UBI BLOCKCHAIN INTERNET, LTD.

You should read the more detailed information contained in this prospectus, including but not limited to, the risk factors beginning on page 3. References to “we,” “us,” “our,” “UBI Blockchain Internet, Ltd.” or the “Company” mean UBI Blockchain Internet, Ltd.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend, and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this Prospectus.

 

Our Company

 

The Company was organized August 26, 2010 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as JA Energy. The Company was incorporated as a subsidiary of Reshoot Production Company, a Nevada corporation. Reshoot Production Company was incorporated October 31, 2007, and, at the time of spin off was listed on the Over-the- Counter Bulletin Board. On November 21, 2016, the Company reincorporated in Delaware under the name UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd. The Company has no revenues and has yet to develop any products for sale.

 

UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd. business encompasses the research and application of blockchain technology with a focus on the Internet of things covering areas of food, drugs and healthcare. Management plans to focus its business in the integrated wellness industry, by providing procedures for safety and effectiveness in food and drugs, but also preventing counterfeit or fake food and drugs. With the advancement of the blockchain technology, the Company plans to trace a food or drug product from its original source within the context of the Internet of Things to the final consumer.

We have incurred an unaudited accumulated deficit of $(5,677,344) since our inception on August 26, 2010 through the interim period of May 31, 2017 and have had to rely on, Tony Liu, our CEO, to loan us monies to fund our operations. We are a development stage company and management is uncertain that the Company can generate sufficient revenues in the next 12-months to sustain our operations. We shall need to seek additional funding to continue our operations and implement our plan of operations.

 

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our financial obligations and to pay our liabilities as they become due, in their report on our financial statements for the period for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017, our registered independent auditors included additional comments indicating concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017, we experienced an audited operating loss of $(1,827,079). As of August 31, 2017, we had audited cash on hand of $15,406 and current portion of prepaid stock-based salaries and consulting fees of $1,300,000 for total current assets of $1,315,406. Our audited current liabilities as of August 31, 2017 is $585,506. In order to keep the company operational and fully reporting, management anticipates a burn rate of approximately $220,000 per month, pre and post-offering.

 

Without any additional funding, the Company will be unable to operate. Therefore, if we are unable to generate sufficient revenues, we must raise additional capital in order to continue operations in order to implement our plan of operations.

RISK FACTORS

 

Please consider the following risk factors before deciding to invest in our common stock.

 

This offering and any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and all of the information contained in this Prospectus before deciding whether to purchase our common stock.

 

If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed. An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this Prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

WE HAVE LIMITED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION UPON WHICH YOU MAY EVALUATE OUR PERFORMANCE.

 

We have a limited operating history and we are subject to all risks inherent in a developing business enterprise. The Company has no revenues and has yet to develop any products for sale.

 

Our likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the development of blockchain technology with a focus on the Internet of things covering areas of food, drugs and healthcare and the competitive environment in which we operate. You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stages of research. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating and acquisition strategies. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and could impair the value of our common stock to the point that the investors may lose their entire investment. Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not be able to generate positive cash flows or profits that we anticipate in the future.

 

  8  
     

 

Our auditors have made reference to the substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.

 

Our financial statements included with this Registration Statement for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2017 August 31, 2016, have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our auditors have made reference to the substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report on our audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016. Because the Company has been issued an opinion by its auditors that substantial doubt exists as to whether the Company can continue as a going concern, it may be more difficult for the Company to attract investors. Since our auditors have raised a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, this typically results in greater difficulty to obtain loans than businesses that do not have a qualified auditors opinion. Additionally, any loans we might obtain may be on less advantageous terms. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from our business. We plan to seek additional funds from additional loans made to us by Tony Liu, our CEO or through private placements of our common stock. You may be investing in a company that will not have the funds necessary to continue to deploy its business strategies. If we are not able to achieve sufficient revenues or find financing to cover our expenses, then we likely will be forced to cease operations and investors will likely lose their entire investment.

 

  9  
     

 

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTAIN PROFITABILITY WITHOUT ADDITIONAL FUNDING, WHICH MAY BE UNAVAILABLE TO US.

 

We have prepared audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016. For the period from inception (August 26, 2010) through the year end for August 31, 2017, we experienced an accumulated deficit of $6,343,426. Our ability to continue to operate as a going concern is fully dependent upon the Company obtaining sufficient financing to continue its development and operational activities. The ability to achieve profitable operations is in direct correlation to our ability to generate revenues or raise sufficient financing. It is important to note that even if the appropriate financing is received, there is no guarantee that we will ever be able to operate profitably or derive any significant revenues from its operation. If we run out of cash reserves, we would be forced to cease operations.

 

No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain access to capital markets in the future or that financing, adequate to satisfy the cash requirements of implementing our business strategies, will be available on acceptable terms. The inability of the Company to gain access to capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material adverse effect upon the results of its operations and upon its financial conditions.

 

BASED ON OUR BURN RATE, IF we are unable to obtain additional funding our business will fail and our shares may be worthless.

 

We have limited financial resources. As of August 31, 2017, we had 15,406 cash available, current portion of prepaid stock-based salaries and consulting fees of $1,300,000 and office equipment valued at $17,950, non-current portion of prepaid stock-based salaries and consulting fees of $493,333 and website development of $92,035 for total assets of $1,918,724. Our current burn rate is approximately $220,000 per month. Based on our current burn rate, we will run out of funds immediately without additional capital. If we fail to raise sufficient funds to keep our business operational, investors may lose their entire cash investment. There is no assurance that we can raise funding or that we will have sufficient funds to repay any indebtedness, or that we will not default on our debt obligations, jeopardizing our business viability. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our business plans and possibly cease our operations.

 

THE NATURE OF OUR OPERATIONS ARE HIGHLY SPECULATIVE.

 

The success of our plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management. Our business concept revolves around “developing IoT, e-blockchain, and other technologies.” Our business model is not yet established in the industry and we will have to convince our customers to use our products and services.

 

Management believes that we will be successful in marketing our services, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract sufficient consumers to achieve profitability or even generate anything but minimal revenues. If our intended products and services are not accepted by consumers, we will fail.

 

COMPANY RISK FACTORS

 

Article IX of our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other stockholders.

 

Article IX of our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, another state or federal court located in the State of Delaware) shall be the exclusive forum for: (1) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the corporation, (2) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by, or other wrongdoing by, any director, officer, employee, agent or stockholder of the corporation to the corporation or the corporation’s stockholders, (3) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law or the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, (4) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or (5) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each such case subject to said Court of Chancery having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants therein. This exclusive forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other stockholders, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other stockholders. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision in our Articles to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

  10  
     

 

BECAUSE OUR OPERATIONS ARE CONCENTRATED IN CHINA OUR STOCKHOLDERS WOULD FACE DIFFICULTY IN ENFORCING THEIR LEGAL RIGHTS UNDER UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAWS.

 

Our operations are concentrated in China and our stockholders would face difficulty in enforcing their legal rights under United States securities laws in light of our management’s location outside of the United States. Legal protections and remedies available to the company for certain harmful action taken against it will be pursued within the People’s Republic of China legal system, which differs from the U.S. legal system in significant ways. Because the company conducts operations outside of the U.S. it is difficult to pursue legal matters is subject to limitations imposed by other jurisdictions. It is limited ability for U.S. regulators’ to conduct investigations and inspections within China. There may be restrictions on the transfer of cash into and out of China, as well as on the exchange of currency, which may constrain the company’s liquidity and impede its ability to use cash in its operations.

 

U.S. investors may experience difficulties in attempting to effect a service of process and enforce judgments based upon U.S. Federal Securities Laws against our company and its non U.S. resident officers and directors.

 

We are a Delaware corporation and, as such, we are subject to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware and the United States courts for purposes of any lawsuit, action or proceeding by investors herein. An investor would have the ability to effect service of process in any action on the company within the United States. However, since Mr. Tony Liu, our CEO, Chan Cheung, our CFO and two of our three directors reside outside the United States substantially all or a portion of the assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to:

 

  Effect service of process within the United States against our non-U.S. resident officers or directors;
     
  Enforce U.S. court judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against any of the above referenced foreign persons in the United States;
     
  Enforce in foreign courts U.S. court judgments based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against the above foreign persons; and
     
  Bring an original action in foreign courts to enforce liabilities based upon the U.S. federal securities laws against the above foreign persons.

