PRELIMINARY OFFERING CIRCULAR August 6, 2020, SUBJECT TO COMPLETION
HESTIA INSIGHT INC.
Maximum Offering Amount: 3,980,000 Units by the Company
1,464,500 shares of common stock by the Selling Shareholders
This is our public offering (the “Offering”) of securities of Hestia Insight Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”). We are offering a maximum of 3,980,000 Units (the “Maximum Offering”). Each Unit is comprised of one share of common stock, par value $0.001 (a “Common Stock”), and one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”) to purchase one additional Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $7.50 USD per Warrant Share, subject to certain adjustments, over a 12-month exercise period following the date of issuance of the Warrant. The Units are being offered at a purchase price of $5.00 USD per Unit on a “best efforts” basis. We are also registering 912,500 shares of Common Stock for Tao Deng (552,000 Shares) and Ming Sheng Wang (360,000 Shares) (together, the “Selling Shareholders”). The Selling Shareholders acquired the shares of Common Stock in a share exchange merger transaction when, on May 16, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Hestia Investments, Inc., a Wyoming corporation formed on March 28, 2016, in a 1 for 1 share exchange by exchanging 27,614,200 shares of the Company’s stock for 27,614,200 shares of the Hestia Investments, Inc’s stock held by its shareholders, in a non-public offering under Section 4(a)(2). We are selling our Common Stock through a Tier 2 offering pursuant to Regulation A (Regulation A+) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and we intend to sell the Common Stock either directly to investors or through registered broker-dealers who are paid commissions. The Common Shares and Warrants will be separately transferable following the termination of any transfer hold periods under applicable law. $0.10. This Offering will terminate on the earlier of (i) August 6, 2021, subject to extension for up to one hundred-eighty (180) days in the sole discretion of the Company; or (ii) the date on which the Maximum Offering is sold (in either case, the “Termination Date”). This will be a continuous offering which commences within two calendar days after the qualification date, will be offered on a continuous basis, may continue to be offered for a period in excess of 30 days from the date of initial qualification, and will be offered in an amount that, at the time the offering statement is qualified, is reasonably expected to be offered and sold within two years from the initial qualification date. See “Description of Securities” beginning on page 27 for a discussion of certain items required by Item 14 of Part II of Form 1-A. There is no escrow established for this Offering. We will hold closings upon the receipt of investors’ subscriptions and acceptance of such subscriptions by the Company. If, on the initial closing date, we have sold less than the Maximum Offering, then we may hold one or more additional closings for additional sales, until the earlier of: (i) the sale of the Maximum Offering or (ii) the Termination Date. There is no aggregate minimum requirement for the Offering to become effective, therefore, we reserve the right, subject to applicable securities laws, to begin applying “dollar one” of the proceeds from the Offering towards our business strategy, development expenses, offering expenses and other uses as more specifically set forth in this offering circular (“Offering Circular”). We expect to commence the sale of the Units as of the date on which the offering statement of which this Offering Circular is a part (the “Offering Statement”) is qualified by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in our Common Stock.

Our Business
Hestia Insight Inc. (“Hestia” or the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2003 and was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. until it changed its name on March 27, 2019. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hestia Investments Inc., provides strategic consulting and capital market advisory services for selective micro, small and medium sized companies in the healthcare and biotech sectors.
On November 9, 2018, the Eighth Judicial District Court of Nevada appointed Custodian Ventures, LLC as custodian for Hestia Insight Inc., proper notice having been given to the officers and directors of Hestia Insight Inc. There was no opposition.
On November 13, 2018, the Company filed a certificate of reinstatement with the state of Nevada, and Custodian Ventures, LLC appointed David Lazar as, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.
On May 16, 2019 the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Hestia Investments, Inc. to exchange on a 1 for 1 basis, 27,614,200 shares of the Company’s common stock for 27,614,200 shares of Hestia Investments, Inc. that were owned by 100% of the then-shareholders of Hestia Investments, Inc.
The Company in 2015, when it was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. and prior to its 2019 share exchange with Hestia Investments, Inc., shutdown all of its operations and fully impaired all assets and liabilities by reducing their stated value to $-0-. Based on the passage of time permitted by the statute of limitations to file claims arising prior to 2016, and with the absence of a substantial amount of the old records that were obtained through the first quarter 2019, the Company recorded the effects of this impairment as a discontinued operations expense in 2015.
On December 12, 2018, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock to Custodian Ventures LLC with par $0.001 for shares valued at $5,000 in exchange for settlement of a portion of related party debt owed to Custodian Ventures representing cash advances of $5,000. During the quarter ended February 28, 2019 and the year ended November 20, 2018, Custodian Ventures, LLC advanced a total of $13,773 to the Company for payment of registration, legal and accounting fees. As of January 31, 2019, the company had a loan payable remaining of $8,773 to Custodian Ventures, LLC.
On December 07, 2018, the Company created 5,000,000 shares of Series B Common Stock with par value $0.001, out of the 200,000,000 shares of common stock already authorized by the corporation. The series B Common stock has the same powers, designation, preferences and relative participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the Common Stock except that the holder of each share of Series B Common Stock shall have the right to forty-one (41) votes for each share of Series B.
On December 12, 2018, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock to Custodian Ventures LLC with par $0.001 for shares valued at $5,000 in exchange for settlement of a portion of related party debt owed to Custodian Ventures representing cash advances of $5,000.
On February 26, 2019, the Company formed Series A Preferred Stock and authorized 10,000,000 shares, which were issued to Custodian Ventures LLC.
On March 6, 2019, Custodian Ventures LLC transferred its Series B Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock to Hestia Investments Inc., and a change of control occurred. At that point Edward Lee was appointed as the sole officer and director and David Lazar resigned.
On March 19, 2019, a Certificate of Amendment was filed authorizing 300,000,000 shares of capital stock, with 290,000,000 being designated as common stock and 10,000,000 as preferred stock

● | Investors participating in this offering will incur immediate and substantial dilution. |
Contingent or unknown liabilities could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
We may in the future acquire assets, subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a claim were asserted against us based on ownership of any of these assets, we may have to pay substantial amounts to defend or settle the claim. If the magnitude of such unknown liabilities is high, individually or in the aggregate, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
It is possible investors may lose their entire investment.
We will be reliant on the proceeds of this offering to expand our operations. We may not be successful in implementing our business strategy or that we will be successful in achieving our objectives. Our prospects for success must be considered in the context of a thinly capitalized company in a highly competitive market. As a result, investors may lose their entire investment.

