HWH International Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

HWH International Inc. (“HWH”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) operate a food and beverage (“F&B”) business in Singapore and South Korea. The Company operates a membership model in which individuals pay an upfront membership fee to become members. As members, these individuals receive discounted access to products and services offered by the Company’s affiliates. Previously, the Company had approximately 9,000 members, primarily in South Korea. Currently, this membership business has been temporarily suspended.

 

HWH International Inc. was originally incorporated in Delaware on October 20, 2021 under the name Alset Capital Acquisition Corp. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company consummated the Business Combination on January 9, 2024 and changed its name from “Alset Capital Acquisition Corp.” to “HWH International Inc.” The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

On September 9, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, HWH International Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “HWH Nevada” or “Target”) and HWH Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). The Company and Merger Sub are sometimes referred to collectively as the “ACAX Parties.” Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and the Target was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into HWH Nevada, with the Target surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) on January 9, 2024, the Company changed its name to “HWH International Inc.” The board of directors of the Company (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and related transactions by the stockholders of the Company.

 

The Target was owned and controlled by certain member officers and directors of the Company and its sponsor. The Merger was consummated following the receipt of the required approval by the stockholders of the Company and the shareholders of the Target and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.

 

The total consideration paid at Closing (the “Merger Consideration”) by the Company to the Target’s shareholders was $125,000,000, and was payable in shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”). The number of shares of the Company Common Stock paid to the shareholders of the Target as Merger Consideration was 12,500,000, with each share being valued at $10.00.

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Functional and Reporting Currency

 

The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“$”). The financial records of the Company’s subsidiaries located in South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia are maintained in their local currencies, the Korean Won (₩) Singapore Dollar (S$) Hong Kong Dollar (HK$) and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), which are also the functional currencies of these entities.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s 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 balance sheet.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the balance sheet, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash of $999,506 and $22,505,969 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

 

7

 

 

Investments held in Trust Account

 

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $24,874 and $21 million, respectively, in investments in treasury securities held in the Trust Account. In connection with the closing of Business Combination on January 9, 2024, Class A Common Stock stockholders redeemed 1,942,108 shares for approximately $21 million held in the Trust Account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 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: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions

 

For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying values reported in balance sheets for current assets and liabilities approximate their estimated fair market values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value. As of March 31, 2024, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value.

 

Leases

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 842 in accounting for its operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities. At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that contain related non-lease components, such as maintenance, the Company will account for these payments as a single lease component.

 

Right-of-use of assets

 

The right-of-use of asset is measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.

 

8

 

 

Lease liabilities

 

Lease liability is measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise mainly of fixed lease payments.

 

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

 

The Company has elected to not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low value assets. Lease payments associated with these leases are expensed as incurred.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less depreciation. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures incurred as a consequence of acquiring or using the asset, or that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. When property and equipment is retired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in statement of operations. Depreciation is computed by the reducing balance method (after considering their respective estimated residual values) over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

 

Office Equipment 35 years
Furniture and Fittings 35 years
Kitchen Equipment 35 years
Operating Equipment 35 years
Leasehold Improvements Shorter of lease life or asset life

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends, and prospects, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.

 

Deposit

 

Deposit represents mostly rental deposit paid for the office used.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which the determination of revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires the Company to apply the following steps:

 

(1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

 

The Company generates its revenue primarily from membership fees, product sales and F&B business.

 

9

 

 

Membership Fee: The Company collects an annual membership fee from its members. The fee is fixed, paid in full at the time upon joining the membership and is not refundable. The Company’s performance obligation is to provide its members the right to (a) purchase products from the Company, (b) access to certain back-office services, (c) receive commissions and (d) attend corporate events. The associated performance obligation is satisfied over time, generally over the term of the membership agreement which is for a one-year period. The Company recognizes revenue from membership fee over the one-year period of the membership.

 

Product Sales: The Company’s performance obligation is to transfer ownership of its products to its Members. The Company generally recognizes revenue when product is delivered to its members. Revenue is recorded net of applicable taxes, allowances, refund or returns. The Company receives the net sales price in cash or through credit card payments at the point of sale.

 

If any member returns a product to the Company on a timely basis, they may obtain a replacement product from the Company for such returned products. We do not have buyback program. However, when the customer requests a return and management decides that the refund is necessary, we initiate the refund after deducting all the benefits that a member has earned. The returns are deducted from our sales revenue on our financial statements. Allowances for product and membership returns are provided at the time the sale is recorded. This accrual is based upon historical return rates for each country and the relevant return pattern, which reflects anticipated returns to be received over a period of up to 12 months following the original sale. Product and membership returns for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $0 and $1,162, respectively. The table below represents a breakout of the returns related to product sales and the returns related to memberships:

 

   Membership   Products   Total 
   Returns 
   Membership   Products   Total 
   $   $   $ 
             
March 31, 2024   -    -    -

11

 

 

Commission Expense

 

The Company compensates its sales leaders with leadership incentives for services rendered, relating to the development, retention, and management of their sales organizations. Leadership incentives are payable based on achieved sales volume, which are recorded in cost of revenue. Member will get 25% commission of the membership fee income if the member successfully refers a new member to subscribe to the membership. The commission will be payable after the referee’s membership is confirmed and been paid by the new member.

 

Advertising Expenses

 

Costs incurred for advertising the Company’s products are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $2,242 and $4,095, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.

 

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.

 

The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in income tax expense.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares held by the Company.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for treasury shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible securities, such as stock options, convertible bonds and warrants. At March 31, 2024 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding. At March 31, 2023 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding and 909,875 potentially dilutive underlying rights.

 

Non-controlling interests

 

Non-controlling interests represent the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company, and are presented separately in the consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive income, and within equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, separately from equity attributable to owners of the Company.

 

On March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate non-controlling interests in the Company were $164,499 and $8,666, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss, a loss from operations and negative cash flow from operations as we expanded our business of operating cafés and restructured our membership business.

