The Company's common stock symbol is "ESSI".  During May 2017 the trading of ESSI shares on the public exchanges was suspended, and although the suspension has been lifted, a Form 15c2-11 with current information must be filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) prior to the caveat emptor status being lifted, and before trading can resume.  The Company is in the process of getting a Form 15c2-11 filed; as soon as it meets FINRA's criteria, it will be filed.

On February 14, 2014, the company effected a 1,000- for 1 reverse split.  All share and per share figures herein reflect the impact of the split.

Corporate History

Formation and Business Development

The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009, under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Pristine Solutions Limited, was incorporated under the laws of Jamaica. The Company's original business plan focused on developing a network of sales points for the sale and service of tankless water heaters in Jamaica, through Pristine Solutions Limited. The Company's aim was to become the first tankless water heater company specializing in tankless-only products to enter the Jamaican market, and the only company in the Jamaican market offering solar-powered tankless water heater products.  As part of its plan, on December 30, 2009, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with Zhongshan Guangsheng Industry Co., Ltd., of China ("Zhongshan"), the manufacturer of the tankless water heaters.   Zhongshan manufactures the tankless water heaters under the brand Gleamous Electric Appliances. 
 
On March 7, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Change with the State of Nevada increasing the shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 650,000,000 common stock; par value $0.0001 and decreasing the shares of Preferred Stock from 100,000,000 to 50,000,000; par value $0.001.
 
On August 22, 2012, Christine Buchanan-McKenzie , the Company's former President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors, resigned from all positions with the Company.    The resignation did not involve any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. On the same day, Mr. Michael Borkowski   was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and the sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company. Concurrently the Company determined to change its business focus.

On August 23, 2012, the Company changed its fiscal year from December 31 to January 31.

On August 23, 2012, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange") with Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd., a Nevada corporation ("ESSL") and the shareholders of ESSL (the "ESSL Shareholders"), whereby the Company acquired 25,000 shares of common stock (100%) of ESSL (the "ESSL Stock") from the ESSL Shareholders.   In exchange for the ESSL Stock, the Company issued 25,000shares of its common stock to the ESSL Shareholders.  In addition, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael J. Borkowski, on behalf of the Company, entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with the Company's controlling shareholder, and former President, Ms. Christine Buchanan-McKenzie, whereby the Company would purchase one hundred percent (100%), or 240,000 shares, of the Company's common shares owned by Mrs. Buchanan-McKenzie, at par value $.0001, and representing approximately 54.1% of the Company's total issued and outstanding shares.  The Common Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on October 22, 2012.  On October 23, 2012, the Common Stock Purchase Agreement was finalized, and a change in control of the Company took place.

In conjunction with the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the total shares held by the ESSL Shareholders are 265,000, or approximately 59.8% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of October 30, 2012.  Certain ESSL shareholders owning a total of 135,779 shares of the Company's common stock, representing approximately 30.64% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, entered into three (3) separate twenty-four (24) month Lock-Up Agreements.  As a result of the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, (i) there was a change in control of the Registrant; (ii) ESSL became the Company's wholly owned subsidiary; (iii) the ESSL became the Company's primary business, and (iv) on November 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.

Subsequently the Company determined to operate Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. ("Eaton Sub") a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as a privately held Company, until such time where it is sufficiently capitalized to increase the probability for its Clinical Trials of Homatropine ("Tropine 3") in oral suspension for the treatment of hot flash symptoms in pre-menopausal, menopausal and post-menopausal women, to be in a position to yield results that may provide the opportunity for a potential FDA approval for marketing to consumers in the US.

In October, 2013, the Company's Management was introduced to Domenic Marciano ("Marciano").  Marciano represented that he intended to acquire an exclusive license to a unique automotive product, the EcoFlora Spark Plug (the "EcoFlora Plug"), with a proprietary technology, and that the EcoFlora Plug has the potential to be uniquely positioned in the automotive parts business in the United States and International automotive parts marketplace.

On November 26, 2013, the Company and its Majority Shareholders (the "Majority Stockholders") entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Common Stock (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") with Marciano whereby Marciano acquired 227,370 shares of the Company's common stock from the Majority Stockholders at par value $.0001, representing approximately 51.3% of the Company's total issued and outstanding shares, in exchange for cash in the amount of $22,737 (the "Cash Proceeds").  The Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on November 26, 2013, and a change in control of the Company took place.
 
In connection with the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement and sale of 227,370 shares held by the Majority Stockholders:

1. Marciano appointed two new directors to the Company's board of directors; and
2.   The "Lock-Up-Leak-Out" Agreements executed in October 2012 were cancelled by mutual agreement between the Board and the Company's Shareholders who were party to the Agreements.
3. The Majority Shareholders of the Company voted to "Spin-out" to its Shareholders, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Eaton Scientific Systems Ltd., its operating subsidiary, as of the record date of November 25, 2013, on a one-for-one basis within sixty-days (60) of the Change of Control of the Company, or by January 25, 2014.

On December 4, 2013, the Company (the "Company") executed an Agreement of the License of Intellectual Property (the "License Agreement") dated November 4, 2013 with Eco Science Solutions International, Inc., a Canadian corporation ("ESS International"), for the exclusive license to the EcoFlora Plug, recently patented in the US and that has filed for Patent protection in Canada and the International community, based on its "Internal Pre-Combustion Chamber High Efficiency Spark Plug" technology.  In connection with the License Agreement, the Company issued ESS International 2,500,000 shares of the Company's Series "A" Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock"), in exchange for the exclusive license of the Patent Applications, in perpetuity.  The Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of 10 common shares for each preferred share

On January 8, 2014, the Spin-out was complete, and Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. was no longer a subsidiary of the Company.

On February 14, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc .   and effected a 1000-to-1 reverse stock split.  As a result, the total shares of common stock issued and outstanding was 443,001 with a par value of $0.0001.

On April 4, 2014, the Company received notice from Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. to convert 100% of the Series "A" preferred shares into restricted common shares on a 10 for 1 basis.  As a result, on April 9, 2014, 25,000,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock was issued, of which 19,866,668 shares were issued to the Company's chairman, Domenic Marciano, and 5,133,332 shares were issued to non-related parties.  Subsequent to the conversion, Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. no longer holds any shares of the Company's capital stock, and Mr. Marciano holds 20,094,038 shares of the Company's common stock, which represents 62.53% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis.

On October 7, 2014, the US Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") issued Patent #8,853,925 for the EcoFlora Plug, based on its "Internal Pre-Combustion Chamber High Efficiency Spark Plug" technology , and has patent pending applications both in Canada and worldwide.

On September 3, 2015, 4,966,667 shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock were cancelled by the certificate holder.  As a result of this transaction, the shares were returned to treasury, and the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock was reduced to 26,176,334 shares.
   
On November 1, 2015, the Company entered into a new Employment Agreement with Mr. Borkowski (the "2015 Employment Agreement").

