PART I
Item 1. Business.
General
Winning Catering Group, Inc. (formerly known as LiquidValue Development Inc., the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 10, 2009. Our address is 4800 Montgomery Lane, Suite 210, Bethesda, MD, 20814. Our telephone number is 301-971-3940.
On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement with Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Alset Real Estate Holdings”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, the Company agreed to transfer its ownership of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset EHome Inc., the company that owns substantially all of what was previously the assets and liabilities of the Company, to Alset Real Estate Holdings.
On August 18, 2025, the Company completed the distribution of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to holders of the Company’s common stock as of August 15, 2025, in the form of a one-time special dividend (the “Distribution”).
The Distribution, having an aggregate carrying value of approximately $34.8 million as of August 15, 2025 constitutes substantially all of the Company’s net asset value. Shareholders received shares on a pro rata basis, based on the number of shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company became a “shell company” as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, pending the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement described below.
On May 30, 2025, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with SeD Intelligent Home Inc., LVD Merger Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; Winning Catering Management Limited (“Winning Group”); Winning Holdings Limited; and Pure Talent Group Limited. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, LVD Merger Corp. will merge with and into Winning Group, with Winning Group surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the merger, the Company will issue new shares of its common stock, following which Winning Holdings will own approximately 80% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
On December 29, 2017, the Company, SeD Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), Alset EHome Inc. (referred to herein as “Alset EHome”), a Delaware corporation, and SeD Intelligent Home Inc., a Delaware corporation entered into an Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the Merger Sub was merged with and into Alset EHome, with Alset EHome surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The closing of this transaction (the “Closing”) also took place on December 29, 2017. The Company’s business operations became those operations that Alset EHome was conducting.
With the completion of the Company’s acquisition of Alset EHome, we entered into the business of land development. While the Company owned real estate, the Company did not intend to be a REIT for federal tax purposes. Alset EHome’s Lakes at Black Oak project was a land sub-division development located north of Houston, Texas. The Lakes at Black Oak project initially consisted of 162 acres; in January of 2021, this project was expanded with the purchase of an approximately 6.3 acre tract of land. Alset EHome conducted its operations through wholly and partially owned subsidiaries. Alset EHome’s affiliates provided project and asset management via separate agreements with consultants.
The Company has one reportable segment, real estate, which includes its land development projects and rental business. The Company’s chief operating decision makers (the “CODMs”) are the Co-Chief Executive Officers, who review and assess the performance of the Company as a whole. The CODMs primarily use net income (loss) and operating income (loss) to evaluate performance and allocate resources, and these measures are prepared on the same basis as in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The CODMs use these measures in assessing ongoing operations and in the Company’s internal planning and forecasting processes. Segment expenses and other items are provided to the CODMs on the same basis as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the CODMs do not use information on segment assets in evaluating performance or allocating resources.
| 3 |
As of December 31, 2025, we had total assets of $5,912 and total liabilities of $0. As of December 31, 2024, we had total assets of $38,792,674 and total liabilities of $2,991,375.
Employees
At the present time, the Company has no full-time employees. As of December 31, 2024 the Company had six full-time employees. Much of our work is done by contractors retained for projects, and at the present time we have no part-time employees.
Compliance with Government Regulation
The development of our real estate projects required the Company to comply with federal, state and local environmental regulations. In connection with this compliance, our real estate acquisition and development projects required environmental studies. Through the date of the Distribution, the Company had spent approximately $71,431 on environmental studies and compliance. The Company did not incur any environmental study or compliance expenditures during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
At the present time, we believe that we have all of the material government approvals that we need to conduct our business as currently conducted. We are required to comply with government regulations and to make filings from time to time with various government entities. Such work is typically handled by outside contractors we retain.
Corporate Organization
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary, LVD Merger Corp.
Lakes at Black Oak
Alset EHome’s Lakes at Black Oak project is a land sub-division development located north of Houston, Texas. Our Lakes at Black Oak project initially consisted of 162 acres.
On January 13, 2021, 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. purchased an approximately 6.3 acre tract of land in Montgomery County, Texas.