 

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE WITH OTHER COMPANIES, SOME OF WHOM HAVE GREATER RESOURCES AND EXPERIENCE.

 

We do not have the resources to compete with larger providers of these similar services at this time. With the limited, if not minimal, resources the Company has available, the Company may experience great difficulties in building a customer base. Competition from existing and future competitors could result in the Company’s inability to secure any new customers. This competition from other entities with greater resources and reputations may result in the Company’s failure to maintain or expand its business as the Company may never be able to successfully execute its business plan. Further, we cannot be assured that it will be able to compete successfully against present or future competitors or that the competitive pressure it may face will not force the Company to cease operations.

 

  11  
     

 

We may be unable to gain any significant market acceptance for our products and services or be unable establish a significant market presence.

 

Our growth strategy is substantially dependent upon our ability to market our intended products and services successfully to prospective clients in the target markets, which shall initially be China, Europe and the United States. This requires that we heavily rely upon our development and marketing partners in the target markets. Failure to select the right development and marketing partners in the target markets and other target markets will significantly delay or prohibit our ability to develop our intended products and services, market the products and gain market acceptance. Our intended products and services may not achieve significant market acceptance. If acceptance is achieved, it may not be sustained for any significant period of time. Failure of our intended products and services to achieve or sustain market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and the results of our operations.

 

If potential users within the target markets do not widely adopt online or UBI fails to achieve and sustain sufficient market acceptance, we will not generate sufficient revenue and our growth prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

 

UBI may never gain significant acceptance in the marketplace and, therefore, may never generate substantial revenue or allow us to achieve or maintain profitability. Widespread adoption of virtual and online training portals in the target markets depends on many factors, including acceptance by users that such systems and methods or other options. Our ability to achieve commercial market acceptance for UBI or any other future products also depends on the strength of our sales, marketing and distribution organizations.

 

We may not be able to attract qualified professionals, academics, university professors and communication professionals from around the world, which will decrease the value of technological innovation platform and may make it difficult to differentiate UBI from other online services providers.

 

Our strategy includes developing relationships with professionals, academics, university professors and communication professionals from around the world. If we are unable to establish relationships with these professionals, academics, university professors and communication professionals that UBI’s technological innovation platform is not effective or that alternative products are more effective, or if we encounter difficulty promoting adoption or establishing UBI as a standard, our ability to achieve market acceptance of UBI could be significantly limited.

 

  12  
     

 

We may not be able to develop new products or enhance the capabilities of UBI to keep pace with our industry’s rapidly changing technology and customer requirements.

 

The industry for blockchain technology is characterized by rapid technological changes, new product introductions, enhancements, and evolving industry standards. Our business prospects depend on our ability to develop new products and applications for our technology in new markets that develop as a result of technological and scientific advances, while improving the performance and cost-effectiveness. New technologies, techniques or products could emerge that might offer better combinations of price and performance than UBI systems. The market for online or virtual healthcare market is characterized by rapid innovation and advancement in technology. It is important that we anticipate changes in technology and market demand. If we do not successfully innovate and introduce new technology into our anticipated product lines or effectively manage the transitions of our technology to new product offerings, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

 

Cyber security risks could adversely affect our business and disrupt our operations.

 

The threats to network and data security are increasingly diverse and sophisticated. Despite our efforts and processes to prevent breaches, our devices, as well as our servers, computer systems, and those of third parties that we use in our operations are vulnerable to cyber security risks, including cyber attacks such as viruses and worms, phishing attacks, denial-of-service attacks, physical or electronic break-ins, employee theft or misuse, and similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering with our servers and computer systems or those of third parties that we use in our operations, which could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of critical data, and loss of consumer confidence.

 

In addition, we may be the target of email scams that attempt to acquire sensitive information or company assets. Despite our efforts to create security barriers to such threats, we may not be able to entirely mitigate these risks. Any cyber attack that attempts to obtain our data and assets, disrupt our service, or otherwise access our systems, or those of third parties we use, if successful, could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition, be expensive to remedy, and damage our reputation.

 

  13  
     

 

Our financial performance is subject to risks associated with changes in the value of the U.S. dollar versus local currencies.

 

Our primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar denominated sales and operating expenses worldwide. Weakening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar adversely affects the U.S. dollar value of our foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, and generally leads us to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for our intended products and services. In some circumstances, for competitive or other reasons, we may decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, or at all, which would adversely affect the U.S. dollar value of our foreign currency denominated sales and earnings. Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, while generally beneficial to our foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, could cause us to reduce international pricing, incur losses on our foreign currency derivative instruments, and incur increased operating expenses thereby limiting any benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase our cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

 

We do not use derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward and option contracts, to hedge certain exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

 

We may acquire other businesses, form joint ventures or make investments in other companies or technologies that could negatively affect our operating results, dilute our stockholders’ ownership, increase our debt or cause us to incur significant expense.

 

We may pursue acquisitions of businesses and assets. We also may pursue strategic alliances and joint ventures that leverage our proprietary technology and industry experience to expand our offerings or distribution. We have no experience with acquiring other companies and limited experience with forming strategic partnerships. We may not be able to find suitable partners or acquisition candidates, and we may not be able to complete such transactions on favorable terms, if at all. If we make any acquisitions, we may not be able to integrate these acquisitions successfully into our existing business, and we could assume unknown or contingent liabilities.

 

Any future acquisitions also could result in the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or future write-offs of intangible assets or goodwill, any of which could have a negative impact on our cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. Integration of an acquired company also may disrupt ongoing operations and require management resources that we would otherwise focus on developing our existing business. We may experience losses related to investments in other companies, which could harm our financial condition and results of operations. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition, strategic alliance or joint venture.

 

  14  
     

 

Foreign acquisitions involve unique risks in addition to those mentioned above, including those related to integration of operations across different cultures and languages, currency risks and the particular economic, political and regulatory risks associated with specific countries.

 

To finance any acquisitions or joint ventures, we may choose to issue shares of common stock as consideration, which could dilute the ownership of our stockholders. Additional funds may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, or at all. If the price of our Common Stock is low or volatile, we may not be able to acquire other companies or fund a joint venture project using our stock as consideration .

 

THERE MAY BE A POSSIBLE INABILITY TO FIND SUITABLE EMPLOYEES.

 

In order to implement our business plan, management recognizes that additional staff will be required. No assurances can be given that we will be able to find suitable employees that can support our needs or that these employees can be hired on favorable terms. We do not plan to hire any additional employees until our cash flows can justify the expense.

 

Risks Related to Being a Public Company

 

IF WE FAIL TO MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROLS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCURATELY REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS OR PREVENT FRAUD AND AS A RESULT, INVESTORS MAY BE MISLED AND LOSE CONFIDENCE IN OUR FINANCIAL REPORTING AND DISCLOSURES, AND THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE NEGATIVELY AFFECTED.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we report annually on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. A “significant deficiency” means a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the Company’s 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 annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

As of August 31, 2017, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.

In addition, in connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we may discover “material weaknesses” in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

 

Failure to provide effective internal controls may cause investors to lose confidence in our financial reporting and may negatively affect the price of our common stock. Moreover, effective internal controls are necessary to produce accurate, reliable financial reports and to prevent fraud. If we have deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting, these deficiencies may negatively impact our business and operations.

 

IN THE FUTURE, WE WILL INCUR INCREMENTAL COSTS AS A RESULT OF OPERATING AS A PUBLIC COMPANY.

 

We will incur legal, accounting and other expenses as a fully-reporting public company. Moreover, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have imposed various new requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. Although we have not operated the business of UBI Blockchain as a public company, since JA Energy, the company’s predecessor, has been a public company since 2010 expect to incur approximately $40,000 of incremental operating expenses in 2017. We project that the total incremental operating expenses of being a public company will be approximately $45,000 for 2018. The incremental costs are estimates, and actual incremental expenses could be materially different from these estimates. Unless we can generate sufficient revenues and profits, we may not be able to absorb the costs of being a public company.

