2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

The Company has adopted its fiscal year-end to be December 31.

 

Basis of consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and its VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Use of estimates

 

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the balance sheets, and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Revenue recognition

 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” , the Company recognizes revenue from sales of goods when the following four revenue criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Revenue from supplies of beauty products is recognized when title and risk of loss are transferred and there are no continuing obligations to the customer. Title and the risks and rewards of ownership transfer to and accepted by the customer when the products are collected by the customer at the Company’s office. Revenue is recorded net of sales discounts, returns, allowances, and other adjustments that are based upon management’s best estimates and historical experience and are provided for in the same period as the related revenues are recorded. Based on limited operating history, management estimates that there was no sales return for the period reported.

 

Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenue includes the purchase cost of retail goods for re-sale to customers and packing materials (such as boxes). It excludes purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs and other costs of distribution network in cost of revenues.

 

Shipping and handling fees

 

Shipping and handling fees, if billed to customers, are included in revenue. Shipping and handling fees associated with inbound and outbound freight are expensed as incurred and included in selling and distribution expenses.

 

Shipping and handling fees are expensed as incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $669 and $1,488 respectively, while for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were $745 and $1,308 respectively.

Selling and distribution expenses

 

Selling and distribution expenses are primarily comprised of travelling and accommodation, transportation fees such as petrol, toll and parking and shipping and handling fees.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consisting of products available for sell, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost of inventory is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory reserve is recorded to write down the cost of inventory to the estimated market value due to slow-moving merchandise and damaged goods, which is dependent upon factors such as historical and forecasted consumer demand, and promotional environment. The Company takes ownership, risks and rewards of the products purchased. Write downs are recorded in cost of revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Depreciation of plant, equipment and software are calculated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives or lease terms generally as follows:

 

Classification   Estimated useful lives
Computer and software   5 years
Furniture and Fittings   5 years
Office equipment   10 years

Rennovation

  5 years

 

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets represented the registration costs of trademarks in Hong Kong, China, and Malaysia, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over a useful life of five years.

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 350 in accounting for intangible assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. There was no impairment losses recorded on intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Income taxes

 

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ” (“ASC Topic 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

The Company conducts major businesses in Malaysia and Hong Kong, and is expanding to China and Thailand. The Company is subject to tax in these jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company will file tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authority.

Net income/(loss) per share

 

The Company calculates net income/(loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income/(loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

 

Foreign currencies translation

 

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income

 

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs in Malaysia, Hong Kong, China and Thailand maintains their books and record in their local currency, Ringgits Malaysia (“RM”), Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”), Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”) and Thai Baht (“THB”) respectively, which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which the entity operates.

 

In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement” , using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of stockholders’ equity.

 

Translation of amounts from RM into US$1, HK$ into US$1, RMB into US$1 and THB into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

 

    As of and for the six months ended June 30,  
    2016     2015  
             
Period-end RM : US$1 exchange rate     4.03       3.78  
Period-average RM : US$1 exchange rate     4.16       3.64  
Period-end HK$ : US$1 exchange rate     7.75       7.75

Fair value of financial instruments:

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable and approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments..

 

The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” (“ASC 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 : Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

 

Level 2 : Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3 : Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

Segment reporting

 

ASC Topic 280, “ Segment Reporting ” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company operates in two reportable operating segment in Malaysia and Hong Kong.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

FASB issues various Accounting Standards Updates relating to the treatment and recording of certain accounting transactions. On June 10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915) - Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation , which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity (DSE) entirely from current accounting guidance. The Company has elected adoption of this standard, which eliminates the designation of DSEs and the requirement to disclose results of operations and cash flows since inception.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update to defer by one year the effective dates of its new revenue recognition standard until annual reporting periods beginning after January December 15, 2017 (2018 for calendar-year public entities) and interim periods therein. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting. We do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”), which establishes management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term “substantial doubt” and requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. Management will also be required to evaluate and disclose whether its plans alleviate that doubt. The guidance is effective for the annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statement presentation and disclosures. We do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

Company Overview

 

DSwiss, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 28, 2015. DSwiss Holding Limited owns 100% of DSwiss (HK) Limited, a Hong Kong Company, which owns 100% of DSwiss Sdn Bhd, the operating Malaysia Company of which is described below. In 2016, DSwiss (HK) Limited invested in DSwiss Biotech Sdn Bhd, incorporated in Malaysia, and owned 40% equity interest. DSwiss (HK) Limited also invested in DS Asia Co., Ltd, incorporated in Thailand, and owned 49% equity interest. We have incorporated a new company namely DSwiss International Trading (Shenzhen) Limited in China, with 100% equity interest owned by DSwiss (HK) Limited.

 

Our Company is a beauty supply company formed with the goal of supplying high quality beauty products directly to our clients. Our beauty supplies include, but are not limited to, beverages to assist in burning and reducing fat, anti-aging creams, and products designed to improve the overall health and physical appearance of our clients. Currently we supply our products solely in Malaysia and Hong Kong, however we have intentions to expand to Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Macau and China in the next year, and subsequent to that we will make efforts to expand throughout the world.