Risks Related to Financing Our Business
Expenses required to operate as a public company will reduce funds available to develop our business and could negatively affect our stock price and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.
Operating as a public company is more expensive than operating as a private company, including additional funds required to obtain outside assistance from legal, accounting, investor relations, or other professionals that could be more costly than planned. We may also be required to hire additional staff to comply with additional SEC reporting requirements. We anticipate that these costs will be approximately $60,000 annually. Our failure to comply with reporting requirements and other provisions of securities laws could negatively affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial condition
Our growth depends on external sources of capital, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all. In addition, investors, banks and other financial institutions may be reluctant to enter into any lending or financial transactions with us. If any of the sources of funding is unavailable to us, our growth may be limited, and our operating profit may be impaired.
We may not be in a position to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities for growth if we are unable, due to global or regional economic uncertainty, changes in the state or federal regulatory environment relating to the sustainable agriculture industry, our own operating or financial performance or otherwise, to access capital markets on a timely basis and on favorable terms or at all. Because we intend to grow our business, this limitation may require us to raise additional equity or incur debt at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.
Our access to capital will depend upon a number of factors over which we have little or no control, including general market conditions and the market’s perception of our current and potential future earnings. If general economic instability or downturn leads to an inability to obtain capital to finance, the operation could be negatively impacted. In addition, investors, banks and other financial institutions may be reluctant to enter into financing transactions with us. If this source of funding is unavailable to us, our growth may be limited.
Our ability to raise funding is subject to all of the above factors and will also be affected by our future financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
Even if this Offering is successful, we will need to raise additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed may force us to delay, limit or terminate our product development efforts or other operations.
The proceeds from this Offering, including potential proceeds from the sale of Warrant Shares upon exercise of all the Warrants, will be up to $49,750,000 before deducting offering expenses payable by us. We expect that if the maximum sale of Units and Warrant Shares is achieved, the net proceeds from this Offering will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next twenty-four months. However, we may not achieve the maximum sale of Units and Warrant Shares, and/or our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned, through public or private equity or debt financings, government or other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances or a combination of these approaches. Raising funds in the current economic environment may present additional challenges. It is not certain that we have accounted for all costs and expenses of future development and regulatory compliance. Even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans, we may seek additional capital if market conditions are favorable or if we have specific strategic considerations.
Any future indebtedness reduces cash available for distribution and may expose us to the risk of default under debt obligations that we may incur in the future.
Payments of principal and interest on borrowings that we may incur in the future may leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate the business. Our level of debt and the limitations imposed on us by debt agreements could have significant material and adverse consequences, including the following:
● | our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments; |
● | we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms, or at all; |
6
● | we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness; |
● | to the extent we borrow debt that bears interest at variable rates, increases in interest rates could materially increase our interest expense; |
● | we may default on our obligations or violate restrictive covenants, in which case the lenders may accelerate these debt obligations; and |
● | our default under any loan with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness. |
If any one of these events were to occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders could be materially and adversely affected.
We own no intellectual property.
The Company owns no intellectual property and do not have Research and Development team and might depend on the strategies partners to have the technologies. The licensed technology might not get FDA approval in clinic trials which our company should manage to avoid it. The company will work on marketing FDA approval or health supplements and healthcare management business.
Risks Related to Our Organization, Structure and Business
We are dependent on our key personnel for our success.
We will depend upon the efforts, experience, diligence, skill and network of business contacts of our senior management team; therefore, our success will depend on their continued service. The departure of any of our executive officers or key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. If any of our key personnel were to cease their employment, our operating results could suffer. Further, we do not intend to maintain key person life insurance that would provide us with proceeds in the event of death or disability of any of our key personnel.
We believe our future success depends upon our senior management team’s ability to hire and retain highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such skilled personnel. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of key personnel, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, and the value of your investment may decline.
Furthermore, we may retain independent contractors to provide various services for us, including administrative services, transfer agent services and professional services. Such contractors have no fiduciary duty to us and may not perform as expected or desired.
Our senior management team will manage our business portfolio subject to broad investment or management guidelines and generally may not seek board approval for each investment or management decision.
Our senior management team has broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering, and you will have no opportunity to evaluate the terms of transactions or other economic or financial data concerning our investments that are not described in this offering circular or other periodic filings with the SEC. Furthermore, currently a substantial portion of the net proceeds of this offering is not specifically committed to any specific projects or business. We will rely on the senior management team’s ability to execute the business plan, subject to the oversight and approval of our board of directors. Our senior management team has limited experience. Accordingly, you should not purchase Common Stock of the Company unless you are willing to entrust all aspects of our day-to-day management to our senior management team.
Our board of directors may change our investment or operation objectives and strategies without shareholders’ consent.
Our board of directors determines our major policies, including decisions regarding financing, growth, debt capitalization, distributions and other material events. Our board of directors may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the shareholders. Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, our directors generally have a right to vote only on the following matters:
● | the election or removal of director; |
● | the amendment of our charter, except that our board of directors may amend our charter without shareholders’ approval to: |
● | change our name; |
● | change the name or other designation or the par value of the Common Stock; |
● | increase or decrease the aggregate number of Common Stock that we have the authority to issue; |
7
● | increase or decrease the number of our Common Stock that we have the authority to issue; and |
● | effect certain reverse Common Stock splits; |
● | our liquidation and dissolution; and |
● | our being a party to a merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets or statutory merger or acquisition. |
All other matters are subject to the discretion of our board of directors.
The fact that we have generated operating losses in the past raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company may generate operating losses before realizing sufficient consulting or other revenue. We may have to cover any shortfall in operating capital from sales of equity and debt securities, but there can be no assurance that we will continue to be able to do so. The unpredictable economy in the United States and the volatile public or private equity markets may make it more difficult for us to raise capital as and when we need it, and it is difficult for us to assess the impact this might have on our operations or liquidity. If we cannot raise the funds that we require to continue our business operations, there is a substantial risk that our business will fail.
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified, experienced, highly skilled personnel, which could adversely affect the implementation of our business plan.
Our success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled and qualified personnel. As we become a more mature company in the future, we may find recruiting and retention efforts more challenging. If we do not succeed in attracting, hiring and integrating excellent personnel, or retaining and motivating existing personnel, we may be unable to grow effectively. The loss of any key employee or contractor, including shareholders of our senior management team, and our inability to attract highly skilled personnel with sufficient experience in our industries could harm our business.
Our strategic consulting and capital market advisory services will be affected by the current COVID-19 pandemic
Many small and micro enterprises have experienced revenue downturn and difficulties in raising capital during the pandemic. It is unclear when this will be back to normal. This may keep us from being retained by more clients in the foreseeable future.
The current political tension between the United States and Chins can adversely effect the Company.
China is an important market for the Company’s growth. Unless we establish a new business model to offset the possible declining market and increased regulation by the U.S of Chinese companies, we may be not able to generate enough business to meet our positive cash flow in the future.
Risks Related to Our Stockholders and Purchasing Shares of Common Stock and our Units
Your percentage of ownership may become diluted if we issue new Common Stock or other securities.
Our board of directors is authorized, without your approval, to cause us to issue additional Common Stock to raise capital through the issuance of Common Stock (including equity or debt securities convertible into Common Stock), and other rights, on terms and for consideration as our board of directors in its sole discretion may determine. Any such issuance could result in dilution of the equity of our shareholders.
We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures.
Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, audit committee oversight and the adoption of a Code of Ethics. Our board of directors expects to adopt a Code of Ethics at a future board meeting. The Company has not adopted exchange-mandated corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees may be made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.
8
We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal control over financial reporting.
As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), the SEC has adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual reports. While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by SOX 404, there is a risk that we will not comply with all of the requirements imposed thereby. At present, there is no precedent available with which to measure compliance adequately. In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we cannot remediate in a timely manner, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing could suffer.
We have a large number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock.
We have a large number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which our management may issue without further stockholder approval, thereby causing dilution of your holdings of our common stock. Our management will continue to have broad discretion to issue shares of our common stock in a range of transactions, including capital-raising transactions, mergers, acquisitions and other transactions, without obtaining stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is required. If our management determines to issue shares of our common stock from the large pool of authorized but unissued shares for any purpose in the future, your ownership position would be diluted without your further ability to vote on that transaction.
Shares of our common stock may continue to be subject to illiquidity because our shares may continue to be thinly traded and may never become eligible for trading on a national securities exchange.
While we may at some point be able to meet the requirements necessary for our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, we cannot assure you that we will ever achieve a listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange. Our shares will only eligible for quotation on the OTC Markets, which is not an exchange. Initial listing on a national securities exchange is subject to a variety of requirements, including minimum trading price and minimum public “float” requirements, and could also be affected by the general skepticism of such markets concerning companies that are the result of mergers with inactive publicly-held companies. There are also continuing eligibility requirements for companies listed on public trading markets. If we are unable to satisfy the initial or continuing eligibility requirements of any such market, then our stock may not be listed or could be delisted. This could result in a lower trading price for our common stock and may limit your ability to sell your shares, any of which could result in you losing some or all of your investments.
The market valuation of our business may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control and the value of your investment may fluctuate correspondingly.
The market valuation of emerging growth companies, such as us, frequently fluctuate due to factors unrelated to the past or present operating performance of such companies. Our market valuation may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
i. | changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance, although there are currently no analysts covering our stock; |
ii. | fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, particularly among securities of emerging growth companies; |
iii. | changes in market valuations of similar companies; |
iv. | announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new technologies, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments; |
v. | variations in our quarterly operating results; |
vi. | fluctuations in related commodities prices; and |
vii. | additions or departures of key personnel. |
As a result, the value of your investment in us may fluctuate.
We have never paid dividends on our common stock.
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Investors should not look to dividends as a source of income.
In the interest of reinvesting initial profits back into our business, we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, any economic return will initially be derived, if at all, from appreciation in the fair market value of our stock, and not as a result of dividend payments.

