ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Item 1. BUSINESS
Background
Scientific Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on May 30, 2001. Prior to April 2006, the Company had endeavored to develop and manufacture various energy generation devices and energy efficient mechanisms. The current business plan of the Company is to engage in a business of e-commerce platform.
In January 2008, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd., a Hong Kong company. Under the agreement, a joint venture company, Kabond Investments Ltd (the “JVC”), was established in Hong Kong, and the Company invested $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.09 million) into the JVC for 72% of the JVC’s capital shares, and China Resources Development Group Ltd., jointly with its partner, invested $15.4 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $1.98 million) into the JVC to receive 28% of the JVC’s capital shares. In December 2008, all equity interest of the JVC owned by the Company was sold to a third party for $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5,109,743).
In January 2009, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PDI Global Limited (a British Virgin Islands corporation, “PDI”), entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd. Under the agreement, the Company agreed to invest $43,040,000 Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.55 million) into a joint venture company Sinoforte Ltd. in Hong Kong (“Sinoforte”). The Company got 80% of Sinoforte's capital shares, and China Resources invested $10,222,000 Hong Kong dollars, approximately $1,318,967, and another investor invested $538,000 Hong Kong dollars, or approximately $69,419, into Sinoforte for 19% and 1% of Sinoforte's capital shares, respectively. The main business of Sinoforte was trading mineral products such as graphite produced in China. In June 2009 and September 2009, respectively, China Resources and the other minority investor cancelled their investments in Sinoforte, and the full amount of their original investments was returned. As a result, Sinoforte became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDI. In December 2020, PDI sold all the shares of Sinoforte to the Company at consideration of HK$10.
The Company has not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
Business
The Company conducts business primarily through its wholly owned subsidiary Sinoforte Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation.
Prior to August 2011, the Company operated primarily as a merchant, buying and selling various type and grades of graphite, such as medium- and high-carbon graphite, high-purity graphite, micro-powder graphite and expandable graphite. As a merchant, the Company acted as a reseller. It purchased graphite products in bulk, primarily from graphite producers, and resold them, either in bulk or in smaller quantities (in either case, without further processing), to various small and mid-sized customers.
In August 2011, the Company started to engage in a business of e-commerce platform. Currently the Company is in the process of developing a website, “Makeliving.com” ("Makeliving"), which provides an e-commerce platform, where registered members can exchange goods and services. Makeliving will act both as a platform and as a conduit between those (individuals or companies) who desire to acquire goods and services and those (individuals or companies) who desire to offer goods and services. Makeliving plans to charge a certain percentage fee for the transactions. However, no revenues have been generated. The activities of the website are currently suspended.
On January 23, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Cityhill Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Elate Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong listed public company, pursuant to which parties agreed to establish a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”). Each party owns 50% equity interest in the Joint Venture respectively.
The Venture Joint, with the support of blockchain technology, is to provide global trading service of physical gold for global customers. The parties contribute their respective experiences in blockchain technology and marketing. The Company will assist the Joint Venture in exploring the North America and Europe markets, while Cityhill will focus on the Asian markets.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
Risk of Health Emergencies and Market Disruption
The occurrence of widespread health emergencies could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The recent outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), which has been identified as a “pandemic”, has resulted in decreased economic activity and ongoing health concerns, which have adversely affected the broader global economy. A pandemic typically results in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this may limit access to our facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact our operations and financial conditions but also our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business and shareholders may experience a significant negative impact.
We are not required to provide the information called for in this item due to its status as a Smaller Reporting Company.

Item 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market Information
Our common stock is quoted for trading on the OTC Pink marketplace under symbol "SCGY", and has been traded very thinly and infrequently. Accordingly, we are not including a history of reported trades in the public market through December 31, 2020.
Holders of Our Common Stock
As of December 31, 2020, we had 114,915,852 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by approximately 240 stockholders of record. The number of record holders does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies.
Dividends
We have not paid any cash dividends to date and does not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate that any cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. Our future payment of dividends will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, expansion plans, financial condition and other relevant factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Our retained earnings deficit currently limits our ability to pay dividends.