On March 17, 2023, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd. entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Davidson Agreement”) with Davidson Homes, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company.

The sale of the first 94 lots closed on May 30, 2023. The sale of remaining lots closed on January 4, 2024.
On July 1, 2024, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd., closed the sale of 70 single-family detached residential lots comprising a section of a residential community in Lakes at Black Oak to Century Land Holdings of Texas, LLC.

On October 10, 2024 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd. closed the sale of 72 single-family detached residential lots comprising a section of a residential community Lakes at Black Oak to Century Land Holdings of Texas, LLC. The lots were sold at a fixed per-lot price, and the Seller also received a community enhancement fee for each lot sold.

On December 16, 2024, Alset EHome Inc. closed the sale of 63 single-family detached residential lots comprising a section of a residential community near Houston, Texas known as “Alset Villas” to Century Land Holdings of Texas, LLC. The lots were sold at a fixed per-lot price, and the Seller also received a community enhancement fee for each lot sold. The aggregate purchase price and community enhancement fees, minus certain expenses, equaled a combined total of approximately $3.8 million.

As of December 31, 2024 the Company sold all the lots available for sale.
Ballenger Run
In November 2015, we completed the $15.65 million acquisition of Ballenger Run, a 197-acre land sub-division development located in Frederick County, Maryland. The Ballenger Run project was nearly completed before the Distribution, as all lots have been sold and the Company was completing its final tasks related to the project.
Model Homes
In May 2023, the Company entered into a lease agreement for one of its model houses located in Montgomery County, Texas. The lease was terminated in February 2025.
On July 14, 2023, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd entered into a model home lease agreement with Davidson Homes, LLC (“Davidson”). On August 3, 2023, Black Oak entered into a development and construction agreement with Davidson to build a model house located in Montgomery County, Texas. On January 4, 2024, Black Oak paid $220,076 to Davidson as reimbursement for final construction cost and the contractor’s fee. The model home lease commenced on January 1, 2024, lease term is twenty-four (24) full months and annual base rent equals to twelve percent (12%) of the total of the final cost of construction costs and the contractor’s fee.
Additional Information
The Company is subject to the information requirements of the Exchange Act, and, in accordance therewith, files annual, quarterly, and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the Commission.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
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 report before making a decision to invest in our common stock. If any of the following risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. In those cases, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. As a “smaller reporting company”, the Company is not required to provide the information required by this item, but below are the risk factors the Company believes investors should consider before purchasing any of the Company’s securities.
Risks Related to Our Company
We must retain key personnel for the success of our business.
Our success is highly dependent on the skills and knowledge of our management team, including their knowledge of our projects and network of relationships. If we are unable to retain the members of such team, or adequate substitutes, this could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
| 5 |
If we fail to effectively manage our growth our future business results could be harmed and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.
As we proceed with the expansion of our operations, we expect to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to hire additional personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Members of our management may face competing demands relating to their time, and this may cause our operating results to suffer.
Fai H. Chan and Moe T. Chan, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and each a director of our Company, are involved in a number of projects other than our Company’s real estate business. Both have their primarily residences and business offices in Asia, and accordingly, there will be limits on how often they are able to visit the locations of our real estate projects. Similarly, our Co-Chief Financial Officers are both engaged in non-real estate activities. Among our directors and officers, only one of our Co-Chief Financial Officers, Ronald Wei, and one of our directors, Charles MacKenzie, resides and works in the United States.
Since some members of our board of directors are not residents of the United States, shareholders may not be able to enforce a U.S. judgment for claims brought against such directors.
Several members of our senior management team, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers, have their primary residences and business offices in Asia, and some portion of the assets of these directors are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be more difficult for shareholders to enforce a lawsuit within the United States against these non-U.S. residents than if they were residents of the United States. Also, it may be more difficult for shareholders to enforce any judgment obtained in the United States against the assets of our non-U.S. resident management located outside the United States than if these assets were located within the United States. A foreign court may not enforce liabilities predicated on U.S. federal securities laws in original actions commenced in certain foreign jurisdictions, or judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions based upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws.
Concentration of ownership of our common stock by our majority shareholder will limit other investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.
