Business Overview

We are a provider of health and wellness products and advisory services in the Malaysian market. We pursue our mission of helping people to create health and wealth by providing a financially rewarding business opportunity to distributors and quality products to distributors and customers who seek a healthy lifestyle. We believe the quality of our products coupled with the effectiveness of our distribution network have been the primary reasons for our success and will allow us to pursue future business expansion. In order to further our supply chain, on May 8, 2020, we acquired 99.99% of Agape Superior Living Sdn Bhd, with the goal of securing an established network marketing sales channel that has been in existence in Malaysia for the past 15 years. On September 11, 2020, the Company incorporated Wellness ATP International Holdings Sdn. Bhd., a wholly owned subsidiary in Malaysia, with the aim to pursue the business of promoting wellness and wellbeing lifestyle of the community through the provision of services including online editorials, programs, events and campaigns on how to achieve positive wellness and lifestyle.

We currently offer two series of products: ATP Zeta Health Program and E.A.T.S. The ATP Zeta Health Program is a health program designed to assist in the elimination of various diseases caused by environmental pollutants, unhealthy dietary intake and unhealthy lifestyles. The program aims to promote improved health and longevity through a combination of modern health supplements, proper nutrition and advice from skilled dieticians. The Easy and Tasty Series (“E.A.T.S”) is crafted to bring nutritious lifestyle in convenient approach to maintain healthy living.

On November 11, 2021, Agape ATP Corporation (Labuan) formed a joint-venture entity, DSY Wellness International Sdn. Bhd. (“DSY Wellness”) with Mr. Steve Yap, following which Agape ATP Corporation (Labuan) owns 60% of the equity interest, to pursue the business of providing complementary health therapies. The establishment of DSY Wellness is a further expansion of our business into the health and wellness industry. Mr. Steve Yap readily owns 33 proprietary formulas for treating non-communicable disease which he has agreed to bring into the company for joint commercialization. Mr. Steve Yap also has existing clients receiving traditional complimentary medicine or “TCM” in Indonesia and China.

The Company deems creating public awareness on wellness and wellbeing lifestyle as essential to enhance the provision of its health solution advisory services; and therefore, incorporated CEDAR. Upon its establishment, CEDAR started collaborating with ASL to carry out various wellness programs.

To further its reach in the Health and Wellness Industry, on November 11, 2021, AATP LB formed an entity, DSY Wellness with an independent third party which AATP LB owns 60% of the equity interest, to pursue the business of providing complementary health therapies.

AGE delivers innovative solutions for sustainability, energy savings and promoting environmental stewardship to achieves energy efficiency and carbon neutrality for a healthier environment.

ATPC Technology Private Limited (“ATPC Tech”) intend to collaborate with local IT expertise to develop comprehensive digital wellness platform that integrates e-commerce, online consultations, chronic disease management, and robust supply chain services catering to ASEAN market.

Our Products

We offer two series of products: (i) ATP Zeta Health Program and (ii) E.A.T.S. in ASL.

The ATP Zeta Health Program is a health program designed to promote health and general wellbeing, as well as to prevent diseases caused by polluted environments, unhealthy dietary intake and unhealthy lifestyles. At its core, the ATP Zeta Super Health Program is focused upon biological energy, Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), at the cellular level. The stimulation of ATP production at the cellular level can increase an individual’s metabolic rate in order to promote and maintain normal and healthy functioning of the body’s systems. Our program emphasizes nutrient absorption through the membrane ion channel in order to provide complete and balanced nutrients to improve cellular health. Thus, ATP Zeta Super Health Program provides ionized and high zeta potential (high bioavailability) nutrients to enhance the absorption at the cellular level.

The E.A.T.S is crafted to bring nutritious lifestyle in convenient approach to maintain healthy living.

DSY Wellness provides complementary health therapies based on the health screening test report to prescribe the products and therapies.

AGE provides products, technical knowledge and solutions for sustainability, energy savings and promoting environmental stewardship.

Our Business Model

We believe that the direct-selling channel is ideally suited to marketing our products, because sales of health solution and personal care products are strengthened by ongoing personal contact between retail consumers and distributors. This personal contact may enhance consumers’ nutritional and health education and motivate consumers to begin and maintain wellness and weight management programs. In addition, by using our products themselves, distributors can provide first-hand testimonials of product effectiveness, which can serve as a powerful sales tool.

We are focused on building and maintaining our distributor network by offering financially rewarding and flexible career opportunities through the sale of quality, innovative products to health-conscious consumers. We believe the income opportunity provided by our bonus program appeals to a broad cross-section of our members, particularly those seeking to supplement family income, start a home business or pursue entrepreneurial, full and part-time, employment opportunities. Our distributors, who are all independent third parties, profit from selling our products and also earning bonuses through performance of their network group, the establishment of their own network group and the performance of distributors recruited under their own network group. Top performing distributors with their own physical stores may also become stockists of the company, whereby they enjoy benefits such as maintaining a certain amount of the Company’s inventory in their store premises, with the requirement that all product sales are monitored through our centralized stock tracking system and accounted back to us. The stockists have the option of returning or exchanging any unsold inventory consigned to them.

We enable distributors to maximize their potential by providing a broad array of motivational, educational and support services. We motivate our distributors through our performance-based compensation plan, product-training seminars, workshops and participation in routine promotional activities.

We are committed to providing professionally designed educational training materials that our distributors can use to enhance recruitment and to maximize their sales. We conduct several training sessions per year to motivate our distributors. These training events teach our distributors not only how to develop invaluable business-building and leadership skills, but also how to differentiate our products with their consumers, including information sessions presented by in-house nutritional consultants.

Our corporate-sponsored training events provide a forum for distributors, who otherwise operate independently, to share ideas with us and each other. In addition, we are also developing an e-marketing and e-trading platform allowing for marketing and trading of products to members, as well as online recruitment of new members and to provide direct sales to customers.

We are committed to providing our distributors with quality products to help them increase sales and recruit additional distributors. We leverage our team of in-house nutritional consultants with rich experience gained in the area of nutrition, in collaborating with our customers and clients to understand the health and wellness market via a process of consultative review. This review team is headed by the Head of Product Development. We then communicate our findings and proposals to third-party suppliers to improve formulations, to bring about new products for distributors and members who are ready to market to end-users.

We place a strong emphasis on the science of nutrition. We have obtained the appropriate authorizations from the Food Safety and Quality Division, and the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency of the Ministry of Health, Malaysia for all our products. Whenever products are purchased for inventory replenishment, samples are randomly selected from every batch for testing at laboratories registered with the Ministry of Health Malaysia.

Our Customers

General

We provide health and wellness products and advisory services to health-conscious customers in the Malaysian market. Such customers are able to enjoy membership discounts across all our products by becoming a member.

Our distributors enjoy further discounts on all of our products. Besides our three sales branches located in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru and Ipoh, our products are all distributed to customers and members by our distributor’s networks, which are comprised of three stockists who are also independent distributors, whose store premises are located in two other locations in Malaysia.

