E X ACTUS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2019
 
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF ORGANIZATION  
 
Organization and Business Description
 
Exactus, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 18, 2008, as “Solid Solar Energy, Inc.” in the State of Nevada as a for-profit Company.  On May 16, 2013, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to change its name to “Spiral Energy Tech., Inc.”.  On February 29, 2016, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Exactus BioSolutions, Inc. (“Exactus BioSolutions”) pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement, dated February 29, 2016, with Exactus BioSolutions (the “Share Exchange”). The Company issued 30 million shares of -designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock to the shareholders of Exactus BioSolutions in the Share Exchange, representing approximately 87% of voting control of the Company upon consummation of the Share Exchange. As a result of the Share Exchange, Exactus BioSolutions became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exactus, Inc. Effective March 22, 2016, the Company changed its corporate name to “Exactus, Inc.” via a merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Exactus Acquisition Corp.  Following the Share Exchange, the Company became a life science company that planned to develop and commercialize Point-of-Care (“POC”) diagnostics for measuring proteolytic enzymes in the blood based on a proprietary detection platform. The Company is no longer pursuing this business while it seeks a buyer to purchase the rights to any technology developed by the Company for the POC business.
 
In December 2018, the Company expanded its focus to pursue opportunities in Cannabidiol (“CBD”). This decision was based in part on the passing of The Hemp Farming Act of 2018. The Act was signed into law during December 2018 and removes hemp (cannabis with less than 0.3% THC) from the Schedule I controlled substances list. Following passage, CBD derived from industrial hemp became legal in the US under federal law and in all 50 states, opening the door to develop and sell hemp-based CBD products nationwide. The Company’s goal is to rapidly establish one or more principal sources of supply and to develop wholesale and retail sales channels for CBD end-products to be sold to humans and for animal health, such as nutraceuticals, supplements and pet and farm products. The Company intends to follow regulatorily compliant pathways by adopting practices established by the FDA for CBD.
 
On January 11, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-8 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) including shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s outstanding convertible securities. All share and per share values of the Company’s common stock for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are retroactively restated for the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

The Company identified the rapidly growing hemp-based CBD market as a valuable target for a new company focus. On January 8, 2019, the Company entered into a Master Product Development and Supply Agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ceed2Med LLC (“C2M”). In consideration for the Development Agreement (see Note 9), C2M was issued 8,385,691 shares of our common stock on January 8, 2019. Additionally, the Company granted immediately vested 10 year options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock, with exercise price of $0.32 per share to certain C2M founders. As a result, C2M became the Company’s largest shareholder holding (inclusive of the vested options held by its founders) approximately 51% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the date of the Development Agreement. Consequently, such transaction resulted in a change of control whereby, C2M obtained majority control through its common stock ownership (See Note 9). In connection with this agreement, the Company received access to expertise, resources, skills and experience suitable for production of CBD rich ingredients including isolates, distillates, water soluble, and proprietary formulations. Under the Agreement, the Company has been allotted a minimum of 50 and up to 300 kilograms per month, and up to 2,500 kilograms annually, of CBD rich ingredients for resale. The Company expects to be able to offer tinctures, edibles, capsules, topical solutions and animal health products manufactured for the Company by C2M to satisfy demand for branded and white-label products that the Company intends to offer to sell in the future. The Company expects to begin marketing during the third quarter of 2019.
 
On March 11, 2019, with the assistance of C2M and assignment of rights, the Company acquired a 50.1% limited liability membership interest in Exactus One World, LLC (“EOW”), an Oregon limited liability company formed on January 25, 2019, in order to produce industrial hemp for its own use. Prior to the acquisition, EOW had no operating activities. The Company acquired its 50.1% limited liability membership interest pursuant to a Subscription Agreement and a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (See Note 3). Following the events described above, the Company entered into the business of production and selling of industrial hemp.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2019
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
 
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of its 50.1% subsidiary, EOW. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information, which includes consolidated unaudited interim financial statements and present the consolidated unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and its wholly- owned subsidiaries as of March 31, 2019. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and for the periods then ended, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Report on Form 10K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
 