Penny Stock
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock should our stock ever be traded on a public market. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

Results of Operations
For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2019
Sales
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company generated no sales. Currently the Company is in the process of developing a website, which provides an e-commerce platform, where registered members can exchange goods and services.
Costs of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were nil because there were no sales.
Operating expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company’s operating expenses were $472,963 compared to $523,606 for the year of 2019. The decrease is primarily the result of lower office expenses paid towards business operations in 2020.
Other Income (Expense)
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had $11,203 of interest expense, net, as compared to $7,868 of interest expense for the same period last year. The interest expense in 2020 and 2019 is related to notes payable issued in 2018 and 2019. The Company received $22,647 of subsidy from Hong Kong government in 2020 is related to the subsidy from Hong Kong Government for the Employment Support Scheme.
Net Loss
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $461,519, or $(0.004) per share, as compared to a net loss of $544,313, or $(0.005) per share, for the year of 2019.
Going Concern
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had a net loss of $461,519 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and had an accumulated deficit of $9,301,091 as of December 31, 2020. The Company has not yet established an adequate ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease development of operations. Moreover, the Company may be continuously raising capital through the sale of debt and equity securities.
The Company’s ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this stage. If the Company is unsuccessful in its endeavors, it may be forced to cease operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty which may include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
These factors have raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing or achieve profitability. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $14,468 and a working capital deficit of $2,409,805. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company used net cash of $447,682 from its operating activities primarily from our net loss of $461,519, net with depreciation of $980, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $2,800 and a decrease in deposits of $5,533 and an increase accounts payable of $4,524. By comparison, net cash used in operating activities was $520,560 in 2019.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, investing activities was $Nil as compared to $14,185 comprised of purchase of equipment of $1,346 and investment in unconsolidated entity of $12,839 in 2019.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company’s financing activities provided net cash of $375,792, which was comprised of proceeds from issuance of notes payable of $10,936 and proceeds from common stock subscriptions of $364,856 as compared to net proceeds from financing activities of $452,683 comprised of issuance of notes payable of $123,000 and proceeds from common stock subscriptions of $329,683 received in 2019.
Until we are able to generate sufficient liquidity from operations, we intend to continue to fund operations from cash on-hand, and through private debt or equity placements of our securities. Our continued operations will depend on whether we are able to generate sufficient liquidity from operations and/or raise additional capital through such sources as equity and debt financings, collaborative and licensing agreements and strategic alliances. There can be no assurance that additional capital will become available or, if it does, that it will become available on acceptable terms, or that any additional capital we may obtain will be sufficient to meet our long-term needs. We currently have no commitments for any additional capital, both internally and externally.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Contractual Obligations
The Company leases approximately 250 square feet of space in Jersey City, New Jersey under a month-by-month basis at rent of $650 per month. In addition, the Company entered into a two-year lease for office space of approximately 770 square feet in Hong Kong, expiring January 2022 with monthly payments of approximately $4,393 per month.
Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We re-evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently applied. Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Scientific Energy, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Scientific Energy, Inc and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive losses, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 , and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SCIENTIFIC ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2020
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
Scientific Energy, Inc., (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on May 30, 2001. Prior to August 2011, the Company was principally devoted to the buying and selling of various types and grades of graphite, such as medium- and high-carbon graphite, high-purity graphite, micro-powder graphite and expandable graphite. In August 2011, the Company decided to engage in a business of e-commerce platform. Currently the Company is in the process of developing a website, which provides an e-commerce platform, where registered members can exchange goods and services.
On March 28, 2006, the Company set up a wholly owned subsidiary, PDI Global Limited (“PDI”), which was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in order to engage in a business of e-commerce platform.
In January 2008, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd., a Hong Kong company. Under the agreement, a joint venture company, Kabond Investments Ltd (the “JVC”), was established in Hong Kong, and the Company invested $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.09 million) into the JVC for 72% of the JVC’s capital shares, and China Resources Development Group Ltd., jointly with its partner, invested $15.4 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $1.98 million) into the JVC to receive 28% of the JVC’s capital shares. In December 2008, all equity interest of the JVC owned by the Company was sold to a third party for $39.6 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5,109,743).