 

Notwithstanding the above, the Company believes that the available cash in the Company’s bank accounts, anticipated cash from operations, and financing availability from related parties are sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. The Company’s capital requirements for the planned expansion are based on, among other items, geographical specific property costs, team requirements, and marketing steps needed. Our expansion shall consist of plans to take over leases of existing Hapi Cafes we currently do not own, as we look to add Hapi Cafes over the next two (2) years. If we take over these existing leases, it will require a minimum investment for each lease we take over for each Hapi Café. Proceeds received as a result of the anticipated business combination, will allow us to seek these expansion plans. Depending on the amount of proceeds we raise as part of the anticipated business combination, we may or may not need or seek additional funding or alter our strategic growth plans after the business combination is effectuated. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our plans as laid out above.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not contain any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has obtained a letter of financial support from Alset International Limited and Alset Inc., a direct and indirect majority owner of the Company, respectively. Alset International Limited and Alset Inc. committed to provide any additional funding required by the Company and would not demand repayment through twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 - MERGER WITH HWH INTERNATIONAL INC. (A NEVADA CORPORATION)

 

HWH International Inc. (f.k.a. Alset Capital Acquisition Corp.; “SPAC”, the” Company”) was a special purpose acquisition company, incorporated in Delaware on October 20, 2021 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). On January 9, 2024, the Company, HWH International Inc. (a Nevada corporation, “HWH-NV”) and HWH Merger Sub Inc. consummated the merger (the “Reverse Recapitalization”) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger dated as of September 9, 2022.

 

The transaction was accounted for as a Reverse Recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, SPAC was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Reverse Recapitalization, HWH-NV stockholders comprise a majority of voting power on the Company, most of senior management of HWH-NV continued as senior management of the combined company and identified a majority of the members of the board of directors of the combined company, both companies are under common control; and HWH-NV’s operations comprise the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Company is considered to be a continuation of HWH-NV, with the net identifiable assets of SPAC deemed to have been acquired by HWH-NV in exchange for HWH-NV common shares accompanied by a recapitalization, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded.

 

In connection with the business Combination:

 

  The holders of 8,591,072 Public Shares properly exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from the IPO.
     
  Immediately prior to the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization (i) each of the 1,972,896 shares of SPAC’s Class A Common Stock was cancelled and converted into 1,972,896 shares of the Company’s common stock; (ii) each of the issued and outstanding 2,156,250 shares of SPAC’s Class B Common Shares were converted into 2,156,250 shares of SPAC’s Class A Common Stock and subsequently into 2,156,250 shares of the Company’s common stock; (iii) each of the SPAC’s 476,890 units were split into their component securities; and (iv) 909,875 new shares of the Company’s common stock were issued in connection with the conversion of the SPAC’s rights into the Company’s common shares.

 

13

 

 

  12,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were delivered as consideration in the Business Combination
     
  149,443 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to a third party as payment for $1,509,375 of underwriting compensation.

 

The transaction described above was a transaction between entities under common control. SPAC, prior to the Business Combination, was in 26% owned by Alset International Limited a public company listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited and 32% owned by Alset Inc., the ultimate owner of both SPAC and HWH-NV. HWH-NV was wholly-owned by Alset International Limited. In the transactions under common control, financial statements and financial information were presented as of the beginning of the period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred at that date.

 

NOTE 4 — ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET

 

Accounts receivable, net at March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023, March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 of $29,156, $28,611, $14,302 and $9,070, respectively, and represents collection received by the credit card processor in F&B business and rent receivable. Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts net of an allowance for credit losses and do not bear interest. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment. Management’s assessment of expected credit losses includes consideration of current and expected economic conditions, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers (including their financial condition), the aging of account balances, historical credit loss experience, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, and the existence of sources of payment The Company also establishes an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Accounts receivable considered uncollectible are charged against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the allowance for credit losses was an immaterial amount. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

NOTE 11 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On June 10, 2021, Hapi Café Inc. (“HCI”) signed a convertible loan agreement with Ketomei Pte. Ltd. (“Ketomei”), pursuant to which HCI has agreed to grant Ketomei a loan of an aggregate principal amount of $75,525 (SG$100,000). On March 21, 2022, HCI signed a legally binding term sheet with Ketomei, and HCI has agreed to invest in Ketomei $258,186 (SG$350,000) for 28% interest in Ketomei. The investment was partially paid by the $75,525 (SG$100,000) loan borrowed to Ketomei and the accrued interest of $6,022 (SG$6,433). The balance of $183,311 (SG$243,567) was paid in cash.

 

On July 28, 2022 HCI entered into binding term sheet with Ketomei and Tong Leok Siong Constant, pursuant to which HCI lent Ketomei $43,254 (SG$60,000). This loan had a 0% interest rate for the first 60 days and an interest rate of 8% per annum afterwards.

 

On August 4, 2022, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet (the “Second Term Sheet”) pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $260,600 (SG$360,000) pursuant to a convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 8%. As of August 31, 2023, the $263,766 (SG$360,000) loan was paid by the $214,903 (SG$293,310) loan borrowed to Ketomei and $48,862 (SG$66,690) was paid for the expenses on behalf of Ketomei. In addition, pursuant to the Second Term Sheet, the July 28, 2022, loan was modified to include conversion rights. The Parties agree that the conversion rate will be at approximately $0.022 per share.

 

On August 31, 2023, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $36,634 (SG$50,000) pursuant to a convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 3.5%. As of October 31, 2023, the $37,876 (SG$50,000) loan was paid to Ketomei.

 

On October 26, 2023, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $37,876 (SG$50,000) pursuant to a non- convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 3.5%. As of March 31, 2024, the $37,000 (SG$50,000) loan was paid by the $21,134 (SG$28,560) loan borrowed to Ketomei and $15,865 (SG$21,440) was paid for the expenses on behalf of Ketomei.

 

On February 20, 2024, the Company invested an additional $312,064 (SG$420,000) for an additional 38.41% ownership interest in Ketomei by converting $312,064 (SG$420,000) convertible loan. The loan was impaired at the year ended December 31, 2023, therefore, $312,064 (SG$420,000) was transferred from impairment of convertible loan to impairment of equity method investment. After this additional investment, the Company owns 55.65% of Ketomei’s outstanding shares and Ketomei is consolidated into the financial statements of HWH International Inc. beginning on February 20, 2024.