REGULATION A+
We are offering our Common Stock pursuant to recently adopted rules by the Securities and Exchange Commission mandated under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act.

Additionally, 912,500 shares of our Common Stock may be sold by the Selling Shareholders. | |

If we sell all of the Units being offered, our net proceeds (after our estimated commissions, if any, but excluding our estimated Offering expenses) will be approximately $49,750,000. We will use these net proceeds for our operations, expenses associated with the marketing and advertising of the Offering, working capital, merger, acquisition and joint venture requirements, general corporate purposes, and such other purposes described in the “Use of Proceeds” section of this Offering Circular.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the Selling Shareholders. |
|
Risk Factors: | Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors.” |
As of May 31, 2020, 27,904,200 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, were issued and outstanding out of the 290,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. 5,000,000 of such common stock authorized are Series B and 500,000 of the Series B common stock were outstanding as of May 31, 2020.
10
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the Selling Shareholders. We will use our best efforts to raise a maximum of $49,750,000 for the Company in this offering. We are requiring no minimum offering proceeds threshold. The table below summarizes how we will utilize the proceeds of this offering, including in the event that the Company raises less than the full amount expected ($49,750,000). The actual amount of proceeds realized may differ from the amounts summarized below (1). In order to successfully carry out our stated goals, HSTA would need $140,000 including capital raised in this offering. We anticipate we will incur up to $300,000 in offering expenses over the entire offering, $60,000 in SEC reporting and compliance, and $30,000 to maintain our general and administrative functions over the next twelve months. If we don’t raise sufficient proceeds in this offering or generate sufficient revenue, our working capital goal may not be met. Furthermore, without sufficient proceeds from this offering or the generation of sufficient revenue, some of our other expenses, including advertising and marketing, website design, and operating and equipment may not be incurred or undertaken. While we anticipate incurring $300,000 total in offering expenses, $33,000 was paid from current revenues of the Company and the remainder will be paid by the Company. While HSTA hopes to secure sufficient funds in the Offering described herein, there is no minimum offering amount. If we cannot obtain needed funds, we may be forced to curtail or cease our activities altogether
The following table sets forth the use of the proceeds from this offering:
The order of priority of the use of proceeds is as follows: offering expenses, working capital, fund raising, mergers & acquisitions; joint ventures.
Note: After reviewing the portion of the offering allocated to the payment of offering expenses, and to the immediate payment to management and promoters of any fees, reimbursements, past salaries or similar payments, a potential investor should consider whether the remaining portion of his investment, which would be that part available for future development of the Company’s business and operations, would be adequate.
No assets are planned to be acquired from officers, directors, employees or principal stockholders of the Company or their associates. The proceeds will not be used to pay down any current liabilities that are owed to officers, directors, employees or principal stockholders of the Company
11
As of May 31, 2020, the Company owed its officers $0 in unpaid wages.
The Company has sustained operating losses since inception, and it has been dependent upon limited private lending to provide enough working capital in order to finance its operations. Management believes that it can continue to raise debt and equity financing to support its operations. The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent upon developing additional sources of capital and/or achieving profitable operations.
The proceeds from this offering would satisfy the Company’s cash requirements for the next 12 months, if realized in full. There is no assurance that we will sell all of the Units, if at all.
We intend to raise additional capital through equity and debt financing as needed, though there cannot be any assurance that such funds will be available to us on acceptable terms, on an acceptable schedule, or at all.
The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the status of our consulting fees, and the amount of cash generated through our existing strategic collaborations and any additional strategic collaborations into which we may enter.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The Company determined the offering price based on a discount to the current trading price of the Company’s common stock on OTC Markets.
The Selling Shareholders may sell their shares pursuant to the Company’s Regulation A offering at the fixed price of $5.00 We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the Selling Shareholders.
Selling Shareholders
912,500 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to the Selling Shareholders in a share exchange transaction with Hestia Investments, Inc., on a 1 for 1 basis.
The Selling Shareholders are individuals.
All expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the common stock will be borne by the Company, but we will not be obligated to pay any underwriting fees, discounts, commission or other expenses incurred by Selling Shareholders in connection with the sale of such shares.
The Selling Shareholders are not and were not affiliates of the Company.
The following table sets forth the name of the Selling Shareholders, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Shareholders as of the date hereof and the number of shares of common stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders. The offer and sale of the shares are being registered herein. The Selling Shareholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of such shares. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the Selling Shareholders, respectively.