Going concern
 
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern concept contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. No adjustment has been made to the carrying amount and classification of the Company’s assets and the carrying amount of its liabilities based on the going concern uncertainty. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss attributable to Exactus Inc. common shareholders of $2,278,713 and $1,073,846 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The net cash used in operating activities was $1,833,755 for the months ended March 31, 2019. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit and working capital deficit of $12,816,605 and $297,562, respectively, at March 31, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. The Company is seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund its operations in the future. Although the Company has historically raised capital from sales of common shares and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes, there is no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail its operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Over the last several months the Company and its advisors have been evaluating numerous opportunities and relationships to increase shareholder value. The Company expects to realize revenue through our efforts, if successful, to sell wholesale and retail finished products to third parties. However, as the Company is in a start-up phase, in a new business venture, in a rapidly evolving industry, many of our costs and challenges are new and unknown. In order to fund the Company’s activities, the Company will need to raise additional capital either through the issuance of equity and/or the issuance of debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company received proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock of approximately $3.3 million.
 
Use of Estimates  
 
The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP which 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet, and revenues and expenses for the period then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to the fair value of derivative liabilities, useful life of property and equipment, fair value of right of use assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term, contingent liabilities, and fair value of non-cash equity transactions.

Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. The guidance prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value and establishes a three-tier value hierarchy that distinguishes among the following:
 
Level 1—Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
 
Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and models for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
 
Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
 
The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

As of March 31, 2019, the Company has no assets that are re-measured at fair value.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of those investments approximates their fair market value due to their short maturity and liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions, which amounts may at times exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on such accounts and we do not believe we are exposed to any significant credit risk. The Company had $922,915 and $0 cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents were $1,172,915 and $1,960 at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
 
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets of $58,580 and $12,330 at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, consist primarily of costs paid for future services which will occur within a year. Prepaid expenses may include prepayments in cash for an operating lease, consulting, and insurance fees which are being amortized over the terms of their respective agreements.
 
Inventory
 
The Company values inventory, consisting of raw materials, at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on the first-in and first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company reduces inventory for the diminution of value, resulting from product obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of the estimated net realizable value include (i) estimates of future demand, and (ii) competitive pricing pressures. The Company did not record any allowance related to the inventory as of March 31, 2019. The inventory is primarily composed of raw materials which consisted of hemp seeds and fertilizers amounting to $422,819 as of March 31, 2019.

Advances to suppliers
 
Advances to a supplier represents the cash paid in advance for the purchase of inventory. The advances to a supplier are interest free and unsecured. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, advances to the Company’s major supplier, C2M, who is also a related party, amounted to $1,017,225 and $0, respectively (see Note 9). Upon shipment of the purchased inventory, the Company reclassifies or records such advances to the supplier into inventory.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of 3 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired, or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations.
 
Impairment of long-lived assets
 
In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.
 
Derivatives and Hedging- Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity
 
In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815 “ Derivatives and Hedging ” the embedded conversion features in the convertible notes (see Note 7) are not considered to be indexed to the Company’s stock. As a result, these are required to be accounted for as derivative financial liabilities and have been recognized as liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the derivative financial liabilities are determined using a binomial model with Monte Carlo simulation and is affected by changes in inputs to that model including the Company’s stock price, expected stock price volatility, the expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. The derivative financial liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date and any changes in fair value is recognized as a component in other income (expenses).
 
Revenue Recognition
 
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 and the related amendments Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires revenue to be recognized in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps:
 
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
 
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
 
Step 3: Determine the transaction price.
 
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
 
Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
 
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at the point in time when products are shipped or delivered to the customer, which is when the customer has title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership. Therefore, the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation (shipment of product). The Company primarily receives fixed consideration for sales of product.

Research and Development Expenses
 
The Company follow ASC 730-10, “ Research and Development ,” and expenses research and development costs when incurred.  Accordingly, third-party research and development costs, including designing, prototyping and testing of product, are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or milestone results have been achieved. Indirect costs are allocated based on percentage usage related to the research and development.   Research and development costs of $15,000 and $75,000 were incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and are included in operating expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
 
Through March 31, 2018, pursuant to ASC 505-50 - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, were recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service period of the consulting arrangement or until performance conditions are expected to be met. Using a Black Scholes valuation model, the Company periodically reassessed the fair value of non-employee options until service conditions are met, which generally aligns with the vesting period of the options, and the Company adjusts the expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements accordingly. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of the stock-based compensation guidance in ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. ASU No. 2018-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, but entities may not adopt prior to adopting the new revenue recognition guidance in ASC 606. The Company adoption did not have any material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The awards to consultants and other third-parties are then revalued, or the total compensation is recalculated, based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date.
 