We believe that our products are particularly well-suited for direct distribution because the sale of health and nutrition products are strengthened by ongoing personal contact between retail customers and distributors. We believe our continued commitment to source quality science-based products will enhance our ability to attract new customer, as well as increase the productivity and retention of our distributors.

Structure of the membership program

Our customers are able to become lifetime members by paying a one-time membership fee with the purchase of specific products. Doing so allows the customer to enjoy membership discounts on all our products.

Members who accumulate a predetermined number of purchases are automatically promoted to become a distributor of the Company. Other than helping distributors achieve physical health and wellness through the use of our products, we offer our distributors, who are independent third parties, bonuses based on various performance factors. Distributors are required to maintain a predetermined number of purchases per year in order to maintain their distributor status.

Top performing distributors with their own physical stores may also become stockists of the Company, whereby they enjoy benefits such as maintaining a certain amount of the Company’s inventory in their store premises. The stockists shall account to the Company for all products sales from their store premises as monitored through the Company’s centralized stock tracking system. The stockists shall have the option to either return or exchange the Company’s inventory consigned to them that are unsold.

The following table sets forth the number of members and distributors at the date indicated:

Distributors’ and members’ earnings

Distributors and members earn profits from the sales of our products to customers. Distributors enjoy additional discounts compared to members, allowing them to earn higher direct profits through the differences in pricing when selling products they bought at distributors’ prices which are more favorable than member’s prices to customers.

Members are encouraged to build their respective network group. Members are promoted to distributors if they manage to recruit the requisite number of members; and the network group is able to achieve set sales targets. Other than preferential distributor pricing for the purchase of the Company’s products, distributors enjoy bonuses from the collective performance of their network group. There are several levels of distributors depending on the size and the collective sales performance of their respective network group. Each level affords bonus benefits in a different form in ascending order. A higher-level distributor will be compensated with higher returns in the form of bonus entitlements.

Distributors and members motivation and training

We believe that motivation, inspiration and training are key elements in the success of sales via network group marketing. Together with our distributors and members, we have established a consistent schedule of gatherings to support those needs. We conduct several training sessions per year to educate and motivate our distributors and members. The training sessions are typically presented by in-house staff with suitable background in nutrition, in order to provide key nutrition information about our products, as well as providing workshops to promote presentation skills to attending participants.

Our Suppliers

All of our products are acquired from related parties and unrelated third parties located in Malaysia, and rebranded by us. Due to the high costs associated with research and development of nutrition and health products, we do not maintain any facilities to produce our products. We have no expenditures or expenses relating to research and development of our product. We leverage our team of in-house nutritional consultants with rich experience gained in the area of nutritionist work, in collaborating with our customers and clients to understand the health and wellness market via a process of consultative review. We then communicate our findings and proposals to third-party suppliers to improve formulations and to bring about new products for distributors and members who are ready to market to end-users.

Quality Control

At present, our products are predominately sold in Malaysia. As the contents and combination of the main ingredients in our ATP Zeta Health Program and E.A.T.S series are categorized as health food rather than medicines or drugs, all of our products require authorization from the Food Safety and Quality Division of the Ministry of Health, Malaysia according to the Food Act 1983 (ACT 281) & Regulations in order to be sold in the country. Accordingly, we have obtained the appropriate authorizations from the Food Safety and Quality Division of the Ministry of Health, Malaysia for all products in our ATP Zeta Health Program and E.A.T.S series.

Inventory

The Company operates a central warehouse at its head office in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, which typically maintains an inventory reserve of up to 6 months per product. Inventory is transferred to the Company’s sales branches via ordering through the Company’s centralized stock tracking system. Stockists of the Company are required to have physical stores, and enjoys the benefit of being able to store certain amount of inventory in their stores for convenience. The stockists shall account to the Company for all products sales from their store premises as monitored through the Company’s centralized stock tracking system. The stockists shall have the option to either return or exchange the Company’s inventory consigned to them that are unsold.

Seasonality

The Company’s business is generally not subject to any seasonality factors.

Warranty

Our products include a customer satisfaction guarantee. Under this guarantee, within 90 days of purchase, any customer who is not satisfied with our product for any reason may return it or any unused portion of it to the distributor from whom it was purchased for a full refund from the Company or credit toward the purchase of another product.

Historically, product returns have not been significant.

E-commerce system

In order to facilitate our continued growth and to support distributor activities, we continually invest and upgrade our platforms. In 2019, we invested in an initiative to establish e-commerce through the setup of e-trading of our products on an existing Malaysian e-commerce trading platform. Our e-trading initiative will be actively promoted for online recruitment of new members by existing distributors and to provide direct sales to customers. Once the E-trading platform has provided tangible results in the Malaysia market, we intend to expand the platform to other geographic markets in order to duplicate its success. We also intend to approach online social influencers as part of our marketing strategy to promote our products and our e-commerce platform.

Intellectual Property

We consider trademarks, patents and copyrights to protect our intellectual property rights critical to our success. We are the registered owner of five registered trademarks in Malaysia. We are also the registered owner of domain named “agapeatpgroup.com”.

Employees

As at December 31, 2024, we had 16 employees (excluding our Directors). The following table sets forth the number of employees by function:

Insurance

The Employees’ Social Security Act, 1969, Malaysia mandates employers and employees to make a monthly contribution to the Social Security Organisation, Malaysia, (“SOCSO”) for any employee who is employed for wages paid under a contract of service or apprenticeship with an employer for the purpose of providing social security protection to employees and their dependents against occupational injuries, including industrial accident, accident during emergency at the employers’ premises, occupational diseases and commuting accidents. Depending on the monthly wages earned by the employee, employers shall cause to be deducted from the respective employee’s wages, amounts that ranges between RM0.10 to RM29.75 for monthly wages between RM30 to RM6,000. The employers’ contribution corresponds to the said rates are between RM0.4 to RM104.15. Rates applicable to both the employee and employer are fixed at the maximum rate of RM29.75 and RM104.15 respectively. Employees who have attained 60 years of age are not required to contribute to the scheme. The employer’s responsibility towards this group shall be at a reduced rate which ranges between MYR0.30 to RM74.40 for the said wage band.

Other than SOCSO, effective January 1, 2018, employees and employers in the private sector are mandated to contribute to an employment insurance system, (“EIS”) under the Employment Insurance System Act, 2017. Both the employee and employer shall contribute at an equal rate at 0.2% of the employee’s wages under the scheme, subject to a maximum monthly wage rate of RM6,000. No further contribution to the scheme is required from the employee or the employer for employees who have attained 60 years of age; and employees aged 57 and above who have no prior contributions are exempted.

We do not have any third-party liability insurance to cover claims in respect of personal injury or property or environmental damage arising from accidents on our property or relating to our operations. Such insurance is not mandatory according to the laws and regulations of Malaysia. We typically do not require our distributors to purchase insurance regarding their operations. We believe this practice is consistent with customary industry standards.

