SEC Exempts Micro Enterprises from Audited Financial Statements

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has announced a new exemption for micro enterprises, removing the requirement to submit audited financial statements (AFS) as part of their annual reporting.

Under Memorandum Circular No. 4, Series of 2026, issued on 20 January, both stock and non-stock corporations with total assets or liabilities not exceeding PHP 3 million are now exempt from the mandatory audit.

Previously set at PHP 600,000, the new limit represents a substantial increase in the exemption threshold.

SEC Chairperson Francis Lim stated that the reform aims to make compliance more proportionate for smaller businesses.

Corporations that qualify for the exemption must instead submit financial statements accompanied by a Statement of Management’s Responsibility (SMR).

This document must be signed under oath by the corporation’s key officers, such as the chairman, president, or treasurer, who assume full responsibility for the accuracy of the submission.

The new threshold applies to financial statements for fiscal years ending on or after 31 December 2025.

The exemption does not apply to certain entities vested with public interest, such as public companies, investment houses, and financing companies, which remain subject to stricter reporting requirements.

The post Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 20:26 While meme tokens like Pepe Coin and established networks such as Tron attract headlines, many investors are now searching for projects that combine innovation, revenue-sharing and real-world utility. BlockchainFX ($BFX), currently in presale at $0.024 ahead of an expected $0.05 launch, is quickly becoming one of the best cryptos to buy today. With $7m already secured and a unique model spanning multiple asset classes, it is positioning itself as a decentralised super app and a contender to surpass older altcoins. Early Presale Pricing Creates A Rare Entry Point BlockchainFX’s presale pricing structure has been designed to reward early participants. At $0.024, buyers secure a lower entry price than later rounds, locking in a cost basis more than 50% below the projected $0.05 launch price. As sales continue to climb beyond $7m, each new stage automatically increases the token price. This built-in mechanism creates a clear advantage for early investors and explains why the project is increasingly cited in “best presales to buy now” discussions across the crypto space. High-Yield Staking Model Shares Platform Revenue Beyond its presale appeal, BlockchainFX is creating a high-yield staking model that gives holders a direct share of platform revenue. Every time a trade occurs on its platform, 70% of trading fees flow back into the $BFX ecosystem: 50% of collected fees are automatically distributed to stakers in both BFX and USDT. 20% is allocated to daily buybacks of $BFX, adding demand and price support. Half of the bought-back tokens are permanently burned, steadily reducing supply. Rewards are based on the size of each member’s BFX holdings and capped at $25,000 USDT per day to ensure sustainability. This structure transforms token ownership from a speculative bet into an income-generating position, a rare feature among today’s altcoins. A Multi-Asset Platform…
