NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

May 31, 2024

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Photozou Holdings, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 29, 2014.

Our principal executive offices are located at 4-30-4F, Yotsuya, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, 160-0004, Japan.

The Company has elected November 30^th as its fiscal year end.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Photozou Koukoku. Intercompany transactions are eliminated.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the nine months period, have been made. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year. When used in these notes, the terms “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” mean the Company. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America has been omitted from these statements pursuant to such accounting principles and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2023, included in our Form 10-K.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates and assumptions made by management include going concern, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation allowance on deferred income tax, inventory obsolescence and sales allowance. Actual results in the future could vary from the amounts derived from management’s estimates and assumptions.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

The Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850 (“Related Party Disclosures”). A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company conducts business with its related parties in the ordinary course of business.

Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The Company maintains its books and record in its local currency, Japanese YEN (“JPY”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which its operation is conducted. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations.

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, assets and liabilities of the Company whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. Shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rate at the time of transaction. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of shareholders’ deficit.

Translation of amounts from the local currency of the Company into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates:

	May 31, 2024	May 31, 2023
Current JPY: US$1 exchange rate	156.74	139.77
Average JPY: US$1 exchange rate	150.01	133.88

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME OR LOSS

ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income or loss as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of shareholders’ deficit consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION AND DEFERRED REVENUE

The Company recognizes its revenue in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from contracts with Customers. To determine revenue recognition for agreements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue for used cameras sold is recognized at a point in time when the cameras are delivered to the customer. There are two types of service revenue. Revenue for advertising service is recognized over time when the services are provided to the customers. Revenue for photo session service is recognized at a point of time when service is provided to the customers at the photo session.

Deferred revenue is recorded when consideration is received from a customer prior to the goods or services were delivered. There was no deferred revenue as of May 31, 2024 or November 30, 2023.

Disaggregated revenue by nature of the Company is as follows:

		For the six months	Percentage of	For the six months	Percentage of
		ended	total revenues	ended	total revenues
		May 31, 2024		May 31, 2023

NOTE 3 - 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 recurring net losses. 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.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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

Photozou Koukoku Co., Ltd.’s business operations are primarily focused around the sale of used cameras sold through Amazon USA, photo session services held in Tokyo and Kansai, and online advertising through various channels. On April 17, 2017, Photozou Koukoku obtained a license to operate as a used goods merchant in Japan.

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.

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 May 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 USD as of the exchange rate May 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.

On July 31, 2023, the Company acquired a website (https://photozou.jp/) in consideration of JPY 1 (nil in USD) from a related party, Photozou Co. Ltd., a company controlled by Koichi Ishizuka, CEO, which resulted in the transaction being considered a transfer between entities under common control. The website https://photozou.jp/ is designed for free photo sharing, and may, in addition to other features, offer users the option to store pictures on the website for a nominal fee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance is $13,009 as of May 31, 2024 and $11,562 as of November 30, 2023. 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, and/or White Knight Co., Ltd., an entity controlled by Koichi Ishizuka, 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.

Total Assets

We recorded total assets of $125,445 and $156,413 as of May 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively. The difference between the periods is primarily due to the decrease in inventory at May 31, 2024.

Revenue

We recorded total revenue of $45,859 and $19,814 for the three months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, respectively. The variance between periods is primarily attributable to greater service revenue sold for the three months ended May 31, 2024.

We recorded total revenue of $83,290 and $42,546 for the six months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, respectively. The variance between periods is primarily attributable to greater service revenue sold for the six months ended May 31, 2024.

Net Loss

We recorded a net loss of $72,863 and $69,071 for the three months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, respectively.

We recorded a net loss of $219,208 and $112,530 for the six months ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, respectively. The variance between periods is primarily attributable to greater operating expenses incurred during the six months ended May 31, 2024.

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.

ITEM 4

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of May 31, 2023, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our chief executive officer, with the participation of our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The officers concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to material weaknesses identified below.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: domination of management by a single individual without adequate compensating controls, lack of a majority of outside directors on board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, and lack of an audit committee. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the above evaluation.

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have occurred for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2024, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