 

As a result of operating as a public company, our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

 

We have never operated as a public company. As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, and rules subsequently implemented and yet to be implemented by the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission have imposed and will impose various new requirements on public companies. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these new compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect these new rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage.

 

  16  
     

 

In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In particular, we must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Compliance will require us to increase our general and administrative expense in order to pay added compliance personnel, outside legal counsel and consultants to assist us in, among other things, external reporting, instituting and monitoring a more comprehensive compliance function and board governance function, establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and preparing and distributing periodic public reports in compliance with our obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws. We currently do not have an internal audit group, and we will evaluate the need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, the market price of our stock could decline.

Risks Related to Administrative, Organizational and Commercial Operations and Growth

 

The loss of our Chief Executive Officer or our inability to attract and retain highly skilled developers and other personnel could negatively impact our business.

 

Our success depends on the skills, experience and performance of Tony, Liu, our Chief Executive Officer, and other key employees. The individual and collective efforts of these employees will be important as we continue to develop and as we expand our commercial activities. The loss or incapacity of existing members of our executive management team could negatively impact our operations if we experience difficulties in hiring qualified successors. We do not have any employment agreements in place for our executive officers; the existence of an employment agreement does not guarantee the retention of the executive officer for any period of time.

 

Our use of “open source” software could negatively affect our ability to sell our INTENDED products and subject us to possible litigation.

 

A portion of the technologies we use incorporates “open source” software. Such open source software is generally licensed by its authors or other third parties under open source licenses. These licenses may subject us to certain unfavorable conditions, including requirements that we offer our intended products and services that incorporate the open source software for no cost, that we make publicly available source code for modifications or derivative works we create based upon, incorporating, or using the open source software, or that we license such modifications or derivative works under the terms of the particular open source license. Additionally, if a third-party software provider has incorporated open source software into software that we license from such provider, we could be required to disclose or provide at no cost any of our source code that incorporates or is a modification of such licensed software. If an author or other third party that distributes open source software that we use or license were to allege that we had not complied with the conditions of the applicable license, we could be required to incur significant legal expenses defending against such allegations and could be subject to significant damages and enjoined from the sale of our intended products and services that contained the open source software. Any of the foregoing could disrupt the distribution and sale of our intended products and services and harm our business.

 

  18  
     

 

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

 

If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, our business and competitive position could be harmed.

 

We plan to rely upon patents, trademarks, copyright and trade secret protection, as well as non-disclosure agreements and invention assignment agreements with our employees, consultants and third parties, to protect our confidential and proprietary information. Significant elements of our intended products and services are based on unpatented trade secrets and know-how that are not publicly disclosed. In addition to contractual measures, we try to protect the confidential nature of our proprietary information using physical and technological security measures. Such measures may not, for example, in the case of misappropriation of a trade secret by an employee or third party with authorized access, provide adequate protection for our proprietary information. Our security measures may not prevent an employee or consultant from misappropriating our trade secrets and providing them to a competitor, and recourse we take against such misconduct may not provide an adequate remedy to protect our interests fully. Enforcing a claim that a party illegally disclosed or misappropriated a trade secret can be difficult, expensive and time-consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, trade secrets may be independently developed by others in a manner that could prevent legal recourse by us. If any of our confidential or proprietary information, such as our trade secrets, were to be disclosed or misappropriated, or if any such information was independently developed by a competitor, our competitive position could be harmed.

 

We may infringe the intellectual property rights of others, which may prevent or delay our product development efforts and stop us from commercializing or increase the costs of commercializing our intended products and services.

 

Our commercial success depends significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties. For example, there could be issued patents of which we are not aware that our products infringe. There also could be patents that we believe we do not infringe, but that we may ultimately be found to infringe. Moreover, patent applications are in some cases maintained in secrecy until patents are issued. The publication of discoveries in the scientific or patent literature frequently occurs substantially later than the date on which the underlying discoveries were made and patent applications were filed. Because patents can take many years to issue, there may be currently pending applications of which we are unaware that may later result in issued patents that our products infringe. For example, pending applications may exist that provide support or can be amended to provide support for a claim that results in an issued patent that our product infringes.

 

  19  
     

 

Our software is built upon open-sourced code and platforms. Nevertheless, there is a risk a third party may assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization. If a court held that any third-party patents are valid, enforceable and cover our products or their use, the holders of any of these patents may be able to block our ability to commercialize our products unless we obtained a license under the applicable patents, or until the patents expire. We may not be able to enter into licensing arrangements or make other arrangements at a reasonable cost or on reasonable terms. Any inability to secure licenses or alternative technology could result in delays in the introduction of our products or lead to prohibition of the manufacture or sale of products by us.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

 

The price of our Common Stock may be volatile and may be influenced by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control .

 

Factors that could cause volatility in the market price of our Common Stock include, but are not limited to:

 

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition and operating results;
   
actual or anticipated changes in our growth rate relative to our competitors;
   
commercial success and market acceptance of UBI;
   
success of our competitors in discovering, developing or commercializing products;
   
strategic transactions undertaken by us;
   
additions or departures of key personnel;
   
prevailing economic conditions;
   
disputes concerning our intellectual property or other proprietary rights;
   
sales of our Common Stock by our officers, directors or significant stockholders;
   
future sales or issuances of equity or debt securities by us;
   
business disruptions caused by earthquakes, tornadoes or other natural disasters; and
   
issuance of new or changed securities analysts’ reports or recommendations regarding us.

 

In addition, the stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has been often unrelated to the operating performance of the issuer. These broad market fluctuations may negatively impact the price or liquidity of our Common Stock. In the past, when the price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the issuer. If any of our stockholders were to bring such a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit and the attention of our management would be diverted from the operation of our business.

UBI Blockchain Internet LTD, a hong Kong Company controls 99.2% OF THE TOTAL VOTING POWER OF OUR CAPITAL that will allow them to control the Company.

 

As of December 21 , 2017, UBI Blockchain Internet LTD., a Hong Kong Company, beneficially owned by Tony Liu, our CEO, controls approximately 99.1% of the total voting power of our outstanding capital stock. As a result, UBI Blockchain Internet LTD. will have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval including:

 

a) election of our board of directors;

 

b) removal of any of our directors;

 

c) amendment of our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws; and

 

d) adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving us.

 

As a result of its ownership UBI Blockchain Internet LTD, the Hong Kong company has the ability to influence all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, the future prospect of sales of significant amounts of shares held by UBI Blockchain Internet LTD, the Hong Kong company could affect the market price of our common stock if the marketplace does not orderly adjust to the increase in shares in the market and the value of your investment in the Company may decrease. UBI Blockchain Internet LTD, the Hong Kong company’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price

 

Our Common Stock is or may become subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.

 

Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (a) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (b) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

  21  
     

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must: (a) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person and (b) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form: (a) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (b) confirms that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. If our Common Stock is or becomes subject to the “penny stock” rules, it may be more difficult for investors to dispose of our Common Stock and cause a decline in the market value of our Common Stock.

 

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

 

BECAUSE WE DO NOT INTEND TO PAY ANY CASH DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK, OUR STOCKHOLDERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECEIVE A RETURN ON THEIR SHARES UNLESS THEY SELL THEM.

 

We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. There is no assurance that stockholders will be able to sell shares when desired.

 

  22  
     

 

FUTURE SALES OF SHARES BY EXISTING CONTROLLING STOCKHOLDERS COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE, FURTHER, CERTAIN SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK ARE RESTRICTED FROM IMMEDIATE RESALE.

 

If our existing controlling stockholder sell, or indicate an intention to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the trading price of our common stock could decline. As of December 21 , 2017, we have 30,799,046 Class A Common Shares issued and outstanding. After the effectiveness of our Registration Statement, 20,000,000 shares of the 30,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, owned by our officer will no longer be restricted from immediate resale in the public market. If in the future, he decides to sell his shares or if it is perceived that they will be sold, to the extent permitted by the Rules 144 and 701 under the Securities Act, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

 

We have authorized and unissued shares OF CLASS A, B and C COMMON stock that may be issued in the future, which would dilute your ownership in the Company.