Regulations

At present, our products are predominately sold in Malaysia. As the contents and combination of the main ingredients in our ATP Zeta Health Program and E.A.T.S. series are categorized as health food rather than medicines or drugs, all of our products require authorization from the Food Safety and Quality Division of the Ministry of Health, Malaysia according to the Food Act 1983 (ACT 281) & Regulations in order to be sold in the country. Accordingly, we have obtained the appropriate authorizations from the Food Safety and Quality Division of the Ministry of Health, Malaysia for all products in our ATP Zeta Health Program and E.A.T.S series.

We are exposed to concentration risk of heavy reliance on our two largest suppliers for the supply of our products, and any shortage of, or delay in, the supply may significantly impact on our business and results of operation.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we purchased $335,494 and $98,391 from two of our major suppliers, represented approximately 59.8% and 17.5% respectively, of our total purchases. Our business, financial condition and operating results depend on the continuous supply of products from our major suppliers and our continuous supplier-customer relationships with them. Our heavy reliance on our major suppliers for the supply of our products will have significant impact on our business and results of operation in the event of any shortage of, or delay in the supply.

We currently do not have long term supply agreements with our two largest suppliers for the year ended December 31, 2024, and we typically make ad hoc purchases through submission of purchase order forms. There is no assurance that our major suppliers will continue to supply their products in the quantities and timeframes required by us to meet the needs of our customers or comply with their supply agreements with us. Our product supply may also be disrupted by potential labor disputes, strike action, natural disasters or other accidents, epidemic and pandemic affecting the supplier. If our major suppliers do not supply products to us in a timely manner or in sufficient quantities, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, in the event of any delay in delivery of the products to us, our cash flow or working capital may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the corresponding delay in delivery of our products to our customers, and hence the delay in our receipt of payment from our customers.

Our major suppliers may change their existing sales or marketing strategy in respect of the products supplied to us by changing their export strategy, reducing its sales or production volume or changing its selling prices. Consequently, there are no assurances that our major suppliers will not appoint other dealers or distributors which may compete with us in the market where we operate. Furthermore, any significant increase in the selling prices of the products which we source from our suppliers will increase our costs and may adversely affect our profit margin if we are not able to pass the increased costs on to our customers.

There are no assurances that there will be no deterioration in our relationships with our major suppliers which could affect our ability to secure sufficient supply of products for our business. In the event that our major suppliers change their sales or marketing strategy or otherwise appoint other dealers or distributors who may compete with us, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

We could be adversely affected by a change in consumer preferences, perception and spending habits and failure to develop or enrich our product offering or gain market acceptance of our new products could have a negative effect on our business.

The market we operate is subject to changes in consumer preference, perception and spending habits. Our performance depends significantly on factors which may affect the level and pattern of consumer spending in the market we operate. Such factors include consumer preference, consumer confidence, consumer income and consumer perception of the safety and quality of our products. Media coverage regarding the safety or quality of, or diet or health issues relating to, our products or the raw materials, ingredients or processes involved in their manufacturing, may damage consumer confidence in our products. A general decline in the consumption of our products could occur as a result of change in consumer preference, perception and spending habits at any time.

Any failure to adapt our product offering to respond to such changes may result in a decrease in our sales if such changes are related to certain of our products. Any changes in consumer preference could result in lower sales of our products, put pressure on pricing or lead to increased levels of selling and promotional expenses. In any event a decrease in customer demand on our products may also result in lower sales and slow down the consumption of our inventory to a low inventory turnover level. Any of these changes could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions or results of operations.

The success of our products depends on a number of factors including our ability to accurately anticipate changes in market demand and consumer preferences, our ability to differentiate the quality of our products from those of our competitors, and the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns for our products. We may not be successful in identifying trends in consumer preferences and developing products that respond to such trends in a timely manner. We also may not be able to effectively promote our products by our marketing and advertising campaigns and gain market acceptance. If our products fail to gain market acceptance, are restricted by regulatory requirements, or have quality problems, we may not be able to fully recover our costs and expenses incurred in our operation, and our business prospects, financial condition or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

If we fail to maintain quality products and value, our sales are likely to be negatively affected.

Our success depends on the safety and quality of products that we obtain from our suppliers for our customers. Our future customers will identify our brand name with a certain level of quality and value. If we cannot meet this perceived value or level of quality, we may be negatively affected and our operating results may suffer. In addition, any failure on the part of our suppliers to maintain the quality of their products, will in turn substantially harm the results of our business operations, potentially forcing us to identify other suppliers or alter our business strategy significantly.

If we are unable to create brand influence, we may not be able to maintain current or attract new users and customers for our products.

Our operational and financial performance is highly dependent on the strength of our brand. We believe brand familiarity and preference will continue to have a significant role in winning customers as the decision to buy our products and services. In order to further expand our customer base, we may need to substantially increase our marketing expenditures to enhance brand awareness through various online and offline means. Moreover, negative coverage in the media of our company could threaten the perception of our brand, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to defuse negative press coverage about our company to the satisfaction of our investors, customers and suppliers. If we are unable to defuse negative press coverage about our company, our brand may suffer in the marketplace, our operational and financial performance may be negatively impacted and the price of our shares may decline.

Currently, we sell our products, with or without customization, under our brand name “ATP”, to domestic customers in Malaysia and to overseas customers. However, if our competitors initiate a lawsuit against us for infringing their trademark, we may be forced to adopt a new brand name for our products. As a result, we may incur additional marketing cost to raise awareness of such new brand name. We may also be ordered to pay a significant amount of damages, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.

We rely on intellectual property laws in Malaysia and other jurisdictions to protect our trademarks. We are the registered owner of five trademarks in Malaysia. We cannot assure that counterfeiting or imitation of our products will not occur in the future or, if it does occur, that we will be able to address the problem in a timely and effective manner. Any occurrence of counterfeiting or imitation of our products or other infringement of our intellectual property rights could negatively affect our brand and our reputation, which in turn adversely affects the results of our operations.

Litigation to prosecute infringement of our intellectual property rights could be costly and lengthy and will divert our managerial and financial resources. We will have to bear costs of the intellectual property litigation and may be unable to recover such costs from our opposite parties. Protracted litigation could also result in our customers deferring or limiting their purchase or use of or products until such litigation is resolved. The occurrence of any of the foregoing will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may incur losses resulting from product liability claims or product recalls or adverse publicity relating to our products.

We may incur losses resulting from product liability claims with respect to our products supplied by our supplier. We may face claims or liabilities which may arise if there exist any defects in quality of these products or any of these products are deemed or proven to be unsafe, defective or contaminated. In the event that the use or misuse of any product distributed by us results in personal injury or death, product liability and/or indemnity claims may be brought against us, in addition to our product recalls, and the relevant regulatory authorities in the market we operate may close down some of our related operations and take administrative actions against us. If we experience any business disruption and litigation, we may incur additional costs and have to divert our management’s attention and resources on such matters, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in a heavily regulated industry.