In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, securities that are currently convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock, or convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock within 60 days of the date hereof are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. |

If you purchase Units or Common Shares in this Offering, your ownership interest in our Common Stock will be diluted immediately, to the extent of the difference between the price to the public charged for each share in this Offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after this Offering.
On May 31, 2020 there were an aggregate of 27,904,200 shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding.
Our net tangible book value as of May 31, 2020, was $557,877 or $0.02 per outstanding share of our Common Stock, based on 27,904,200 outstanding shares of Common Stock at May 31, 2020. Net tangible book value per share equals the amount of our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding, all as of the date specified.
If the maximum 7,960,000 Common Shares in this Offering (in Units and Warrant Shares) at the average public offering price of $6.25 per share, after deducting approximately $50,000 in maximum sales commissions and other offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value would have been approximately $50,257,877 ($1.4013 per share) as on May 31, 2020. This amount represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $1.7811 per share to our existing stockholders at the date of this Offering Circular, and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value of approximately $0.3798 per share to new investors purchasing shares of Common Stock in this Offering at a price of $6.25 per share.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of, respectively, 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of the shares offered for sale in this offering (after our estimated offering expenses of $300,000:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations
The following management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with financial statements of HSTA, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hestia Investments, Inc., for the years ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, and the notes thereto, and for the quarters ended May 31, 2020 and 2019.
Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements

For the years ended November 30, 2019 and 2018
Revenue
We generate our revenue by providing consulting services and marketing guidance.
During the year ended November 30, 2019, total revenues amounted to $120,000, which consisted of consulting revenue. For the year ended November 30, 2018, revenue was $0. The increase of revenue was due to increased consulting revenue.
Cost of Revenue
For the years ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, operating expenses were $285,707 and $36,130, respectively, representing an increase of $249,577. The increase of cost of revenue was mainly driven by selling, general and administrative expenses.
Net Loss
Net Loss increased for the year ended November 30, 2019 to $215,601, as compared to $86,110 for the same period of 2018. The increase was mainly driven by the increase of selling, general and administrative expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses mainly consist salary and benefits, service fees, consulting fees, travel expenses and facility rental expenses.
Selling and administrative expenses were $285,507 for the year ended November 30, 2019, compared to $36,130 for the year ended November 30, 2018. The increase was mainly due to the merger of the Company with Hestia Investments, Inc.
15
Other (Income) Expenses
Other (income) expenses mainly include interest income, interest expense, exchange income, non-operating income, and non-operating expenses.
Other expense was $49,894 for the year ended November 30, 2019 as compared to other expenses of $49,980 for the year ended November 30, 2018.
Income Tax Expense
No provision for income taxes as a result of net loss incurred. The Company has provided full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets at November 30, 2019 and 2018, which arise from the losses incurred since inception.
Net Loss
As a result of the factors described above, for the year ended November 30, 2019, net loss amounted to $215,601, as compared to net loss of $86,110 for the year ended November 30, 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of November 30, 2019 and November 30, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $559,929 and $121,115, respectively, and total assets of $641,151 and $121,115, respectively. We had total liabilities of $106,411, of which $103,314 is a loan payable to a related party as an unsecured, promissory note that is due August 31, 2020. The note is unsecured and bears a simple interest rate of 3.5% on the unpaid principal balance. As of November 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(300,247) and $(98,418), respectively.
We currently have no agreements and arrangements with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since the Company has no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, its inability to raise funds for the above purposes will have a severe negative impact on its ability to remain a viable company.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the year ended November 30, 2019, net cash flows used by operating activities were $(22,964) resulting mainly from a net loss of $(215,601). For the year ended November 30, 2018, net cash flows used by operating activities were $(36,110) resulting from a net loss of $(86,110) and a bad debt expense of $50,000.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the year ended November 30, 2019, the Company had used $81,222 of cash flow in investing activities. For the year ended November 30, 2018, the Company did not have any cash flow from investing activities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the year ended November 30, 2019, we had cash flows provided by financing activities of $543,000. For the year ended November 30, 2018, we had cash flows provided by financing activities of $139,033.
Going Concern Consideration
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to repay its debt obligations, to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses. The Company may seek additional funding through additional issuance of common stock and/or borrowings from financial institutions or the majority shareholder to support its normal business operations. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company had net loss of $215,601 for the year ended November 30, 2019 and a net loss of $86,110 for the year ended November 30, 2018. In addition, as of November 30, 2019 the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(300,247). This raises 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 on its ability to raise additional capital. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
16
For the three months ended May 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended May 31, 2019.
Revenue
For the three months ending May 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company generated $30,000 and $30,000 in revenues, respectively.
Expenses
For the three months ended May 31, 2020, we incurred operating expenses of $39,344. For the three months ended May 31, 2019, we incurred operating expenses of $176,492. The decrease in 2020 is due to a decrease in legal and professional expenses that were incurred for the stock exchange agreement between the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Hestia Investments, Inc.
Net Loss
For the three months ended May 31, 2020 we earned net income of $31,992. For the three months ended May 31, 2019 we incurred a net loss of $147,236. The decrease is due to a decrease in legal and professional expenses in 2019.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $580,834, and total assets of $668,028. We had total liabilities of $110,151, of which $101,167 is a loan payable to a related party as an unsecured, promissory note that is due August 31, 2020. The note is unsecured and bears a simple interest rate of 3.5% on the unpaid principal balance.
Additionally, we will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. Our management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure our Company is compliant with various regulatory requirements, especially that of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement our business plan and may impede the speed of our operations.
If we require additional financing, we cannot predict whether equity or debt financing will become available at terms acceptable to us, if at all. The Company depends upon services provided by Management and an affiliated party to fulfill its filing obligations under the Exchange Act. At present, the Company has no financial resources to pay for such services.
Operating Activities
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, we had cash flows used in operating activities of $4,473.
For the six months ended May 31, 2019, we had cash provided by operating activities of $14,719. The decrease in cash flows from operating activities in 2020 is primarily the result of the receipt of a client’s stock which was recognized as $31,350 of other income by the Company.
Investing Activities
For the six months ended May 31, 2020, net cash provided by investing activities of $25,378, was mainly the result of proceeds provided by investment equities of $44,282.
For the six months ended May 31, 2019, net cash used in investing activities of $105,000 was the result of purchasing of investment equities.
Financing Activities
For the quarter ended May 31, 2020, net cash used in financing activities was $0.
For the quarter ended May 31, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $543,000, which was primarily the result of proceeds provided by the issuance of common stock of $603,000.
Contractual Obligations
None.
17
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors.
Since inception, our principal sources of operating funds have been proceeds from equity financing including the sale of our Common Stock to initial investors known to management and principal shareholders of the Company. We do not expect that our current cash on hand will fund our existing operations. We will need to raise additional capital in order execute our business plan and growth goals for at least the next twelve-month period thereafter. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional funds, it will have to execute a slower than planned growth path, reduce overhead and scale back its business plan until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operational expansion and growth. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), we are not required to provide the information called for by Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
Relaxed Ongoing Reporting Requirements
Upon the completion of this Offering, we may elect to become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act. If we elect to do so, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an “emerging growth company” (as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, which we refer to as the “JOBS Act”) under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. As defined in the JOBS Act, an emerging growth company is defined as a company with less than $1.0 Billion in revenue during its last fiscal year. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies.
For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company,” we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including but not limited to:
● | not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; |
● | taking advantage of extensions of time to comply with certain new or revised financial accounting standards; |
● | being permitted to comply with reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and |
● | being exempt from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. |
If we are required to publicly report under the Exchange Act as an “emerging growth company”, we expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, though if the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million, we would cease to be an “emerging growth company”.
If we elect not to become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis under the reporting rules set forth in Regulation A for Tier 2 issuers. The ongoing reporting requirements under Regulation A are more relaxed than for “emerging growth companies” under the Exchange Act. The differences include, but are not limited to, being required to file only annual and semi-annual reports, rather than annual and quarterly reports. Annual reports are due within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the end of the issuer’s fiscal year, and semi-annual reports are due within ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the first six (6) months of the issuer’s fiscal year.