Current Business and Strategy

Our business has commenced generating modest revenues subsequent to our fiscal year ended January 31, 2018. We continue to build both consumer and enterprise technology, consumer package goods, invest in research & development and advertising to consumer and professional traffic for both our apps and web properties, as well as the marketing of our financial services partnership through AFN. Once we have gained a large enough audience the Company will begin to aggressively monetize its audience relationships through: 1) paid advertisements from business seeking exposure to users the Herbo services; 2) enterprise license agreements with professional customers; 3) sales of products targeting general health and wellness and alternative medicines and 4) successful marketing of our financial services to an expanded number of clients across various states in the US through our AFN partnership.

All current advertisers on the Herbo platform are being allowed to advertise at no charge. We have elected to pursue this strategy to allow for a concrete set of metrics to develop.

Management believes this "customer first" will benefit the success of retention and advertiser growth on a long-term basis.

Right now the Company is investing our internal enterprise capabilities that will allow for us to best service, deliver and account for all transactions.

Operations of Ga-Du and the License and Master Marketing Agreement (LMMA)

Operations of Ga-Du

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Ga-Du, acquired in June 2017, offers the following suite of business functions and opportunities:

Financial Services Platform Summary

Ga-Du has developed multiple financial services applications.  It has created a software platform that captures individual and business entity data. Ga-Du platform is a secure portal for account access and features incorporating current banking standards for operating and securing online data.  In terms of Financial Services, the Ga-Du platform uses a strict and proprietary Know-Your-Customer (KYC) process, this ensures compliance regardless of the underlying usage.  This software can be used for membership capture, registrations of various kinds, for customer accounts retention and marketing, and/or for bank accounts.  In addition, the Ga-Du banking platform has been enhanced for mobile devices.  The mobile payment platform accommodates the purchasing of products and services like those offered by ESSI, and/or a combined entity, as well as other products and services both inside and outside the cannabis industry.  By targeting digital customers rather than brick-and-mortar customers, the digital Ga-Du platform acquired by ESSI is ready to provide banking services to any underserved area.
Inventory Control and Advisory Systems Business Summary
 
Retail marijuana is arguably the fastest growing segment of the cannabis industry. National monthly sales numbers seem to demonstrate, average year-over-year increases of over 100% for some years following legalization.  However, cannabis retailers still face hurdles finding working capital due to the federal regulation of cannabis as a Schedule I drug.  This lack of capital results in a potential market disruption opportunity.  Because businesses have not had financial resources to develop their own effective business solutions of various kinds, they represent potential "soft targets" for Ga-Du software and enterprise processes for inventory control and other services.  ESSI, through its acquisition of Ga-Du Corporation, will make available its Ga-Du solutions, advisory services, and inventory control systems (from raw materials to finished product) directly to licensed retail businesses, as well as work-flow analysis and management. Ga-Du has an experienced retail management team which has put in place similar as well as other services systems and processes for inventory acquisition and control.   These systems and processes can be licensed to regulate marijuana retail businesses potentially, allowing the retail business to focus on the customer experience while letting ESSI provide the backend technology and systems. The Ga-Du Management team believes that combining the business customer network of ESSI with the technology and systems that Ga-Du has assembled, in a manner that can allow retail businesses rapid access to cutting-edge technology and retail-marijuana-specific inventory control solutions, may provide ESSI with an edge in the rapidly expanding area of cannabis advisory/business services.

The social applications market continues to grow with successful companies establishing focused services. For example, Facebook brought a person's "friends" in view, Pinterest socialized a browser's bookmarking feature and Waze socialized the GPS. Cornerstone networking consists of Facebook, Twitter, WordPress, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Skype and Tumblr. Our goal, supported by our owned and licensed technologies and based upon content created in house by our officers and directors, and available in various formats, is to provide consumers and enthusiasts easy access to connect with health-and-wellness businesses and like-minded enthusiasts, and to facilitate the research of and purchasing of eco-friendly products ... anytime, anywhere.
 
Competition

The market for social media applications and information and education based content sites is large and growing. As noted above in a special report on Digital, Social and Mobile Worldwide users released in January 2017 by We Are Social Ltd. there are over 2.80 billion global social media users in 2017, or 37% of the worlds population. The largest social media networks in the world, measured by active users, as of April 2018 according to a report by Statistica.com (https://www.statista.com/statistics/272014/global-social-networks-ranked-by-number-of-users/) were Facebook (2.23bn), WhatsApp and YouTube (1500mn), Chinese social network QZone (563mn), WeChat (980mn), Tumblr (794mn), Twitter (330mn) and Instagram (813mm). This market is extremely competitive and characterized by well-funded existing players, high capital inflows, and rapidly changing technologies. In addition to competitive and technological challenges, participants in the social media industry must remain flexible enough to accommodate changes in consumer preferences and tastes. We hope to reduce competition by targeting only those topics, concepts and content focused on building eco-friendly businesses and living healthy lifestyles, with our unique apps, channels and other social media efforts, including blogs.

Government Regulations
 
Currently, there are approximately twenty states plus the District of Columbia that have laws and/or regulations that recognize in one form or another legitimate medical uses for cannabis and consumer use of cannabis in connection with medical treatment. Fifteen other states are considering legislation to similar effect. As of the date of this report, the policy and regulations of the Federal government and its agencies is that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities including cultivation and use of cannabis for personal use is prohibited on the basis of federal law and may or may not be permitted on the basis of state law.

The Department of Justice governs the use of cannabis under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Schedule 21 of the U.S. Code includes five established schedules of controlled substances known as schedules I, II, III, IV, and V. The Department of Justice has mandated that schedules established by this section shall be updated and republished on a semi-annual basis during the two-year period beginning one year after October 27, 1970 and shall be updated and republished on an annual basis thereafter. Schedule I includes cannabis in its listing.  Substances included in Schedule I have the following characteristics:
 
(A) The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse;
(B) The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States;
(C) There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision.

20

 
We do not produce, market, or sell cannabis.  We are limiting ourselves to states where the state law allows for the production of cannabis. Beyond the state law allowing for cannabis production our construction must comply with all state and local building requirements as well as zoning requirements.  We work closely with the local authorities regarding zoning and work closely with the local building inspectors to comply in every way with building regulations.

The domestic recognized cannabis industry is estimated to be over $44 Billion in revenues opportunity over the next several years, with double-digit growth estimated for the foreseeable future.
 
The budgetary impact of removing cannabis from Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act and legalizing its use in the United States could save billions by reducing government spending for prohibition enforcement in the criminal justice system. Additionally, billions in annual tax revenues could be generated through proposed taxation and regulation.  It is estimated that for every $1 spent on medical and recreational cannabis, there is an infusion of approximately $2.60 to the local economy, which is termed the "marijuana multiplier" effect. With the current Administration hyper-focused on growing domestic job opportunities, the Company believes that the cannabis movement will be a boon for creating such job opportunities.
 