In January 2009, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PDI, entered into a joint venture agreement with China Resources Development Group Ltd. Under the agreement, the Company agreed to invest $43,040,000 Hong Kong dollars (approximately $5.55 million) into a joint venture company Sinoforte Ltd. in Hong Kong (“Sinoforte”). The Company got 80% of Sinoforte's capital shares, and China Resources invested $10,222,000 Hong Kong dollars, approximately $1,318,967, and another investor invested $538,000 Hong Kong dollars, or approximately $69,419, into Sinoforte for 19% and 1% of Sinoforte's capital shares, respectively. The main business of Sinoforte was trading mineral products such as graphite produced in China. In June 2009 and September 2009, respectively, China Resources and the other minority investor cancelled their investments in Sinoforte, and the full amount of their original investments was returned. As a result, Sinoforte became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDI. On December 8, 2020, PDI sold all the shares of Sinoforte to the Company at consideration of HK$10.
On February 28, 2012, the Company set up a wholly-owned subsidiary, Makeliving Ltd., which was incorporated in the Cayman Islands in order to engage in a business of e-commerce platform.
On January 23, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Cityhill Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of South Sea Petroleum Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong listed public company, pursuant to which parties agreed to establish a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”). Each party owns 50% equity interest in the Joint Venture respectively.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, and the results of its operations and its cash flows. Operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues since 2011 and is unlikely to generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations. The management will seek to raise funds from shareholders.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the financial position and the results of operations of the Company and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Makeliving, Ltd., PDI and Sinoforte.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenue is recorded.
The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or services have not been rendered or are subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or services have been rendered or no refund will be required.
Revenues on the sale of products, net of estimated costs of returns and allowance, are recognized at the time products are shipped to customers, legal title has passed, and all significant contractual obligations of the Company have been satisfied. Products are generally sold on open accounts under credit terms customary to the geographic region of distribution. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the customers and generally does not require collateral to secure the accounts receivable.
The Company is exploring web based e-commerce to bring buyers and sellers together recognizing revenue as commissions on closed transactions.
Segment information
ASC 280-10 establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. All sales and substantial assets of the Company are in China. The Company applies the management approach to the identification of our reportable operating segments as provided in accordance with ASC 280-10. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to a concentration of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable. Generally, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents in interest-bearing accounts may exceed FDIC insurance limits. The financial stability of these institutions is periodically reviewed by senior management.
As of December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company maintained Nil and $51,372 in foreign bank accounts not subject to FDIC coverage
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits held by banks.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 220-10, Comprehensive Income (“ASC 220-10”) which establishes standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. ASC 220-10 requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company translates the foreign currency consolidated financial statements into US Dollars (“USD”) using the year or reporting period-end or average exchange rates in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”). Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries were translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect for the periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements were presented in US Dollars except as other specified.
The cumulative translation adjustment is included in the accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) within stockholders’ equity (deficit). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.
The exchange rates used to translate amounts in HKD into US Dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements were as follows:
December 31, 2020
December 31, 2019
Exchange rate on balance sheet dates
USD : HKD exchange rate
7.7536
7.7889
Year ended December 31, 2020
Year Ended December 31, 2019
Average exchange rate for the period
USD : HKD exchange rate
7.7561
7.8350
Property, plant and equipment
The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Office equipment
3 years
Furniture and fixtures
3 years
Vehicles
4 years
The Company evaluates the carrying value of items of property, plant and equipment to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying value of an item of property, plant and equipment is considered impaired when the projected undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset are less than its carrying value. The Company measures impairment based on the amount by which the carrying value of the respective asset exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined primarily using the projected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This topic does not require any new fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 -
Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 -
Other inputs that is directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 -
Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings Per Share (‘EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year plus potential dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants.