Our majority shareholder will be able to make decisions such as (i) making amendments to our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, (ii) whether to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, (iii) employment decisions, including compensation arrangements, (iv) whether to enter into material transactions with related parties, (v) election and removal of directors and (vi) any merger or other significant corporate transactions. The interests of our majority shareholder may not coincide with the interests of other shareholders. A new majority shareholder is anticipated to gain control over the company following the closing of the Acquisition Agreement.
Our relationship with our majority shareholder and its parent and affiliates may be on terms which are perceived by investors as more or less favorable than those that could be obtained from third parties.
Our majority shareholder, SeD Intelligent Home Inc., presently owns 99.99% of our issued and outstanding common stock. While we anticipate that such percentage will be diluted over time, our majority shareholder, its parent and affiliates will be perceived as having influence over our management and operations, and any loans or other agreements which we may enter into with our majority shareholder and its parent and affiliates may be perceived by investors as being on terms that are less favorable than we could otherwise receive; such perception could adversely impact the price of our common stock. Similarly, such agreements could be perceived as being on terms more favorable than those that could be obtained from third parties, and any unwillingness by our majority shareholder and its parent and affiliates to engage with our common stock could discourage investors.
| 6 |
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
The shares of our common stock are currently not being traded and there can be no assurance that there will be an active market in the future.
Our shares of common stock are not publicly traded, and if trading commences, the price may not reflect our value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock in the future. As a result, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business.
It is possible that we will not establish an active market unless our stock is listed for trading on an exchange, and we cannot assure shareholders that we will ever satisfy exchange listing requirements.
It is possible that a significant trading market for our shares will not develop unless the shares are listed for trading on a national exchange. Exchange listing would require us to satisfy a number of tests as to corporate governance, public float, shareholders, equity, assets, market makers and other matters, some of which we do not currently meet. We cannot assure shareholders that we will ever satisfy listing requirements for a national exchange or that there ever will be significant liquidity in our shares.
If we issue additional shares of our common stock, shareholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest.
We may issue shares of our authorized but unissued equity securities in the future. Such shares may be issued in connection with raising capital, acquiring assets or firing or retaining employees or consultants. If we issue such shares, shareholders’ ownership will be diluted.
We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, and investors should not purchase our stock expecting to receive dividends.
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock in the past, and we do not anticipate that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, some investors may decline to invest in our common stock, and this may reduce the liquidity of our stock.
The limitations on liability for officers, directors and employees under the laws of the State of Nevada and the existence of indemnification rights for our officers, directors and employees could result in substantial expenditures by the Company and could discourage lawsuits against our officers, directors and employees.
Our Articles of Incorporation contain a specific provision that eliminates the liability of our officers and directors for monetary damages to our Company and shareholders. Further, we intend to provide indemnification to our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. We may also enter into employment and other agreements in the future pursuant to which we will have indemnification obligations. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against officers and directors. These obligations may discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our officers and directors even where such litigation may be perceived as beneficial by our shareholders.

In consideration for the transfer of 5,000 shares of Alset EHome Inc., Alset Real Estate Holdings agreed to issue 704,043,224 shares of its common stock to the Company. This transaction closed on August 1, 2025.
On August 18, 2025, the Company completed the distribution of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to holders of the Company’s common stock as of August 15, 2025, in the form of a one-time special dividend (the “Distribution”).
The Distribution, having an aggregate carrying value of approximately $34.8 million as of August 15, 2025 constitutes substantially all of the Company’s net asset value. Shareholders received shares on a pro rata basis, based on the number of shares of the Company’s common stock.

Revenue
Revenue was $21,290 for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $16,767,986 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in revenue is mainly caused by the fact that the remaining properties in the Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects were sold in 2024.
In late 2022 and early 2023, the Company entered into three contracts with builders to sell multiple lots from its Lakes at Black Oak project. The sales contemplated by these contracts were contingent on certain conditions which the parties to such contracts had to meet. The sale of 335 lots closed in the first six months of 2023 generating approximately $18.1 million revenue. The sale of remaining lots closed on January 4, 2024 generating approximately $5.0 million revenue.
