SEC Form 10-Q filed by Onfolio Holdings Inc.

We account for our interests in entities in which we are able to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, generally 50% or less ownership interest, under the equity method of accounting. In such cases, our original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted for our share of earnings, losses and distributions. We account for our interests in entities where we have virtually no influence over operating and financial policies under the cost method of accounting. In such cases, our original investments are recorded at the cost to acquire the interest and any distributions received are recorded as income. Our investments in Onfolio JV I, LLC (“JV I”), Onfolio JV II, LLC (“JV II”) and Onfolio JV III, LLC (“JV III”) are accounted for under the cost method. All investments are subject to our impairment review policy. The Company recognized the value of its investments in these joint ventures at carryover basis based on the amount paid by the CEO to the joint venture for Onfolio JV 1 LLC, and agreed to pay the joint venture the contribution for Onfolio JV II LLC and Onfolio JV III LLC at the carryover basis for the amount the interest was acquired for by the CEO.

The current investment in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method consists of a 35.8% interest in Onfolio JV IV, LLC (“JV IV”), which is involved in the acquisition, development and operation of websites to produce advertising revenue. The initial value of an investment in an unconsolidated affiliate accounted for under the equity method is recorded at the fair value of the consideration paid.

Variable interest entities (“VIEs”) are consolidated when the investor is the primary beneficiary. A primary beneficiary is the variable interest holder in a VIE with both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Management concluded that the joint ventures do not qualify as variable interest entities under the requirements of ASC 810, as the joint ventures 1) have sufficient equity to finance its activities; 2) have equity owners that as a group have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest in the business, through the ability to vote on a majority basis to change the managing member of the respective joint ventures, and 3) are structured with substantive voting rights. The Company accounts for its investments in the joint ventures under either the cost or equity method based on the equity ownership in each entity.

The Company, through its subsidiary Onfolio Management LLC, is the manager of Onfolio Agency SPV, LLC (“OA SPV”), and Onfolio Agency SPV 2, LLC (“OA SPV 2”), collectively referred to as “OA SPVs”. The Company does not hold any equity interest in OA SPVs, but will receive 10% of any cash distributions paid by OA SPV, and 20% of any cash distributions paid by OA SPV 2, to its members, when declared, as the management fee. The Company can be removed as manager of OA SPVs through a unanimous vote of the members. The Company determined that the fees it may receive for its role as manager do not constitute a variable interest in OA SPVs and will be accounted for as a revenue contract under ASC 606.

The Company, through its subsidiary RevenueZen, LLC, is the manager of CliAcquire, LLC (“CliAcquire”). The Company holds a 5% members interest in CliAcquire and will receive profit distributions based on its membership interest. The Company can be removed as manager of CliAcquire through a supermajority vote of the members. The Company determined that the investment in CliAcquire will be accounted for as a cost method investment.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. The Company uses significant judgements when making estimates related to the assessment of control over variable interest entities, valuation of deferred tax assets and impairment of long lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with banks and liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Inventories are stated at the lower of actual cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

The Company accounts for goodwill in a purchase business combination as the excess of the cost over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired. Business combinations can also result in the recognition of other intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets, if applicable, occurs over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill, which is not amortized, is tested for impairment on an annual basis (or an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value). When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company elects to perform a qualitative assessment and determines that an impairment is more likely than not, then performance of the quantitative impairment test is required. The quantitative assessment is performed to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. To determine the reasonableness of the estimated fair values, the Company reviews the assumptions to determine that neither the income approach nor the market approach provides significantly different valuations. If the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further work is required and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, a non-cash impairment loss is recognized in the amount of that excess.

When performing the quantitative assessment, key assumptions used in the income approach are updated when the analysis is performed for each reporting unit. The assumptions that have the most significant effect on the fair value calculations are the projected revenue growth rates, future operating margins, discount rates, and terminal values. While the Company uses reasonable and timely information to prepare its discounted cash flow analysis, actual future cash flows or market conditions could differ significantly and could result in future impairment charges related to recorded goodwill balances.

Recently acquired reporting units generally represent a higher inherent risk of impairment, which typically decreases as the businesses are integrated into the enterprise. Negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to its business, actual results significantly below expected results, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets, divestitures, and market capitalization declines may have a negative effect on the fair value of the Company's reporting units.

Indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are separately tested for impairment during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or on an interim basis if an event occurs that indicates the fair value is more likely than not below the carrying value. The Company first qualitatively assesses whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of an indefinite-lived trade name is less than its carrying amount. If necessary, the Company conducts a quantitative assessment using the relief-from-royalty method. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these assets. To the extent the Company determines a fair value, the inputs used represent a Level 3 fair value measurement in the FASB fair value hierarchy given that the inputs are unobservable. The assumptions that have the most significant effect on the fair value calculations are the royalty rates, projected revenue growth rates, discount rates, and terminal values. The royalty rate is determined based on the profitability of the trade name to which it relates and observed market royalty rates. Revenue growth rates are determined after considering current and future economic conditions, recent sales trends, or other variables.