 

On March 20, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Sharing Services Global Corporation (“SHRG”), pursuant to which the Company purchased from SHRG a (i) Convertible Promissory Note (the “Convertible Note”) in the amount of $250,000, convertible into 208,333,333 shares of SHRG’s common stock at the option of the Company, and (ii) certain warrants exercisable into 208,333,333 shares of SHRG’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.0012 per share, the exercise period of the warrant being five (5) years from the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000. At the time of filing, the Company has not converted any of the debt contemplated by the Convertible Note nor exercised any of the warrants.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

 

   Fair Value Measurement Using   Amount at 
   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Fair Value 
March 31, 2024                    
Asset                    
Warrants – SHRG  $-   $141,667   $-   $141,667 
Convertible loans receivable – SHRG   -    

324,521

    -   $

324,521

 
                                     
Total Investment in securities at Fair Value  $-   $466,188   $-   $466,188 

 

The fair value of the SHRG warrants under level 2 category as of March 31, 2024 was calculated using a Black-Scholes valuation model valued with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE WEIGHTED AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS

   March 31, 
   2024 
     
Stock price  $0.0016 
Exercise price  $0.0012 
Risk free interest rate   4.22%
      
Annualized volatility   136.81%
Dividend Yield  $0.00%
Year to maturity   4.96 

 

The Company has elected to recognize the convertible loan at fair value and therefore there was no further evaluation of embedded features for bifurcation. The Company engaged third party valuation firm to perform the valuation of convertible loans. The fair value of the convertible loans is calculated using the binomial tree model based on probability of remaining as straight debt using discounted cash flow with the following assumptions:

 

  

March 31,

2024

 
Risk-free interest rate   4.417%
Expected life   2.96 year 
Discount rate   6.00%
Expected volatility   132.407%
Expected dividend yield   0%
Fair value  $324,521 

 

Changes in the observable input values would likely cause material changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 2 financial instruments. A significant increase (decrease) in this likelihood would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement.

 

Revenue from F&B business amounting to approximately $1,344 and $1,314 was related to corporate sales. That revenue was derived from corporate sales to related parties who purchased meals and paid for their staff, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Included in Accounts Receivable, net at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is $8,953 and $7,405, respectively, of amounts due from related parties.

 

Included in other income during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is $1,819 and $1,723, respectively of rental income from related parties.

 

NOTE 12 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

The total amount of authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 56,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 55,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”), and (b) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”). As of March 31, 2024, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

 

The Company previously had shares of Class B common stock outstanding, which automatically converted into Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, on a one-for-one basis.

 

Rights - Each holder of a right automatically received one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination.

 

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

 

18

 

 

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Share of Class A Common Stock Equals or Exceeds $18.00 — Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

 

  in whole and not in part;
     
  at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;
     
  upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period to each warrant holder; and
     
  if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganization, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to warrant holders.

 

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

 

The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering except the Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.

Issuance of HWH Shares to EF Hutton

 

On December 18, 2023, the Company entered into a Satisfaction and Discharge of Indebtedness Agreement in connection with an underwriting agreement previously entered into by the Company and EF Hutton, a division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, under which in lieu of the Company tendering the full amount due of $3,018,750, the underwriters accepted a combination of $325,000 in cash upon the closing of the business combination, 149,443 shares of the Company’s common stock and a $1,184,375 promissory note as full satisfaction. This agreement was effective at the closing of business combination on January 9, 2024. The 149,443 shares were issued as of the price of $10.10, totaling the amount of $1,509,375. The fair value of the Company shares at issuance on January 9, 2024 was $2.82 per share or $421,429. No gain or loss was recognized upon issuance of the shares on January 9, 2024 as this was an adjustment to prior underwriting costs accounted for in equity.

 

NOTE 13 —LEASES

 

The Company has operating leases for its office spaces in South Korea and two F&B stores in Singapore. The related lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Since the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate that can be readily determined, management uses a discount rate based on the incremental borrowing rate. The Company’s weighted-average remaining lease term relating to its operating leases is 1.23 years, with a weighted-average discount rate is 4%.

 

The Company has also utilized the following practical expedients:

 

  Short-term leases – for leases that are for a period of 12 months or less, the Company will not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842.
     
  For leases that contain related non-lease components, such as maintenance, the Company will account for these payments as a single lease component.

Overview

 

Our newly acquired business started in South Korea with a single-level membership marketing model with limited products for sale. We registered the business on April 1, 2019, and we started selling founders package on July 1, 2019. While we had been profitable and growing, the COVID-19 pandemic had a material adverse effect on such growth and profits. Due to the decline in membership and revenue starting in 2020, we reorganized our internal staff by adding a broader team in each of the United States, Hong Kong and Singapore with direct selling and business development experience to head up and expand our operations across various geographies and revised our business plan to a multi-level membership tier model in 2022, with more products and services to be made available to our members. We created a new corporate structure, with subsidiaries in the U.S., Hong Kong and Singapore, that would allow for quick geographical expansion and turned our focus to the Hapi Café development.

 

We have 9,811 individuals with founding member status. This is a privileged class that will be able to enjoy continuous membership benefits in time to come given that they have trusted the company and joined at an early stage. Such benefits include the ability to purchase new memberships, in the model described below, at a favorable rate to be determined by the Company. They will also continue to be able to earn affiliate commissions as they sell our products in the marketplace and enjoy discounted rates when visiting Hapi Cafés until further notice. The total number of founding members was capped at 10,000. The Company is in the midst of implementing a new membership model that operates on a yearly subscription basis. While we are not currently selling memberships, we intend to resume membership sales under this new model.

 

Members will get exclusive discounts on HWH Marketplace products, priority invites to product launch events and other parties, and can earn passive income when a member’s referral signs up for membership or makes an initial purchase through the HWH Marketplace products through them.

 

Our segments include:

 

HWH Marketplace, which offers certain products manufactured by our affiliate companies, at a discounted price to our members. It is substantially in the development stage, as we have been in discussions regarding the import and export of these products internationally. The various aspects of the HWH Marketplace will be launched in phases across the various regions, each with their own timeline, depending on the completion of the establishment of the logistical aspects for implementation (i.e., payment gateway systems, business licenses, banking set up, import licenses, managerial resources, etc.) This will be an on-going process as we expand our product and service offering range. There are, however, certain limited products currently for sale at our Hapi Cafés, including spaghetti, a gig-economy business book and certain skincare products.

 

24

 

 

Hapi Cafés, which are, and will be, in-person, location-based social experiences, offer members the opportunity to build a sense of community with like-minded customers who share a potential interest in our products. The cafes expose our members to and educate them about the products and services of our affiliates, providing us with the chance to significantly increase our membership base as well as increase the amounts spent by our members on our affiliates’ products and services. Each of our cafés is a “Hapi Café.” We opened proof-of-concept Hapi Café locations in Seoul, the Republic of Korea and Singapore in May and July 2022, respectively, and plan to open additional Hapi Cafés as we beta test and further improve our business concept. We intend to grow our memberships as we grow the number of Hapi Cafés around the world. Hapi Cafe is positioned to be an integral part of HWH’s business model.

 

Our travel business is in the planning stage as we are working with our affiliates to determine the market-by-market services. Through our travel business, we plan to offer exclusive access to unpublished rates and discounts on air travel, cruises, car rentals, hotels, and resorts for members.

