Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Comparison of the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, page 40
2.You state that the increase in revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2022
compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021 was partially offset by a decline
in revenue brought on by the sale of your two subsidiaries, Uplus Academy LLC and
Uplus Academy NLV LLC. Please include a quantified discussion of the decrease in
revenue attributable to these subsidiaries. Similar revisions should be made to your
discussion of revenue for fiscal 2022 compared to 2021. Refer to Item 303(b) of
Regulation S-K.
Business
Material Contracts, page 44
3.Please refer to prior comment 12 and expand your disclosure to discuss the material terms
of the Restaurant MSA, Hotel MSA, and Gaming MSA including but not limited to
the term and termination provisions of each agreement, minimum purchase requirements,
and the identity of the customers. Disclose the amount of revenue that you have generated
from each MSA. If you have not yet generated revenue from these MSAs, disclose when
you intend to begin recognizing revenue from each agreement. If you believe you cannot
calculate these amounts, please tell us in detail why you are unable to do so and what
information is unknown at this time.
4.We note your response to prior comment 11 that “pilot programs are run typically close to
cost, and this amount roughly covers [y]our employee travel and product shipping
expenses.” Please clarify any material costs that you incur in operating the pilot programs
that are not covered by the customers in the program. Also, disclose the specific number
of pilot programs that are currently operating rather than stating that you are currently
running pilot programs with "several dozen enterprises."
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Funding Requirements, page 46
5.We note from your revised disclosures in response to prior comment 7 that you believe
your existing cash as of the date of this prospectus will fund your current operating plans
through at least the next twelve months. However, on page 12 you state that your existing
cash together with the net proceeds of this offering will fund your current operating plans
through at least the next twelve months. You also indicate that you will need additional
funding in connection with your continuing operations. In light of these statements and
your negative cash flows from operating activities, please explain further the basis for
your conclusion that your current cash will be sufficient to fund your operations for the
next twelve months, or revise your disclosures as necessary.

Principal Stockholders, page 75
6.We note that you issued 466,000 of your class B common stock to Normanton Tech
PTE. LTD on January 15, 2023 for future service rendered. Please revise the total shares
outstanding and Class B shares on pages 75 and 80 as of March 28, 2023 to reflect this
share issuance.
Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, page F-2
7.As previously noted in our prior comment 14, the report of your independent auditors
states that they are registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with
respect to the company “in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to
our audits.” While your response indicates that you have revised the auditor's report, no
such revisions have been made. Please revise to ensure that the audit opinion complies
with the language in paragraph .09(g) of PCAOB AS 3101.
Statements of Stockholder's Equity, page F-5
8.It appears that you revised your statements of stockholder’s equity in response to prior
comment 15 to retroactively reflect the conversion of member units to common stock in
connection with your incorporation as a Nevada Corporation. Please tell us the guidance
considered in determining retroactive application was required. In addition, ensure that
the re-designation of your common stock into Class A and Class B common stock,
which occurred concurrently with your 4-1 forward stock split, has been retroactively
applied. Refer to ASC 505-10-S99-4.
You may contact Senior Staff Accountant, Megan Akst, at (202) 551-3407 or Kathleen