The effect of stock options on diluted EPS is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase the Company's common stock at the average market price during the period. The Company has no stock options, warrants or other potentially dilutive instruments outstanding at December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company entered into a JV agreement with an independent third party, to form a JV company. The joint venture agreement provides the Company with only the rights to the assets and obligation for the liabilities of the joint arrangement resting primarily with the JV. In adopting ASC Topic 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), the Company’s investment in joint venture is accounted for using the equity method.
Lease liabilities
In adopting ASC Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842), the Company has elected the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permit it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements; the latter is not applicable to the Company. In addition, the Company elected not to apply ASC Topic 842 to arrangements with lease terms of 12 month or less. In determining the length of the lease term to its long-term lease, the Company determined it did not have an option to extend either lease.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). The amendments in this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company did not modify any material contracts due to reference rate reform during fiscal 2020. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact this guidance will have on financial statements for all future transactions affected by reference rate reform during the time permitted.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). The FASB issued this update as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also improve consistent application of other areas by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2022 and early adoption is permitted. Certain amendments of this ASU may be adopted on a retrospective basis, modified retrospective basis or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which establishes ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The ASU revises the measurement of credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost from an incurred loss methodology to an expected loss methodology. The ASU affects trade receivables, debt securities, net investment in leases, and most other financial assets that represent a right to receive cash. Additional disclosures about significant estimates and credit quality are also required. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. This ASU clarifies that receivables from operating leases are accounted for using the lease guidance and not as financial instruments. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Targeted Transition Relief, which amends ASC 326. This ASU provides an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans ("ASU 2018-14"), which updates the standard to remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this new standard and does not believe that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, which provides narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard, and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which addressed implementation issues related to the new lease standard. These and certain other lease-related ASUs have generally been codified in ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 supersedes the lease accounting requirements in ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”). ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. Under ASC 842, leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The standard also requires disclosures around the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted the new standard since January 1, 2019.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has generated a net loss of $461,519 and an accumulated deficit of $9,301,091 as of December 31, 2020. The Company also experienced insufficient cash flows from operations and will be required continuous financial support from the shareholders. The Company will need to raise capital to fund its operations until it is able to generate sufficient revenue to support the future development. Moreover, the Company may be continuously raising capital through the sale of debt and equity securities.
The Company’s ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this stage. If the Company is unsuccessful in its endeavors, it may be forced to cease operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty which may include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
These factors have raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing or achieve profitability. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between consolidated financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company's realized net taxable income which offset existing deferred tax assets relating to net operating losses, was offset further (100%) by the valuation allowance. Other temporary differences are expected to be immaterial. Therefore there were no expected income taxes, either current or deferred, reflected in the income statement.
At December 31, 2020, the Company has available for U.S. federal income tax purposes a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5,720,000, expiring within 20 years, that may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history of the Company; it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.
Due to possible significant changes in the Company's ownership, the future use of its existing net operating losses may be limited. Components of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020 are as follows. All or a portion of the remaining valuation allowance may be reduced in future years based on an assessment of earnings sufficient to fully utilize these potential tax benefits.
The Company and its subsidiaries file separate income tax returns.
The United States of America
Scientific Energy, Inc. is incorporated in the State of Utah in the U.S., and is subject to a gradual U.S. federal corporate income tax of 21%. The State of Utah does not impose any corporate state income tax. As of December 31, 2020, future net operation losses of approximately $0.10 million are available to offset future operating income through 2040.
British Virgin Islands
PDI Global Limited and Makeliving Limited are incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Under the current laws of the British Virgin Islands, PDI Global Limited and Makeliving Limited are not subjected to tax on income or capital gains.
Hong Kong
Sinoforte Limited is incorporated in Hong Kong and Hong Kong’s profits tax rate is 8.25% for the first HK$2 million of profits of qualifying corporations, and profits above HK$2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. Sinoforte Limited did not earn any income that was derived in Hong Kong for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and therefore, Sinoforte Limited was not subjected to Hong Kong profits tax.