 

Our authorized capital stock currently consists of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. The Company’s shares structure currently consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 500,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, and 500,000,000 shares of Class C common stock. As of December 21 , 2017 there are approximately 30,799,046 shares of our Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding; 6,000,000 shares of our Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding; and 73,400,000 shares of our Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding. The Board of Directors has a great deal of discretion, in the future, to issue more shares in each Series, without shareholder approval. The issuance of more shares of any Series would dilute your ownership in the Company, which would mean your percent of ownership in the Company would decrease.

 

HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK HAVE A RISK OF POTENTIAL DILUTION IF WE ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK IN THE FUTURE.

 

Although our Board of Directors intends to utilize its reasonable business judgment to fulfill its fiduciary obligations to our then existing stockholders in connection with any future issuance of our common stock, the future issuance of additional shares of our common stock would cause immediate, and potentially substantial, dilution to the net tangible book value of those shares of common stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to such transaction. Any future decrease in the net tangible book value of our issued and outstanding shares could have a material effect on the market value of the shares.

 

  23  
     

 

THE PRICE OF OUR CLASS C COMMON STOCK OFFERED IN THE OFFERING HAS BEEN ARBITRARILY ESTABLISHED BY OUR MANAGEMENT.

 

The offering price has been arbitrarily determined by our management and bears no relationship to assets, earnings, or any other valuation criteria. No assurance can be given that the shares offered hereby will have a market value or that they may be sold at this, or at any price. This is especially the case if an investment in our company results in a stock price as determined by the market less than our initial offering. In that case, shares in our company could be purchased in the open market below our initial offering price. This would result in a loss of money for any investors in this offering.

 

WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN MEETING THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR THE QUOTATION OF OUR CLASS C COMMON STOCK ON THE OTC-BULLETIN BOARD.

 

After this Registration Statement becomes effective, we plan to identify a market maker to list our Class C common stock on the OTC-Bulletin Board. Based on the small size of our Company and our minimal operations, we may have difficulty in meeting the qualifications for trading our Class C common stock on the OTC-Bulletin Board and in finding a market maker willing to list quotations for our shares or sponsor our Company for listing. There are no assurances that our Company’s Class C common stock will ever be quoted on the OTC-Bulletin Board.

 

LOW-PRICED STOCKS MAY AFFECT THE RESELL OF OUR SHARES.

 

Penny Stock Regulation Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “Penny Stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risk associated with the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock; the broker-dealer must make a written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. When the Registration Statement becomes effective and the Company’s securities become registered, the stock will likely have a trading price of less than $5.00 per share and will not be traded on any exchanges. Therefore, the Company’s stock will become subject to the penny stock rules and investors may find it more difficult to sell their securities, should they desire to do so.

 

The offer and sale of Common Shares to the former NOVA shareholders may be deemed to have violated federal securities laws, and, as a result, those shareholders may have the right to rescind their original purchase of those securities.

 

The offer and sale of the 25,000,000 Class C Common Shares for the acquisition of Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd. may have been in violation of the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and the interpretations of the SEC. If a violation of the Section 5 of the Securities Act did in fact occur, anyone who acquired Class C Common Shares at a price based on an evaluation of $0.20 per share would have a right to rescind the purchase. The Securities Act generally requires that any claim brought for a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act be brought within one year of the violation. If all the shareholders who acquired Class C Common Shares for their exchange in the ownership of Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd. demanded rescission within that one-year period, we would be obligated to repay approximately $5,000,000.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The selling stockholders are selling shares of Common Stock covered by this Prospectus for their own account. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares. We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling stockholders.

 

DILUTION

 

The Common Stock to be sold by the selling stockholders is Common Stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

The offering of the Class A Common stock by the selling shareholders is at a fixed price of $3.70 per share and the Class C Common Stock by the selling shareholders is at a fixed price of $0.20 per share for the entire duration of the offering. The price of the Class A Common shares was established on basis of the average of the high and low prices of the Common Stock on the OTC-QB Bulletin Board on May 9, 2017 within five business days prior to our original Registration Statement filing. The Class C Common shares are not traded on any market. The offering price bears no relationship whatsoever to our business plan, the price paid for our shares by our CEO, our assets, earnings, book value or any other criteria of value. The price for the Class C common shares was arbitrarily determined to establish a price for the stock. The offering price of the Class C Common shares should not be regarded as an indicator of the market price, if any, of the Class C common stock that may develop in a trading market after this offering, which is likely to fluctuate.

We did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in connection with this transaction. Prior to the transaction, all of the NOVA shareholders were sent a notice that provided the type of information normally provided in a prospectus. The NOVA shareholders were afforded access to our management in connection with this transaction.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling shareholders are underwriters as defined under the Securities Act of 1933. The offering by the Class A Common stock is at a fixed price of $3.70 per share and the Class C Common Shares selling shareholders is at a fixed price of $0.20 per share for the entire duration of the offering.

 

Although our Class A Common Stock is listed on the OTC-QB, there has been very little trading activity. Our Class C Common Stock is not listed on any exchange. If and when a market develops for our Common Stock, the shares may be sold or distributed from time-to-time by the selling stockholders directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers or dealers who act solely as agents, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices, which may be changed. At such time, the distribution of the shares may be effected in one or more of the following methods:

 

  ordinary brokers transactions, which may include long or short sales,
     
  transactions involving cross or block trades on any securities or market where our common stock is trading,
     
  through direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents,
     
  through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange listed of otherwise), or
     
  any combination of the foregoing.

 

Brokers, dealers, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions). Neither the selling stockholders nor we can presently estimate the amount of such compensation. We know of no existing arrangements between the selling stockholders and any other stockholder, broker, dealer or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of the selling stockholders pursuant to this Prospectus. We have agreed to bear the expenses of the registration of the Common Stock.

 

  35  
     

 

PENNY STOCK RULES

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” as such term is defined by Rule 15g-9. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

 

The Common Stock offered by this Prospectus constitutes penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act. The Common Stock will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares of Common Stock in our Company will be subject to the penny stock rules.

 

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which: (i) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (ii) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities’ laws; (iii) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (iv) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (v) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (vi) contains such other information and is in such form as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide to the customer, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, (i) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (ii) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (iii) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (iv) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

BLUE SKY RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE

 

When a selling stockholder wants to sell shares of our Common Stock under the Prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, the selling stockholder will also need to comply with state securities laws, also known as “blue sky laws,” with regard to secondary sales. All States offer a variety of exemptions from registration of secondary sales. The broker for a selling stockholder will be able to advise the stockholder as to which states have an exemption for secondary sales of our Common Stock.

 

Any person who purchases shares of our Common Stock from a selling stockholder pursuant to this Prospectus and who subsequently wishes to resell such shares will also have to comply with blue sky laws regarding secondary sales.

 

When this Prospectus becomes effective, a selling stockholder will indicate in which state(s) he or she wishes to sell the shares, and such seller’s broker will be able to identify whether the stockholder will need to register in that state or may rely on an exemption from registration.

 

EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

 

We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the offering and sale to the public of the shares being registered other than any commissions and discounts of underwriters, dealers or agents and any transfer taxes, which shall be borne by the selling security holder. The expenses which we are paying are set forth in the following table.

*Estimated Expenses

 

Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. The selling stockholder is advised to ensure that any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents effecting transactions on behalf of the selling stockholder are registered to sell securities in all fifty states. In addition, in certain states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and we have complied with them. The selling stockholder and any brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of common stock are underwriters, and any profit on the sale of common stock by them and any discounts, concessions or commissions received by those underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be considered underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

  37  
     

 

In accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, neither we nor the selling stockholder may bid for, purchase or attempt to induce any person to bid for or purchase, any of our common stock while we or they are selling stock in this offering. Neither we nor any of the selling stockholder intends to engage in any passive market making or undertake any stabilizing activity for our common stock. The selling stockholder will not engage in any short selling of our securities. Further, under the rules and regulations of FINRA any broker-dealer may not receive discounts, concessions, or commissions in excess of 8% in connection with the sale of any securities registered hereunder.

INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

ORGANIZATION WITHIN THE LAST FIVE YEARS

 

The Company was organized August 26, 2010 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as JA Energy. The Company was incorporated as a subsidiary of Reshoot Production Company, a Nevada corporation and became a fully reporting Company on January 5, 2011. Reshoot Production Company was incorporated October 31, 2007, and, at the time of spin off Reshoot Production Company was listed on the Over-the- Counter Bulletin Board. On November 21, 2016, the Company reincorporated in Delaware under the name UBI Blockchain Internet LTD.

 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Future sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. The shares of our common stock offered may be resold without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except that any shares purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined under the Securities Act, may generally only be sold in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

 

Rule 144

 

When the Company became fully reporting, it originally registered 65,846,667 shares (SEC File number: 333-169485) as a dividend spin-out to all of the forty-five (45) shareholders of Reshoot Production Company and the Company subsequently registered 6,000,000 shares (SEC File number; 333-179516) to four (4) foreign investors. The Company also issued unregistered 5,145,682 shares since its inception and returned to Treasury for cancellation 33,583,149 shares. This equates to 43,409,200 shares. On February 9, 2016, the Company decreased its issued and outstanding shares 1 for 200. After the reverse split there were 217,046 shares issued and outstanding. On or about October 3, 2106, the Company issued issue 30,000,000 unregistered restricted Class A Common Stock, 6,000,000 unregistered restricted Class B Voting Common Stock, and 40,000,000 unregistered restricted Class C Common Stock in exchange for $200,000. On April 3, 2005 the Company issued 8,400,000 unregistered restricted Class C non voting common shares, to 44 new shareholders for consulting services. On May 1, 2017, the Company issued 500,000 unregistered restricted Class A common shares to a independent consultant. As of May 16, 2017, the Company agreed to issue 25,000,000 unregistered restricted Class C common stock for 100% acquisition of Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd. And, on October 2, 2017, the Company issued 82,000 unregistered restricted Class A stock in exchange for legal services.

 

With the exception of 217,046 Class A Common Stock, all of our shares are “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and may only be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, if available. During the time that we were a “shell company,” holders of our restricted securities were not be able to rely on Rule 144 in connection with the sale of those restricted securities. Since only our Class A Common stock is quoted on the OTC-QB, the holders of Class A Common stock have the ability to liquidate their stock, in the open market, once the restricted legend is removed. There are no assurances than an active market will develop for our shares, which would make the Class A Common shares difficult to sell. Since our Class B and Class C Common stock are not quoted any exchange, holders of Class B and C Common stock may find their stock to be very illiquid. Any investment in our Class B and C Common stock may be highly illiquid and without a market value.

 

  40  
     

 

In general, Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act, provides:

 

If the issuer of the securities is, and has been for a period of at least 90 days immediately before the sale, subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, a minimum of six months must elapse between the later of the date of the acquisition of the securities from the issuer, or from an affiliate of the issuer, and any resale of such securities in reliance on this section for the account of either the acquirer or any subsequent holder of those securities.

 

If the issuer of the securities is not, or has not been for a period of at least 90 days immediately before the sale, subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, a minimum of one year must elapse between the later of the date of the acquisition of the securities from the issuer, or from an affiliate of the issuer, and any resale of such securities in reliance on this section for the account of either the acquirer or any subsequent holder of those securities.

 

Except as provided in Rule 144, the amount of securities sold for the account of an affiliate of the issuer in reliance upon this section shall be determined as follows: If any securities are sold for the account of an affiliate of the issuer, regardless of whether those securities are restricted, the amount of securities sold, together with all sales of securities of the same class sold for the account of such person within the preceding three months, shall not exceed the greatest of: (A) one percent of the shares or other units of the class outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the issuer, or (B) the average weekly reported volume of trading in such securities on all national securities exchanges and/or reported through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of notice required by paragraph (h) of Rule 144, or if no such notice is required the date of receipt of the order to execute the transaction by the broker or the date of execution of the transaction directly with a market maker, or (C) the average weekly volume of trading in such securities reported pursuant to an effective transaction reporting plan or an effective national market system plan during the four-week period specified in paragraph (e)(1)(ii) of Rule 144.

 

Special provisions for “Shell Companies”

 

The provisions of Rule 144 are not available for the resale of securities initially issued by a “shell company” which is defined as an issuer, other than a business combination related shell company, as defined in Rule 405, or an asset-backed issuer, as defined in Item 1101(b) of Regulation AB, that has no or nominal operations; and either no or nominal assets; assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets; or an issuer that has been at any time previously an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144.

 

  41  
     

 

Another important factor to be considered while being deemed a “shell company” is that we could not file registration statements under Section 5 of the Securities Act using a Form S-8, a short form of registration to register securities issued to employees and consultants under an employee benefit plan.

 

There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any financing if or when it is needed on terms we deem acceptable due to being deemed a “shell company.” Any additional financing may not be available to us, or if available, may not be on terms favorable to us due to being deemed a “shell company.”

 

Notwithstanding paragraph (i)(1) of Rule 144, if the issuer of the securities previously had been an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) but has ceased to be an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i); is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports, and has filed current “Form 10 information” with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i), then those securities may be sold subject to the requirements of Rule 144 after one year has elapsed from the date that the issuer filed “Form 10 information” with the SEC.

 

The term “Form 10 information” means the information that is required by SEC Form 10, to register under the Exchange Act each class of securities being sold under Rule 144. The Form 10 information is deemed filed when the initial filing is made with the SEC.

 

In order for Rule 144 to be available, UBI Blockchain Internet must have certain information publicly available. We plan to publish information necessary to permit transfer of shares of our common stock in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act, in as much as we have filed the registration statement with respect to this prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Company History

 

The Company was organized August 26, 2010 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as JA Energy. The Company was incorporated as a subsidiary of Reshoot Production Company, a Nevada corporation. Reshoot Production Company was incorporated October 31, 2007, and, at the time of spin off was listed on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.

 

From August 2010 to May 2014 the Company was in the business of designing a suite of modular, self-contained, fully automated, climate controlled units for distributed production of energy. While some of these products were proven to be technologically viable, none were ever developed to the point where they were ready for introduction to the marketplace.

 

On or about September 30, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the formation of a new company called Peak Energy Holdings, a Nevada corporation, where each shareholder in the Company received one share of common of Peak Energy Holdings for each share of common stock owned in the Company and one share of preferred stock of Peak Energy for each share of preferred share owned in the Company. As part of the transaction, the Company spun-off all of its assets and liabilities into Peak Energy. Further, the spin-off subsidiary operated as an independent entity separate entity from the Company with new management operating the current core business of Peak Energy for the benefit of the original stockholders. The effect of this action allowed the Company to explore new business opportunities without the burden of the assets and liabilities on the corporate books.

 

On November 21, 2016, the Company changed its corporate name to UBI Blockchain Internet, LTD, and changed the state of incorporation from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware pursuant to a plan of conversion in connection with which the Company adopted a new certificate of incorporation under the laws of the State of Delaware.

 

On May 16, 2017, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd., a private Shenzhen Chinese corporation in exchange for 25,000,000 unregistered restricted Class C common shares. In April, 2017 Shenzhen Nova E-commerce began its operations of an online store in China selling a wide range of products including maternal and infant products, cosmetics, wine, household goods, digital and luxury products.

 

UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd. business encompasses the research and application of blockchain technology with a focus on the Internet of things covering areas of food, drugs and healthcare.

Overview

 

UBI’s business encompasses the research and application of blockchain technology with a focus on the Internet of Things (“IoT”) covering areas of food and drugs, healthcare, just to name a few. The Company will leverage the stock market to build a new business technology platform, specialized in the safety and freshness keeping of food and drugs within the context of micro and macro environment of the human life. The Company has no revenues, has yet to develop any products for sale and has no customers at this time.

 

UBI plans to set up teams, that are dedicated to blockchain application and research, application of the internet of things, IT and data analytics in order to achieve its business goals.