Our business is principally regulated by various laws and regulations in the market we operate, such as in Malaysia the Food Act of 1983 (Act 281) and Regulations, Control of Drugs and Cosmetics Regulations 1984 mandate authorization from the Food Safety and Quality Division and National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency of the Ministry of Health for our Company’s products to be sold in the country. Various registrations, certificates and/or licenses for the conduct of our business are required under the above laws, which also contain provisions for requirements on the storage, labelling, advertising and importation of some of our products.

Based on our experience, some of the laws and regulations of the place where we operate our business are subject to amendments, uncertainty in interpretation and administrative actions from time to time. Therefore, we cannot assure you that, for the implementation of our business plans and the introduction of any new product, we will be able to obtain all the necessary registrations, certificates and/or licenses. Any failure to comply with the above laws and regulations may give rise to fines, administrative penalties and/or prosecution against us, which may adversely affect our reputation, financial condition or results of operation.

We had previously relied on our variable interest entity, Agape S.E.A. Sdn Bhd, in Malaysia for our business operations, which may not be as effective in providing operational control or enabling us to derive economic benefits as through ownership of controlling equity interests. While we no longer rely on Agape S.E.A. Sdn Bhd for our operations, we may do so in the future.

Agape S.E.A. Sdn Bhd’s equity at risk was insufficient to finance its business activities and it provided all of the Company’s purchases during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. As a result, it is considered to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and the Company is the primary beneficiary since it has both of the following characteristics, (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. However, the Company no longer relied on the VIE after the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, Agape S.E.A. Sdn Bhd did not provide any purchase to the Company. In addition, Agape S.E.A.’s impact to our consolidated financial statements constitutes less than 1% of our total consolidated assets. While the Company have not made any purchases from the VIE for the year ended December 31, 2024, we may expect to continue to rely on ASL’s beneficiary ownership structure with Agape S.E.A. to operate our business.

Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and/or directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024, we identified two “material weaknesses”, and other control deficiencies including significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified related to the Company were: (i) insufficient full-time personnel with appropriate levels of accounting knowledge and experience to monitor the daily recording of transactions, address complex U.S. GAAP accounting issues and to prepare and review financial statements and related disclosures under U.S. GAAP; (ii) lack of a functional internal audit department or personnel that monitors the consistencies of the preventive internal control procedures and lack of adequate policies and procedures in internal audit function to ensure that the Company’s policies and procedures have been carried out as planned.

We have taken measures and plan to continue to take measures to remedy these material weaknesses. The measures that we are planning to take include, but not limited to, hiring full-time personnel with appropriate levels of accounting knowledge and experience to address the U.S. GAAP or provide training and development opportunities for existing personnel to enhance their accounting knowledge and expertise and forming an internal audit function and have plans to hire internal auditors to strengthen our overall governance. If hire full time internal auditors is not feasible, we plan to engage a consulting firm that specializes in compliance and internal controls as a temporary solution. All internal auditors will be independent of our operations and will report directly to the audit committee. The implementation of these measures may not fully address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, and we cannot conclude that they have been fully remedied. Our failure to correct theses material weaknesses or our failure to discover and address any other material weaknesses could result in inaccuracies in our financial statements and could also impair our ability to comply with applicable financial reporting requirements and related regulatory filings on a timely basis.

As a public company, we will become subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or SOX 404, will require that we include a report from management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in our annual report on Form 10-K and in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q if we are qualified as an accelerated filer. Our management may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us.

During the course of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of SOX 404, we may identify other weaknesses and deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with SOX 404. If we fail to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, we could suffer material misstatements in our financial statements and fail to meet our reporting obligations, which would likely cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. This could in turn limit our access to capital markets, harm our results of operations, and lead to a decline in the trading price of our shares. Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose us to increased risk of fraud or misuse of corporate assets and subject us to potential delisting from the stock exchange on which we list, regulatory investigations and civil or criminal sanctions. We may also be required to restate our financial statements from prior periods.

Legal disputes or proceedings could expose us to liability, divert our management’s attention and negatively impact our reputation.

We may at times be involved in potential legal disputes or proceedings during the ordinary course of business operations relating to product or other types of liability, employees’ claims, labor disputes or contract disputes that could have a material and adverse effect on our reputation, operation and financial condition. If we become involved in material or protracted legal proceedings or other legal disputes in the future, the outcome of such proceedings could be uncertain and could result in settlements or outcomes which adversely affect our financial condition. In addition, any litigation or legal proceedings could incur substantial legal expenses as well as significant time and attention of our management, diverting their attention from our business and operations.

Our failure to comply with anti-corruption laws and regulations, or effectively manage our employees, customers and business partners, could severely damage our reputation, and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are subject to risks in relation to actions taken by us, our employees, third-party customers or third-party suppliers that constitute violations of the anti-corruption laws and regulations. While we adopt strict internal procedures and work closely with relevant government agencies to ensure compliance of our business operations with relevant laws and regulations, our efforts may not be sufficient to ensure that we comply with relevant laws and regulations at all times. If we, our employees, third-party customers or third-party suppliers violate these laws, rules or regulations, we could be subject to fines and/or other penalties. Actions by Malaysia regulatory authorities or the courts to provide an alternative interpretation of the laws and regulations or to adopt additional anti-bribery or anti-corruption related regulations could also require us to make changes to our operations. Our reputation, corporate image, and business operations may be materially and adversely affected if we fail to comply with these measures or become the target of any negative publicity as a result of actions taken by us, our employees, third-party customers or third-party suppliers.

If we are unable to successfully develop and timely introduce new products or services or enhance existing products or services, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We must continually source, develop and introduce new products and services as well as improve and enhance our existing products and services to maintain or increase our sales. The success of new or enhanced products or services may depend on a number of factors including, anticipating and effectively addressing user preferences and demand, the success of our sales and marketing efforts, effective forecasting and management of products and services demands, purchase commitments, and the quality of or defects in our products. The risk of not meeting our customers’ preferences and demands through our products and services may result in a shift in market shares, as customers instead choose products and services offered by our competitors. This may result in lower sales revenue, materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to manage the growth of our business and our expansion plans and operations or implement our business strategies on schedule or within our budget, or at all.

We are continually executing a number of growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans designed to enhance our business. Any expansion may increase the complexity of our operations and place a significant strain on our managerial, operational, financial and human resources. Our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively manage our growth or to implement all these systems, procedures and control measures successfully. Furthermore, the anticipated benefits from these growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans are based on assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Moreover, we may not be able to successfully complete these growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans and realize all of the benefits that we expect to achieve or it may be more costly to do so than we anticipate. If, for any reason, we are not able to manage our growth effectively, the benefits we realize are less than our estimates or the implementation of these growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans adversely affects our operations or costs more or takes longer to effectuate than we expect, and/or if our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, we may seek and pursue opportunities through joint ventures or strategic partnerships for expansion from time to time, and we may face similar risks and uncertainties as listed above. Failure to properly address these risks and uncertainties may materially and adversely affect our ability to carry out acquisitions and other expansion plans, integrate and consolidate newly acquired or newly formed businesses, and realize all or any of the anticipated benefits of such expansion, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We have a limited operating history in the Malaysia health and wellness industry, which makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects.