Eco Science Solutions, Inc. has no control of the legislative environment, while Management believes that the cannabis and cannabis related markets will only become more main-stream, it is important to indicate that the removal of cannabis from Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act, the most tightly restricted category reserved for drugs that have "no currently accepted medical use," has been proposed repeatedly since 1972 and has not been granted.
 
Rescheduling proponents argue that cannabis does not meet the Controlled Substances Act's strict criteria for placement in Schedule I and so the government is required by law to permit medical use or to remove the drug from federal control altogether. The US government, on the other hand, maintains that cannabis is dangerous enough to merit Schedule I status. The dispute is based on differing views on both how the Act should be interpreted and what kinds of scientific evidence are most relevant to the rescheduling decision.
 
The Act provides a process for rescheduling controlled substances by petitioning the Drug Enforcement Administration. The first petition under this process was filed in 1972 to allow cannabis to be legally prescribed by physicians. The petition was ultimately denied after 22 years of court challenges, but a pill form of cannabis's psychoactive ingredient, THC, was rescheduled in 1985 to allow prescription under schedule II. In 1999, it was again rescheduled to allow prescription under schedule III.
 
A second petition, based on claims related to clinical studies, was denied in 2001. The most recent rescheduling petition filed by medical cannabis advocates was in 2002, but it was denied by the DEA in July 2011. Subsequently, medical cannabis advocacy group Americans for Safe Access filed an appeal,  Americans for Safe Access v. Drug Enforcement Administration  in January 2012 with the District of Columbia Circuit, which was heard on 16 October 2012 and denied on 22 January 2013.
 
Currently, the FDA is conducting an analysis, at the request of the DEA, on whether marijuana should be downgraded, said Douglas Throckmorton, Deputy Director for Regulatory Programs at the FDA, at a congressional hearing in June 2014. In August 2016, the DEA reaffirmed its position and refused to remove Schedule I classification. However, the DEA announced that it will end restrictions on the supply of marijuana to researchers and drug companies that had previously only been available from the government's own facility at the University of Mississippi.

On January 4, 2018 the office of the Attorney General published a memo regarding Marijuana Enforcement that rescinds Obama-era directives easing federal enforcement.  While marijuana has always been illegal under federal law, as noted above, certain states have legalized adult usage under various local laws which govern substance usage and limits. In the January 8, 2018 memo, Jefferson B. Sessions, Attorney General has indicated enforcement decisions will be left up to the U.S. Attorney's in the respective States clearly indicating that the burden is with "federal prosecutors deciding which cases to prosecute by weighing all relevant considerations, including federal law enforcement priorities set by the Attorney General, the seriousness of the crime, the deterrent effect of federal prosecution, and the cumulative impact of particular crimes on the community."
21

The Company does not believe this directive will have a substantive impact on its planned operations.
 
On April 13, 2018 it was announced that President Donald Trump had promised Senate Republican Cory Gardner that he will support congressional efforts to protect states that have legalized marijuana, defusing a months-long standoff between Sen. Cory Gardner and the administration over Justice Department nominees. Trump told Gardner that despite the DOJ memo of January 4, 2018, the marijuana industry in Colorado will not be targeted. A bill has not been finalized, but discussion has commenced to find legislation that would, in effect, make clear the federal government cannot interfere with states that have voted to legalize marijuana.

A component of our business is involved with the medical marijuana category.

Because the business activities of businesses, engaged in the medicinal cannabis industry, that we may direct our customers is illegal under federal law, we may be deemed to be aiding and abetting illegal activities through the location services that we provide to our customers, relative to the cannabis industry.  As a result, we may be subject to actions by law enforcement authorities, which would materially and adversely affect our business .
 
Under United States federal law, the possession, use, cultivation, and transfer of cannabis is illegal.  Although we do not engage in any of those activities, we provide services to customers that are seeking businesses that engage in those activities.  As a result, we may be subject to actions by law enforcement authorities, which would materially and adversely affect our business.

Eco Science Solutions has engaged in the development of DNA testing protocols for the purpose of evaluating a consumer's physical and mental needs. This continued investment effort will provide for a person by person mapping platform to best match the most suitable cannabis-related and/or dietary supplement products per ailment, thus maximizing the results of natural medication.

The Company's common stock is subject to rules adopted by the Commission regulating broker dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks." Those disclosure rules applicable to "penny stocks" require a broker dealer, prior to a transaction in a "penny stock" not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized list disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission. That disclosure document advises an investor that investment in "penny stocks" can be very risky and that the investor's salesperson or broker is not an impartial advisor but rather paid to sell the shares. The disclosure contains further warnings for the investor to exercise caution in connection with an investment in "penny stocks," to independently investigate the security, as well as the salesperson with whom the investor is working and to understand the risky nature of an investment in this security. The broker dealer must also provide the customer with certain other information and must make a special written determination that the "penny stock" is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Further, the rules require that, following the proposed transaction, the broker provide the customer with monthly account statements containing market information about the prices of the securities.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for its common stock. Many brokers may be unwilling to engage in transactions in its common stock because of the added disclosure requirements, thereby making it more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their shares.

The Company's common shares are issued in registered form. Empire Stock Transfer Inc., 1859 Whitney Mesa Drive, Henderson, NV 89014, (702) 818-5898, is the registrar and transfer agent for the Company's common shares.

Re-Purchase of Equity Securities

On February 26, 2016, the Company purchased back and cancelled 1,000,000 shares of common stock for $7,500 as part of a Share Buyback program.  The shares are reflected as Treasury shares on the Company's balance sheet.

Under the stock repurchase program, and depending on market conditions, shares may be repurchased from time to time at prevailing market prices through open-market or negotiated transactions in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. To remain in compliance with item 703 of Regulation S-K the Company, whether through an open market or private transaction, will at a minimum disclose on a quarterly basis all repurchases of equity securities.
 
Dividends

We have never declared any cash dividends with respect to our common stock. Future payment of dividends is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors. Although there are no material restrictions limiting, or that are likely to limit, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, we presently intend to retain future earnings, if any, for use in our business and have no present intention to pay cash dividends on our common stock.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

On September 1, 2012, the board of directors of the Company adopted the 2012 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "2012 Plan").  Under the 2012 Plan, 25,000,000 restricted shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance upon exercise of options granted from time to time under the stock option plan. The 2012 Plan is intended to assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees, directors and consultants by allowing them to participate in the Company's ownership and growth through the grant of incentive and non-qualified options. Under the 2012 Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options only to key employees and employee directors, or the Company may grant non-qualified options to employees, officers, directors and consultants. Subject to the provisions of the 2012 Plan, the board of directors will determine who shall receive options, and the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased under the options.  