On November 13, 2023, the Company entered into two contracts with builders to sell multiple lots from its Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villa projects. The closing of these transactions depended on the satisfaction of certain conditions. The sale of the first 70 lots closed on July 1, 2024 generating approximately $3.8 million. The sale of the remaining 72 lots at Lakes at Black Oak closed on October 10, 2024 generating approximately $3.9 million. The sale of 63 lots at Alset Villas closed on December 16, 2024 generating approximately $3.8 million.

In May 2023, the Company entered into lease agreement for its model house located in Montgomery County, Texas. The revenue from the lease was $4,607 and $25,200 in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The lease was terminated in February 2025.
In January 2024, the Company entered into lease agreement for another model house located in Montgomery County, Texas. The revenue from the lease was $16,683 and $26,409 in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Cost of Revenue
All cost of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2025 came from model homes lease agreements. All cost of revenue in the year ended December 31, 2024 came from our Lakes at Black Oak project, Alset Villas project and model homes lease agreements. The gross margin ratio for Lakes at Black Oak project in year ended 2025 and 2024 was approximately 0% and 45%, respectively. The gross margin ratio for Alset Villas project in years ended 2025 and 2024 was approximately 0% and 42%, respectively. The decrease in cost of revenue and decrease in gross margin is caused by the decrease in property sales. The gross margin ratio for model homes lease agreements in years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately 43% and 58%, respectively. The decrease in the gross margin is caused by the decrease in revenue from rental business.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased from $1,539,184 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $1,439,003 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was caused by the deconsolidation of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. on August 18, 2025.
Other Non-operating Income (Expenses)
In the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company had other non-operating income of $457,163 compared to other non-operating income of $1,037,521 in the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in other non-operating income was caused by the Distribution.
Net Income (Loss)
The Company had a net loss of $981,966 for the year ended on December 31, 2025 and a net income of $6,673,727 for the year ended on December 31, 2024. The decrease in net income was mostly caused by the decrease in property sales. All remaining lots in Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects were sold during 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our assets have decreased to $5,912 as of December 31, 2025 from $38,792,674 as of December 31, 2024. Our liabilities decreased from $2,991,375 at December 31, 2024 to $0 at December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, we had cash in the amount of $5,912, compared to $2,762,935 as of December 31, 2024.
In August 2025, the Company completed the distribution of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to its shareholders. Following this transaction, the Company has no material operations or sources of revenue and is considered a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company’s current cash resources are expected to be sufficient only to cover minimal administrative and reporting costs for a limited period. The Company does not have any commitments for additional financing and will require either additional capital or a strategic transaction to continue its existence and satisfy ongoing reporting obligations.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
| 12 |
The planned merger, discussed under Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger paragraph above, represents management’s strategy to secure a new business operation and address the substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. While management is actively pursuing completion of the merger, the transaction had not been consummated as of the issuance date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-K and, therefore, does not currently alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have established various accounting policies under US GAAP. Some of these policies involve judgments, assumptions and estimates by the management. We base these estimates on historical experience, available current market information and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Additionally, we evaluate the results of these estimates on an ongoing basis. We are subject to uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic, environmental and political factors and changes in our business environment. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. The accounting policies that we deem most critical are as follows:

Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenue
Land Development Revenue Recognition
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which we determine revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires us to apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process for the revenue recognition of our Alset Villas project and Lakes at Black Oak project, which were essentially most of the Company’s revenue in 2024, is as follows:
| ● | Identify the contract with a customer. |
The Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices, timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.
| ● | Identify the performance obligations in the contract. |
Performance obligations of the company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.
| ● | Determine the transaction price. |
The transaction price is specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved by both parties.
| ● | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract. |
Each lot is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated to.
| ● | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations once title is transferred.
Rental Revenue Recognition
The Company leases real estate properties to its tenants under leases that are predominately classified as operating leases, in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Real estate rental revenue is comprised of minimum base rent and revenue from the collection of lease termination fees.