 

Hapi Wealth Builder is in the planning stage as we are exploring the options of providing services to our members through financial educational materials aimed at various types of investing opportunities. The team has been diligently producing digital content for Hapi Wealth Builder and working to collaborate with the right partners to launch the program and make it available to members. We have been establishing Hapi Cafés as venues and destinations that help build the credibility and reputation of the Company and its Hapi Wealth Builder business, which we intend to launch in 2024.

 

Our Revenue Model

 

Our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $286,110 and $200,562, respectively. Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1,336,519 and net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $171,849, respectively.

 

We currently recognize revenue from the sale of products, memberships and food and beverages to customers. Sales of memberships accounted for approximately 0% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 6% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2023. Sales of food and beverage accounted for approximately 100% and 94% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

 

From a geographical perspective, we recognized 4% and 96% of our total revenue in the three months ended on March 31, 2024, in South Korea and Singapore, respectively, and 13% and 87% in the three months ended March 31, 2023, in South Korea and Singapore, respectively.

 

We believe that, on an ongoing basis, the revenue generated from sales of membership will decline as a percentage of our total revenue as we expect to experience greater revenue contribution from our café business and product sales.

 

Matters that May or Are Currently Affecting Our Business

 

In addition to the matters described above, the primary challenges and trends that could affect or are affecting our financial results include:

 

● Our ability to improve our revenue through cross-selling and revenue-sharing arrangements among our group of companies;

 

● Our ability to identify complementary businesses for acquisition, obtain additional financing for these acquisitions, if and when needed, and profitably integrate them into our existing operation;

 

● Our ability to attract competent, skilled technical and sales personnel for each of our businesses at acceptable compensation levels to manage our overhead; and

 

● Our ability to control our operating expenses as we expand each of our businesses and product and service offerings.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes include all the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. They have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, allowance for credit losses, recoverability and useful lives of property, plant and equipment, the valuation allowance of deferred taxes, contingencies, and equity compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition and Cost of Sales

 

Product Sales: The Company’s performance obligation is to transfer ownership of its products to its members. The Company generally recognizes revenue when a product is delivered to its members. Revenue is recorded net of applicable taxes, allowances, refund or returns. The Company receives the net sales price in cash or through credit card payments at the point of sale.

 

If any member returns a product to the Company on a timely basis, they may obtain a replacement product from the Company for such returned products. Allowances for product and membership returns are provided at the time the sale is recorded. This accrual is based upon historical return rates for each country and the relevant return pattern, which reflects anticipated returns to be received over a period of up to 12 months following the original sale. Product and membership return for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 were approximately $0 and $1,162, respectively.

 

Membership Fee: The Company collects an annual membership fee from its members. The fee is fixed, paid in full at the time upon joining the membership; the fee is not refundable. The Company’s performance obligation is to provide its members with the right to (a) purchase products from the Company, (b) access to certain back-office services, (c) receive commissions and (d) attend corporate events. The associated performance obligation is satisfied over time, generally over the term of the membership agreement which is for a one-year period. The Company recognizes revenue from membership fee over the one-year period of membership.

 

Food and Beverage: The revenue received from Food and Beverage business in the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 were $286,110 and $187,776, respectively.

 

Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue consists of cost of procuring finished goods from suppliers and related shipping and handling fees.

Revenue

 

Revenue was $286,110 and $200,562 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Word of mouth, a social media presence, and the availability of meeting spaces are significant drivers of our revenue and revenue potential. Our revenue increased in 2024 due to the increased revenue from F&B business in Singapore.

 

Please see the following table below, which illustrates revenues received from memberships:

Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenues increased from $77,769 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $122,813 in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase is a result of the increase in sales of F&B business.

 

Sales commissions decreased from $11,868 to ($234) in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively, due to decrease in sale of memberships.

 

The gross margin increased from $122,793 to $163,297 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively. The increase of gross margin was caused by the increase in F&B revenue.

 

Operating expenses

 

Operating expenses increased from $736,391 to $1,495,383 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively, due to general and administrative expenses increased from $736,391 to $1,129,191 in the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively. The increase of general and administrative expenses in 2024 compared with 2024 was mostly caused by the increase in the operating expenses for the food and beverage business in Korea and Singapore and the professional fee due to the 10Q & S-4 filing.

 

Other income (expense)

 

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had other expense of $4,433 compared to other income of $960,620 in the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease due to interest income from $944,565 to $25,458 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash has decreased from $22,505,969 as of December 31, 2023 to $999,506 as of March 31, 2024. Our liabilities increased from $4,372,803 at December 31, 2023 to $5,526,158 at March 31, 2024. Our total assets have decreased to $2,558,159 as of March 31, 2024 from $23,710,684 as of December 31, 2023.

 

The Company believes that the available cash in the Company’s bank accounts, anticipated cash from operations, and financing availability from related parties are sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. The Company’s capital requirements for the planned expansion are based on, among other items, geographical specific property costs, team requirements, and marketing steps needed. Our expansion shall consist of plans to take over leases of existing Hapi Cafes we currently do not own, as we look to add Hapi Cafes over the next two (2) years. If we take over these existing leases, it will require a minimum investment for each lease we take over for each Hapi Café. Proceeds received as a result of the anticipated business combination, will allow us to seek these expansion plans. Depending on the amount of proceeds we raise as part of the anticipated business combination, we may or may not need or seek additional funding or alter our strategic growth plans after the business combination is effectuated. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our plans as laid out above.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not contain any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has obtained a letter of financial support from Alset International Limited and Alset Inc., a direct and indirect owner of the Company, respectively. Alset International Limited and Alset Inc. committed to provide any additional funding required by the Company and would not demand repayment through twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Lock-Up Agreements

 

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, at the closing, each of the HWH Holders holding more than 5% of the HWH Common Stock and certain members of HWH’s management team will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with Alset in substantially the form attached to the letter Agreement dated January 31, 2022 (the “Letter Agreement”) (each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”). Under the Lock-Up Agreement, each such holder will agree not to, during the period commencing from the Closing and with respect to the shares of Alset Common Stock to be received as part of the Merger Consideration by the HWH Holder (together with any securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such securities or into which such securities are exchanged or converted, the “Restricted Securities”), (A) ending on the earlier of six months after the date of the Closing, the date on which the closing sale price of shares of Alset Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing or (y) the date after the Closing on which Alset consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of Alset’s stockholders having the right to exchange their equity holdings in Alset for cash, securities or other property.