The assessment of fair value for impairment purposes requires significant judgments to be made by management. Although forecasts are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable by management and consistent with the plans and estimates management uses to operate the underlying businesses, there is significant judgment in estimating future operating results. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.

The Company evaluates whether there has been an impairment of identifiable intangible assets with definite useful economic lives, or of the remaining life of such assets, when certain indicators of impairment are present. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost or remaining period of amortization of any asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future gross, undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value or a revision in the remaining amortization period is required.

The Company amortizes acquired definite-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but subject to annual impairment tests. In accordance with ASC 360 “Property Plant and Equipment,” the Company reviews the carrying value of intangibles subject to amortization and long-lived assets for impairment throughout the year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.

The Company follows the guidance of the FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers to all contracts using the modified retrospective method.

Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:

The  Company primarily earns revenue through website management, digital services, advertising and content placement on its online businesses, product sales, and digital product sales. Management services revenue is earned and recognized on a monthly basis as the services are provided. Advertising and content revenue is earned and recognized once the content is presented on the Company’s sites in accordance with the customer requirements. Product sales are recognized at the time the product is shipped to the customer. In certain circumstances, products are shipped directly by a supplier to the end customer at the Company’s request. The Company determined that it is the primary obligor in these contracts due to being responsible for fulfilling the customer contract, establishing pricing with the customer, and taking on credit risk from the customer. The Company recognizes revenue from these contracts with customers on a gross basis. Digital product sales represent electronic content that is transferred to the customer at time of purchase. The Company also earns revenue from online course subscriptions that may have monthly or annual subscriptions. In circumstances when a customer purchases an annual subscription upfront, the Company defers the revenue until the performance obligation has been satisfied.

The revenue from our Eastern Standard subsidiary is derived from website design and implementation contracts and typically span between 4 to 12 months. These contracts continuously transfer control to the customer as all of the work is completed electronically and is transferable to the customer at any point in time. Contract costs include labor, materials, and indirect costs.

We have numerous contracts that are in various stages of completion which require estimates to determine the forecasted costs at completion. Due to the nature of the work left to be performed on many of our contracts, the estimation of total cost at completion for fixed-price contracts is complex, subject to many variables and requires significant judgment. Estimates of total cost at completion are made each period and changes in these estimates are accounted for prospectively as cumulative adjustments to revenue recognized in the current period. If estimates of costs to complete fixed-price contracts indicate a loss, a provision is made through a contract write-down for the total loss anticipated.

Contract modifications are routine in the performance of our contracts. Contracts are often modified to account for changes in the contract specifications or requirements. In most instances, contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct, and, therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract.

Cost of product revenue consists primarily of costs associated with the acquisition and shipment of products being sold through the Company’s online marketplaces.

Cost of Service revenue which includes website content creation costs including contract labor, domain and hosting costs and certain software costs related to website operations.

In accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share,” basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, including 776,360 stock options and 6,119,863 warrants, outstanding during the period. Such common equivalent shares have not been included in the computation of net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, which requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes and allows recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.

The carrying value of short-term instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements, defined as follows:

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” established financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans. It defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. Accordingly, employee share-based payment compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. The valuation of employee stock options is an inherently subjective process, since market values are generally not available for long-term, non-transferable employee stock options. Accordingly, the Black-Scholes option pricing model is utilized to derive an estimated fair value. The Black-Scholes pricing model requires the consideration of the following six variables for purposes of estimating fair value.

Expected Dividends.We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we use an expected dividend yield of zero to calculate the grant-date fair value of a stock option.

Expected Volatility.The expected volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of options granted. We determine the expected volatility solely based upon the historical volatility of a peer group of companies of similar size and with similar operations.

Risk-Free Interest Rate.The risk-free interest rate is the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the option’s expected term on the grant date.

Expected Term.The expected life of stock options granted is based on the actual vesting date and the end of the contractual term.

Stock Option Exercise Price and Grant Date Price of Common Stock. Currently the Company utilizes the most recent cash sale closing price of its common stock as the most reasonable indication of fair value.

The Company accounts for compensation cost for stock option plans and for share based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505, “Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. Share-based awards to non-employees are expensed over the period in which the related services are rendered at their fair value.

The Company manages its operations under two segments for the purpose of assessing performance and making operating decisions – Business to Business (“B2B”) and Business to Consumer (“B2C)”. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its executive management committee. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of the Company using information about combined net income from operations. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the Company as two operating segments, which are the same as its reporting segments.

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising costs were $653,753 and $326,231 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Certain reclassifications have been made to our prior year’s consolidated financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or accumulated deficit.