The Company in 2015, when it was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. and prior to its 2019 share exchange with Hestia Investments, Inc., shutdown all of its operations and fully impaired all assets and liabilities by reducing their stated value to $-0-. Based on the passage of time permitted by the statute of limitations to file claims arising prior to 2016, and with the absence of a substantial amount of the old records that were obtained through the first quarter 2019, the Company recorded the effects of this impairment as a discontinued operations expense in 2015.
On December 12, 2018, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock to Custodian Ventures LLC with par $0.001 for shares valued at $5,000 in exchange for settlement of a portion of related party debt owed to Custodian Ventures representing cash advances of $5,000.

The series B Common stock has the same powers, designation, preferences and relative participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the Common Stock except that the holder of each share of Series B Common Stock shall have the right to forty-one (41) votes for each share of Series B.
On December 12, 2018, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock to Custodian Ventures LLC with par $0.001 for shares valued at $5,000 in exchange for settlement of a portion of related party debt owed to Custodian Ventures representing cash advances of $5,000.
On February 26, 2019, the Company formed Series A Preferred Stock and authorized 10,000,000 shares, which were issued to Custodian Ventures LLC.
On March 6, 2019, Custodian Ventures LLC transferred its Series B Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock to Hestia Investments Inc., and a change of control occurred. At that point Edward Lee was appointed as the sole officer and director and David Lazar resigned.
On March 19, 2019, a Certificate of Amendment was filed authorizing 300,000,000 shares of capital stock, with 290,000,000 being designated as common stock and 10,000,000 as preferred stock
Our principal executive office is located at 400 S. 4th Street, Suite 500, Las Vegas, NV 89101.

Federal Income Tax Status
The Company account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes.
We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes.

Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight
The Board oversees our business and considers the risks associated with our business strategy and decisions. The Board currently implements its risk oversight function as a whole. Each of the Board committees, when established, will also provide risk oversight in respect of its areas of concentration and reports material risks to the board for further consideration.
Term of Office
Directors serve until the next annual meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve for one (1) year until the meeting of the Board following the annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.
Director Independence
We use the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:
● | the director is, or at any time during the past three (3) years was, an employee of the company; |
● | the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months within the three (3) years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exemptions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service); |
● | the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling shareholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exemptions; |
● | the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three (3) years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or |
● | the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three (3) years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit. |
Under such definitions, we have no independent directors. However, our Common Stock is not currently quoted or listed on any national exchange or interdealer quotation system with a requirement that a majority of our Board be independent and, therefore, the Company is not subject to any director independence requirements.
Family Relationships
None.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
During the past five years none of our directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons was:
1) | the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
2) | convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
3) | subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or |
4) | found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law. |
23
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our Board plans to adopt a written code of business conduct and ethics (“Code”) that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We intend to post on our website a current copy of the Code and all disclosures that are required by law in regard to any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this offering circular have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The framework our management uses to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of November 20, 2019 due to the same material weaknesses that rendered our disclosure controls and procedures ineffective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to a lack of sufficient resources to hire a support staff in order to separate duties between different individuals. The Company lacks the appropriate personnel to handle all the varying recording and reporting tasks on a timely basis. The Company plans to address these material weaknesses as resources become available by hiring additional professional staff, such as a Chief Financial Officer, as funding becomes available, outsourcing certain aspects of the recording and reporting functions, and separating responsibilities. We have identified the following material weaknesses.
1. | As of November 30, 2019, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, we have not developed and effectively communicated to our employees the accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness. |
2. | As of November 30, 2019, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. |
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2019, based on the criteria established in “INTERNAL CONTROL-INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK” issued by the COSO.

On November 24, 2019 the Company filed a “Certificate, Amendment or Withdrawal of Designation” with the Nevada Secretary of State that withdrew the Series A preferred stock designation leaving no Series A preferred stock authorized or outstanding as of that date.
The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series.

Penny stock regulation
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price of less than Five Dollars ($5.00) per share or an exercise price of less than Five Dollars ($5.00) per share. Such securities are subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell them. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, among other requirements, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. As our Common Stock immediately following this Offering may be subject to such penny stock rules, purchasers in this Offering will in all likelihood find it more difficult to sell their Common Stock shares in the secondary market.
Dividend Policy
We will not distribute cash to our Common Stock shareholders until Company generates net income. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business and for general corporate purposes. We cannot assure you that we will distribute any cash in the future. Our cash distribution policy is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Company may establish a Common Stock Option Plan for the benefit of its employees in the near future. The vesting and terms of all of the options are determined by the Board of Directors and may vary by optionee; however, the term may be no longer than 10 years from the date of grant.

The Selling Shareholders, and any of their pledgees, designees, assignees and other successors-in-interest may, from time to time sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

The Selling Shareholders may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that the Selling Shareholders will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then existing market price. We cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this offering circular will be sold by the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders, and any broker-dealers or agents, upon completing the sale of any of the shares offered in this offering circular, may be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
The Selling Shareholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this offering circular through an underwriter. The Selling Shareholders have not entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.
The Selling Shareholders may pledge its shares to its brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If any of the Selling Shareholders default on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares. The Selling Shareholders, and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by any of the Selling Shareholders, or any other such person. Under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.
The Selling Shareholders will be offering such shares for their own account. We do not know for certain how or when the Selling Shareholders will choose to sell their shares of common stock. However, they can sell such shares at any time or through any manner set forth in this plan of distribution.
To permit the Selling Shareholders to resell the shares of common stock issued to it, we agreed to file an offering circular is a part, and all necessary amendments and supplements with the SEC for the purpose of qualifying the shares. We will bear all costs relating to the registration of the common stock offered by this offering circular, other than the costs of our independent legal review. We will keep the offering circular qualified until the earlier of (i) the date after which all of the shares of common stock held by the Selling Shareholders that are covered by the offering circular have been sold by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to such offering circular and (ii) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the date the offering circular, to which this offering circular is made a part, is declared effective by the SEC.
The remaining shares in this offering circular are being offered by us on a “best-efforts” basis by our officers, directors and employees. Our sole officer and director shall personally market the shares to the contacts he has made throughout his years working in the public markets. He intends to reach out to his contacts in China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. We reserve the right to temporarily suspend and/or modify this Offering and Offering Circular in the future, during the Offering Period, in order to take such actions necessary to enable the Company to accept subscriptions in this Offering from investors residing in such states identified above.
We reserve the right to offer the Common Stock through broker-dealers who are registered with FINRA.