 

Termination of Subscription Agreement

 

On July 30, 2023, by and among Alset Capital Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and HWH International Inc., a Nevada corporation, on the one hand, and Meteora Special Opportunity Fund I, LP (“MSOF”), Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”), Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO”) and Meteora Strategic Capital, LLC, (“MSC”) (with MCP, MSOF, MSTO and MSC collectively as “Seller”), on the other hand (the “Confirmation”) and the Subscription Agreement entered into as of July 30, 2023, by and among ACAX and Seller (the “Subscription Agreement”). The Subscription Agreement has been terminated.

 

Impact of Inflation

 

We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023. We cannot assure you that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.

 

Impact of Foreign Exchange Rates

 

The effect of foreign exchange rate changes on the intercompany loans (under ASC 830), which mostly consist of loans from Singapore to South Korea and which were approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million on March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, are the reason for the fluctuation of foreign currency transaction Gain or Loss on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income. Because the intercompany loan balances between Singapore and South Korea will remain at approximately $2.7 million over the next year, we expect this fluctuation of foreign exchange rates to still impact the results of operations in 2024, especially given that the foreign exchange rate may and is expected to be volatile. If the amount of intercompany loan is lowered in the future, the effect will also be reduced. However, at this moment, we do not expect to repay the intercompany loans in the short term.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of these exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of this exemption.

Controls and Procedures

 

We are not currently required to maintain an effective system of internal controls as defined by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Only in the event that we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer would we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement. Further, for as long as we remain an emerging growth company as defined in the JOBS Act, we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement.

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements included in this prospectus. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s judgment and estimates concerning effects of events and transactions that are accounted for or disclosed.

 

Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to our ability to record, process, summarize and report reliable data. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of internal control. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.

 

In order to ensure that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, management regularly assesses controls and did so most recently for its financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. In connection with management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of our company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, management determined that our company did not maintain effective controls over financial reporting due to having a limited staff with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience. Management determined that the ineffective controls over financial reporting constitute a material weakness. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to appoint additional qualified personnel with financial accounting, GAAP and SEC experience.

 

This prospectus does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this prospectus.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

HWH International Inc. (“HWH”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) operate a food and beverage (“F&B”) business in Singapore and South Korea. The Company operates a membership model in which individuals pay an upfront membership fee to become members. As members, these individuals receive discounted access to products and services offered by the Company’s affiliates. Previously, the Company had approximately 9,000 members, primarily in South Korea. Currently, this membership business has been temporarily suspended.

 

HWH International Inc. was originally incorporated in Delaware on October 20, 2021 under the name Alset Capital Acquisition Corp. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company consummated the Business Combination on January 9, 2024 and changed its name from “Alset Capital Acquisition Corp.” to “HWH International Inc.” The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

On September 9, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, HWH International Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “HWH Nevada” or “Target”) and HWH Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). The Company and Merger Sub are sometimes referred to collectively as the “ACAX Parties.” Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and the Target was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into HWH Nevada, with the Target surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) on January 9, 2024, the Company changed its name to “HWH International Inc.” The board of directors of the Company (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and related transactions by the stockholders of the Company.

 

The Target was owned and controlled by certain member officers and directors of the Company and its sponsor. The Merger was consummated following the receipt of the required approval by the stockholders of the Company and the shareholders of the Target and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.

 

The total consideration paid at Closing (the “Merger Consideration”) by the Company to the Target’s shareholders was $125,000,000, and was payable in shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”). The number of shares of the Company Common Stock paid to the shareholders of the Target as Merger Consideration was 12,500,000, with each share being valued at $10.00.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial information. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or any other interim periods or for any other future years. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2023 filed on February 28, 2024 and audited consolidated financial statements of HWH Nevada for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the form 8-K/A filed with SEC on March 25, 2024.

 

Through November 30, 2023, HWH (then known as Alset Capital Acquisition Corp.) reported on a twelve month fiscal year that ended on November 30. In connection with the business combination, the Company’s fiscal year end was changed from November 30 to December 31. As a result of this change, the Company had a one-month transition period that began on December 1, 2023 and ended on December 31, 2023. For details see note 18 - Change in Fiscal Year.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its majority owned and controlled subsidiaries. The Company consolidates entities in which it owns more than 50% of the voting common stock and controls operations. All intercompany transactions and balances among consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated.

 

 

The following chart describes the Company’s ownership of various subsidiaries:

 

 

The Company mainly focuses on the F&B business. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, substantially all of the Company’s business was generated by its wholly owned subsidiaries, 0% and 6% from HWH World Inc. (“HWH Korea”) and 100% and 94% from F&B business respectively; 40% and 45% from Alset F&B One Pte. Ltd (“F&B1”), 4% and 7% from Hapi Café Korea Inc.(“HCKI”), 19% and 22% from Hapi Café SG Pte. Ltd. (“HCSGPL”), 17% and 21% from Alset F&B (PLQ) Pte. Ltd. (“F&BPLQ”) and 20% and 0% from Ketomei Pte. Ltd. (“KPL”). HWH Korea was incorporated in the Republic of Korea (“South Korea”) on May 7, 2019. HWH Korea is in the business of sourcing and distributing dietary supplements and other health products through its network of members in South Korea. HWH Korea generates product sales via its direct sale model as products are sold to its members. Through the use of a Hapi Gig platform that combines e-commerce, social media, and a customized rewards system, HWH Korea equips, trains, and empowers its members. F&B1 was incorporated in Singapore on April 10, 2017, HCSGPL was incorporated in Singapore on April 4, 2022, F&BPLQ was incorporated in Singapore on November 11, 2022 and KPL was incorporated in Singapore on September 17, 2019. F&B1, HCSGPL, F&BPLQ and KPL are in the F&B business in Singapore.

 

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Functional and Reporting Currency

 

The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“$”). The financial records of the Company’s subsidiaries located in South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia are maintained in their local currencies, the Korean Won (₩) Singapore Dollar (S$) Hong Kong Dollar (HK$) and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), which are also the functional currencies of these entities.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s 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 balance sheet.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the balance sheet, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash of $999,506 and $22,505,969 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

 

 

Investments held in Trust Account

 

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $24,874 and $21 million, respectively, in investments in treasury securities held in the Trust Account. In connection with the closing of Business Combination on January 9, 2024, Class A Common Stock stockholders redeemed 1,942,108 shares for approximately $21 million held in the Trust Account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 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: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions

 

For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying values reported in balance sheets for current assets and liabilities approximate their estimated fair market values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value. As of March 31, 2024, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value.