Rent from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease agreement on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Generally, at the end of the lease term, the Company provides the tenant with a one year renewal option, including mostly the same terms and conditions provided under the initial lease term, subject to rent increases.
| 14 |
The Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. These amounts are presented within deferred revenues and other payables on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Rental revenue is subject to an evaluation for collectability on several factors, including payment history, the financial strength of the tenant and any guarantors, historical operations and operating trends of the property, and current economic conditions. If our evaluation of these factors indicates that it is not probable that we will recover substantially all of the receivable, rental revenue is limited to the lesser of the rental revenue that would be recognized on a straight-line basis (as applicable) or the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. Differences between rental revenue recognized and amounts contractually due under the lease agreements are credited or charged to straight-line rent receivable or straight-line rent liability, as applicable. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred revenue was $0.
Cost of Revenue
| ● | Cost of Real Estate Sale |
All of the costs of real estate sales are from our land development business. Land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If allocation of development costs and capitalized interest based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project.
| ● | Cost of Rental Revenue |
Cost of rental revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with management and leasing fees to our management company, repairs and maintenance, depreciation, property taxes and other related administrative costs. Utility expenses are paid directly by tenants.
Real Estate Assets
Land Development Assets
Real estate assets are recorded at cost, except when real estate assets are acquired that meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” which acquired assets are recorded at fair value. Interest, property taxes, insurance and other incremental costs (including salaries) directly related to a project are capitalized during the construction period of major facilities and land improvements. The capitalization period begins when activities to develop the parcel commence and ends when the asset constructed is completed. The capitalized costs are recorded as part of the asset to which they relate and are reduced when lots are sold.
Lakes at Black Oak
The Lakes at Black Oak property is located in Montgomery County in Magnolia, Texas. This property is located east of FM 2978 via Standard Road to Dry Creek Road and South of the Woodlands, one of the most successful, fastest growing master planned communities in Texas. This residential land development initially consisted of approximately 162 acres. The Company has sold off all residential lots at this location as of December 31, 2024. 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. is the primary developer responsible for all infrastructure development. This property is included in Harris County Improvement District #17.
| 15 |
Alset Villas
In 2021, our subsidiary Alset EHome Inc. acquired approximately 19.5 acres of partially developed land near Houston, Texas which was used to develop a community named Alset Villas. Alset EHome developed 63 lots at Alset Villas. Sale of the 63 lots closed on December 16, 2024, pursuant to a Contract for Purchase and Sale and Escrow Instructions, entered into by the Company’s subsidiary 150 CCM Black Oak, Ltd. and Century Land Holdings of Texas, LLC on November 13, 2023.
In addition to our annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360, Impairment Testing: Long- Lived Assets classified as held and used, the Company applies a fair value-based impairment test to the net book value assets on an annual basis and on an interim basis if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred. The Company did not record impairment on any of its projects during the year ended on December 31, 2024.
Investments in Rental Properties
The Company accounts for its investments in single-family residential properties as asset acquisitions and records these acquisitions at their purchase price. The purchase price is allocated between land, building, improvements and existing leases based upon their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price for purposes of this allocation is inclusive of acquisition costs which typically include legal fees, title fees, property inspection and valuation fees, as well as other closing costs.
Building improvements and buildings are depreciated over estimated useful lives of approximately 10 to 27.5 years, respectively, using the straight-line method.
The Company assesses its investments in single-family residential properties for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. When such events occur, management determines whether there has been impairment by comparing the asset’s carrying value with its fair value. Should impairment exist, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. The Company did not recognize any impairment losses during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Reimbursement Receivable
Reimbursement receivable includes developer reimbursements for Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects. The Company records an allowance for credit losses based on previous collection experiences, the creditability of the organizations that are supposed to reimburse us, the forecasts from the third-party engineering company and Moody’s credit ratings. The allowance amount for these reimbursements was immaterial at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Winning Catering Group, Inc and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income, Stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses, losses from operations and negative cashflow from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.

Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Wining Catering Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Winning
Catering Group, Inc. (formerly known as LiquidValue Development Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada
on December 10, 2009. On December 29, 2017, the Company, acquired Alset EHome Inc. (“Alset EHome”) by reverse merger. Alset
EHome, a Delaware corporation, was formed on February 24, 2015. Alset EHome is principally engaged in developing, selling, managing,
and leasing residential properties in the United States in current stage and may expand from residential properties to other property
types, including but not limited to commercial and retail properties. The Company is
On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement with Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Alset Real Estate Holdings” or “AREH”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, the Company agreed to transfer its ownership of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset EHome Inc., the company that owns substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company, to Alset Real Estate Holdings.
On August 18, 2025, the Company completed the distribution of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to holders of the Company’s common stock as of August 15, 2025, in the form of a one-time special dividend (the “Distribution”).
The
Distribution, having an aggregate carrying value of approximately $
Management evaluated the accounting for the distribution of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to the Company’s shareholders. The distribution represented a non-cash, nonreciprocal transfer of a business to the Company’s shareholders on a pro rata basis, with no consideration received by the Company.
Management considered the guidance in ASC 810-10 on consolidation and deconsolidation, ASC 845-10 on nonmonetary transactions, ASC 505-60 on equity transactions, and SAB Topic 5.Z.7. Upon completion of the distribution, the Company lost control of AREH and deconsolidated AREH in accordance with ASC 810-10-40.
Consistent with SAB Topic 5.Z.7, the distribution was accounted for as an equity transaction, and no gain or loss was recognized upon deconsolidation. The assets and liabilities of AREH, including cash, were derecognized, with a corresponding reduction to equity.
Management has also analyzed this transaction following ASC 205-20, and concluded that the Distribution should not be presented as a discontinued operation. The transaction represents a special distribution to shareholders and should be reflected as a reduction of equity in the statement of stockholders’ equity. The remaining shell should continue to report nominal assets and capital until the planned merger (as described below) is completed.
Additionally, the management considered the guidance in ASC 205-30, Presentation of Financial Statements - Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The liquidation basis is required only when:
| ● | management with the appropriate authority has approved a plan of liquidation, and |
| ● | it is remote that the entity will return from liquidation |
Although the Company has deconsolidated all assets and liabilities of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc., it has not formally approved or adopted a formal plan of liquidation or dissolution. Instead, the Company has approved and is actively pursuing the consummation of a merger transaction, under which the legal entity will continue its existence and operations will continue in another form. Accordingly, the criteria for applying the liquidation basis of accounting are not met, and the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
| 24 |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash in the amount of $
In the year ended December 31, 2025, we incurred net losses, losses from operations and negative cash flow from operations.
In August 2025, the Company completed the distribution of the issued and outstanding shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. to its shareholders. Following this transaction, the Company has no material operations or sources of revenue and is considered a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Going Concern
The Company’s current cash resources are expected to be sufficient only to cover minimal administrative and reporting costs for a limited period. The Company does not have any commitments for additional financing and will require either additional capital or a strategic transaction to continue its existence and satisfy ongoing reporting obligations.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
On May 30, 2025, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with SeD Intelligent Home Inc., LVD Merger Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; Winning Catering Management Limited (“Winning Group”); Winning Holdings Limited; and Pure Talent Group Limited. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, LVD Merger Corp. will merge with and into Winning Group, with Winning Group surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the merger, the Company will issue new shares of its common stock, following which Winning Holdings will own approximately 80% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
The planned merger represents management’s strategy to secure a new business operation and address the substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. While management is actively pursuing completion of the merger, the transaction had not been consummated as of the issuance date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and, therefore, does not currently alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the entities as of the reporting period ending dates and for the reporting periods as follows:
Name of consolidated subsidiary | State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization | Date of incorporation or formation | Attributable interest as of December 31, 2025 | Attributable interest as of December 31, 2024 | ||||||||

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Non–controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in the Company’s subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity relating to the non–controlling interests.
The Company’s subsidiary Alset Solar Inc. was closed on June 21, 2024. The Company’s subsidiary SeD REIT Inc. was closed on August 26, 2024. The Company’s subsidiary SeD Builder LLC was closed on September 2, 2024. The closing of these three companies did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.
As
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate non-controlling interest was $ and $
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Fully diluted income (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There were no dilutive financial instruments issued or outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and short-term borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The authoritative guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories:
● Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
● Level 2 – observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and
● Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Cash
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.