We launched our ATP Zeta Super Health Program business in June 2016, the same month in which our Company was incorporated, followed by our “ENERGETIQUE”, “BEAUNIQUE” and “E.A.T.S.” series in July 2018, March 2019 and March 2023 respectively. Due to the poor response from distributors to “ENERGETIQUE” and “BEAUNIQUE” series, we decided to discontinue the two series in December 2022. We have limited experience in most aspects of our business operation, such as sourcing products for and offering advisory services on all the three programs. As our business develops and as we respond to competition, we may continue to introduce new product and services offerings and make adjustments to our existing product line and services and to our business operation in general. Any significant change to our business model that does not achieve expected results may have a material and adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. It is therefore difficult to effectively assess our future prospects.

The Malaysia health and wellness industry may not develop as expected. Prospective retail and corporate customers may not be familiar with the development of the market and may have difficulties distinguishing our products from those of our competitors. Convincing prospective customers or distributors of the value of our products or services is important to the success of our business. The risk of failing to convince potential customers or distributors to purchase products or services from us may result in the failure of our business plan. Many customers or distributors may not be interested in purchasing products and services we sell because there is no certainty that our business will succeed.

You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and challenges we encounter or may encounter given the rapidly evolving market in which we operate and our limited operating history. These risks and challenges include our ability to, among other things:

• manage our future growth;
• increase the utilization of our products by existing and new customers;
• maintain and enhance our relationships with customers and distributors;
• improve our operational efficiency;
• attract, retain and motivate talented employees;
• cope with economic fluctuations;
• navigate the evolving regulatory environment; and
• defend ourselves against legal and regulatory actions.

Our historical growth rates may not be indicative of our future growth. If we are unable to manage the growth and increased complexity of our business, fail to control our costs and expenses, or fail to execute our strategies effectively, our business and business prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

Our historical growth rates may not be indicative of our future growth, and we may not be able to generate similar growth rates in future periods. Our revenue growth may slow, or our total revenues may decline for a number of possible reasons, including change in consumers’ preferences, changes in regulations and government policies, increasing competition, emergence of alternative business models, and general economic conditions.

Our total revenues decreased by approximately 7.6% from approximately $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to approximately $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our gross profit decreased by approximately 18.9% from approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to approximately $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

If our growth rate declines, investors’ perceptions of our business and business prospects may be materially and adversely affected and the market price of our shares could decline.

Our lack of insurance could expose us to significant costs and business disruption.

The health and wellness industry in Malaysia is a mature market. We currently do not have any product liability or disruption insurance to cover our operations in Malaysia or overseas, which, based on public information available to us relating to Malaysia-based health and wellness companies, is consistent with customary industry practice in Malaysia. We have determined that the costs of insuring for these risks and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. If we suffer any losses, damages or liabilities in the course of our business operations, we may not have adequate insurance coverage to provide sufficient funds to cover any such losses, damages or product claim liabilities. Therefore, there may be instances when we will sustain losses, damages and liabilities because of our lack of insurance coverage, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

A decline in general economic condition could lead to reduced consumer demand and could negatively impact our business operation and financial condition, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our operating and financial performance may be adversely affected by a variety of factors that influence the general economy. Consumer spending habits, including spending for health-related products and services we sell, are affected by, among other things, prevailing economic conditions, levels of unemployment, salaries and wage rates, prevailing interest rates, income tax rates and policies, consumer confidence and consumer perception of economic conditions. In addition, consumer purchasing patterns may be influenced by consumers’ disposable income. In the event of an economic slowdown, consumer spending habits could be adversely affected and we could experience lower net sales than expected on a quarterly or annual basis which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be adversely affected by the performance of third-party contractors.

We engaged third-party contractors to carry out logistics services. We endeavor to engage third-party companies with a strong reputation and track record, high performance reliability and adequate financial resources. However, any such third-party contractor may still fail to provide satisfactory logistics services at the level of quality or within the timeframe required by us or our customers. While we generally require our logistics contractors to fully reimburse us for any losses arising from delay in delivery or non-delivery, our results of operation and financial condition may be adversely affected if any of the losses are not borne by them. If the performance of any third-party contractor is not satisfactory, we may need to replace such contractor or take other remedial actions, which could adversely affect the cost structure and delivery schedule of our products and services and thus have a negative impact on our reputation, financial position and business operations. In addition, as we expand our business into overseas markets, there may be a shortage of third-party contractors that meet our quality standards and other selection criteria in such locations and, as a result, we may not be able to engage a sufficient number of high-quality third-party contractors in a timely manner, which may adversely affect our delivery schedules and delivery costs and hence our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

We may need additional capital, and financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

There is no guarantee that in the future we will generate enough profits to support our business. Although we believe that our anticipated cash flows from operating activities together with cash on hand will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business for the next twelve months, we cannot assure you this will be the case. We may need additional cash resources in the future if we experience changes in business conditions or other developments. We may also need additional cash resources in the future if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, capital expenditure or similar actions. If we determine that our cash requirements exceed the amount of cash and cash equivalents we have on hand at the time, we may seek to issue equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. The issuance and sale of additional equity would result in further dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operating covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Adverse developments in our existing areas of operation could adversely impact our results of business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our operations are focused on utilizing our sales efforts which are principally located in Malaysia. As a result, our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition depend upon the demand for our products in Malaysia. Due to the lack of broad diversification in industry type and geographic location, adverse developments in our current segment of the industry, or our existing areas of operation, could have a significantly greater impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition than if our operations were more diversified.

An overall decline in the health of the economy and other factors impacting consumer spending, such as natural disasters, outbreak of viruses, illnesses, infectious diseases, contagions and the occurrence of unforeseen epidemics may affect consumer purchases, reduce demand for our products and materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business depends on consumer demand for our products and, consequently, is sensitive to a number of factors that influence consumer confidence and spending, including but not limited to, general current and future economic and political conditions, consumer disposable income, recession and fears of recession, unemployment, minimum wages, availability of consumer credit, consumer debt levels, interest rates, tax rates and policies, inflation, war and fears of war, inclement weather, natural disasters, terrorism, active shooter situations, outbreak of viruses, illnesses, infectious diseases, contagions and the occurrence of unforeseen epidemics (including the outbreak of the coronavirus and its potential impact on our financial results) and consumer perceptions of personal well-being and security.