 

Leases

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 842 in accounting for its operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities. At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that contain related non-lease components, such as maintenance, the Company will account for these payments as a single lease component.

 

Right-of-use of assets

 

The right-of-use of asset is measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.

 

 

Lease liabilities

 

Lease liability is measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise mainly of fixed lease payments.

 

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

 

The Company has elected to not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low value assets. Lease payments associated with these leases are expensed as incurred.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less depreciation. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures incurred as a consequence of acquiring or using the asset, or that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. When property and equipment is retired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in statement of operations. Depreciation is computed by the reducing balance method (after considering their respective estimated residual values) over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

 

Office Equipment 35 years
Furniture and Fittings 35 years
Kitchen Equipment 35 years
Operating Equipment 35 years
Leasehold Improvements Shorter of lease life or asset life

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends, and prospects, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.

 

Deposit

 

Deposit represents mostly rental deposit paid for the office used.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which the determination of revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires the Company to apply the following steps:

 

(1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

 

The Company generates its revenue primarily from membership fees, product sales and F&B business.

 

 

Membership Fee: The Company collects an annual membership fee from its members. The fee is fixed, paid in full at the time upon joining the membership and is not refundable. The Company’s performance obligation is to provide its members the right to (a) purchase products from the Company, (b) access to certain back-office services, (c) receive commissions and (d) attend corporate events. The associated performance obligation is satisfied over time, generally over the term of the membership agreement which is for a one-year period. The Company recognizes revenue from membership fee over the one-year period of the membership.

 

Product Sales: The Company’s performance obligation is to transfer ownership of its products to its Members. The Company generally recognizes revenue when product is delivered to its members. Revenue is recorded net of applicable taxes, allowances, refund or returns. The Company receives the net sales price in cash or through credit card payments at the point of sale.

 

If any member returns a product to the Company on a timely basis, they may obtain a replacement product from the Company for such returned products. We do not have buyback program. However, when the customer requests a return and management decides that the refund is necessary, we initiate the refund after deducting all the benefits that a member has earned. The returns are deducted from our sales revenue on our financial statements. Allowances for product and membership returns are provided at the time the sale is recorded. This accrual is based upon historical return rates for each country and the relevant return pattern, which reflects anticipated returns to be received over a period of up to 12 months following the original sale. Product and membership returns for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $0 and $1,162, respectively. The table below represents a breakout of the returns related to product sales and the returns related to memberships:

 

   Membership   Products   Total 
   Returns 
   Membership   Products   Total 
   $   $   $ 
             
March 31, 2024   -    -    - 
March 31, 2023   1,162        -    1,162 

 

Food and Beverage: The revenue received from Food and Beverage business for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $286,110 and $187,776, respectively.

Sales commission   11,868 
Depreciation   14,375 
Total of Cost of revenue  $77,769 

 

Shipping and Handling Fees

 

The Company utilizes the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-25-18B to account for its shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, and not a promised service (a revenue element). Shipping and handling fees are included in costs of revenue within the statements of operations.

 

 

Commission Expense

 

The Company compensates its sales leaders with leadership incentives for services rendered, relating to the development, retention, and management of their sales organizations. Leadership incentives are payable based on achieved sales volume, which are recorded in cost of revenue. Member will get 25% commission of the membership fee income if the member successfully refers a new member to subscribe to the membership. The commission will be payable after the referee’s membership is confirmed and been paid by the new member.

 

Advertising Expenses

 

Costs incurred for advertising the Company’s products are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $2,242 and $4,095, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.

 

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.

 

The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in income tax expense.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares held by the Company.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for treasury shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible securities, such as stock options, convertible bonds and warrants. At March 31, 2024 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding. At March 31, 2023 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding and 909,875 potentially dilutive underlying rights.

 

Non-controlling interests

 

Non-controlling interests represent the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company, and are presented separately in the consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive income, and within equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, separately from equity attributable to owners of the Company.

 

On March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate non-controlling interests in the Company were $164,499 and $8,666, respectively.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss, a loss from operations and negative cash flow from operations as we expanded our business of operating cafés and restructured our membership business.

 

Notwithstanding the above, the Company believes that the available cash in the Company’s bank accounts, anticipated cash from operations, and financing availability from related parties are sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. The Company’s capital requirements for the planned expansion are based on, among other items, geographical specific property costs, team requirements, and marketing steps needed. Our expansion shall consist of plans to take over leases of existing Hapi Cafes we currently do not own, as we look to add Hapi Cafes over the next two (2) years. If we take over these existing leases, it will require a minimum investment for each lease we take over for each Hapi Café. Proceeds received as a result of the anticipated business combination, will allow us to seek these expansion plans. Depending on the amount of proceeds we raise as part of the anticipated business combination, we may or may not need or seek additional funding or alter our strategic growth plans after the business combination is effectuated. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our plans as laid out above.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not contain any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has obtained a letter of financial support from Alset International Limited and Alset Inc., a direct and indirect majority owner of the Company, respectively. Alset International Limited and Alset Inc. committed to provide any additional funding required by the Company and would not demand repayment through twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

MERGER WITH HWH INTERNATIONAL INC. (A NEVADA CORPORATION)

NOTE 3 - MERGER WITH HWH INTERNATIONAL INC. (A NEVADA CORPORATION)

 

HWH International Inc. (f.k.a. Alset Capital Acquisition Corp.; “SPAC”, the” Company”) was a special purpose acquisition company, incorporated in Delaware on October 20, 2021 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). On January 9, 2024, the Company, HWH International Inc. (a Nevada corporation, “HWH-NV”) and HWH Merger Sub Inc. consummated the merger (the “Reverse Recapitalization”) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger dated as of September 9, 2022.

 

The transaction was accounted for as a Reverse Recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, SPAC was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Reverse Recapitalization, HWH-NV stockholders comprise a majority of voting power on the Company, most of senior management of HWH-NV continued as senior management of the combined company and identified a majority of the members of the board of directors of the combined company, both companies are under common control; and HWH-NV’s operations comprise the ongoing operations of the combined company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Company is considered to be a continuation of HWH-NV, with the net identifiable assets of SPAC deemed to have been acquired by HWH-NV in exchange for HWH-NV common shares accompanied by a recapitalization, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded.

 

In connection with the business Combination:

 

  The holders of 8,591,072 Public Shares properly exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from the IPO.
     