There were
Restricted Cash
As
a condition to the loan agreement with the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T Bank”), the Company’s
subsidiary, SeD Maryland Development LLC, was required to maintain a minimum of $
Other Receivables
Other receivables mostly include funds due from a title company and federal tax refund receivable.
Reimbursement Receivable, Net
Reimbursement receivable includes developer reimbursements for Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects. The Company records an allowance for credit losses based on previous collection experiences, the creditability of the organizations that are supposed to reimburse us, the forecasts from the third-party engineering company and Moody’s credit ratings. The allowance amount for these reimbursements was immaterial at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Fixed Assets, Net
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of depreciation. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over the estimated useful lives, which are 3 years.
Real Estate Assets
| ● | Land Development Assets |
Real estate assets are recorded at cost, except when real estate assets are acquired that meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” which acquired assets are recorded at fair value. Interest, property taxes, insurance and other incremental costs (including salaries) directly related to a project are capitalized during the construction period of major facilities and land improvements. The capitalization period begins when activities to develop the parcel commence and ends when the asset constructed is completed. The capitalized costs are recorded as part of the asset to which they relate and are reduced when lots are sold.
In addition to our annual assessment of potential triggering events in accordance with ASC 360, the Company applies a fair value-based impairment test to the net book value assets on an annual basis. The Company would also apply a fair value-based impairment test to the net book value assets in the interim if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred.
| 27 |
The Company did not record impairment on any of its projects during the year ended December 31, 2024.
| ● | Rental of Model Houses |
In May 2023, the Company entered into a lease agreement for one of its model houses located in Montgomery County, Texas. This lease agreement was terminated in February 2025.
On
July 14, 2023, 150 CCM Black Oak Ltd entered into a model home lease agreement with Davidson Homes, LLC (“Davidson”). On
August 3, 2023, Black Oak entered into a development and construction agreement with Davidson to build a model house located in Montgomery
County, Texas. On January 4, 2024, Black Oak paid $
Revenue Recognition
| ● | Land Development Revenue Recognition |
ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which we determine revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires us to apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation. A detailed breakdown of the five-step process for the revenue recognition of our Lakes at Black Oak and Alset Villas projects, which earned the majority of the Company’s revenue in 2024, is as follows:
a) Identify the contract with a customer.
The Company has signed agreements with the builders for developing the raw land to ready to build lots. The contract has agreed upon prices, timelines, and specifications for what is to be provided.
b) Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Performance obligations of the company include delivering developed lots to the customer, which are required to meet certain specifications that are outlined in the contract. The customer inspects all lots prior to accepting title to ensure all specifications are met.
c) Determine the transaction price.
The transaction price is specified in the contract. Any subsequent change orders or price changes are required to be approved by both parties.
d) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.
Each lot is considered to be a separate performance obligation, for which the specified price in the contract is allocated to.
e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
| 28 |
The builders do the inspections to make sure all conditions/requirements are met before taking title of lots. The Company recognizes revenue when title is transferred. The Company does not have further performance obligations once title is transferred. Revenue is recognized at a point in time.
| ● | Rental Revenue Recognition |
The Company leases real estate properties to its tenants under leases that are predominately classified as operating leases, in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Real estate rental revenue is comprised of minimum base rent and revenue from the collection of lease termination fees.
Rent from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease agreement on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Generally, at the end of the lease term, the Company provides the tenant with a one year renewal option, including mostly the same terms and conditions provided under the initial lease term, subject to rent increases.
The Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates.
Rental revenue is subject to an evaluation for collectability on several factors, including payment history, the financial strength of the tenant and any guarantors, historical operations and operating trends of the property, and current economic conditions. If our evaluation of these factors indicates that it is not probable that we will recover substantially all of the receivable, rental revenue is limited to the lesser of the rental revenue that would be recognized on a straight-line basis (as applicable) or the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. Differences between rental revenue recognized and amounts contractually due under the lease agreements are credited or charged to straight-line rent receivable or straight-line rent liability, as applicable.