In general, our business could be adversely affected by the effects of epidemics, pandemic or, including, but not limited to, the COVID-19, avian influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), the influenza A virus, Ebola virus, severe weather conditions such as flood or hazardous air pollution, or other outbreaks. In response to an epidemic, severe weather conditions, or other outbreaks, government and other organizations may adopt regulations and policies that could lead to severe disruption to our daily operations, including temporary closure of our offices and other facilities. These severe conditions may cause us and/or our partners to make internal adjustments, including but not limited to, temporarily closing down business, limiting business hours, and setting restrictions on travel and/or visits with clients and partners for a prolonged period of time. Various impact arising from a severe condition may cause business disruption, resulting in material, adverse impact to our financial condition and results of operations.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

We earn revenues, pay expenses, own assets and incur liabilities in countries using currencies other than the U.S. dollar, including Malaysian Ringgit and the Hong Kong Dollar. Because our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate revenues, income and expenses, as well as assets and liabilities, into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect during or at the end of each reporting period. Therefore, increases or decreases in the value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies affect our net operating revenues, operating income and the value of balance sheet items denominated in foreign currencies. We cannot assure you that fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would not materially affect our financial results.

Our business depends on the continued contributions made by Mr. How Kok Choong, as our key executive officer, the loss of who may result in a severe impediment to our business.

Our success is dependent upon the continued contributions made by our CEO and President, Mr. How Kok Choong. We rely on his expertise in business operations when we are developing our business. We have no “Key Man” insurance to cover the resulting losses in the event that any of our officer or directors should die or resign.

If Mr. How Kok Choong cannot serve the Company or is no longer willing to do so, the Company may not be able to find alternatives in a timely manner or at all. This would likely result in a severe damage to our business operations and would have an adverse material impact on our financial position and operating results. To continue as a viable operation, the Company may have to recruit and train replacement personnel at a higher cost. Additionally, if Mr. How Kok Choong joins our competitors or develops similar businesses that are in competition with our Company, our business may also be negatively impacted.

Our future success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified long-term staff to fill management, technology, sales, marketing, and customer services positions. We have a great need for qualified talent, but we may not be successful in attracting, hiring, developing, and retaining the talent required for our success.

If we are not able to achieve our overall long-term growth objectives, the value of an investment in our Company could be negatively affected.

We have established and publicly announced certain long-term growth objectives. These objectives were based on, among other things, our evaluation of our growth prospects, which are generally driven by the sales potential of many product types, some of which are more profitable than others, and on an assessment of the potential price and product mix. There can be no assurance that we will realize the sales potential and the price and product mix necessary to achieve our long-term growth objectives.

Risks Related to our Industry

Our business and reputation may be affected by product liability claims, litigation, customer complaints, product tampering, food safety issues, food-borne illnesses, health threats, quality control concerns or adverse publicity relating to our products. Product liability insurance of our supplier may not cover our liability sufficiently or at all.

Like other consumer product manufacturers, sale of our products involves an inherent risk of our products being found to be unfit for consumption or cause illness. Products may be rendered unfit for consumption due to raw materials or product contamination or degeneration, presence of microbials, illegal tampering of products by unauthorized third parties or other problems arising during the various stages of the procurement, production, transportation and storage processes. The occurrence of such problems may result in customer complaints, fines, penalties or adverse publicity causing serious damage to our reputation and brand, as well as product liability claims, other legal disputes and loss of revenues. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to recall our products. Even if a situation does not necessitate a product recall, we cannot assure you that product liability claims or other legal disputes will not be asserted against us as a result. Product liability insurance of our supplier may not cover our liability sufficiently or at all and will not cover liability that arises out of our default such as mishandling, poor storage condition and/or contamination of the products by us. As a result, a product liability or other judgment against us, or a product recall, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our business is susceptible to food-borne illnesses. We cannot assure you that we are able to effectively prevent all diseases or illnesses caused by our products or contamination of our products. Furthermore, our reliance on third-party product suppliers means that food-borne illness incidents could be caused by our suppliers outside of our control. New illnesses may develop in the future, or diseases with long incubation periods could arise that could give rise to claims or allegations on a retroactive basis. Reports in the media of instances of food-borne illnesses or health threats of our products or any of their major ingredients could adversely and significantly affect our sales, and have significant negative impact on our results of operations. This risk exists even if it were later determined that the illness or health threat in fact was not caused by our products.

In addition, adverse publicity about health and safety concerns, whether unfounded or not, may discourage consumers from buying our products. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused personal injury or illness could adversely affect our reputation and our corporate and brand image. If consumers were to lose confidence in our brand and reputation, we could suffer long-term or even permanent declines in our sales and results of operation. The amount of negative news, customers complaints and claims against us may also be very costly and may divert our management’s attention from our business operation.

We operate in a highly competitive market. If we do not compete effectively, our prospects, operating results, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

The health and wellness market in Malaysia is a mature and a highly competitive market, with companies offering a variety of competitive products and services. We expect competition in our market to intensify in the future as new and existing competitors introduce new or enhanced products and services that are potentially more competitive than our products and services. The health and wellness market has a multitude of participants in the domestic market, including, but not limited, to retail health supplement providers, pharmaceutical companies, and network marketing company which supply health supplement products, such as Elken Group, USANA Group, NHF Group, Young Living, Jeunesse Global Holdings LLC, USA, Shaklee Corporation, VASAYO LLC, Amway Corporation, Sami Direct, Kyäni, Inc., Melaleuca, Inc.

We believe many of our competitors and potential competitors may have significant competitive advantages, including but not limited to, longer operating histories, ability to leverage their sales efforts and marketing expenditures across a broader portfolio of products and services, larger and broader customer bases, more established relationships with a larger number of suppliers, greater brand recognition, ability to leverage stores which they may operate, and greater financial, research and development, marketing, distribution, and other capabilities and resources than we do. Our competitors and potential competitors may also be able to develop products and services that are equal or more superior to ours, achieve greater market acceptance of their products and services, and increase sales by utilizing different distribution channels than we do. Some of our competitors may aggressively discount their products in order to gain market share, which could result in pricing pressures, reduced profit margins, lost market share, or a failure to grow market share for us. If we are not able to compete effectively against our current or potential competitors, our prospects, operating results, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Malaysia

Developments in the social, political, regulatory and economic environment in Malaysia may have a material adverse impact on us.

Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by social, political, regulatory and economic developments in Malaysia. Such political and economic uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks of war, terrorism, nationalism, nullification of contract, changes in interest rates, imposition of capital controls and methods of taxation.

Negative developments in Malaysia’s socio-political environment may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The Malaysian economy registered modest growth of approximately 5.1 % and 3.0% in December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia. Although the overall Malaysian economic environment (in which we predominantly operate) appears to be positive, there can be no assurance that this will continue to prevail in the future. Economic growth is determined by countless factors, and it is extremely difficult to predict with any level of absolute certainty.

We are subject to foreign exchange control policies in Malaysia.

