grayscale Investment (ShenZhen) Limited ("Grayscale WOFE") was established on November 1, 2021, as a wholly foreign-owned entity in the People’s Republic of China ("PRC"). Grayscale WOFE is wholly owned by Grayscale HK.
| F-7 |
The aforementioned transaction has been accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, and the related fair value adjustments have been recorded as of the acquisition date. The Company did not record any goodwill or intangible assets related to the transaction, as the acquisition consideration equaled the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired.
On October 17, 2023, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, incorporated Kuber Resources (Guangdong) Co., Ltd. (“Kuber Guangdong") as a wholly owned subsidiary of Graysacle WOFE in Guangdong, PRC. Kuber Guangdong’s scope of business includes manufacturing, sales and distribution of wood panels, as well as providing formaldehyde treatment services.
On September 25, 2024, the Company disposed its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Asia Image, to a related party for total consideration of cash HKD3,900,000 (approximately $
KUBR and its subsidiaries Kuber HK, Grayscale HK, Grayscale WOFE, Kuber Guangdong shall be collectively referred throughout as the “Company”.
Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
The Company has a fiscal year end of December 31.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the outcome for these items based on information available when the financial statements are prepared. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of the Company is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.
The currency in which companies in China operate is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”). The RMB is not freely convertible into the US dollar and may be subject to PRC currency restrictions for payments, including the distributions of dividends or retained earnings to the Company by its subsidiaries or its variable interest entities.
Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting periods. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and on translation of monetary items at period-end are included in income statement of the period.
For the purpose of presenting these financial statements, the Company’s assets and liabilities are expressed in US$ at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, stockholder’s equity accounts are translated at historical rates, and income and expense items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholder’s equity (deficits) section of the balance sheets.
Exchange rates used for the translation are as follows:
| Exchange rate used for the translation | ||||||||
| US$ to RMB | Period End | Average | ||||||
| December 31, 2024 | ||||||||
| December 31, 2023 | N/A | |||||||
| F-8 |
| US$ to HKD | Period End | Average | ||||||
| December 31, 2024 | ||||||||
| December 31, 2023 | N/A | |||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting within the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivables
Accounts receivables are recorded at the net value less estimates for expected credit losses. Management regularly reviews outstanding accounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts. When collection of the original invoice amounts is no longer probable, the Company will either partially or fully write-off the balance against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Property and Equipment & Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at historical cost net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures that improve the functionality of the related asset or extend the useful life are capitalized. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related gain or loss is included in operating income. Leasehold improvements are depreciated on the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the following periods:
| Schedule of intangible assets | ||
| Leasehold improvements | ||
| Office furniture and equipment |
Intangible Assets & Amortization
Intangible assets are stated at historical cost net of accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the following periods:
| Schedule of intangible assets | ||
| Intellectual Property License |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment annually or more often if events and circumstances warrant. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve breakeven operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Contract Liability
The Company records customer advances as liabilities when consideration is received in advance of the transfer of goods. These advances are recognized as revenue when the performance obligations associated with the advance are satisfied. These advances relate to the advance payment for orders of goods placed by the customers.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations.
| F-9 |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services as per the contract with the customer. As a result, the Company accounts for revenue contracts with customers by applying the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which includes the following steps:
| ● | Identify the contract(s), and subsequent amendments with the customer. |
| ● | Identify all the performance obligations in the contract and subsequent amendments. |
| ● | Determine the transaction price for completing performance obligations. |
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. |
| ● | Recognize the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