  Immediately prior to the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization (i) each of the 1,972,896 shares of SPAC’s Class A Common Stock was cancelled and converted into 1,972,896 shares of the Company’s common stock; (ii) each of the issued and outstanding 2,156,250 shares of SPAC’s Class B Common Shares were converted into 2,156,250 shares of SPAC’s Class A Common Stock and subsequently into 2,156,250 shares of the Company’s common stock; (iii) each of the SPAC’s 476,890 units were split into their component securities; and (iv) 909,875 new shares of the Company’s common stock were issued in connection with the conversion of the SPAC’s rights into the Company’s common shares.

 

 

  12,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were delivered as consideration in the Business Combination
     
  149,443 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to a third party as payment for $1,509,375 of underwriting compensation.

 

The transaction described above was a transaction between entities under common control. SPAC, prior to the Business Combination, was in 26% owned by Alset International Limited a public company listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited and 32% owned by Alset Inc., the ultimate owner of both SPAC and HWH-NV. HWH-NV was wholly-owned by Alset International Limited. In the transactions under common control, financial statements and financial information were presented as of the beginning of the period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred at that date.

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts net of an allowance for credit losses and do not bear interest. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment. Management’s assessment of expected credit losses includes consideration of current and expected economic conditions, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers (including their financial condition), the aging of account balances, historical credit loss experience, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, and the existence of sources of payment The Company also establishes an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Accounts receivable considered uncollectible are charged against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the allowance for credit losses was an immaterial amount. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

NOTE 11 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On June 10, 2021, Hapi Café Inc. (“HCI”) signed a convertible loan agreement with Ketomei Pte. Ltd. (“Ketomei”), pursuant to which HCI has agreed to grant Ketomei a loan of an aggregate principal amount of $75,525 (SG$100,000). On March 21, 2022, HCI signed a legally binding term sheet with Ketomei, and HCI has agreed to invest in Ketomei $258,186 (SG$350,000) for 28% interest in Ketomei. The investment was partially paid by the $75,525 (SG$100,000) loan borrowed to Ketomei and the accrued interest of $6,022 (SG$6,433). The balance of $183,311 (SG$243,567) was paid in cash.

 

On July 28, 2022 HCI entered into binding term sheet with Ketomei and Tong Leok Siong Constant, pursuant to which HCI lent Ketomei $43,254 (SG$60,000). This loan had a 0% interest rate for the first 60 days and an interest rate of 8% per annum afterwards.

 

On August 4, 2022, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet (the “Second Term Sheet”) pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $260,600 (SG$360,000) pursuant to a convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 8%. As of August 31, 2023, the $263,766 (SG$360,000) loan was paid by the $214,903 (SG$293,310) loan borrowed to Ketomei and $48,862 (SG$66,690) was paid for the expenses on behalf of Ketomei. In addition, pursuant to the Second Term Sheet, the July 28, 2022, loan was modified to include conversion rights. The Parties agree that the conversion rate will be at approximately $0.022 per share.

 

On August 31, 2023, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $36,634 (SG$50,000) pursuant to a convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 3.5%. As of October 31, 2023, the $37,876 (SG$50,000) loan was paid to Ketomei.

 

On October 26, 2023, the same parties entered into another binding term sheet pursuant to which HCI agreed to lend Ketomei up to $37,876 (SG$50,000) pursuant to a non- convertible loan, with a term of 12 months. After the initial 12 months, the interest on such loan will be 3.5%. As of March 31, 2024, the $37,000 (SG$50,000) loan was paid by the $21,134 (SG$28,560) loan borrowed to Ketomei and $15,865 (SG$21,440) was paid for the expenses on behalf of Ketomei.

 

On February 20, 2024, the Company invested an additional $312,064 (SG$420,000) for an additional 38.41% ownership interest in Ketomei by converting $312,064 (SG$420,000) convertible loan. The loan was impaired at the year ended December 31, 2023, therefore, $312,064 (SG$420,000) was transferred from impairment of convertible loan to impairment of equity method investment. After this additional investment, the Company owns 55.65% of Ketomei’s outstanding shares and Ketomei is consolidated into the financial statements of HWH International Inc. beginning on February 20, 2024.

 

On March 20, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Sharing Services Global Corporation (“SHRG”), pursuant to which the Company purchased from SHRG a (i) Convertible Promissory Note (the “Convertible Note”) in the amount of $250,000, convertible into 208,333,333 shares of SHRG’s common stock at the option of the Company, and (ii) certain warrants exercisable into 208,333,333 shares of SHRG’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.0012 per share, the exercise period of the warrant being five (5) years from the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000. At the time of filing, the Company has not converted any of the debt contemplated by the Convertible Note nor exercised any of the warrants.

 

 

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

 

   Fair Value Measurement Using   Amount at 
   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Fair Value 
March 31, 2024

324,521

 
                                     
Total Investment in securities at Fair Value  $-   $466,188   $-   $466,188 

 

The fair value of the SHRG warrants under level 2 category as of March 31, 2024 was calculated using a Black-Scholes valuation model valued with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE WEIGHTED AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS

   March 31, 
   2024 
     
Stock price  $0.0016 
Exercise price  $0.0012 
Risk free interest rate   4.22%
      
Annualized volatility   136.81%
Dividend Yield  $0.00%
Year to maturity   4.96 

 

The Company has elected to recognize the convertible loan at fair value and therefore there was no further evaluation of embedded features for bifurcation. The Company engaged third party valuation firm to perform the valuation of convertible loans. The fair value of the convertible loans is calculated using the binomial tree model based on probability of remaining as straight debt using discounted cash flow with the following assumptions:

 

  

March 31,

2024

 
Risk-free interest rate   4.417%
Expected life   2.96 year 
Discount rate   6.00%
Expected volatility   132.407%
Expected dividend yield   0%
Fair value  $324,521 

 

Changes in the observable input values would likely cause material changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 2 financial instruments. A significant increase (decrease) in this likelihood would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement.

 

Revenue from F&B business amounting to approximately $1,344 and $1,314 was related to corporate sales. That revenue was derived from corporate sales to related parties who purchased meals and paid for their staff, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Included in Accounts Receivable, net at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is $8,953 and $7,405, respectively, of amounts due from related parties.

 

Included in other income during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is $1,819 and $1,723, respectively of rental income from related parties.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 12 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

The total amount of authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 56,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 55,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”), and (b) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”). As of March 31, 2024, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

 

The Company previously had shares of Class B common stock outstanding, which automatically converted into Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, on a one-for-one basis.

 

Rights - Each holder of a right automatically received one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination.