 

At this time we operate exclusively online through our website: http://www.dswissbeauty.com/

 

Our company continuously strives to improve the already high standard of our goods and services through ongoing research and market development. We are going to penetrate into South East Asia markets through the recruitment of distributors and via the social media like Facebook and Instagram. We foresee to spend a substantial amount in marketing and advertising in the coming year. At DSwiss we are determined to bring new products to markets that we have not yet explored.

 

Products which meet the definition of a medicinal scope need to be registered with the Drug Control Authority (DCA), Ministry of Health Malaysia. Manufacturing, marketing, importation and the sale of unregistered products is a violation of the Drug Control Regulations and Cosmetics Act 1984 of Malaysia and enforcement action can be taken.

 

Among the products offered by DSwiss, “Coffee Plus”, “Kiwi Cell Detox” and “Triple Stem Cell” are not controlled by the DCA since the medicinal component of the products is no more than 20%.

 

For the remaining products offered by DSwiss, “Silk Mask”, “Coffee Slimming Scrub” and “Peppermint Slimming Gel” are classified as drug and cosmetic items and need to be registered with the DCA. These products have been approved by DCA with a validity period for 2 years starting from mid 2014.

 

We always strive to offer products as high quality as possible, and hope that this assurance from an esteemed regulatory body will also serve to prove our continuing commitment to providing quality goods.

 

Our expected growth is planned to occur primarily through the implementation of our social media marketing strategy. DSwiss already has a strong relationship with social media (eg. Facebook, Instagram and Wechat). The global presence social media has helped provide to us has been an invaluable resource, and as we continue to expand our business operations and spread our brand awareness we intend to primarily utilize social media to reach our customers. The benefits of social media are countless, but perhaps the most imperative to our future success is our ability to connect with customers directly, to receive their feedback almost instantaneously. On that note, the feedback we have received from our clients has been overwhelmingly positive, which has helped us to create a robust brand image.

 

While DSwiss has been focused almost exclusively upon pursuing operations within Asia, we do have plans to expand outward and become a household name across the world. Our strategy to do so going forward is by forming partnerships with local companies in various countries that may be willing to stock our products or promote them to their own customers. We believe that by forging strategic relationships and partnerships we can expand our operations across the globe at a greater pace and with greater certainty than we would if we tried to expand on our own.

 

Results of Operation

 

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we realized revenue in the amount of $68,479 and $95,869 respectively, while for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 we realized revenues in the amount of $21,897 and $75,345 respectively. Our gross profits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $15,093 and $32,462 respectively, which is greater than $5,029 and $32,044 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. We attribute the increase in revenue and gross profit to increase of market exposure and the introduction of new products in 2016. We believe that in order to retain and maintain more customers in the future we must increase our marketing efforts and or develop new products.

*Our gross margins may not be comparable to those of other entities, since some entities include all the costs related to their distribution network in cost of revenue. Our cost of revenue includes only the purchase cost of products and packing materials, and does not include any allocation of inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs, and the other costs associated with the distribution network.

 

Our net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $125,344 and $197,083 respectively, while for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were $13,602 and $46,490 respectively. We attribute this decrease due to additional cost incurred to increase product sales and market share.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 our assets totaled $795,574 due to large increases in cash and cash equivalents. Besides the increase in sales over the six months ended June 30, 2016, the sale of convertible notes to accredited investors attributed to this cash increase via cash infusions. The accredited investors who provided these cash infusions are not our officers or directors, nor are they affiliates of the Company.

 

The introduction of Malaysia Goods & Services Tax (GST) is still has effect on the selling price and hence the revenue. Malaysia Goods & Services Tax of 6% was implemented on April 1, 2015. It causes the increase of selling price of products offered by the Company.

The cost of sales also increased because of the increase in revenue.

 

The increases in general and administrative expenses are a result of advertising, new company formation, preparation costs for listing on the OTC market, compliance costs as a public company.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $698,269. We have negative operating cash flows and our working capital has been and will continue to be significant. As a result, we depend substantially on financing activities to provide us with the liquidity and capital resources we need to meet our working capital requirements and to make capital investments in connection with ongoing operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 we have meet these requirements primarily by issuance of our convertible promissory notes. The Company expects its current capital resources to meet our basic operating requirements for approximately twelve months.

 

Operating Activities

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, net cash used in operating activities was $201,630, compared to net cash used of $23,165 in the prior year. The operating cash flow performance primarily reflects the increase in net loss due to increase in general and administrative expenses for new company formation and preparation costs for listing on the OTC, the increase in inventories and other payables and accrued liabilities.

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

FASB issues various Accounting Standards Updates relating to the treatment and recording of certain accounting transactions. On June 10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915) - Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation, which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity (DSE) entirely from current accounting guidance. The Company has elected adoption of this standard, which eliminates the designation of DSEs and the requirement to disclose results of operations and cash flows since inception..

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update to defer by one year the effective dates of its new revenue recognition standard until annual reporting periods beginning after January December 15, 2017 (2018 for calendar-year public entities) and interim periods therein. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting. We do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”), which establishes management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term “substantial doubt” and requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. Management will also be required to evaluate and disclose whether its plans alleviate that doubt. The guidance is effective for the annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statement presentation and disclosures. We do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations

Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

 

Item 4 Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

 

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2016. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ending June 30, 2016, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