 

An Internet of Things is defined as: the internetworking of physical devices, vehicles (also referred to as “connected devices” and “smart devices”), buildings, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity that enable these objects to collect and exchange data. The IoT allows objects to be sensed and/or controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit. Blockchain, originally block chain, is defined as : a distributed database that maintains a continuously-growing list of ordered records called blocks . Each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block. By design, blockchains are resistant to modification of the data - once recorded, the data in a block cannot be altered retroactively. The Company plans to develop and specialize in the design, development, promotion and sales of blockchain technology and internet of things.

Industry Trends

 

Recent advances in streamlining video, monitoring sensors, high-speed broadband internet, introducing wireless standards (such as Bluetooth low-power) and other technologies have brought about the emergence of virtual transactions and investment plans that individuals and businesses can base on their spending habits to measure data that monitoring equipment and applications to receive real-time feedback and to fit a wide range of personal and corporate preferences for reliability at home.

 

Blockchain techniques have shown considerable adaptability in recent years, as various market sectors have sought to find ways of incorporating capabilities into their operations. While most of the focus has so far been on financial services industry, this has begun to change. For example, the use of blockchain technology to support digital electronic payments to counter counterfeit drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. The adaptability of blockchain to a large number of applications has been one of the driving forces of the technology’s growing interest in past few years. As solution for organization and ledger needs, the most recent market for blockchain technology is pharmaceutical industry.

 

The use blockchain technology and internet of things is being employed to address universal healthcare industry regarding food and drug safety and labor relations management. At present, management believes that there exists confusion of Chinese medicine industry including fake drugs, bad medicine serious phenomenon, no regulated production, no guaranteed efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine. The excessive use of antibiotics, poison capsules incidents, vaccine cases ginkgo leaf, licorice tablets and other major drug cases, have seriously affected people’s physical and mental health. Therefore, food and drug safety relates to vital interests of millions of people’s social problems. From current safety issues of food and drug, we see scientific and exact drug management issues.

 

Management believes that the blockchain technology and internet of things promote industrial information and emergence of possible technological solutions. Through integration of blockchain technology for the core of internet of things to establish a seamless industrial chain so as to achieve food and drug safety control and enterprise relations management. Internet of Things is the extension and continuation of internet. IoT can increase the ubiquity of the internet by integrating every object for interaction via radio frequency identification (RFID) devices, infrared sensors, global positioning systems, laser scanners and other information sensing equipment, which leads to a highly distributed network of devices communicating with human beings as well as other devices. IoT is opening opportunities for a large number of novel applications that promise to improve quality of lives. In recent years, IoT has connected with blockchain, exchange and communication for intelligent identification, location, tracking, monitoring and management of a network. This technology is still in its infancy.

A universal healthcare system covers all citizens seeking to achieve efficiencies by integrating the basic functions of healthcare delivery, health insurance, distribution of healthy food and drug safety and labor relations management. Based on the full integration of internet of things with blockchain technology, this technology can change old systems. Blockchain technology is a distributed database that maintains a continuously-growing list of records called blocks. Each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block. The data in a block cannot be altered retrospectively. Blockchain has characteristics such as decentrality, openness and transparency, autonomy, security of information that cannot be tampered with, and anonymity, these features can strengthen solution to drug and food safety issues, as well as getting more meaningful solution to enterprise labor relations management.

 

Blockchain technology-based applications

 

Management plans to focus its business in the integrated wellness industry, which providing procedures for safety and effectiveness in food and drugs, but also preventing counterfeit or fake food and drugs. With the advancement of the blockchain technology, we can trace a food or drug product all the way up to its original source within the context of the internet of things.

 

We are in the early stages of blockchain technology, which can store decentralized and distributed software ledger with complete transaction history. Blockchain technology has a wide range of potential applications, in addition to financial, real estate, back office systems and stock trading applications. Blockchain is a distributed ledger agreement that allows projects or transactions to be transparently registered and is first developed for use in a variety of industries to offer a wide range of services including banking, stock trading, real estate and even global diamond sales. More and more financial giants join blockchain technology applications and research and development, including IBM, Microsoft, Intel, Blockstream and Thompson Reuters, to further accelerate blockchain technology as a maturity and development system. Management believes the investments in the field of blockchain are growing. Due to maturity and safety of blockchain technology, it can play a role in many fields, and management believes its application field and development potential offer a growth opportunity for the Company.

 

The five features of blockchain include: de-centralization, openness, autonomy, non-tampering and anonymity. These features make blockchain an advantage in science and finance. Blockchain technology is a decentralized, distributed ledger that allows each transaction to be recorded and verified by network, which means that they do not need a central regulator such as a bank or financial institution. Transactions are also anonymous and theoretically real-time, although recent network over-saturation has led to this problem. The block-based distributed accounting technology, combined with its artificial intelligence and internet of things technologies, makes it possible for billions of smart technologies to connect to internet for greater security, allowing virtual time travel and allowing regulators to return to the point at which the problem occurred.

One of potential application of this technology is the creation of registers based on blockchain of IoT devices, and the use of artificial intelligence programs to perform automated intelligent diagnostics and more advanced functions, which can ultimately lead engineers and regulators to virtualize clock backwards. At the same time, blockchain technology can reduce audit costs; reduce distrust of central node, so that flow of financial assets is more transparent and convenient. In fact, current blockchain technology is indeed application of digital electronic payments to “blockchain +” transition extension from financial sector gradually to IoT and other non-financial areas which will trigger more and greater industrial restructuring and revolution. It is our time to enter real power blockchain technology.

 

The central concept and future development of blockchain are trends of things fit, leading gradual self-government of things. Blockchain technology is a good solution: infrastructure investment, high maintenance costs and data security issues. Blockchain technology support IoT which is an extension and more advanced stage of internet. Blockchain technology research and application will make IoT networking shine. Blockchain’s point-to-point communication platform gives a subtle solution. Blockchain technology creates a shared, distributed, digital book between network nodes to record transactions, rather than storing them on a central server. Thus eliminating the need for central verification. It provides a way to create a consensus network without having trust a single node, and data store does not need to be stored in a central server, but by sharing it to all nodes in the network.

 

Internet of Things (IoT) is about creating digital representations of real-world objects. It is a phenomenon that draws on rapid developments within IT, ICT and telecommunications to spark insights and to help companies create entirely new types of services and business areas. Management believes that the Internet of Things will be the next technology to promote the rapid development of the world’s important productive forces.

 

Health Care Business Focus

 

Management believes that the global IoT in healthcare market is growing at a significant growth rate, due to increasing demand for advanced healthcare information system, and growing prevalence of chronic and lifestyle associated diseases.

 

The IoT applications in healthcare, such as telemedicine, medication management, clinical operations and workflow management, inpatient monitoring, helps in compiling services related to diagnosis, treatment, care, and rehabilitation. They improve communication between patients and healthcare providers, in order to reduce medication errors, and provide better coordinated care.

Our Strategy

 

Our growth strategy is substantially dependent upon our ability to market our product successfully to prospective clients in the target markets, which shall initially be China, Europe and the United States. This requires that we heavily rely upon our development and marketing partners in the target markets. Failure to select the right development and marketing partners in the target markets and other target markets will significantly delay or prohibit our ability to develop the products and services, market the products and gain market acceptance. Our products and services may not achieve significant acceptance. Such acceptance, if achieved, may not be sustained for any significant period of time. Failure of our services to achieve or sustain market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and the results of our operations.

 

It is our management’s strategy is to make UBI the premier online investment and communication platform in key markets in China, and later on we may expand into Europe and North America. There are no assurances that management will be able to successfully execute this strategy. In an effort to achieve this goal, we intend to do the following:

We plan to develop commercially applicable blockchain based payment and other functions, such as product tracking. We aim at satisfaction of user experience, covering the consumption after sales.

 

Create brand awareness and drive sales of our products and services in key markets

 

We intend to target our marketing efforts to create global awareness of our brand and drive sales of our products and services in the key markets of China.

 

Employ professional investment professionals, academics, university professors and communication professionals

 

We plan to employ investment professionals, academics, university professors and communication professionals from around the world to develop technologies applications to human beings.