Our Offering will expire on the first to occur of (a) the sale of all 3,190,000 shares of Common Stock offered hereby, (b) August 6, 2021 subject to extension for up to one hundred-eighty (180) days in the sole discretion of the Company, or (c) when our board of directors elects to terminate the Offering.

HESTIA INSIGHT INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2020
UNAUDITED
Note 1 – Organization and basis of accounting
Nature of Organization
Hestia Insight Inc., (“Hestia” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2003 and was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. until it changed its name on March 27, 2019. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hestia Investments Inc., provides strategic consulting and capital market advisory services for selective micro, small and medium sized companies in the healthcare, biotech and fintech sectors.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hestia Insight Inc. (“Hestia” or the “Company”) consolidated with the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary Hestia Investments, Inc., a Wyoming corporation. In these notes, the terms “us,” “we” or “our” refer to Hestia Insight Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company is a development stage enterprise devoting substantial efforts to establishing its new business, financial planning, raising capital, and research into investments and services which may become part of the Company’s investment and services portfolios. The Company has not realized significant revenues from inception through the date of these financial statements. A development stage company is defined as one in which all efforts are devoted substantially to establishing a new business and, even if planned principal operations have commenced, revenues are insignificant.
Presented as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding until a registration statement relating to an equity funding facility is in effect. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional equity capital, or be successful in the development and commercialization of the investments and services it develops or enters into collaboration agreements thereon. Ultimately, the Company will need to achieve profitable operations in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the reclassification or the amounts that can be recovered from receivables or other assets, or the reclassification or the amounts of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
F-5
Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting within the balance sheets and the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, cash on deposit in attorney trust accounts, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Prepaid Expenses
The Company records amounts which have been paid in advance of receiving future economic benefits anticipated by the payment as prepaid expenses. Prepaid expenses are recorded as assets and expensed over the period that the benefits are received from the payment. The Company recorded as prepaid expenses of $0 for the six months ended May 31, 2020 and the year ended November 30, 2019, respectively.
Investments in Equities
For those investments in equities, including equity securities and partnership interests, that have a “readily determinable fair value,” as defined in ASC 321 and discussed below, or are traded in a verifiable public market and are not restricted for sale in the public market by a restricted stock legend or otherwise, we present and carry our investments at their estimate of fair value at net asset value (NAV) as of the balance sheet date. For these equity securities and partnership interests we include the realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from the changes in the fair values during the period as a component of investment gains in the consolidated statements of operations.
For those investments in equities, including equity securities and partnership interests, that do not have a “readily determinable fair value,” or are not traded in a verifiable public market or are restricted for sale in the public market by a restricted stock legend or otherwise, we present and carry our investments using the measurement alternative which is cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined in ASC 321, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under FASB ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.
F-6
The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the federal tax laws.
Changes in circumstances, including the Company generating significant taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the reliability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
Estimates
The financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, also referred to as U.S. GAAP. The preparation 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 as of the dates of the balance sheets and the income and expenses for the periods ended as stated in the statements of operations.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events through July 14, 2020, the date when these financial statements are issued for disclosure consideration.
Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that management of the Company believes may impact its financial statements. Management does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective December 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01 “Financial Instruments—Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 adds a new Topic, “ASC 321 Investments – Equity Securities” to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which provides guidance on accounting for all equity investments.
The guidance in ASC 321 allows a measurement exception for those equity investments that do not have a “readily determinable fair value,” as defined therein, and do not qualify to be measured using the practical expedient to estimate fair value at net asset value (NAV) of the investee in accordance with ASC 820-1035-59, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. The measurement alternative allows those investments to be measured at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Hestia has elected to use this measurement exception. See Note 3 below for a detailed listing of the Company’s investment in equities to which the measurement exception applies.
F-7
Note 3 – Investment in Equities
The following equity investments are measured using the measurement alternative described in ASC 321 and discussed above. They are measured at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.

Note 4 – Share Exchange Agreement
On May 16, 2019 the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Hestia Investments, Inc. to exchange on a 1 for 1 basis, 27,614,200 shares of the Company’s common stock for 27,614,200 shares of Hestia Investments, Inc. that were owned by 100% of the then-shareholders of Hestia Investments, Inc.
Note 5 – Discontinued Operations
The Company in 2015, when it was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. and prior to its 2019 share exchange with Hestia Investments, Inc., shutdown all of its operations and fully impaired all assets and liabilities by reducing their stated value to $-0-. Based on the passage of time permitted by the statute of limitations to file claims arising prior to 2016, and with the absence of a substantial amount of the old records that were obtained through the first quarter 2019, the Company recorded the effects of this impairment as a discontinued operations expense in 2015. This 2015 expense is carried as part of the accumulated deficit on the balance sheets for periods ending after December 31, 2015.
Note 6 – Income Taxes
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act includes a number of changes to existing U.S. income tax laws that affect the Company, most notably a reduction of the top U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act also provides for the acceleration of depreciation for certain assets placed in service after September 27, 2017 as well as changes beginning in 2018, including additional limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation and interest.
On May 16, 2019 the Company entered into a share exchange agreement which resulted in Hestia Investments, Inc. becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the former shareholders Hestia Investments Inc becoming the new majority shareholders of the Company. Prior to this date the Company and Hestia Investments, Inc., have been taxed as separate C-Corporations for federal income tax purposes.
The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the six months ended May 31, 2020 and the year ended November 30, 2019 consist of the following:

F-9
The Company, and its subsidiary have net deferred tax assets resulting from net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards. These NOL carryforwards are subject to limitations on their use and availability. Under the 2017 Tax Act, NOL carryforwards can offset only 80% of taxable income in any given tax year and are significantly or completely reduced whenever there is a substantial change in the ownership of the Corporation.
The income tax provision (benefit) differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% in 2020 and 2019 to net income (loss) before income taxes for the six months ended May 31, 2020 and year ended November 30, 2019 and adjusting for the following:

On December 12, 2018, the Company created 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock with par value $0.001, out of the 290,000,000 shares of common stock already authorized by the corporation. The Series B common stock has the same powers, designation, preferences and relative participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the originally issued common stock except that the holder of each share of Series B common stock has the right to forty-one (41) votes for each share of Series B.

