Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of December 31, 2022. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below:
Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
We identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that exists as of December 31, 2022. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We determined that we had a material weakness because, due to our small size, and our limited number of personnel, we did not have in place an effective internal control environment with formal processes and procedures, including journal entry processing and review, to allow for a detailed review of accounting transactions that would identify errors in a timely manner.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we have concluded that the audited financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Management’s Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness
With the oversight of senior management, management is working towards remediation of these weaknesses in 2023 including addition of accounting personnel and to evaluate and implement procedures that will strengthen our internal controls. While we believe these measures will remediate the material weakness identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting, there is no assurance that we will demonstrate sufficient improvement that the material weakness will be remediated. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently review our financial reporting controls and procedures.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
This Annual Report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Control Benefits
Pursuant to the terms of our 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, our executives are entitled to certain benefits in the event of a change in control of our Company or the termination of their employment under specified circumstances, including termination following a change in control. We believe these benefits help us compete for and retain executive talent and are generally in line with severance packages offered to executives by the companies in our peer group. We also believe that these benefits would serve to minimize the distraction caused by any change in control scenario and reduce the risk that key talent would leave the Company before any such transaction closes, which could reduce the value of the Company if such transaction failed to close.

Compensation Policies and Practices as They Relate to Our Risk Management
Our compensation program for employees does not create incentives for excessive risk taking by our employees or involve risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. Our compensation has the following risk-limiting characteristics:
·
Our base pay consists of competitive salary rates that represent a reasonable portion of total compensation and provide a reliable level of income on a regular basis, which decreases incentive on the part of our executives to take unnecessary or imprudent risks;
·
Option awards are not tied to formulas that could focus executives on specific short-term outcomes; and
·
Option awards, generally, have multi-year vesting which aligns the long-term interests of our executives with those of our shareholders and, again, discourages the taking of short-term risk at the expense of long-term performance.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Transactions with Related Persons
On July 22, 2020, our Company issued 420,000 shares to Dominic Wells, our Company’s CEO, in exchange for 100% of the membership interest of Onfolio LLC. At the time of the transaction, Mr. Wells was the sole owner of both Onfolio LLC and the Company and as such the transaction is considered a combination of entities under common control under FASB ASC 805. Onfolio LLC owned and operated several domain names that were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet at carryover basis in accordance with ASC 805. Onfolio LLC is a Delaware limited liability company and was formed on May 14, 2019 by the sole member Dominic Wells.
On August 1, 2020, our Company’s CEO assigned his entire 20% interest in Onfolio Groupbuild 1 LLC (“Groupbuild”) in exchange for no consideration.
From time to time, the Company pays expenses directly on behalf of the joint ventures that it manages and receives funds on behalf of the joint ventures. As of December 31, 2022 the balances due from related parties were $54,858 included in current liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company paid the $215,000 related to the Company’s capital contribution for its equity interest in JV IV.
From time to time, the Company’s CEO paid expenses on behalf of the Company, and the Company funded certain expenses to the CEO. Additionally, the Company received its investments in Onfolio JV I, LLC, Onfolio JV II LLC and Onfolio JV III LLC from the CEO. 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. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was owed $36,854 by the entities controlled by the Company’s CEO, and the Company owed the CEO $0 and $480 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Policies and Procedures for Related-Party Transactions
Our Audit Committee considers and approves or disapproves any related person transaction as required by NASDAQ regulations.
Director Independence Standards
Applicable NASDAQ rules require a majority of a listed company’s board of directors to be comprised of independent directors. In addition, the NASDAQ rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent and that audit committee members also satisfy independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Under applicable NASDAQ rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of the listed company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Director Independence
In during March 2023, our Board of Directors undertook a review of the composition of our Board of Directors and its committees and the independence of each of our directors. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that each of Andrew “A.J.” Lawrence, David McKeegan, Robert J. Lipstein, and Mark Schwartz are “independent directors” as defined under applicable NASDAQ Stock Market Rules and Exchange Act Rules. In making such determination, our Board of Directors considered the relationships that each such non-employee director has/had with our Company and all other facts and circumstances that our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining his/her independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director. The one member of our Board of Directors who is not an “independent director” is Dominic Wells as a result of his executive officer status with our Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Onfolio Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Onfolio Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