Related Parties
 
We follow ASC 850, “ Related Party Disclosures ,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.  
 
Earnings per Share
 
We compute basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “ Earnings per Share ”. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if preferred stock converted to common stock and warrants are exercised.  Preferred stock and warrants are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation if their effect is anti-dilutive.  As of March 31, 2018, the Company had 1,860,506 potential shares and warrants that were excluded from our calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per shares because their impact was anti-dilutive:

Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
 
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
 
Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
 
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement”, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open.  The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810-10-65, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). This ASC clarifies that a non-controlling (minority) interest in subsidiaries is an ownership interest in the entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. It also requires consolidated net income to include the amounts attributable to both the parent and non-controlling interest, with disclosure on the face of the consolidated income statement of the amounts attributed to the parent and to the non-controlling interest. In accordance with ASC 810-10-45-21, those losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest in subsidiaries may exceed their interests in the subsidiary’s equity. The excess and any further losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest shall be attributed to those interests even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance. On March 11, 2019, the Company acquired a 50.1% limited liability membership interest in EOW, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement and a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (see Note 3).
 
Leases
 
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases and; (ii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assessed whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments.
 
Operating lease ROU assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Currently, share-based payment arrangements to nonemployees are accounted for under ASC 718, while nonemployee share-based payments issued for goods and services are accounted for under ASC 505-50. Before the amendment, the major difference for the Company (but not limited to) was the determination of measurement date which generally is the date on which the measurement of equity classified share-based payments becomes fixed. Equity classified share-based payments for employees was fixed at the time of grant and equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are no longer measured at the earlier of the date which a commitment for performance by the counterparty is reached or the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. They are now measured at the grant date of the award which is the same as share-based payments for employees. The Company adopted the requirements of the new rule in the first quarter of 2019.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (ASU 2017-04). The standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments of ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity will recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, but the loss cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the calendar year ending December 31, 2020. The amendments require a prospective approach to adoption and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
 
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, which amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Part I of ASU No. 2017-11, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-11 on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
We have reviewed the FASB issued ASU accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. We have carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and do not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of the Company’s financial management.

In connection with the issuance of notes during the three months ended March 31, 2019, on the initial measurement date of the notes, the fair values of the embedded conversion option of $568,000 was recorded as derivative liabilities of which $361,090 was charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense and $206,910 was recorded as a debt discount which was amortized into interest expense over the term of the note. The Company recognized gain on extinguishment of debt due to repayment and conversions of notes into shares of common and preferred stock of $3,007,629 and change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $896,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company determined that the conversion options embedded in the Notes require liability presentation at fair value. Each of these instruments provide the holder with the right to convert into common stock at a fixed discount market, with certain notes subject to a cap on the conversion price. These clauses cause uncertainty as to the number of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt and accordingly require liability presentation on the balance sheet in accordance with US GAAP. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company measured the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a binomial model and Monte Carlo simulations, and the following assumptions:

Common stock issued for Development Agreement
 
In consideration for the Development Agreement (see Note 9), C2M was issued 8,385,691 shares of our common stock on January 8, 2019. Additionally, the Company granted immediately vested 10 year options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock, with exercise price of $0.32 per share to certain C2M founders. As a result, C2M became the Company’s largest shareholder holding (inclusive of the vested options held by its founders) approximately 51% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the date of the Development Agreement. Consequently, such transaction resulted in a change of control whereby, C2M obtained majority control through its common stock ownership (See Note 9). Therefore, the Company accounted for the 8,385,691 shares of common stock under ASC 845-10-S99 “Transfer of Nonmonetary Assets by Promoters or Shareholders” whereby the transfer of nonmonetary assets to a company by its promoters or shareholders in exchange for stock prior to or at the time of the company's initial public offering normally should be recorded at the transferors' historical cost basis determined under GAAP. The Company determined that the value of the Development Agreement is $0 and recording it in a step up basis would not be appropriate since C2M is considered a promoter, majority shareholder and also a related party having an ownership interest of 51% in the Company on the execution date of the Development Agreement . Accordingly, the Company recorded the issuance of 8,385,691 shares of common stock at par value. The 750,000 options were valued on the grant date at approximately $0.13 per option for a total of $96,000 using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: stock price of $0.13 per share (based on the quoted trading price on the dates of grants), volatility of 296%, expected term of 10 year, and a risk free interest rate of 2.74%. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded stock based compensation of $96,000.
 