See Note 4 – Share Exchange Agreement above.
On November 21, 2019 the Company retired and cancelled 4,500,000 shares out of the 5,000,000 shares of Series B common stock that was authorized and outstanding on that date and recognized the $4,500 par value of these shares as treasury stock.

On March 1, 2019, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock to Custodian Ventures LLC with a par value of $0.00001 for shares valued at $100,000 in exchange for David Lazar’s services, valued at $100,000 as the director and president of Luxshmi Investments, Inc., now known as Hestia Insight Inc.

On November 24, 2019 the Company filed a “Certificate, Amendment or Withdrawal of Designation” with the Nevada Secretary of State that withdrew the Series A preferred stock designation leaving no Series A preferred stock authorized or outstanding as of that date.
F-12

1. | Dividend Provisions - Entitled to receive dividends, out of any assets legally available therefor, upon any payment of any dividend (payable other than in common stock or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of common stock of the Corporation) on the common stock of the Corporation, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, as if the Series A preferred stock had been converted into common stock. |
2. | Liquidation Preference - Entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Corporation to the holders of common stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to the price per share actually paid to the Corporation upon the initial issuance of the Series preferred stock (each, the “the Original Issue Price”) for each share of Series A preferred stock then held by them, plus declared but unpaid dividends. |
3. | Conversion Rights – Entitled to convert into such of number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock as is determined by dividing the Original Issue Price of the Series A preferred stock, $0.00001, by the Series A Conversion Price applicable to such share, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. The initial Series A Conversion Price per share shall be $0.000000006745249 for shares of Series A preferred stock. |
4. | Voting Rights - The holder of each share of Series A preferred stock shall have the right to one vote for each share of common stock into which such preferred stock could then be converted, on an as-converted basis, and with respect to such vote, such holder shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the holders of common stock. |
5. | Protective Provisions - the Corporation shall not without first obtaining the approval (by vote or written consent, as provided by law) of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock to: |
a. | amend or repeal any provision of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or bylaws if such action would materially and adversely change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A preferred stock; |
b. | increase or decrease (other than by redemption or conversion) the total number of authorized shares of Series A preferred stock; or |
c. | redeem shares of common stock (other than shares repurchased upon termination of an officer, employee or director pursuant to a restricted stock purchase agreement). |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Hestia Insight, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hestia Insight, Inc. as of November 30, 2019 and 2018, 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 November 30, 2019 and 2018, 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.
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.
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 1 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 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

HESTIA INSIGHT INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2019
Note 1 – Organization and basis of accounting
Nature of Organization
Hestia Insight Inc., (“Hestia” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2003 and was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. until it changed its name on March 27, 2019. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hestia Investments Inc., provides strategic consulting and capital market advisory services for selective micro, small and medium sized companies in the healthcare, biotech and fintech sectors.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hestia Insight Inc. (“Hestia” or the “Company”) consolidated with the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary Hestia Investments, Inc., a Wyoming corporation. In these notes, the terms “us,” “we” or “our” refer to Hestia Insight Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company is a development stage enterprise devoting substantial efforts to establishing its new business, financial planning, raising capital, and research into investments and services which may become part of the Company’s investment and services portfolios. The Company has not realized significant revenues from inception through the date of these financial statements. A development stage company is defined as one in which all efforts are devoted substantially to establishing a new business and, even if planned principal operations have commenced, revenues are insignificant.
Presented as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding until a registration statement relating to an equity funding facility is in effect. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional equity capital, or be successful in the development and commercialization of the investments and services it develops or enters into collaboration agreements thereon. Ultimately, the Company will need to achieve profitable operations in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the reclassification or the amounts that can be recovered from receivables or other assets, or the reclassification or the amounts of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
F-20
Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting within the balance sheets and the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, cash on deposit in attorney trust accounts, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Prepaid Expenses
The Company records amounts which have been paid in advance of receiving future economic benefits anticipated by the payment as prepaid expenses. Prepaid expenses are recorded as assets and expensed over the period that the benefits are received from the payment. The Company recorded as prepaid expenses of $0 for the periods ending November 30, 2019 and November 30, 2018, respectively.
Investments in Equities
For those investments in equities, including equity securities and partnership interests, that have a “readily determinable fair value,” as defined in ASC 321 and discussed below, or are traded in a verifiable public market and are not restricted for sale in the public market by a restricted stock legend or otherwise, we present and carry our investments at their estimate of fair value at net asset value (NAV) as of the balance sheet date. For these equity securities and partnership interests we include the realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from the changes in the fair values during the period as a component of investment gains in the consolidated statements of operations.
For those investments in equities, including equity securities and partnership interests, that do not have a “readily determinable fair value,” or are not traded in a verifiable public market or are restricted for sale in the public market by a restricted stock legend or otherwise, we present and carry our investments using the measurement alternative which is cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined in ASC 321, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under FASB ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.
F-21
The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the federal tax laws.
Changes in circumstances, including the Company generating significant taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the reliability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
Estimates
The financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, also referred to as U.S. GAAP. The preparation 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 as of the dates of the balance sheets and the income and expenses for the periods ended as stated in the statements of operations.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events through April 3, 2020, the date when these financial statements are issued for disclosure consideration.
Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that management of the Company believes may impact its financial statements. Management does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective December 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01 “Financial Instruments—Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 adds a new Topic, “ASC 321 Investments – Equity Securities” to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which provides guidance on accounting for all equity investments.
The guidance in ASC 321 allows a measurement exception for those equity investments that do not have a “readily determinable fair value,” as defined therein, and do not qualify to be measured using the practical expedient to estimate fair value at net asset value (NAV) of the investee in accordance with ASC 820-1035-59, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. The measurement alternative allows those investments to be measured at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Hestia has elected to use this measurement exception. See Note 3 below for a detailed listing of the Company’s investment in equities to which the measurement exception applies.
F-22
Note 3 – Investment in Equities
The following equity investments are measured using the measurement alternative described in ASC 321 and discussed above. They are measured at their cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in “orderly transactions,” as defined, for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.