As of January 31, 2016, the Company had granted a total of 6,500,000 options to purchase common shares under this plan. In connection with the options granted, a total of $2,665,000 has been recorded as deferred compensation, and was expensed during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 and prior.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2017, in accordance with the terms of the underlying option agreements, upon the termination of services to the Company by the consultant and the officer holding the granted options, all outstanding stock options expired unexercised 90 days thereafter.  As at January 31, 2017 there are no options outstanding under the 2012 Employee Stock Option Plan.

On January 1, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The purpose of this Plan is to attract, retain and motivate the officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, as well as provide a means of compensation for consultants, and to promote the success of the Company's business by providing them with appropriate incentives and rewards either through a proprietary interest in the long-term success of the Company or compensation based on fulfilling certain performance goals.
 
The Plan shall become effective and Awards may be granted on and after January 1, 2016 (the "Effective Date"). Any Awards of incentive stock options granted under the Plan are granted subject to approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date. If such approval has not been obtained within such twelve (12) month period, grants of incentive stock options shall be deemed to have been grants of non-qualified stock options.
26

 
Participants will consist of such Employees, Directors and Consultants as the Committee in its sole discretion determines and whom the Committee may designate from time to time to receive Awards under this Plan; provided, however, that Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may only be granted to those Employees, Directors and Consultants with respect to whom the Company is an "eligible issuer" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The designation of an individual as a Participant in any year shall not require that the Committee designate such individual to receive an Award in any other year or to receive the same type or amount of Award in any other year.
 
Awards under this Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of: (a) Non-Restricted Employee Benefit Plan Stock; (b) Restricted Stock; and (c) Other Stock-Based Awards. Awards granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements (which need not be identical) that provide additional terms and conditions associated with such Awards, including, without limitation, restrictive covenants, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and any such Award Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall prevail unless otherwise indicated in the Award Agreement.

During fiscal 2017 the Company filed two separate Form S-8's in April and November 2016 respectively for a total of 10,000,000 shares under its 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.   As of January 31, 2017, a total of 9,307,953 shares had been issued under the respective Form S-8's.

On June 20, 2017 the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, reserving a total of 15,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance from time to time. The purpose of this Plan is to attract, retain and motivate the officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, as well as provide a means of compensation for consultants, and to promote the success of the Company's business by providing them with appropriate incentives and rewards either through a proprietary interest in the long-term success of the Company or compensation based on fulfilling certain performance goals.
 
The Plan shall become effective and Awards may be granted on and after June 20, 2017 (the "Effective Date"). Any Awards of incentive stock options granted under the Plan are granted subject to approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date. If such approval has not been obtained within such twelve (12) month period, grants of incentive stock options shall be deemed to have been grants of non-qualified stock options.
 
Participants will consist of such Employees, Directors and Consultants as the Committee in its sole discretion determines and whom the Committee may designate from time to time to receive Awards under this Plan; provided, however, that Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may only be granted to those Employees, Directors and Consultants with respect to whom the Company is an "eligible issuer" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The designation of an individual as a Participant in any year shall not require that the Committee designate such individual to receive an Award in any other year or to receive the same type or amount of Award in any other year.
 
Awards under this Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of: (a) Non-Restricted Employee Benefit Plan Stock; (b) Restricted Stock; and (c) Other Stock-Based Awards. Awards granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements (which need not be identical) that provide additional terms and conditions associated with such Awards, including, without limitation, restrictive covenants, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and any such Award Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall prevail unless otherwise indicated in the Award Agreement.

During fiscal 2018, there were no options or awards granted under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan.

Any shares issued under the contract for services rendered will be issued at a 15% discount to market to the closing market price on the day before the first day of the quarter.  A further 1,000,000 restricted shares shall be issued upon commencement of the term and are subject to a six- month leak out restriction once available for resale under Rule 144. As at the date of this report the shares have not been issued.  The contract term is six months and is renewable for additional six-month terms by mutual consent of the parties.

The above issuance did not involve any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering and we believe is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The purchaser represented to us that he was an accredited investor and was acquiring the shares for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof and that he could bear the risks of the investment.

Other than as set out above, there were no sales of equity securities sold during the period covered by this Report that were not previously included in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended January 31, 2018, and 2017, that appear elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report.

The Company's consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
 
Overview of Current Operations
 
Results of Operations for the years ended January 31, 2018 and 2017
 
During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has not generated any revenues. While we did enter into amendments to certain licensing and marketing agreements subsequent to fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 which provide for fee-based income calculated retroactively to October 2017, as at January 31, 2018, the Company had not yet generated any revenue.
 
As at January 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had $147,332 and $244,941 in cash and total current assets.
 
During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $22,675,518 of which $18,400,000 is related to the impairment of goodwill relative to 16,000,000 shares of restricted common stock issued in respect to the acquisition of Ga-Du Corporation, a Nevada corporation, with no similar expense in fiscal 2017. During fiscal 2017, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $24,845,255, of which $22,138,000 was stock-based compensation as a result of the issuance of certain stock awards prior to January 31, 2017 as director's compensation, consulting fees and legal fees, with no comparative expenses in fiscal 2018.  Overall fees incurred for management, accounting and audit, as well as consulting and legal fees were reduced substantially period over period. During fiscal 2018 and 2017 the Company incurred $1,497,715 and $2,118,037, respectively, in advertising and marketing fees in respect of the introduction of its Herbo and Fitrix apps on various media, including iOS and Android and other marketing initiatives including promotional expenses for various public venues and sponsorship fees. Research and development fees incurred in fiscal 2018 and 2017 were $670,480 and $305,092 respectively in the two comparative fiscal years.  Other operating and general and administrative expenses in the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively totaled $369,100 and $138,794 inclusive of fees to maintain our public listing, rent, travel and other costs.  The substantive increase year over year to these administrative fees is related to an increase in office expense and other general expense including travel for promotion of the Company's applications, as well as increased office rent as we added a second operating location.
 
The Company recorded interest expense of $206,560 and $35,433 in respect of certain convertible note agreements, respectively during fiscal 2018 and 2017, including amortization of debt discount of $124,895 and $12,290 respectively. During fiscal 2017 the Company recorded a loss of $9,210,151 in respect to the issuance of 4,000,000 shares of common stock in settlement of certain advertising, marketing and technology development fees incurred during the year related to its Fitrix and Herbo applications, with no similar expense in fiscal 2018. We also recorded a gain on forgiveness of debt in fiscal 2017 totaling $462,661 with no comparative transaction in fiscal 2018.  Fiscal 2018 results include interest income of $4,300 with no similar income in the prior comparative year.
 
The net loss in fiscal 2018 totaled $22,877,778 as compared to $33,628,178 in 2017.

The Company used net cash in operations of $2,704,451 and $366,030 respectively during the twelve-month periods ended January 31, 2018 and 2017, recorded $13,266 and $2,262 in net cash used for investing activities and received cash from financing activities of $2,475,695 and $605,710, predominantly as a result of certain notes payable, as well as proceeds from related party loans.

Plan of Operation

The Company changed the focus of its business at the close of fiscal 2016 to operate in the eco friendly technology sector using social media sites and offering apps to generate advertising revenues and download fees. During fiscal 2017 the Company laid the groundwork for income generation from these services by investing in ongoing development of its applications, websites and visibility in both the local and global market.  The Company has invested heavily in advertising to allow its applications and ecommerce website visibility on a global stage. During fiscal 2018 we further added to our business portfolio with the acquisition of Ga-Du corporation and the entry into a licensing and marketing agreement that should see the Company generating revenues in fiscal 2019.  The Company's need for ongoing capital by way of loans, sale of equity and/or convertible notes is expected to continue during the current fiscal year until we can establish substantive revenues from operations. We have also had to rely heavily on loans from related parties in our most recently completed fiscal year as we work to have our shares returned for quotation to the OTCMarkets QB. There are no assurances additional capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or that this equity line will be available to us when needed.
 
Future funding could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities and/or amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Any future funding might require the Company to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which might not be available on terms favorable to the Company, or at all, and such financing, if available, might be dilutive.
   
Going Concern
 
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,697,722 and an accumulated deficit of $ 66,398,549 . The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of January 31, 2018, the Company had total current assets of $147,332, and total current liabilities of $4,845,054. The Company has limited financial resources available outside loans from its officers and directors and funds it has obtained through use of convertible debt instruments and loans with third parties.  While the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement to sell up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock (Ref: Note 13(b) to the financial statements contained herein) we have been unable to obtain any funding under this agreement in the most recently completed fiscal year. There can be no guarantee the Company will receive proceeds from loans, related party advances or convertible notes sufficient to meet its ongoing operational overheads.  While we have commenced generating modest revenue subsequent to the fiscal year end to offset some of our existing operating expenditures, it is not presently suffiicient to meet our operational shortfalls.  Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. As noted, additional working capital may be sought through additional debt or equity private placements, additional notes payable to banks or related parties (officers, directors or stockholders), or from other available funding sources at market rates of interest, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors, including the nature and prospects of any business to be acquired and the economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing is sought. During the most recently completed fiscal year management has obtained additional funding with success, however there is no guarantee we will be able to continue to obtain financing if and when required. The current economic downturn may make it difficult to find new capital sources for the Company should they be required.

Future Financings
 
We anticipate continuing to rely on related party and third party loans and equity sales of our common shares and/or shares for services rendered in order to continue to fund our business operations in the event of ongoing operational shortfalls. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any of additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our research and development activities.

Revenue
 
Subsequent to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 the Company has commenced generating modest revenue under the terms of the LMMA with AFN.  We expect in fiscal 2019 to see increasing revenues from this marketing agreement and continue to work to monetize our various apps and other business segments.

Cost of sales

Costs of sales are expected to include licensing, marketing and maintenance fees in respect to our proprietary software platform and licensed software services.  In addition, we can expect to incur fees associated with gaining followers for our YouTube channels and the advertising of our downloadable applications. Revenue earned from from our license and marketing agreement are net of costs.

General and administrative expenses for fiscal 2017 include a total of $22,113,000 relative to 8,100,000 shares issued at fair market value of $2.73 per share for management, consulting and legal fees in January 2017 and a further 100,000 shares issued at 0.25 per share valued at $25,000 in January 2016.  Of this amount a total of $16,380,000 relates to compensation of management and $5,460,000 as compensation for legal and consulting services provided during the prior fiscal year.  There were no similar transactions in fiscal 2018, resulting in a substantive decline to each of Legal, accounting and audit fees and management and consulting fees in the current fiscal year.  In addition, advertising and marketing expenses of $2,118,037 incurred during fiscal 2017 include stock based fees of $273,000 relative to marketing services provided,  as well as cash fees for placement of advertisements, click-through programs and traffic generation on the Company's various websites, apps, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram sites.  Results in fiscal 2018 for the same services were all cash based. Hosting and maintenance fees for the Company's internet presence are included in the other general expenses and fees for the ongoing technical development and content upgrades of the Company's various sites and applications are included in research and development fees.

Contractual Obligations

As a "smaller reporting company", the Company is not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. The Company believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of the Company's financial statements is critical to an understanding of its consolidated financial statements.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
30


Business Combinations

The acquisition of subsidiary is accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. The acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognized as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognized.

Goodwill
 
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of an entity represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the entity recognized at the date of acquisition.
 
Goodwill is initially recognized as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. 

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Technology and licensing rights (Intangible assets)
 
Technology and licensing rights are recorded at cost and capitalized and are reviewed for impairment at a minimum of once per year or whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest a need for evaluation.

Advertising and Marketing Costs   
 
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $1,497,715 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 and $2,118,037 in the same period ended January 31, 2017. Advertising and marketing costs include ad placement and click through programs placed on a wide network of mediums acquired from advertising consolidators including Outbrain, MGID, Rev Content, Yahoo, MSN, AOL, Google and others for the full scope of the Company's brands including the Herbo and Ftirix apps for all platforms, GooglePlay, iOS, Android, as well as the corporate e-commence site and all the other underlying supporting social media platforms such as YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Further the Company incurs other advertising expense in respect to its attendance at various venues to promote our business objectives.

 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 and January 31, 2017.

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1  – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2  – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3  – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
31


Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605,  Revenue Recognition . Revenue is recognized when all the criteria have been met:

• When persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
• The services have been provided to the customer.
• The fee is fixed or determinable.
• Collectability is reasonably assured.

As of January 31, 2018, no revenue has been recognized. While the Company has entered into an LMMA under which we are entitled to fee-based revenue on a profit sharing basis, the Company has determined that when recording its revenue, the monthly income is not clearly determinable until the fees are paid to the Company by AFN.  As at January 31, 2018 fees payable by AFN for the period October 2017 through January 31, 2018 as reconciled in commission reports received from AFN have not been received by the Company. Because of this, the Company has determined to record its revenue in respect to the LMMA on the cash basis.  In the future, should the fee structure and reporting process become more easily determinable, the recognition method may change. Pursuant to AFN's revenue reports, the amount payable to Ga-Du Corporation is $2,041 (10% of net revenue generated by Colorado Business) at January 31, 2018. The Company will record the revenue once we receive the proceeds.

Cost of Revenue
 
Costs of revenue consist of the direct expenses incurred to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Our cost of revenue will consist consists primarily of fees associated with the operation of our social media venues and fulfillment of specific customer advertising campaigns related to our downloadable apps. In the case of revenue earned by our wholly owned subsidiary, proceeds allocated to our revenue interest are net of associated costs.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,  Share-Based Payments , using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Convertible Debt and Beneficial Conversion Features
 
The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.
 