 

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

 

 

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Share of Class A Common Stock Equals or Exceeds $18.00 — Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

 

  in whole and not in part;
     
  at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;
     
  upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period to each warrant holder; and
     
  if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganization, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to warrant holders.

 

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

 

The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering except the Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.

 

The following table summarizes the warrant activity for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

LEASES

NOTE 13 —LEASES

 

The Company has operating leases for its office spaces in South Korea and two F&B stores in Singapore. The related lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Since the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate that can be readily determined, management uses a discount rate based on the incremental borrowing rate. The Company’s weighted-average remaining lease term relating to its operating leases is 1.23 years, with a weighted-average discount rate is 4%.

 

The Company has also utilized the following practical expedients:

 

  Short-term leases – for leases that are for a period of 12 months or less, the Company will not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842.
     
  For leases that contain related non-lease components, such as maintenance, the Company will account for these payments as a single lease component.

 

 

The current portion of operating lease liabilities and the non-current portion of operating lease liabilities are presented on the balance sheets. Total lease expenses amounted to $125,143 and $130,044 which were included in general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial information. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or any other interim periods or for any other future years. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2023 filed on February 28, 2024 and audited consolidated financial statements of HWH Nevada for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the form 8-K/A filed with SEC on March 25, 2024.

Emerging Growth Company

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Functional and Reporting Currency

Functional and Reporting Currency

 

The functional and reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“$”). The financial records of the Company’s subsidiaries located in South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia are maintained in their local currencies, the Korean Won (₩) Singapore Dollar (S$) Hong Kong Dollar (HK$) and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), which are also the functional currencies of these entities.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s 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 balance sheet.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the balance sheet, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash of $999,506 and $22,505,969 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

 

 

Investments held in Trust Account

Investments held in Trust Account

 

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $24,874 and $21 million, respectively, in investments in treasury securities held in the Trust Account. In connection with the closing of Business Combination on January 9, 2024, Class A Common Stock stockholders redeemed 1,942,108 shares for approximately $21 million held in the Trust Account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 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: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions

 

For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying values reported in balance sheets for current assets and liabilities approximate their estimated fair market values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

 

Inventory

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value. As of March 31, 2024, inventory consisted of finished goods procured from suppliers. The Company continuously evaluates the need for reserve for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to write-down inventory to its net realizable value.

 

Leases

Leases

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 842 in accounting for its operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities. At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that contain related non-lease components, such as maintenance, the Company will account for these payments as a single lease component.

 

Right-of-use of assets

Right-of-use of assets

 

The right-of-use of asset is measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.

 

 

Lease liabilities

Lease liabilities

 

Lease liability is measured at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise mainly of fixed lease payments.

 

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

 

The Company has elected to not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low value assets. Lease payments associated with these leases are expensed as incurred.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less depreciation. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures incurred as a consequence of acquiring or using the asset, or that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. When property and equipment is retired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in statement of operations. Depreciation is computed by the reducing balance method (after considering their respective estimated residual values) over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:

 

Office Equipment 35 years
Furniture and Fittings 35 years
Kitchen Equipment 35 years
Operating Equipment 35 years
Leasehold Improvements Shorter of lease life or asset life

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends, and prospects, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which the determination of revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires the Company to apply the following steps:

 

(1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

 

The Company generates its revenue primarily from membership fees, product sales and F&B business.

 

 

Membership Fee: The Company collects an annual membership fee from its members. The fee is fixed, paid in full at the time upon joining the membership and is not refundable. The Company’s performance obligation is to provide its members the right to (a) purchase products from the Company, (b) access to certain back-office services, (c) receive commissions and (d) attend corporate events. The associated performance obligation is satisfied over time, generally over the term of the membership agreement which is for a one-year period. The Company recognizes revenue from membership fee over the one-year period of the membership.

 

Product Sales: The Company’s performance obligation is to transfer ownership of its products to its Members. The Company generally recognizes revenue when product is delivered to its members. Revenue is recorded net of applicable taxes, allowances, refund or returns. The Company receives the net sales price in cash or through credit card payments at the point of sale.

 

If any member returns a product to the Company on a timely basis, they may obtain a replacement product from the Company for such returned products. We do not have buyback program. However, when the customer requests a return and management decides that the refund is necessary, we initiate the refund after deducting all the benefits that a member has earned. The returns are deducted from our sales revenue on our financial statements. Allowances for product and membership returns are provided at the time the sale is recorded. This accrual is based upon historical return rates for each country and the relevant return pattern, which reflects anticipated returns to be received over a period of up to 12 months following the original sale. Product and membership returns for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $0 and $1,162, respectively. The table below represents a breakout of the returns related to product sales and the returns related to memberships:

Shipping and Handling Fees

Shipping and Handling Fees

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.

 

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.

 

The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in income tax expense.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders of the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares held by the Company.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common stock shareholders and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for treasury shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible securities, such as stock options, convertible bonds and warrants. At March 31, 2024 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding. At March 31, 2023 there were 4,549,375 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding and 909,875 potentially dilutive underlying rights.

On March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate non-controlling interests in the Company were $164,499 and $8,666, respectively.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred a net loss, a loss from operations and negative cash flow from operations as we expanded our business of operating cafés and restructured our membership business.

 

Notwithstanding the above, the Company believes that the available cash in the Company’s bank accounts, anticipated cash from operations, and financing availability from related parties are sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. The Company’s capital requirements for the planned expansion are based on, among other items, geographical specific property costs, team requirements, and marketing steps needed. Our expansion shall consist of plans to take over leases of existing Hapi Cafes we currently do not own, as we look to add Hapi Cafes over the next two (2) years. If we take over these existing leases, it will require a minimum investment for each lease we take over for each Hapi Café. Proceeds received as a result of the anticipated business combination, will allow us to seek these expansion plans. Depending on the amount of proceeds we raise as part of the anticipated business combination, we may or may not need or seek additional funding or alter our strategic growth plans after the business combination is effectuated. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute on our plans as laid out above.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not contain any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has obtained a letter of financial support from Alset International Limited and Alset Inc., a direct and indirect majority owner of the Company, respectively. Alset International Limited and Alset Inc. committed to provide any additional funding required by the Company and would not demand repayment through twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

The Company has elected to recognize the convertible loan at fair value and therefore there was no further evaluation of embedded features for bifurcation. The Company engaged third party valuation firm to perform the valuation of convertible loans. The fair value of the convertible loans is calculated using the binomial tree model based on probability of remaining as straight debt using discounted cash flow with the following assumptions:
