Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Greenpro Capital Corp. and subsidiaries (the ‘Company’) as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the related consolidated statements ofoperationsand comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended of December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, for the years ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred a negative cash flow from operating activities of $1,594,718 and as of December 31, 2023, the Company incurred accumulated deficit of $36,549,095. These condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way of our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosure to which they relate.
Investments and Impairment Valuation
As disclosed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company had equity securities investments in companies without readily determinable market values. The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, which allows an entity to measure investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value using a measurement alternative that measures these securities at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investment of same issuer (the “Measurement Alternative”). The Company made qualitative assessments to evaluate whether the investments are impaired and concluded that the investments are not impaired.
We identified the impairment valuation of investments as a critical audit matter. These investments require significant judgements as they are private entities that are not trade on public exchange and require the Company to assess if there are any changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying amount of an investment may require impairment. There were significant judgments made by management to identify indicators of impairment and determine the fair valuation in the absence of observable prices in an active market which led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in evaluating management’s estimation of the fair value of the investment including management’s assessment of the equity investment financial condition, operating performance, prospects and other company-specific information. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has accounted accumulated impairment losses of $8,231,858 which are significant in values to the financial statements of the Company.
Our audit procedure in this area included the following, among others:
| a) | Inspected Board minutes and other appropriate documentation of authorization to assess whether the transactions were appropriately authorized; |
|---|---|
| b) | Inquired management to obtain an understanding of the Company’s process in evaluating the indication of impairment and fair value assessments; |
| c) | Evaluated the Company’s assessment of impairment by reviewing valuation reports by independent valuers of significant investees; |
| d) | Evaluated the knowledge, skills and ability of the Company’s specialist; and |
| e) | Considered the adequacy of the disclosures in the financial statements in relation to investments. |