Cost of Revenue
| ● | Cost of Real Estate Sale |
All of the costs of real estate sales are from our land development business. Land acquisition costs are allocated to each lot based on the area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project. Development costs and capitalized interest are allocated to lots sold based on the total expected development and interest costs of the completed project and allocating a percentage of those costs based on the selling price of the sold lot compared to the expected sales values of all lots in the project.
If allocation of development costs based on the projection and relative expected sales value is impracticable, those costs could also be allocated based on area method, the size of the lot comparing to the total size of all lots in the project.
| ● | Cost of Rental Revenue |
Cost of rental revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with management and leasing fees to our management company, repairs and maintenance, depreciation, property taxes and other related administrative costs. Utility expenses are paid directly by tenants.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss and credit carry-forwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted tax rates. The differences relate primarily to net operating loss carryforward from date of acquisition and to the use of the cash basis of accounting for income tax purposes. The Company records an estimated valuation allowance on its deferred income tax assets if it is more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets will not be realized.
| 29 |
The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company’s tax returns for 2024, 2023 and 2022 remain open to examination. The Company’s federal income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2023 is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Segments
The Company has one reportable segment, real estate, which includes its land development projects and rental business. The Company’s chief operating decision makers (the “CODMs”) are the Co-Chief Executive Officers, who review and assess the performance of the Company as a whole. The CODMs primarily use net income (loss) and operating income (loss) to evaluate performance and allocate resources, and these measures are prepared on the same basis as in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The CODMs use these measures in assessing ongoing operations and in the Company’s internal planning and forecasting processes. Segment expenses and other items are provided to the CODMs on the same basis as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the CODMs do not use information on segment assets in evaluating performance or allocating resources.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendment in the ASU is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU’s amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses, primarily through additional disaggregation of income statement expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine the impact on the Company’s disclosures.
2. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of certain state jurisdictions. We have substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax and state tax matters through 2021. However, our federal tax returns for the years 2022 through 2024 remain open to examination. The Company’s federal income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2023 is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service. State tax jurisdiction tax years remain open to examination as well, though we believe that any additional assessment would be immaterial to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date through the date of this report and determined that there were no subsequent events or transactions that required recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
Not Applicable.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of our Report on Form 10-K, an evaluation was carried out by management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(b), 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2025. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025 conducted as part of our annual audit and preparation of our annual financial statements, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective for those reasons set forth below.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements included in this annual report. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s judgment and estimates concerning effects of events and transactions that are accounted for or disclosed.
Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to our ability to record, process, summarize and report reliable data. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of internal control. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.
In order to ensure that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, management regularly assesses controls and did so most recently for its financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. In connection with management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, management determined that the Company did not maintain effective controls over financial reporting due to limited staff. This limited number of staff prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. Management determined that the ineffective controls over financial reporting constitute a material weakness.

This annual report filed on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We continue taking steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to completely remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to appoint additional qualified personnel with financial accounting, GAAP, and SEC experience.

Family Relationships

Policies and Procedures for Transactions with Related Persons
Our board of directors intends to adopt a written related person transaction policy to set forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. Related persons include any executive officer, director or a holder of more than 5% of our common stock, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. Related person transactions refer to any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which (i) we were or are to be a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and (iii) a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Related person transactions include, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness, and employment by us of a related person, in each case subject to certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.
| 42 |
We expect that the policy will provide that in any related person transaction, our audit committee and board of directors will consider all of the available material facts and circumstances of the transaction, including: the direct and indirect interests of the related persons; in the event the related person is a director (or immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated), the impact that the transaction will have on a director’s independence; the risks, costs and benefits of the transaction to us; and whether any alternative transactions or sources for comparable services or products are available. After considering all such facts and circumstances, our audit committee and board of directors will determine whether approval or ratification of the related person transaction is in our best interests. For example, if our audit committee determines that the proposed terms of a related person transaction are reasonable and at least as favorable as could have been obtained from unrelated third parties, it will recommend to our board of directors that such transaction be approved or ratified. Our audit committee will recommend that our board of directors reject any transaction if it could affect our ability to comply with securities laws and regulations.