Note 4 – Share Exchange Agreement
On May 16, 2019 the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Hestia Investments, Inc. to exchange on a 1 for 1 basis, 27,614,200 shares of the Company’s common stock for 27,614,200 shares of Hestia Investments, Inc. that were owned by 100% of the then-shareholders of Hestia Investments, Inc.
Note 5 – Discontinued Operations
The Company in 2015, when it was formerly known as Luxshmi Investments, Inc. and prior to its 2019 share exchange with Hestia Investments, Inc., shutdown all of its operations and fully impaired all assets and liabilities by reducing their stated value to $-0-. Based on the passage of time permitted by the statute of limitations to file claims arising prior to 2016, and with the absence of a substantial amount of the old records that were obtained through the first quarter 2019, the Company recorded the effects of this impairment as a discontinued operations expense in 2015. This 2015 expense is carried as part of the accumulated deficit on the balance sheets for periods ending after December 31, 2015.
Note 6 – Income Taxes
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act includes a number of changes to existing U.S. income tax laws that affect the Company, most notably a reduction of the top U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act also provides for the acceleration of depreciation for certain assets placed in service after September 27, 2017 as well as changes beginning in 2018, including additional limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation and interest.
On May 16, 2019 the Company entered into a share exchange agreement which resulted in Hestia Investments, Inc. becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the former shareholders Hestia Investments Inc becoming the new majority shareholders of the Company. Prior to this date the Company and Hestia Investments, Inc., have been taxed as separate C-Corporations for federal income tax purposes.
The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the years ended November 31, 2019 and 2018 consist of the following:

The Company, and its subsidiary have net deferred tax assets resulting from net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards. These NOL carryforwards are subject to limitations on their use and availability. Under the 2017 Tax Act, NOL carryforwards can offset only 80% of taxable income in any given tax year and are significantly or completely reduced whenever there is a substantial change in the ownership of the Corporation.
The income tax provision (benefit) differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% in 2019 and 2018 to net income (loss) before income taxes for the years ended November 30, 2019 and 2018 and adjusting for the following:

EXHIBIT 1A-4B
THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR APPLICABLE EXEMPTION OR SAFE HARBOR PROVISION.
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Warrant Shares: ______ Initial Issue Date: _____, 2020
Aggregate Exercise Amount: $__________
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, ________, or his assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Termination Date”), to subscribe for and purchase from HESTIA INSIGHT INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to ___________ shares (as subject to adjustment herein, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 1.2.
ARTICLE 1 EXERCISE RIGHTS
The Holder will have the right to exercise this Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock as set forth below.
1.1 Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, from and after the Initial Exercise Date, and then at any time, by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile or emailed copy of the Notice of Exercise form annexed hereto. Within three (3) business days following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1.3 below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise form within 24 hours of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
1.2 Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $7.50 per share, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”). The aggregate exercise price is $_______.
1.3 Cashless Exercise. At any time after the Initial Exercise Date, this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
1.4 Delivery of Warrant Shares. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder will be delivered to Holder by 2:30 pm EST within two (2) business days of Notice of Exercise by “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). For example, if Holder delivers a Notice of Exercise to the Company at 5:15 pm eastern time on Monday January 1stt, the Company’s transfer agent must deliver shares to Holder’s broker via “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer by no later than 2:30 pm eastern time on Wednesday January 3rd, The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Holder may assess penalties or liquidated damages (both referred to herein as “penalties”) as follows. For each exercise, in the event that shares are not delivered by the third business day (inclusive of the day of exercise), the Company shall pay the Holder in cash a penalty of $100 per day for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of exercise) until share delivery is made. The Company will not be subject to any penalties once its transfer agent correctly processes the shares to the DWAC system.
1
1.5 Delivery of Warrant. The Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company. If the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled without the need to surrender the Warrant to the Company for cancellation. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant and, for purposes of Rule 144, shall tack back to the original date of this Warrant.
1.6 Warrant Exercise Rescission Rights. For any reason in Holder’s sole discretion, including if the Warrant Shares are not delivered by DWAC/FAST electronic transfer or in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section 1.4, or for any other reason, Holder may, at any time prior to selling those Warrant Shares rescind such exercise, in whole or in part, in which case the Company must, within three (3) days of receipt of notice from the Holder, repay to the Holder the portion of the exercise price so rescinded and reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which the exercise was rescinded and, for purposes of Rule 144, such reinstated portion of the Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall tack back to the original date of this Warrant. If Warrant Shares were issued to Holder prior to Holder’s rescission notice, upon return of payment from the Company, Holder will, within three (3) days of receipt of payment, commence procedures to return the Warrant Shares to the Company.
1.7 [Intentionally Omitted.]
1.8 [Intentionally Omitted.]
1.9 Make-Whole for Failure to Deliver Loss. At the Holder’s election, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date and if the Holder incurs a Failure to Deliver Loss, then at any time the Holder may provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Failure to Deliver Loss and the Company must make the Holder whole as follows:
Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade price at any time on or after the day of exercise) x (Number of Warrant Shares)]
The Company must pay the Failure to Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Company.
1.10 Choice of Remedies. Nothing herein, shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
1.11 Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise.
1.12 Holder’s Exercise Limitations. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both the Company and the Holder, at no time will the Holder exercise any amount of this Warrant to purchase Common Stock that would result in the Holder owning more than 4.99% of the Common Stock outstanding of the Company (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Upon the written or oral request of Holder, the Company shall within twenty-four (24) hours confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
ARTICLE 2 ADJUSTMENTS
2.1 Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
2
2.2 Intentionally Omitted.
2.3 Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.
2.4 Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Article 2, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder (by written notice) setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ARTICLE 3 COMPANY COVENANTS
3.1 Reservation of Shares. As of the issuance date of this Warrant and for the remaining period during which the Warrant is exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the full exercise of this Warrant. The Company represents that upon issuance, such Warrant Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company agrees that its issuance of this Warrant constitutes full authority to its officers, agents and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing shares to execute and issue the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. No further approval or authority of the stockholders or the Board of Directors of the Company is required for the issuance of the Warrant Shares.
3.2 No Adverse Actions. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
ARTICLE 4 MISCELLANEOUS
4.1 Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
4.2 Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, by a written assignment of this Warrant duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. If necessary to obtain a new warrant for any assignee, the Company, upon surrender of this Warrant, shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and such new Warrants, for purposes of Rule 144, shall tack back to the original date of this Warrant. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
4.3 Assignability. The Company may not assign this Warrant. This Warrant will be binding upon the Company and its successors, and will inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns, and may be assigned by the Holder to anyone of its choosing without the Company’s approval.
3
4.4 Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder must be in writing and either personally served, sent by facsimile or email transmission, or sent by overnight courier. Notices will be deemed effectively delivered at the time of transmission if by facsimile or email, and if by overnight courier the business day after such notice is deposited with the courier service for delivery.

Both parties and the individuals signing this Agreement agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts.
4.6 Delivery of Process by Holder to the Company. In the event of any action or proceeding by Holder against the Company, and only by Holder against the Company, service of copies of summons and/or complaint and/or any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding may be made by Holder via U.S. Mail, overnight delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, email, fax, or process server, or by mailing or otherwise delivering a copy of such process to the Company at its last known address or to its last known attorney set forth in its most recent SEC filing.
4.7 No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 1.1. So long as this Warrant is unexercised, this Warrant carries no voting rights and does not convey to the Holder any “control” over the Company, as such term may be interpreted by the SEC under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, regardless of whether the price of the Company’s Common Stock exceeds the Exercise Price.
4.8 Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
4.9 Attorney Fees. In the event any attorney is employed by either party to this Warrant with regard to any legal or equitable action, arbitration or other proceeding brought by such party for the enforcement of this Warrant or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such proceeding will be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled.
