Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including
estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives,
and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements
are based, are "forward-looking statements."
These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words
"believes," "project," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends,"
"strategy," "plan," "may," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will
likely result," and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions
that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to
differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict
results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations
and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to:
changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of
capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting
principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in
evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on
such statements.
Company Overview
Corporate History
Photozou Holdings, Inc., ("Photozou Holdings," or the "Company"), was
incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 29, 2014, with the purposes
to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized
under the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the "DGCL").
The Company was formed by Thomas DeNunzio, our former sole officer and director,
for the purpose of creating a corporation which could be used to consummate a
merger or acquisition.
On January 13, 2017, Thomas DeNunzio sold 8,000,000 shares of our restricted
common stock, which represented all of our issued and outstanding shares at the
time, to Photozou Co., Ltd., a Japan corporation.
The shares were sold for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000. Photozou Co.,
Ltd. is controlled by Koichi Ishizuka, a Japanese citizen. The aforementioned
shares were sold pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended ("Regulation S"). No directed selling efforts were made in the United
States.
On January 13, 2017, Mr. Thomas DeNunzio resigned as our Chief Executive
Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Director, Secretary, and
Treasurer.
On January 13, 2017, Mr. Koichi Ishizuka was appointed as Chief Executive
Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Director, Secretary, and Treasurer.
On January 18, 2017, we changed our name from Exquisite Acquisition, Inc. to
Photozou Holdings, Inc.
Pursuant to our Registration Statement deemed effective on June 20, 2017, the
Company sold a total of 3,037,300 shares of our common stock. The proceeds
totaled $75,933. These shares were sold pursuant to Rule 419.
On May 8, 2018, the Company conducted a stock cancellation of the above
3,037,300 shares and the total funds of $75,933 were returned to investors. The
cancellation of the shares and return of funds was due to the fact that we did
not make an acquisition in the allotted time granted by Rule 419.
On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into and consummated a Stock Purchase
Agreement with Koichi Ishizuka, our President, CEO, and Director. At the closing
of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Koichi Ishizuka transferred to the Company,
10,000 shares of common stock of Photozou Koukoku Co., Ltd., a Japan corporation
("Photozou Koukoku"), which represented all of its issued and outstanding
shares, in consideration of 1,000,000 JPY ($9,190 as of the exchange rate August
31, 2018). The Company has since gained a 100% interest in the issued and
outstanding shares of Photozou Koukoku's common stock and Photozou Koukoku is
now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company and Photozou Koukoku
were under common control at the time of the acquisition.
Photozou Koukoku Co., Ltd. was incorporated under the laws of Japan on March 14,
2017. Currently, Photozou Koukoku is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. The
Company's primary business is focused on online advertising and the sale of used
cameras.
On September 21, 2020 Photozou Co., Ltd our principal controlling shareholder,
entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Koichi Ishizuka, our Sole Officer
and Director. Pursuant to the closing of the Agreement on September 21, 2020,
Photozou Co., Ltd. transferred to Koichi Ishizuka 4,553,200 shares of our common
stock, which represents approximately 56.9% of our issued and outstanding common
stock, in consideration of JPY 6,657,917 (approximately $60,500). Following the
closing of the share purchase transaction, Koichi Ishizuka owns approximately
66.7% interest in the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock.
Photozou Co., Ltd. was and remains owned and controlled entirely by Koichi
Ishizuka, we do not believe that this transaction is deemed to be a change in
control of the Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance is $102,398 as of August 31, 2021. Our cash balance is not
sufficient to fund our limited levels of operations for any period of time. We
have been utilizing and may utilize funds from Koichi Ishizuka, our sole Officer
and Director who has informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for
filing fees, and professional fees. Koichi Ishizuka, however, has no formal
commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to the
company.
Revenues
For the nine months ended August 31, 2021 we generated total revenues in the
amount of $162,372 as opposed to $182,496 for the nine months ended August 31,
2020. From September 2020 to February 2021, few used cameras were sold in the
Japan market in order to prepare for Amazon USA. This is the main reason for the
decline in revenue.
Net Loss
We recorded a net loss of $130,245 and $63,271 for the nine months ended August
31, 2021 and August 31, 2020, respectively. The increase in net loss is
attributed to the increase of operating expenses.
Impact of COVID-19
Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected businesses of all kinds.
It is possible that the pandemic may hinder our own operations, resulting in
lesser or no future revenues. It might also affect our means to purchase used
cameras, as many businesses are closed, or operations are limited.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on a basis of
accounting assuming that the Company is a going concern that contemplates
realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The Company is in the early stage of operations and has net loss from
inception and negative cash flows. These factors raise substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will offer
noncash consideration and seek equity lines as a means of financing its
operations. If the Company is unable to obtain revenue-producing contracts or
financing or if the revenue or financing it does obtain is insufficient to cover
any operating losses it may incur, it may substantially curtail or terminate its
operations or seek other business opportunities through strategic alliances,
acquisitions or other arrangements that may dilute the interests of existing
stockholders. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company
will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