Stock Settled Debt
 
In certain instances, the Company will issue convertible notes which contain a provision in which the price of the conversion feature is priced at a fixed discount to the trading price of the Company's common shares as traded in the over-the-counter market.  In these instances, the Company records a liability, in addition to the principal amount of the convertible note, as stock-settled debt for the fixed value transferred to the convertible note holder from the fixed discount conversion feature.  As of January 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company had recorded within Convertible Notes, net of discount, the amount of $350,000 and $nil for the value of the stock settled debt for certain convertible notes (see Note 8).
32


Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260,  Earning per Share .  ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In August of 2017, the FASB issued guidance to better align the financial reporting related to hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities and to simplify the application of current hedge accounting guidance. Entities are required to apply the guidance using a modified retrospective method as of the period of adoption. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management is evaluating.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The new guidance provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The accounting standard update will be effective for The Company beginning January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07,  Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.  The ASU requires an entity to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. The service cost component is presented in the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period and the other components of net benefit costs are presented separately as other income/expense below income from operations. ASU 2017-07 will be effective for the Company in our fiscal year and interim periods beginning November 1, 2018.

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Eco Science Solutions, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") as of January 31, 2018 and 2017, 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 January 31, 2018 and 2017, 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.
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's significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ECO SCIENCE SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009 under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. On January 8, 2014, the Company changed its name from Pristine Solutions, Inc. to Eco Science Solutions, Inc.  

During fiscal 2016 the Company changed its business focus and on January 1, 2016, the Company entered into a technology licensing and marketing support agreement with Separation Degrees – One, Inc. ("SDOI") that was focused on the development, licensing and management of on-going technology solutions and marketing campaigns for ESSI's initiatives. Additionally, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with SDOI wherein the Company acquired a proprietary messaging and customer relationship management software platform from SDOI.

On January 11, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized the creation of 1,000 shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock. The holder of the shares of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock has the right to vote those shares of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock regarding any matter or action that is required to be submitted to the shareholders of the Company for approval. The vote of each share of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock is equal to and counted as 10 times the votes of all of the shares of the Company's (i) common stock, and (ii) other voting preferred stock issued and outstanding on the date of each and every vote or consent of the shareholders of the Company regarding each and every matter submitted to the shareholders of the Company for approval. The Agreement with SDOI was revised so that SDOI received 500,000 shares of Common Stock rather than Preferred Shares; no Preferred Shares were issued to SDOI.  In addition to the issuance of the 500,000 shares of common stock as consideration for the Asset Purchase Agreement with SDOI, the Company agreed further to settle all invoices received for services rendered by SDOI, as well as advertising fees incurred, by way of issuance of common stock at a 30% discount to market as S-8 shares.

On January 10, 2017, the Company entered into a Cancellation and Release Agreement with SDOI wherein the Company agreed to issue 4,000,000 common shares to SDOI (or its designee) in exchange for the cancellation of the $1,920,424 worth of remaining outstanding invoices and fees owed to SDOI.

On June 21, 2017,  Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (ESSI) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement ("SPA") with the shareholders of  Ga-Du Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Ga-Du", "Sellers"), wherein, ESSI agreed to purchase, and Sellers agreed to sell 100% of the shares of capital stock of Ga-Du to ESSI, in exchange for fifteen million (15,000,000) shares of ESSI Common Stock, to be issued to Sellers, pursuant to the SPA.  In addition, the SPA called for the issuance of an additional 15,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the Ga-Du Founders when they brought a bank equity interest to the Company.  Subsequently, effective July 30, 2017 the Company and the stockholders of Ga-Du entered into certain amendments to the original June 21, 2017, SPA cancelling the term regarding the issuance of an additional 15,000,000 Shares.

Additionally, on September 22, 2017, and in order to avoid diluting the holdings of existing ESSI Shareholders, Jeffery and Don Taylor, CEO and CFO of ESSI, agreed to return 8,000,000 Shares each of ESSI's Common Stock of their own to the Company for cancellation, effective September 22, 2017.

Following the closing of the SPA, Ga-Du is a wholly owned subsidiary of ESSI, bringing to ESSI a Financial Services Platform, Testing Labs, as well as Inventory Control and Advisory Software Platforms, thus completing the ESSI product suite to benefit both consumer and professional customers of the Company.

On July 26, 2017, all of the Shares of an Uruguayan entity, Holway Sociedad Anonima ("Holway", "Holway SA") were purchased by certain former shareholders of Ga-Du who thereafter became the sole shareholders of Holway.  Holway's objective is to perform business in the Free-trade zone in Uruguay in accordance with the laws of the Free-trade zone; in every kind of industrial, commercial or other activity relating to its business of providing financial services.  On September 19, 2017, the Holway shareholders transferred all of their shares of Holway to Ga-Du, and will hereafter conduct business pursuant to the Holway Uruguayan registration as Ga-Du; Doing Business As (DBA).

ECO SCIENCE SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS (cont'd)

Additionally, Holway has applied for a financial advisory services charter to perform its financial services through Ga-Du, and under the regulatory laws of the Uruguayan Central Bank.

Once the application for the Financial Advisory Services Charter is approved, Ga-Du, through its Financial Advisory Services Charter, and in conjunction with the Alliance Financial Network system, intends to provide foreign jurisdictions with legalized cannabis, a banking mechanism to conduct business relative to the cannabis industry, and within the laws governing cannabis industry in those foreign jurisdictions doing business with the United States, and in compliance with US and foreign laws relative to the cannabis industry.

Furthermore, Ga-Du will work closely with representatives of the South American MasterCard/Visa Card services, allowing Ga-Du to process merchant services through the Uruguayan entity, Holway, for transactions relative to the Cannabis industry, in countries and states where Cannabis is legalized. Presently the Company is awaiting approval of the charter prior to conducting operations under this entity.

Further, on September 22, 2017, Ga-Du Corporation entered into an Assignment Agreement with G&L Enterprises, wherein G&L Enterprises assigned, to Ga-Du Corporation, all of its rights, interest in, and obligations under a License and Master Marketing Agreement (LMMA) it entered into with Alliance Financial Network, Inc. ("AFN", "Alliance") on September 6, 2017.

On March 5, 2018, an Addendum to the LMMA was entered into and agreed upon, wherein the LMMA was amended to reflect the right of Ga-Du to receive revenue from Colorado businesses; the LMMA originally excluded existing Colorado business as any revenue generating businesses. In addition the revenue split under the LMMA was also revised.  Among other things, in exchange for the split, where under Ga-Du is to receive 50% of all revenues, Ga-Du agreed to pay to Alliance $405,000 in two tranches, for operational expenses and business development in the State of Colorado as well as in other states. As a result, Ga-Du is entitled to receive 10% of all of Alliance's net revenue earned from Colorado revenues from October 15, 2017 forward .