The Company considers contract modification as a change in the scope or price (or both) of a contract that is approved by the parties. The parties describe contract modification as a change order, a variation, or an amendment. A contract modification exists when the parties to the contract approve a modification that either creates new or changes existing enforceable rights and obligations of the parties to the contract. The Company assumes a contract modification when approved in writing, by oral agreement, or implied by the customary business practice of the customer. If the parties to the contract have not approved a contract modification, the Company continues to apply the guidance to the existing contract until the contract modification is approved. The Company recognizes contract modification in various forms – including but not limited to partial termination, an extension of the contract term with a corresponding increase in price, adding new goods and/or services to the contract, with or without a corresponding change in price, and reducing the contract price without a change in goods or services promised.
Sales of goods
The Company manufactures wood panels which it sells to customers.
Revenue recognition occurs upon the following events: when a customer places an order, payment is received, and the goods are delivered to or drop-shipped to and accepted by the customer. Provisions are made for estimated sales returns based on historical return rates and experience which are immaterial. The Company may record contract liabilities, such as customer advances, when payments are received from customers prior to delivery or acceptance of goods by customers.
Formaldehyde treatment services
The Company provides formaldehyde removal services.
Revenue recognition occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its performance obligations by providing the formaldehyde removal services to the customer and collectability can be reasonably assured. This typically occurs when the services are completed and the customer is able to use and benefit from them. The Company may record contract liabilities, such as customer advances, when payments are received from customers prior to delivery or acceptance of goods by customers. If the contract includes multiple performance obligations, the transaction price should be allocated to each obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.
Advertising Costs
All costs related to advertising are expensed in the period incurred. Advertising costs charged to operations were $nil and $nil, for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based upon the temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates that are applicable in each year.
The Company utilizes a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions (“tax contingencies”). The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement.
The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately forecast actual outcomes. The Company includes interest and penalties related to tax contingencies in the provision of income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. Management of the Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change in the next twelve months significantly.
| F-10 |
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.
There are potential dilutive shares of common stock from the Series A preferred stock. The potentially dilutive instruments were excluded as such shares would be anti-dilutive in a period in which a net loss is recorded.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which could result in a loss to the Company which will be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves judgment. In assessing loss contingencies arising from legal proceedings pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may rise from such proceedings, the Company’s management evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable a material loss will be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, then the estimated loss is accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value accounting establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:
| - | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| - | Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. |
| - | Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. |
The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts payable, contract liabilities and loan from a shareholder. The estimated fair value of those balances approximates the carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Segment Reporting
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report in the financial statements information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise engaging in businesses activities for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision makers in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results including revenue, gross profit and operating profit at a consolidated level only. The Company does not distinguish between markets for the purpose of making decisions about resources allocation and performance assessment. Therefore, the Company has only one operating segment and one reportable segment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation. This ASU clarifies how to determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements. The ASU is effective in reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within the fiscal year, on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
| F-11 |
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis, primarily through enhanced disclosures of significant segment expenses. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and requires retrospective application to all periods presented upon adoption, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard resulted in enhanced segment disclosures, including the presentation of significant segment expenses, but did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 13– Income taxes
The Company provides for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. FASB ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect currently.
FASB ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company’s opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the deferred tax asset has also been recorded resulting in no net deferred tax asset.