 

Coordinate with strategic partners in each of the target markets for marketing and distribution

 

We believe that international markets represent a significant growth opportunity for us and we intend to expand sales of our intended products and services globally through selected retailers and strategic partnerships. We plan to work with key partners in the target markets to provide marketing and distribution expertise and assistance. Although it may be challenging to gain market acceptance in these markets, we believe the assistance of such experts will expedite the process.

 

49  

 

 

Competitive Strengths

 

We believe that the following strengths position us to build our business model:

 

A. Building a Creative Commercial Platform through Independent Design and Development

 

We plan to make an integrated platform that incorporates the blockchain technology, internet of things, and a stock market. This platform when built, will support blockchain based payment, the convenience of internet of things, with the speed, safety, and convenience not yet experienced. We plan to establish a brand name of “Global UBI” for our intended products and services.

 

B. Management Believes We Have Good Relations in China’s Healthcare Industry

 

In China, we believe that our management has good relations in the field of integrated health industry for scientific research and development, raw material production base and other industrial chains. Our management is also familiar with the international pharmaceutical market and the food market. We believe that technology is the top productive force. The effective combination of blockchain technology and Internet of Things technology which exclude all possible human factors, its centralization, transparency and chain cannot be tampered with, traceability, etc. can solve the drug and food safety issues.

 

Target Market

 

At present, fake drugs are common in China, as there exists little regulation of production, and no guaranteed efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine. There has been an excessive use of antibiotics, poison capsules incidents, vaccine cases ginkgo leaf, licorice tablets and other major drug cases, seriously affecting people’s physical and mental health. Therefore, food and drug safety is related to the vital interests of millions of people in China.

 

Sources of Income and Pricing

 

We plan to use application of information technology (IT), blockchain technology and IoT technology that permeate virtually all aspects of corporate and social activity, effective combination of food and drugs safety and management of labor relations. The products and services enabled by it have had a major impact to the healthcare industry. As we look to the future, emerging technologies raise new trend in security, law enforcement, privacy, safety in food and drug of healthcare industry.

Sales and Marketing

 

The Company plans to place an emphasis on social media for the marketing and advancement of blockchian, internet of things, and technological innovation platform as well as the traditional health application, food and drug production process chain for more transparent transactions. The Company plans to implement original sources of procurement advantages, and preferred overseas products. For the domestic high-end consumers, we provide more efficient, convenient and affordable imports of quality goods.

 

Management believes Chinese consumers are more likely to consider buying a product if they see it mentioned on a social-media site and more likely to purchase a product or service if a friend or acquaintance recommends it on a social-media site.

 

Chinese consumers rely heavily upon peer-to-peer recommendations over general mass advertising. In general, the Chinese populace is skeptical of information from news sources and advertising and rely more on word-of-mouth from friends, family, and key opinion leaders, many of whom share information on social media.

 

While messaging and sharing photos is as popular in China as in other regions, one aspect of usage in the country stands out: social media has a greater influence on purchasing decisions for consumers in China than for those anywhere else in the world. Due to the widespread use of social media in China, the Company will focus its marketing efforts on this medium. The Company will be present with its own social media site on the largest Chinese social media platforms. Sale of our intended products and services will take place on the portal. With regards to North America and European Market, we anticipate employing a similar strategy. Our most important profit and revenue will come from our development of drugs, food safety software, and system platform technology to promote sales and transfer technology. These software technologies and platform technologies will be widely used in health industry businesses and regulatory agencies.

Foreign Currency Exchange

 

The principal regulation governing foreign currency exchange in China is the Foreign Currency Administration Rules (1996), as amended (2008). Under these Rules, RMB is freely convertible for current account items, such as trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not for capital account items, such as direct investment, loan or investment in securities outside China unless the prior approval of, and/or registration with, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the People’s Republic of China, or SAFE, or its local counterparts (as the case may be) is obtained.

 

Pursuant to the Foreign Currency Administration Rules, foreign invested enterprises, or FIEs, in China may purchase foreign currency without the approval of SAFE for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions by providing commercial documents evidencing these transactions. They may also retain foreign exchange (subject to a cap approved by SAFE) to satisfy foreign exchange liabilities or to pay dividends. In addition, if a foreign company acquires a subsidiary in China, the acquired company will also become an FIE. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate the ability of FIEs to purchase and retain foreign currencies in the future. In addition, foreign exchange transactions for direct investment, loan and investment in securities outside China are still subject to limitations and require approvals from, and/or registration with, SAFE.

In the ordinary course of our business, we expect that from time-to-time we will be involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

 

Disclaimer Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included in this Form S-1. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form S-1, particularly in the Section titled Risk Factors.

 

Although the forward-looking statements in this Registration Statement reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

 

Plan of Operation

 

As of the date of this Registration Statement, we have serious concerns as to whether we have, and will have, sufficient cash flow to continue to operate for the next twelve months if we are not successful in developing blockchain technology with a focus on the Internet of things covering areas of food, drugs and healthcare. We will apply any proceeds from future revenues to help cover our expenditures. Unless sufficient revenues are recognized, we anticipate that our projected expenditures will most likely exceed any proceeds from those revenues over the next twelve months, which will require that we obtain new financing in order for us to pursue our current plan of operations. We plan to look for both public and private sources of financing. There can be no assurance, however, that we can obtain sufficient capital on acceptable terms, if at all. If we do not achieve the necessary financing, then we will not be able to proceed with our planned activities, which would materially adversely affect our financial condition, business prospects and results of operations.

 

56  

 

 

We anticipate generating losses and therefore we may be unable to continue operations in the future. We plan to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. We would have to issue equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any of additional sales of our equity securities or other financing to fund our business operations. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.

 

Explanatory Paragraph in Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Report

 

Our independent accountants have included a paragraph in their most recent report, in our audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2017, regarding concerns about our ability to continue as going concern. We have further disclosed in our notes to the financial statements that we are dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of our business opportunities, and that there are no assurances that we will be able to meet our financial obligations in the future.

Expenses

 

Total operating expenses increased $1,814,000 from $13,079 in 2016 to $1,827,079 in 2017. Total stock-based compensation increased $1,366,667 in 2017 from $0 in 2016. Total cash based employee compensation increased $270,449 in 2017 from $0 in 2016. Total cash based professional and consulting fees increased $123,677 in 2017 from $0 in 2016. Other general and administrative expenses increased $53,207 from $13,079 in 2016 to $66,286 in 2017.

 

The increase in operating expenses resulted from the Company’s engagement in the blockchain internet business which commenced September of 2016 and the acquisition of Nova which was completed in August 2017. To execute its development strategy, the Company hired professional staff and consultants commenced during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017. Consequently, stock-based compensation, wages, professional fees, consulting fees and other general and administrative expenses increased compared to the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016.

 

The Company had other income - net of $37,912 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2017, which resulted from the gain on settlement of liabilities of $47,575 offset by the accrued interest-related party expense of $9,663.

 

Net loss increased $1,776,088 from a net loss of $13,079 in 2016 to a net loss of $1,789,167 in 2017. The increase resulted from the Company’s engagement in the blockchain internet business which commenced September of 2016 and the acquisition of Nova which was completed in August 2017 as explained above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of August 31, 2017, the Company had total assets of $1,918,724 consisting of office equipment of $17,950, website development costs of $92,035, prepaid stock-based salaries and consulting fees of $1,793,333, and cash of $15,406 and total liabilities of $585,506. Our financial statements indicated that there was substantial doubt about the Company continuing as a going concern. Based on our current burn rate, we will run out of funds immediately without additional capital.