The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to us may be restricted by the foreign exchange control policies in the countries where we operate. For example, there are foreign exchange policies in Malaysia which support the monitoring of capital flows into and out of the country in order to preserve its financial and economic stability. The foreign exchange policies are administered by the Foreign Exchange Administration, an arm of Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”), the central bank of Malaysia. The foreign exchange policies monitor and regulate both residents and non-residents. Under the current Foreign Exchange Administration rules issued by BNM, non-residents are free to repatriate any amount of funds from Malaysia in foreign currency other than the currency of Israel at any time (subject to limited exceptions), including capital, divestment proceeds, profits, dividends, rental, fees and interest arising from investment in Malaysia, subject to any withholding tax. In the event BNM or any other country where we operate introduces any restrictions in the future, we may be affected in our ability to repatriate dividends or other payments from our subsidiaries in Malaysia or in such other countries. Since we are a holding company and rely principally on dividends and other payments from our subsidiaries for our cash requirements, any restrictions on such dividends or other payments could materially and adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

Economic, market and political developments in the countries where we operate could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

As with all organizations that seek to reduce business risks via geographical expansion, the economic, market and political conditions in other countries, particularly emerging market conditions in Southeast Asia, could have an influence on our business. Any widespread global financial instability or a significant loss of investor confidence in emerging market economies may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects or reputation.

Examples of such external factors or conditions that are outside our control include, but are not limited to the following:

• general economic, political and social conditions in Southeast Asian markets;
• consumer spending patterns in our key markets;
• currency and interest rate fluctuations;
• international events and circumstances such as wars, terrorist attacks, natural disasters and political instability; and
• changes in legal regimes and governmental regulations, such as licensing and approvals, taxation, duties and tariffs, in key markets and abroad.

For example, the global financial markets experienced significant disruptions in 2008 and the United States, Europe and other economies went into recession. The recovery from the lows of 2008 and 2009 was uneven and the global economy has continued to face new challenges. There is considerable uncertainty over the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies that have been adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies, including the United States. For example, in 2013, the Federal Reserve Bank in the United States announced the tapering of its bond-buying program which led to a high degree of volatility in equity markets and substantial devaluations in the currencies of many emerging economies, including markets where we operate. Economic conditions in the countries where we operate might be sensitive to global economic conditions, as well as changes in domestic economic and political policies and the expected or perceived overall economic growth rate in emerging markets. Furthermore, the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 was first reported in December 2019 in Wuhan, China.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

Volatility in our shares price may subject us to securities litigation.

The market for our shares may have, when compared to seasoned issuers, significant price volatility and we expect that our share price may continue to be more volatile than that of a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.

We may never be able to pay dividends and are unlikely to do so.

To date, we have not paid, nor do we intend to pay in the foreseeable future, dividends on our common stock, even if we become profitable. Earnings, if any, are expected to be used to advance our activities and for working capital and general corporate purposes, rather than to make distributions to stockholders. Since we are not in a financial position to pay dividends on our common stock and future dividends are not presently being contemplated, investors are advised that return on investment in our common stock is restricted to an appreciation in the share price. The potential or likelihood of an increase in share price is uncertain.

In addition, under Nevada law, we may only pay dividends subject to our ability to service our debts as they become due and provided that our assets will exceed our liabilities after the dividend. Our ability to pay dividends will therefore depend on our ability to generate sufficient profits.

Shareholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of securities.

Wherever possible, our board of directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of shares of our common stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock or other securities. On February 5, 2025, the Company obtained approval from stockholders in a special meeting to increase number of authorized common stock from 50,000,000 to 500,000,000 and to issue 46,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.0001 per share. On February 28, 2025, the Company signed shares subscription agreement with 18 subscribers to issue 46,000,000 shares of common stock at the price of $0.50 per share (the “Private Placement”). Immediately prior to the Private Placement, the Company had a total of 4,005,381 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Immediately after the closing of the Private Placement, the Company is expected to have a total of 50,005,381 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our stockholders. We may issue additional shares of common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock may create downward pressure on the trading price of the common stock. We expect we will need to raise additional capital in the near future to meet our working capital needs, and there can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with these capital-raising efforts, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price you paid for your stock.

We are a “smaller reporting company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are currently a “smaller reporting company”, meaning that we are not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer, or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company and annual revenues of less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. In the event that we are still considered a “smaller reporting company,” at such time as we cease being an “emerging growth company,” we will be required to provide additional disclosure in our SEC filings. However, similar to an “emerging growth companies”, “smaller reporting companies” are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings; are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting; and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, only being required to provide two years of audited financial statements in annual reports. Decreased disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as a “smaller reporting company” may make it harder for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects.

We currently lease 5 properties ranging from approximately 2,500 to 11,900 square feet in Kuala Lumpur and Ipoh which primarily carry out the functions of a staff accommodation, warehouse, office, service centers and sales branches in different regions of Malaysia.

We know of no materials, active or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceedings or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any beneficial shareholder are an adverse party or has a material interest averse to us.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Report.

Certain statements in this Report constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, regarding, among other things, (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategy, (c) anticipated trends in our industry, (d) our future financing plans, and (e) our anticipated needs for, and use of, working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend,” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Overview

Agape ATP Corporation is a company that provides health and wellness products and health solution advisory services to our clients. The Company primarily focus its efforts on attracting customers in Malaysia. Its advisory services center on the “ATP Zeta Health Program”, which is a health program designed to effectively prevent diseases caused by polluted environments, unhealthy dietary intake and unhealthy lifestyles, and promotion of health. The program aims to promote improved health and longevity in our clients through a combination of modern medicine, proper nutrition and advice from skilled nutritionists and/or dieticians.

In order to strengthen the Company’s supply chain, on May 8, 2020, the Company has successfully acquired approximately 99.99% of ASL, with the goal of securing an established network marketing sales channel that has been established in Malaysia for the past 15 years.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include allowance for inventories obsolescence, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for deferred tax assets, allowance for estimation of coupon redemption and the assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative financial instruments. Following are the methods and assumptions used in determining our estimates.

Allowance for inventories obsolescence

Management reviews inventory on hand for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable items, as compared to future demand requirements and the shelf life of the various products. Based on the review, the Company records inventory write-downs, when necessary, when costs exceed expected net realizable value. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognize an inventory write-downs of $7,081 and $0, respectively.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment, and intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flows the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is identified, the Company would reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flows approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no impairment of long-lived assets was recognized.

Allowance for deferred tax assets

The Company conducts much of its business activities in Malaysia and Hong Kong and is subject to tax in each of these jurisdictions. Significant estimates are required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Deferred tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognized as management considers it is more likely than not that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences or tax losses can be utilized. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such differences will impact the recognition of deferred tax assets and taxation in the periods in which such estimate is changed.