Hong Kong
Companies incorporated in Hong Kong are subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax on the taxable income as reported in its statutory financial statements adjusted in accordance with relevant Hong Kong tax laws. The applicable tax rate for the first Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD$”) 2 million of assessable profits is 8.25% and assessable profits above HKD$ 2 million will continue to be subject to the rate of 16.5% for corporations in Hong Kong, effective from the year of assessment 2018/2019. Before that, the applicable tax rate was 16.5% for corporations in Hong Kong. The Company did not make any provisions for Hong Kong profit tax as there were no assessable profits derived from or earned in Hong Kong since inception. Additionally, payments of dividends by the subsidiary incorporated in Hong Kong to the Company are not subject to any Hong Kong withholding tax.

PRC
Effective on January 1, 2008, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, EIT Law, and Implementing Rules impose a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25% on all domestic-invested enterprises and foreign investment enterprises in PRC, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. As such, starting from January 1, 2008, the Company’s subsidiaries in PRC are subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25%. Under the EIT Law, net operating losses (“NOLs”) can typically be carried forward for up to five years to offset against future taxable income.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, certain subsidiaries of the Company qualified as small low-profit enterprises under the applicable PRC tax regulations. As such, these entities were eligible for preferential income tax rates as follows:
| · | The portion of annual taxable income not exceeding RMB 1 million was subject to an effective income tax rate of 2.5%, calculated as 12.5% of the taxable income taxed at the standard rate of 20%. |
| · | The portion of annual taxable income between RMB 1 million and RMB 3 million was subject to an effective income tax rate of 5%, calculated as 25% of the taxable income taxed at the standard rate of 20%. |
These preferential rates are in accordance with PRC tax incentives for small low-profit enterprises, as set forth in Ministry of Finance and State Taxation Administration [2021] No. 12 and its subsequent updates.
Management believes that the relevant subsidiaries met all qualification criteria for such preferential tax treatment during the respective reporting periods.
The following table summarizes the taxable income (loss) before income taxes by jurisdiction:

The Company maintained a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets to reduce the total to an amount management believed was appropriate. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the periods when deductible temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income.

Note 14 – Concentrations, Risks, and Uncertainties
| a) | Credit risk |
Cash deposits with banks are held in financial institutions in China, which deposits are not federally insured. Cash deposits with banks of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. Accordingly, the Company has a concentration of credit risk related to the uninsured part of bank deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk.
| F-17 |
| b) | Concentration |
The Company has a concentration risk related to suppliers and customers. The inability of the company to maintain existing relationships with suppliers or to establish new relationships with customers in the future may have a negative impact on the company’s ability to obtain goods sold to customers in a price advantageous and timely manner. If the Company is unable to obtain ample supply of goods from existing suppliers or alternative sources of supply, the Company may be unable to satisfy the orders from its customers, which may have a material adverse impact on revenue.
For the years ended December
31, 2024 and 2023, three customers and zero customers, respectively, accounted for
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023,

| c) | Unissued VAT invoices |
The products that are sold by the Company in PRC are subject to value-added tax (“VAT“) at a rate of 6% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid on purchase of raw materials included in the cost of producing the finished goods sold.
Due to the rules imposed by local authorities
on newly established companies, which limited the issuance of VAT invoices per month. Consequently, the Company was not able to issue
VAT invoices for all its sales. During the years ended December 31, 2024, the Company had issued VAT invoices for total sales of $375,582
for its sales, leaving $
The local authority may require the Company to rectify the issue above by demanding payments and submitting the relevant filings within a specified time period. If the Company fails to do so within the specified time period, the local authority may impose a monetary fine on it and may also apply to the local people’s court for enforcement.
If the Company receives any notice from the local authority, the Company will be required respond to the notice and pay all amounts due to the government, including any administrative penalties that may be imposed, which would require the Company to divert its financial resources which may impact its resources, if any, to make such payments. Additionally, any administrative costs in excess of the payments, if material, may impact the Company's operating results.
As of today, the Company has not received any notice from the local housing authority or any claim from our current and former employees.
| d) | Restriction on cash disbursement on bank account |
As a newly established business, the Company experienced restrictions imposed by the bank on new bank accounts by limiting its deposits and disbursements. In order to avoid disruption to the business operations, the Company has engaged a related party, Shenzhen Guangfeng High Performance Wood Products Technology Co., Ltd. formerly Shenzhen Junfeng Wood Chain Network Technology Co., Ltd., to collect sales revenues on behalf of the Company. These funds are then deposited or transferred to the Company's bank account on a regular basis, ensuring the continued liquidity necessary for operational activities.
The Company had an outstanding receivable of $
Management continuously evaluates the impact of these restrictions on the Company's cash management and operational efficiency. Despite the challenges posed by the restriction on cash disbursement, the Company remains committed to ensuring the uninterrupted conduct of its business activities.
It is important to note that the amounts receivable from the related party are subject to periodic reconciliation and may fluctuate over time based on sales activities and remittance schedules.