 

The Company has not generated any income as of August 31, 2017. The working capital was provided by a major shareholder of the Company. The Company has limited financial resources available, which has had an adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity, activities and operations. These limitations have adversely affected the Company’s ability to obtain certain projects and pursue additional business. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. In order for the Company to remain a Going Concern it will need to find additional capital. Additional working capital may be sought through additional debt or equity private placements, additional notes payable to banks or related parties (officers, directors or stockholders), or from other available funding sources at market rates of interest, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors, including the nature and prospects of any business to be acquired and the economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing is sought. No assurances can be given that any necessary financing can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company, or at all.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of UBI Blockchain Internet, Ltd. (formerly JA Energy)

 

I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of UBI Blockchain Internet, Ltd. (formerly JA Energy) (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2017 and 2016 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

 

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

 

In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of UBI Blockchain Internet, Ltd. (formerly JA Energy) as of August 31, 2017 and 2016 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s present financial situation raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For The Years Ended August 31, 2017 and 2016

 

NOTE 1 – ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

The Company was organized August 26, 2010 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as JA Energy. The Company was incorporated as a subsidiary of Reshoot Production Company, a Nevada corporation. Reshoot Production Company was incorporated October 31, 2007, and, at the time of spin off was listed on the Over-the- Counter Bulletin Board. On November 21, 2016 the Company reincorporated in Delaware under the name UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd.

 

On September 30, 2014, the Board of Directors passed a resolution to form a new company called Peak Energy Holdings (Peak) with each shareholder in the Company receiving one share of common of Peak for each share of common stock in the Company and one share of preferred stock of Peak for each share of preferred stock of the Company.

 

On November 9, 2014, JA Energy (the “Company”) entered into an Irrevocable Asset and Liability Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”). The Agreement dealt with the dividend spin-off of JA Energy’s wholly owned subsidiary, Peak Energy Holdings. At the JA Energy annual shareholder meeting, held on September 30, 2014, the shareholders of the Company approved the transfer of all of the assets and liabilities of the Parent into a wholly owned subsidiary. The subsidiary had the same characteristics and number of authorized and issued shares as the Parent, whereby all Preferred and Common shareholders in the Parent received a pro-rata stock dividend in the subsidiary that is equal to the number of shares they owned in the Parent on a one-for-one (1:1) basis. The major shareholders of the Company entered into a separate agreement with regards to the dividend spin-off. They agreed to and put into effect the following points upon the dividend spin-off of the Peak Energy Holdings from JA Energy:

 

F- 6

 

 

 

  Mr. James Lusk (the largest debtor of JA Energy) transferred all assets and liabilities, as of March 31, 2014, from JA Energy to the Subsidiary to the extent legally assignable.

 

  Two of the major shareholders in JA Energy transferred all ownership of their Preferred and Common stock held in the subsidiary to Mr. James Lusk.
     
  Mr. James Lusk transferred all of the common stock ownership he owned and controlled in JA Energy to the major shareholders.
     
  Mr. James Lusk provided a notarized signed letter addressed to the Company and auditor that he agreed to transfer all assets and liabilities, as of March 31, 2014, from the Parent to the Subsidiary to the extent legally assignable.
     
  JA Energy warranted that any new liabilities incurred on the books of JA Energy after April 1, 2014 would not be transferred to the subsidiary.

 

  JA Energy represented and warranted that there were no liabilities, actual or contingent, created in the subsidiary. Prior to the effective time of the transfer, the subsidiary would have no assets nor liabilities.
     
  JA Energy warranted that since April 1, 2014, with the exception of the preferred voting shares, no other shares were issued, awarded or pledged to be issued. The number of common shares issued and outstanding in JA Energy at March 31, 2014 were the same number of the shares issued at the date of transfer.
     
  Upon the completion of the transfer of assets and liabilities, shares were exchanged and the subsidiary was divested from JA Energy and now operates independent as a separate entity of JA Energy with its own management;
     
  Mr. James Lusk took control of Peak Energy Holdings, independent of JA Energy.
     
  All Parties indemnified and held harmless the other Parties from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, resulting or arising from these transactions.

 

The Agreement did not affect any other shareholders in the Company who maintained their share ownership of JA Energy, and have pro-rata ownership in Peak Energy Holdings following the dividend spin-off.

 

On September 15, 2016, the Company, with the approval of the Board of Directors agreed to issue 30,000,000 shares of unregistered restricted Class A Common Stock, 6,000,000 shares of unregistered restricted Class B Voting Common Stock, which carries a voting weight equal to ten (10) Common Shares, and 40,000,000 shares of unregistered restricted Class C Common Stock to UBI Blockchain Internet, LTD (“UBI Hong Kong”), a Hong Kong company, or assigns in exchange for $200,000. On September 26, 2016, pursuant to NRS 78.1955, the Board of Directors approved the filing of a Certificate of Designation with the Nevada Secretary of State to designate Class A, B and C common shares, par value $0.001. Concurrently with the filing of this Certificate of Designation, all Common Stock issued and outstanding became Class A Common Stock. Class B Common Stock carries a voting weight equal to ten (10) Common Shares. The Class B shares can be converted into fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares, on a one-to-one basis, at the option of the holder at any time upon written notice to the Company and its authorized transfer agent. Class C Common Stock has no voting rights. Upon the conversion or other exchange of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into or for shares of Class A Common Stock, all shares of Class C Common Stock shall be automatically, without further action by any holder thereof, converted into an identical number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock on the date fixed therefore by the Board of Directors that is no less than sixty-one days and no more than one hundred and eighty days following such conversion or exchange.

 

On October 7, 2016, the 30,000,000 Class A shares and 6,000,000 Class B shares were issued. On November 21, 2016, the Company reincorporated in Delaware under the name UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd. and increased the number of authorized shares from 75,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares consisting of 130,000,000 authorized shares of Class A Common Stock, 6,000,000 authorized shares of Class B Common Stock and 64,000,000 authorized shares of Class C Common Stock. On March 1, 2017, the 40,000,000 shares of Class C common stock were issued. All of the preceding shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and were issued under Regulation S to one (1) foreign entity who attested it is an accredited investor who is not a citizen or a resident of the USA.

 

F- 7

 

 

On January 3, 2017, the Company appointed four new directors, accepted the resignations of its two former directors and appointed Tony Liu (who controls UBI Hong Kong) as Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

 

Commencing in the three months ended February 28, 2017, the Company started research activities in Hong Kong relating to “blockchain” technology planned to be provided for future customers.

 

On March 1, 2017, the Company issued 40,000,000 shares of Class C common stock to our chief executive officer Tony Liu pursuant to the September 15, 2016 agreement (see above).

 

On April 3, 2017, the Company issued a total of 8.400,000 shares of Class C common stock to a total of 45 contractor employees and nonemployees (see Note 6).

 

On May 1, 2017, the Company issued 500,000 restricted shares of Class A common stock to an independent consultant for consulting services to be performed for the Company (see Note 6).

 

On May 24, 2017, the Company increased the number of authorized common shares from 200,000,000 shares to 2,000,000,000 shares (1,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 500,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, and 500,000,000 shares of Class C common stock).

 

On August 29, 2017, upon the approval of the acquisition by the related PRC authorities, the Company issued a total of 25.000,000 shares of Class C common stock to shareholders of Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd. (“Nova”) in exchange for control of the business of Nova (see Notes 4 and 6).

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit since inception of $6,343,426. The Company has not generated any meaningful revenues to date, and its ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the successful completion of additional financing arrangements and its ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations. Management plans to raise equity capital to finance the operating and capital requirements of the Company. As described above, there was a change in control of the Company in October 2016.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The relevant accounting policies are listed below.

 

Basis of Accounting

 

The basis is United States generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiary Shenzhen Nova E-commerce, Ltd. (“Nova”) from the date of acquisition of Nova on August 29, 2017 (see Note 4). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

F- 8

 

 

Earnings per Share

 

The basic earnings (loss) per share of Class A, Class B and Class C common stock is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to Class A, Class B and Class C common shareholders by the weighted average number of Class A, Class B and Class C common shares issued and outstanding during the year. The diluted earnings (loss) per share of Class A, Class B and Class C common stock is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to Class A, Class B and Class C common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of Class A, Class B and Class C shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of Class A, Class B and Class C shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of Class A, Class B, and Class C shares adjusted as of the first of the year for any potentially dilutive debt or equity (none at August 31, 2017).

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

 

Website development costs

 

Website development costs are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Commencing in year ending August 31, 2018, website development costs will be amortized over an estimated economic life of 5 years.

 

 

As of August 31, 2107, the expected future amortization expense of website development costs is:

  

Year ended August 31,     Amount  
  2018     $ 18,407  
  2019       18,407  
  2020       18,407  
  2021       18,407