Final payments were made to Alliance as agreed upon in the Addendum to the LMMA, making the Addendum Effective.  As part of the agreed final payment $170,000 was advanced in cash by Mr. Lewis, the CEO of Ga-Du, as a loan to the Company, and Mr. Rountree, our COO, assumed the remaining $35,000 in the form of a debt assignment between a third party and Alliance.  As a result, the Company was notified of its first revenues under the LMMA totaling $ 2,041 (10% of net revenue generated by Colorado Business), as at January 31, 2018 .  The Company intends to record revenues as of the date funds are received into our accounts.  Subsequent to the year ended January 31, 2018, the Company and Alliance determined the $35K in amounts payable to a third party assumed by Mr. Rountree would be paid in cash, and the note assignment canceled. During July and August 2018, Mr. Rountree remitted the final $35,000 in payments for the benefit of Alliance, which amount has been subsequently included in related party payables.
With the acquisition of Ga-Du, ESSI's  product suite represent is now an enclosed ecosystem for business location, localized communications between consumers and business operators, on-topic social networking, inventory management / selection, payment facilitation and delivery arrangement. The Company's holistic commerce and content platform enables health, wellness and alternative medicine enthusiasts to easily locate, access, and connect with others to facilitate the research of and purchasing of eco-science friendly products.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,697,722 and an accumulated deficit of $ 66,398,549 . The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)

Principals of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of  Eco Science Solutions, Inc.  and its wholly-owned subsidiary,  Ga-Du Corporation . All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of January 31, 2018, and January 31, 2017, respectively, the Company had cash, but no cash equivalents. 

Business Combinations

The acquisition of subsidiary is accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. The acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognized as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognized.

Goodwill
 
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of an entity represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the entity recognized at the date of acquisition.
 
Goodwill is initially recognized as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. 

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization on property and equipment are determined using the straight-line method over the three to five year estimated useful lives of the assets.

Technology and licensing rights (Intangible assets)
 
Technology and licensing rights are recorded at cost and capitalized and are reviewed for impairment at a minimum of once per year or whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest a need for evaluation.

Advertising and Marketing Costs   
 
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $1,497,715 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 and $2,118,037 in the same period ended January 31, 2017. Advertising and marketing costs include ad placement and click through programs placed on a wide network of mediums acquired from advertising consolidators including Outbrain, MGID, Rev Content, Yahoo, MSN, AOL, Google and others for the full scope of the Company's brands including the Herbo and Ftirix apps for all platforms, GooglePlay, iOS, Android, as well as the corporate e-commence site and all the other underlying supporting social media platforms such as YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 and January 31, 2017.

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1  – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2  – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3  – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605,  Revenue Recognition . Revenue is recognized when all the criteria have been met:

• When persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
• The services have been provided to the customer.
• The fee is fixed or determinable.
• Collectability is reasonably assured.

As of January 31, 2018, no revenue has been recognized. While the Company has entered into an LMMA under which we are entitled to fee-based revenue on a profit sharing basis, the Company has determined that when recording its revenue, the monthly income is not clearly determinable until the fees are paid to the Company by AFN.  As at January 31, 2018 fees payable by AFN for the period October 2017 through January 31, 2018 as reconciled in commission reports received from AFN have not been received by the Company. Because of this, the Company has determined to record its revenue in respect to the LMMA on the cash basis.  In the future, should the fee structure and reporting process become more easily determinable, the recognition method may change. Pursuant to AFN's revenue reports, the amount payable to Ga-Du Corporation is $2,041 (10% of net revenue generated by Colorado Business) at January 31, 2018. The Company will record the revenue once we receive the proceeds.

Cost of Revenue
 
Costs of revenue consist of the direct expenses incurred to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Our cost of revenue will consist consists primarily of fees associated with the operation of our social media venues and fulfillment of specific customer advertising campaigns related to our downloadable apps. In the case of revenue earned by our wholly owned subsidiary, proceeds allocated to our revenue interest are net of associated costs.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,  Share-Based Payments , using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Convertible Debt and Beneficial Conversion Features
 
The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.
 
Stock Settled Debt
 
In certain instances, the Company will issue convertible notes which contain a provision in which the price of the conversion feature is priced at a fixed discount to the trading price of the Company's common shares as traded in the over-the-counter market.  In these instances, the Company records a liability, in addition to the principal amount of the convertible note, as stock-settled debt for the fixed value transferred to the convertible note holder from the fixed discount conversion feature.  As of January 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company had recorded within Convertible Notes, net of discount, the amount of $350,000 and $nil for the value of the stock settled debt for certain convertible notes (see Note 8).

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260,  Earning per Share .  ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In August of 2017, the FASB issued guidance to better align the financial reporting related to hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities and to simplify the application of current hedge accounting guidance. Entities are required to apply the guidance using a modified retrospective method as of the period of adoption. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management is evaluating.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The new guidance provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The accounting standard update will be effective for The Company beginning January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07,  Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.  The ASU requires an entity to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. The service cost component is presented in the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period and the other components of net benefit costs are presented separately as other income/expense below income from operations. ASU 2017-07 will be effective for the Company in our fiscal year and interim periods beginning November 1, 2018.

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

As of January 31, 2016,  1,000  Series A Voting Preferred Stock had not yet been issued and $35,500 remained on the balance sheets as liabilities for issuance of shares. As of January 31, 2017, the determination to issue 1,000 shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock was reversed and $nil remained on the balance sheets as liabilities for issuance of shares.

NOTE 17: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On March 5, 2018, an Addendum to that certain LMMA entered into between Ga-Du, the Company and AFN. (d/b/a eXPO TM ) ("Alliance", "eXPO TM "), and dated September 6, 2017, was entered into and agreed upon, wherein the LMMA was amended to reflect the right of Ga-Du to receive revenue from Colorado businesses; the LMMA originally excluded existing Colorado business as any revenue generating businesses.

The Addendum allows for the following split:

"With respect to the fee split between Alliance and Ga-Du as to income derived from cash depository business designated by eXPO TM  as "Legacy Cash" deposited  from businesses in the Cannabis industry, or other cash depository business brought in by Ga-Du, the Company shall receive fifty percent (50%) of all revenues and Ga-Du shall receive fifty percent (50%) of all such revenues (the "Cash Depository Revenues")".

Among other things, in exchange for the split, whereby Ga-Du is to receive 50% of all revenues, Ga-Du agreed to pay to Alliance $405,000 in two tranches, for operational expenses and business development in the State of Colorado as well as in other states.

Additionally, Ga-Du, from October 15, 2017, and going forward, is entitled to receive 10% of all of Alliance's net revenue earned from Colorado revenues.

The payment to Alliance in the amount of $405,000 was concluded and has been recorded as  research, development, and promotional expenses subsequent to the year ended January 31, 2018.

Pursuant to Alliance's revenue reports, the amount payable to Ga-Du Corporation is $2,041 (10% of net revenue generated by Colorado Business) as at January 31, 2018. The Company will record the revenue once we receive the proceeds.