At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the significant components of the deferred tax (assets) liabilities are summarized below:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
As used herein, the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms issued by the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and its principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting
The management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over our financial reporting.
The term internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the issuer's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
(1) Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer;
(2) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and
(3) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
To evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, we have adopted the framework prescribed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO-1992) and the related guidance provided in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies, also issued by COSO.
Based on our evaluation of our internal controls as of December 31, 2020, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective.
(c) Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
(d) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Item 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Directors and Executive Officers
The following table sets forth the information about our sole director and executive officer:
Name
Age
Positions Held
Stanley Chan
President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Director
Mr. Stanley Chan has been a Director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and Chairman of the Company since May 2006. Mr. Chan has more than ten years of experience in import-export business and financial investment.
Significant Employees
There are no significant employees other than our executive officer.
Family Relationships
None of our directors, executive officers, or key employees is related by blood, marriage, or adoption to any other director, executive officer, or other key employees. To our knowledge, there are no arrangements or understanding between any of our officers and any other person, including directors, pursuant to which the officer was selected to serve as an officer.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock. To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders were complied with for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
Committees of the Board of Directors
The Company’s current bylaws require the Board of Directors to have at least three directors. The current Board is composed of one Director. Accordingly, the Company currently does not have standing Nominating, Compensation or Audit Committees, or committees performing similar functions. Nor do we have a written Nominating, Compensation or Audit committee charter. Since there is only one director, our Board of Directors does not believe that it is necessary to set up such committees because it believes that the functions of such committees are being adequately performed by the board of directors and these committees would be the same with one board member in any case.
The Company intends to seek qualified independent directors to serve on the board and ultimately form standing audit, nominating and compensation committees.
Classification of Directors; Board Vacancies
The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock have approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation which provides for the division of our Board of Directors into three classes, each class consisting, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors, with each class having a three-year term. Vacancies on the Board of Directors may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified.
Director and Nominee Qualifications
The Board of Directors is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become Board members and recommending to the Board director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders and
candidates to fill vacancies on the Board. Additionally, in selecting nominees for directors, the Board will review candidates recommended by stockholders using the same general criteria as other candidates.
There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. There are no specific, minimum qualifications that the board of directors believes must be met by a candidate recommended by the board of directors. The entire board of directors will assess candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
At the 2010 Annual Stockholder’s Meeting, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation providing for the classification of the Company’s Board of Directors into three classes, designated Class I, Class II, and Class III, with staggered three-year terms of office.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Company’s board of directors determined that the Company does not have a board member that qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(i) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a board member that qualifies as "independent" as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company believes that, from his business experience in overseeing or assessing the performance of companies, Mr. Stanley Chan is capable of analyzing and evaluating our consolidated financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The Company believes that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome and is not currently warranted. The Company does intend to seek qualified audit committee financial experts.
Director Independence
The Company is presently not required to comply with the director independence requirements of any securities exchange, which requires that a majority of a company's directors be independent. The board of directors of the Company intends to appoint additional members, each of whom will satisfy the director independence guidelines in a manner consistent with the definitions of “independence” set forth in SEC Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
The Company has adopted a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to its directors, principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions.
The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics addresses, among other things, compliance with laws, rules and regulations, conflicts of interest, corporate opportunities, confidentiality, protection and use of company assets, and the reporting process for any illegal or unethical conduct.
Any waiver of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics may only be made by the Board of Directors of the Company and will be promptly disclosed on a Form 8-K.
Compensation Interlocks and Insider Participation
There were no compensation committee or board interlocks among the members of our Board.
Legal Proceedings
Neither we, nor any of our property, are currently subject to any material legal proceedings or other regulatory proceedings, and to our knowledge no such proceedings are contemplated.

In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a holder and the percentage ownership of that holder, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that holder that are currently exercisable or are exercisable within 60 days after the date of the table are deemed outstanding. Those shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or group.

Security Ownership of Management
As of April 14, 2021, no director, nominee and executive officer of the Company owned the security of the Company.

Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required, as of the date of this report, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners are complied with.