Allowance for expected credit loss

The Company estimates and records an allowance for its expected credit loss related to its accounts receivable. Credit losses are determined by Current Estimate of Expected Credit Losses model in accordance with Topic 326 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. For accounts receivable, the Company considers the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of the Company’s customers based on ongoing credit evaluations, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognize an allowance for expected credit loss of $32,857 and $542, respectively.

Allowance for estimation of coupon redemption

The Company offers various coupon programs to customers, which result in the potential redemption of coupons against future purchases. The estimation of coupon redemption requires assumptions. This estimate is based on historical redemption patterns, customer behaviour trends, and the terms and conditions of the coupon programs. Management considers factors such as the type of coupon, the period of validity that could influence redemption rates. The Company makes estimates about the likelihood and timing of coupon redemptions, which may vary based on changing customer behaviour and economic conditions. If the actual redemption rate differs from the estimated rate, it could impact the redemption liability and related expenses in future periods. The allowance for coupon redemption is regularly reviewed and adjusted as more information becomes available to ensure that it reflects the expected redemption accurately.

Assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative financial instruments

The Company issued Representative’s Warrants to purchase up to 115,500 shares of common stock at $4.4 per share, dated October 13, 2023, to Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc. The warrants shall be exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, commencing from October 13, 2023 (i.e. the date of issuance) and expiring on October 10, 2028. The Company used Black-Scholes-Merton Model to estimate the fair value of the Warrants and recognized as equity. No subsequent measurement has been performed as the Warrants are classified as equity.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue recognition

On July 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC Topic 606). The core principle underlying the revenue recognition of this ASU allows the Company to recognize revenue that represents the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This will require the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. The Company’s revenue streams are recognized at a point in time for the Company’s sale of health and wellness products.

The ASU requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when the contract is committed in writing, the rights of the parties, including payment terms, are identified, the contract has commercial substance and consideration is probable of substantially collection.

Sales of Skin Care, Health and Wellness products

- Performance obligations satisfied at a point in time

The Company derives its revenues from sales contracts with its customers with revenues being recognized when control of the skin care, health and wellness products are transferred to its customer at the Company’s office or shipment of the goods. The revenue is recorded net of estimated discounts and return allowances. Products are given 60 days for returns or exchanges from the date of purchase. Historically, there were insignificant sales returns.

Under the Company’s network marketing business, the Company issues product coupons to members and distributors when these customers made purchases above certain thresholds set by the Company. Depending on the type of product coupons issued, the coupons carry varying values and can be used by the customers for reduction in the transaction price of product purchases within the coupon validity period. The value of the product coupons issued is recorded as a reduction of the Company’s revenue account upon issuance; the corresponding amount credited to the customer deposits account. Amounts in customer deposits will be reversed when the coupons are used. The Company’s coupons have a validity period of between six and twelve months. If the Company’s customers did not utilize the coupons after the validity period, the Company would recognize the forfeiture of the originated sales value of the coupons as net revenues.

Sales of products for the provision of complementary health therapies

• Performance obligations satisfied at a point in time

Products for the provision of complementary health therapies are predominantly Chinese herbs in different forms, processed or otherwise, for prescriptions for treating non-communicable diseases.

The Company based on the health screening test report to prescribe the products for the provision of complementary health therapies, the Company deliver the products to the customers during the consultation session.

Provision of Health and Wellness services

• Performance obligations satisfied at a point in time

The Company carries out its Wellness program, where the Company’s products are bundled with health screening test. The health screening test is considered as separate performance obligations. The promises to deliver the health screening test report is separately identifiable, which is evidenced by the fact that the Company provides separate services of delivering the health screening test report.

The Company based on the health screening test contracts with customers, establishes the selling price for the health screening test and place order to the health screening center. The Company obtains control of the test report before they are delivered to the customers. The Company analyze the test report, provides consultations to the customers, bundle it with the Company’s products and services depending on the customer’s needs.

The Company derives its revenues from sales contracts with its customers with revenues being recognized when the test reports are completed and delivered to its customers during the consultation session in person.

Sales of products and services for the operations in green energy

• Performance obligations satisfied over time

The Company provides products, technical knowledge and solutions for sustainability and energy savings. The Company delivered the products to the customers and enhances the products that the customer controls. The products that the Company created has no alternative use to the Company. The Company has an enforceable right to receive payment for performance completed to date, the Company recognized revenue based on the percentage of cost incurred.

Fair value of financial instruments

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

The accounting standards define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

• Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
• Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
• Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at face value or cost, which approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rates of interest.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The ASU 2023-09 requires companies to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). The ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02 “Codification Improvements – Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements”. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance, but in most instances the references removed are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. Generally, the amendments in ASU 2024-02 are not intended to result in significant accounting changes for most entities. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”. This ASU requires disclosures of additional information of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, which early adoption permitted.

The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting of this ASU.

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recent issued accounting standards that will have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

Recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-01 “Leases (Topic 842) Common Control Arrangements”. This ASU provides guidance in ASC Topic 842 that Leasehold improvements associated with common control leases should be (i) amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group, regardless of the lease term, as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease, and (ii) accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control through an adjustment to equity if and when the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. The ASU 2023-01 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023.

Foreign exchange risk. Substantially most of our revenues are denominated in the Malaysian Ringgit while most of our expenses are denominated in Malaysian Ringgit, U.S. dollar and Hong Kong Dollar. We do not believe that we currently have any significant direct foreign exchange risk and have not hedged exposures denominated in foreign currencies or any other derivative financial instruments. Although in general, our exposure to foreign exchange risks should be limited, the value of an investment in our Common Stock may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollar and Malaysian Ringgit; and U.S. dollar and Hong Kong Dollar because the value of our business is effectively denominated in Malaysian Ringgit and Hong Kong Dollar, while the Common Stock is traded in U.S. dollars.

Credit risk. Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on the foregoing evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

• Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

35

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

As of December 31, 2024, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, internal controls and procedures over financial reporting were not effective. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, identified the following material weaknesses during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024:

(i) insufficient full-time personnel with appropriate levels of accounting knowledge and experience to monitor the daily recording of transactions, address complex U.S. GAAP accounting issues and to prepare and review financial statements and related disclosures under U.S. GAAP; (ii) lack of a functional internal audit department or personnel that monitors the consistencies of the preventive internal control procedures and lack of adequate policies and procedures in internal audit function to ensure that the Company’s policies and procedures have been carried out as planned.

Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we will prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines, to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity and debt transactions.

To further strengthen the Company’s internal controls, we plan to initiate the following measures going forward:

1. We plan to engage a consulting firm that specializes in compliance and internal controls as a temporary solution to improve the internal control.

2. Once we hire additional employees, we intend to initiate a comprehensive training program and development plan to provide ongoing company-wide trainings regarding internal control and requirements of U.S. GAAP financial statements and related disclosures, with particular emphasis on our accounting staff.

We anticipate that these initiatives will be at least partially, if not fully, implemented by the end of fiscal year 2025.