ONFOLIO HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Onfolio Holdings, Inc. (“Company”) was incorporated on July 20, 2020 under the laws of Delaware to acquire and develop high-growth and profitable internet businesses. The Company primarily earns revenue through website management, digital services, advertising and content placement on its websites, and product sales on certain sites. The Company owns multiple websites and manages websites on behalf of certain unconsolidated entities in which it holds equity interests.
On July 22, 2020, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares to Dominic Wells, the Company’s CEO in exchange for 100% of the membership interest of Onfolio LLC . At the time of the transaction, Dominic Wells was the sole owner of both Onfolio LLC and the Company and as such the transaction was considered a combination of entities under common control under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805. Onfolio LLC owned and operated several domain names that were recognized on the Company’s balance sheet at carryover basis in accordance with ASC 805. The results of operations and cash flows of Onfolio LLC are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the incorporation date of Onfolio LLC in 2019. Onfolio LLC is a Delaware LLC and was formed on May 14, 2019 by the sole member Dominic Wells.
On December 2, 2020, the Company created a wholly-owned subsidiary, Vital Reaction, LLC in the state of Delaware. On April 7, 2021 and September 6, 2021, the Company created wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mighty Deals LLC and Onfolio Crafts LLC, respectively, in the state of Delaware. On November 15, 2021, the Company created a wholly-owned subsidiary, Onfolio Assets, LLC in the state of Delaware.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries and other controlled entities. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are Onfolio LLC, Vital Reaction, LLC, Mighty Deals LLC, Onfolio Assets, LLC, SEO Butler Limited and Onfolio Crafts LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Foreign Currency Translation Gains (Losses)
The Company, and its subsidiaries Onfolio LLC, Vital Reaction, LLC, Mighty Deals LLC, Onfolio Assets, LLC, and Onfolio Crafts LLC, maintain their accounting records in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s operating subsidiary, SEO Butler, is located in the United Kingdom and maintains its accounting records in Great Britain Pounds, which is its functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rate and revenues and expenses are translated by using the average exchange rates for the period. Translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Foreign currency denominated transactions are translated at exchange rates approximating those in effect at the transaction dates.
Investment in Unconsolidated Entities – Equity and Cost Method Investments
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 cost 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.
F-7
Table of Contents
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 adverting revenue.
Variable Interest Entities
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. 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.
Use of Estimates
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 Equivalent
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
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.
Long-lived Assets
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 at least annually 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.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (the “new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method.
Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:
-
Identification of the contract with a customer
-
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
-
Determination of the transaction price
-
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
-
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation
F-8
Table of Contents
The Company primarily earns revenue through website management, digital services, advertising and content placement on its websites, 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. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has $ 48,037 in deferred revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations that are expected to be recognized during fiscal 2023.
The following table presented disaggregated revenue information for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

The Company does not have any single customer that accounted for greater than 10 % of revenue during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of product revenue consists primarily of costs associated with the acquisition and shipment of products being sold through the Company’s online marketplaces, and the costs of its service revenue, which include website content creation costs including contract labor, domain and hosting costs and certain software costs related to website operations.
Cost of Service revenue consists primarily of costs associated with the acquisition and shipment of products being sold through the Company’s online marketplaces, and the costs of its service revenue, which include website content creation costs including contract labor, domain and hosting costs and certain software costs related to website operations.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
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, such as stock options and 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.
Income Taxes
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.
F-9
Table of Contents
Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recorded only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained based on their technical merits. The amount recognized is the amount that represents the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 % likely of being ultimately realized. A liability is recognized for any benefit claimed or expected to be claimed, in a tax return in excess of the benefit recorded in the financial statements, along with any interest and penalty (if applicable) in such excess. The Company has no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022 or 2021.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
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:
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities that are required to be measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
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 any of our capital 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 price of its common stock as the most reasonable indication of fair value.
F-10
Table of Contents
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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2022 the Company had not yet achieved consistent profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity or debt financing and/or related party advances. However there is no assurance of additional funding being available.
NOTE 4 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
SEO Butler Acquisition
On October 6, 2022, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Share Purchase Agreement”) with i2W Ltd, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales (“Seller”), and Jonathan Kiekbusch, Ezekiel Daldy, and Lyndsay Kiekbusch, shareholders of the Seller (collectively, the “Guarantors”), for the purchase of all of the issued share capital (“Sale Shares”) of SEO Butler Limited, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales (“SEO Butler”) (the “SEO Butler Acquisition”).