On April 1, 2018, the Company entered into a Sponsorship Agreement with Fruit of Life Productions, LLC.  The terms of the Agreement allow the Company to sponsor Kaya Fest 2018, to be held in San Bernardino, California, and to be acknowledged by Fruit of Life Productions as a Sponsor at Kaya Fest.  In return, the Company agrees to pay Fruit of Life Productions $250,000.  Sponsorship benefits will include, among other things, the following:

The term of the Agreement began on April 1, 2018, and will continue until April 30, 2018, at 11:59 p.m. at the closing of the Kaya Fest.

On April 15, 2018 the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Standard Consulting LLC (the  "Consultant") where under the Consultant will provide business development and evaluation services relative to the strategic growth of the Company.  Further the Consultant will work with the CEO and CFO to develop new products, provide support for the Company's existing product suite, and provide logistical support services for manufacturing, warehousing, shipping and customer service as may be required.  Under the terms of the contract the Consultant shall receive an annual fee of $120,000, payable quarterly on the first day of each quarter with a commencement date of May 1, 2018. Further the Company may settle amounts payable to Consultant by way of issuance of shares on 15 days notice. Any shares issued under the contract for services rendered will be issued at a 15% discount to market to the closing market price on the day before the first day of the quarter.  A further 1,000,000 restricted shares shall be issued upon commencement of the term and are subject to a six- month leak out restriction once available for resale under Rule 144. As at the date of this report the shares have not been issued.  The contract term is six months and is renewable for additional six month terms by mutual consent of the parties.

Subsequent to the year ended January 31, 2018 Mr. Michael Rountree, our COO advanced a total of $35,000 to clear the remaining balance payable to Alliance under certain agreements as more fully described in Note 7 above. Further Mr. Rountree has advanced $185,606 for general operating capital.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under supervision and with the participation of the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of January 31, 2018, because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR") described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
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 under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 14d-14(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed 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.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting reliability and financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2018. In making the assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework 2013. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of January 31, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that material weaknesses in ICFR existed as more fully described below.

As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, "An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements" established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of January 31, 2018:
 
1)  
Lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert, and no independent directors. We do not have any members of the Board who are independent directors and we do not have an audit committee. These factors may be counter to corporate governance practices as defined by the various stock exchanges and may lead to less supervision over management;
2)  
Insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;

Management's Remediation Initiatives

As of January 31, 2018, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that during the period covered by this report, the internal controls and procedures were not effective due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting. However, management believes these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results. During the course of our evaluation, we did not discover any fraud involving management or any other personnel who play a significant role in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting.

Due to a lack of financial and personnel resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until, if ever, we acquire sufficient financing and staff to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permits. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended January 31, 2017, fairly presents our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods covered, as identified, in all material respects.
 
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above were the result of the scale of our operations and intrinsic to our small size. Management also believes that these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the period covered by this report, there were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Other than as set out above, the Company knows of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against it, nor is the Company involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which its director, officer or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to its interest.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

We do not have a standing audit committee, an audit committee financial expert, or any committee or person performing a similar function. We do not have any board committees including a nominating, compensation, or executive committee. We currently have minimal operating revenues which are not presently sufficient to meet associated costs. Presently, we have no independent directors. Management does not believe that it would be in our best interests at this time to retain independent directors to sit on an audit committee or any other committee. If we are able to grow our business and increase our operations in the future, then we will likely seek out and retain independent directors and form audit, compensation, and other applicable committees. Further, we do not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders. Our two directors perform all functions that would otherwise be performed by committees.
 
Potential Conflicts of Interest
 
We are not aware of any conflicts of interest with our directors and officers.
 
Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics within the meaning of Item 406(b) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Code of Ethics applies to directors and senior officers, such as the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller, and persons performing similar functions.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to the Company under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended January 31, 2018, Forms 5 and any amendments thereto furnished to the Company with respect to the year ended January 31, 2018, and the representations made by the reporting persons to the Company, the Company believes that during the year ended January 31, 2018, its executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities are all delinquent in completing at least one report under the Section 16(a) filing requirements.

Equity Compensation Plan

2012 Employee Stock Option Plan

On September 1, 2012, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Option Plan ("2012 Plan"), wherein 25,000,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance. The 2012 Plan is intended to assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees, directors and consultants by allowing them to participate in the Company's ownership and growth through the grant of incentive and non-qualified options.  As of January 31, 2015, the Company has granted a total of 6,500,000 options to purchase common stock shares.

On September 1, 2012, the Company, under its 2012 Plan, granted qualified stock options to purchase 6,500,000 shares of its common stock.  Of the total options granted, 5,000,000 were granted to the President of the Company (the "Executive Options") at $0.10 per share, and 1,500,000 were granted to a consultant at $0.25 per share (collectively, the "Options").  The Options are exercisable for a period of five years, vest quarterly over a period of two years, and were valued using the Black-Scholes valuation method at $0.41 per share, or $2,665,000, which is being amortized over a 36-month period. Due to the change in control of the Company that took place on November 26, 2013, the 5,000,000 Executive Options became fully exercisable, in accordance with the accelerated vesting clause contained within the Executive's Employment Agreement.

During fiscal 2017, in accordance with the terms of the underlying option agreements, upon the termination of services to the Company by the consultant and the officer holding the options, all outstanding stock options expired unexercised 90 days thereafter.

2016 Equity Incentive Plan

On January 1, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan"). The purpose of this Plan is to attract, retain and motivate the officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, as well as provide a means of compensation for consultants, and to promote the success of the Company's business by providing them with appropriate incentives and rewards either through a proprietary interest in the long-term success of the Company or compensation based on fulfilling certain performance goals.
 
The Plan shall become effective and Awards may be granted on and after January 1, 2016 (the "Effective Date"). Any Awards of incentive stock options granted under the Plan are granted subject to approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date. If such approval has not been obtained within such twelve (12) month period, grants of incentive stock options shall be deemed to have been grants of non-qualified stock options.
 
Participants will consist of such Employees, Directors and Consultants as the Committee in its sole discretion determines and whom the Committee may designate from time to time to receive Awards under this Plan; provided, however, that Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may only be granted to those Employees, Directors and Consultants with respect to whom the Company is an "eligible issuer" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The designation of an individual as a Participant in any year shall not require that the Committee designate such individual to receive an Award in any other year or to receive the same type or amount of Award in any other year.
 
Awards under this Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of: (a) Non-Restricted Employee Benefit Plan Stock; (b) Restricted Stock; and (c) Other Stock-Based Awards.

Any Awards of incentive stock options granted under the Plan are granted subject to approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date.

The designation of an individual as a Participant in any year shall not require that the Committee designate such individual to receive an Award in any other year or to receive the same type or amount of Award in any other year.
 
Awards under this Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of: (a) Non-Restricted Employee Benefit Plan Stock; (b) Restricted Stock; and (c) Other Stock-Based Awards. Awards granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements (which need not be identical) that provide additional terms and conditions associated with such Awards, including, without limitation, restrictive covenants, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and any such Award Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall prevail unless otherwise indicated in the Award Agreement.