Common stock issued for membership interest in subsidiary
 
On March 11, 2019, with the assistance of C2M and assignment of rights, u nder the term of the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired additional 20.1% from existing members in consideration for payment of 937,500 shares of common stock (see Note 3).  The 937,500 shares of common stock were valued at the fair value of $1.056 per common share or $990,000 based on the quoted trading price on the date of grant.
 
Common stock issued for settlement of debt
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock to note holders upon the conversion of $4,000 of accrued interest. The fair value of shares on conversion was $196,000 having a derivative value on date of conversion of $18,000 and the balance of $178,000 was recorded as loss on settlement of debt. Additionally, in March 2019, the Company issued an aggregate of 203,080 shares of common stock to a noteholder upon the conversion of $27,000 of principal amount, accrued interest of $3,267 and $10,349 of accrued expenses.

Legal Matters
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements with third parties that include indemnification provisions which, in its judgment, are normal and customary for companies in the Company’s industry sector. These agreements are typically with business partners, clinical sites, and suppliers. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company generally agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties with respect to the Company’s product candidates, use of such product candidates, or other actions taken or omitted by us. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. As a result, the estimated fair value of liabilities relating to these provisions is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these provisions as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
  
In July 2018 we received notice of the expiration and termination of a license agreement dated January 19, 2016 acquired through the Share Exchange by our subsidiary Exactus BioSolutions, Inc that the Company recognized as an intangible asset from Digital Diagnostics, Inc. (“Digital Diagnostics”) related to our FibriLyzer and MatriLyzer technologies.  In addition, on December 14, 2018 we received a letter from KD Innovation, Ltd. (“KDI”) and Dr. Krassen Dimitrov, our former director seeking payment for alleged past due consulting fees from June 2017 through November 2018 pursuant to a Consulting Agreement dated January 20, 2016.  On January 23, 2019, Digital Diagnostics, made a demand for compensation against the Company in connection with an alleged breach of a License Agreement. Under the terms of these agreements, the parties are required to arbitrate claims.  Although we dispute the material allegations made by Digital Diagnostics and KDI, if such actions were successful damages could be awarded against us.
 
On December 14, 2018, the Company received a termination and demand notice from KD Innovation, Ltd, an entity 100% owned by a former Board member, in connection with a consulting agreement KDI entered into with the Company’s subsidiary, Exactus Biosolutions, Inc., on or about January 20, 2016. No lawsuit has been filed; however, in the event a lawsuit is filed, the Company intends to vigorously contest the matter.

The founders of C2M established their first CBD business in 2014. C2M will also be responsible for overseeing all farming and manufacturing activities of the Company.
 
Whereas, in consideration for the Development Agreement, C2M was issued 8,385,691 shares of our common stock on January 8, 2019. Additionally, the Company granted immediately vested 10 year options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock to founders of C2M, with exercise price of $0.32 per share (see Note 8). As a result, C2M was our largest shareholder holding (inclusive of the vested options held by its founders) approximately 51% of our outstanding common stock on the date of the Development Agreement. These options were granted to two owners and a co-founder of C2M.
 
C2M will provide personnel necessary for our growth. Utilizing C2M employees and facilities, the Company has been able to rapidly access resources and opportunities in the hemp-derived CBD industry. Emiliano Aloi of C2M became a member of our Advisory Board in January 2019 and was appointed President of the Company on March 11, 2019.
 
NOTE 10 - RELATED PARTY CONSIDERATIONS
 
Some of the officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities that become available. They may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and other business interests. We have not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.
 
On November 20, 2017, Dr. Dimitrov provided a notice dated November 21, 2017 to the Company stating that he was resigning from the Board, effective immediately. Dr. Dimitrov indicated that his resignation from the Board was based on the deteriorating relationship between the Company and Digital Diagnostics over the non-payment of fees owed by the Company pursuant to the licensing agreement between the Company and Digital Diagnostics. Dr. Dimitrov currently serves as the President of Digital Diagnostics, and the Company has licensed the right to develop, produce and commercialize certain diagnostic products, including the FibriLyzer and MatriLyzer, utilizing certain intellectual property rights owned or licensed by Digital Diagnostics. Dr. Dimitrov believes that, in light of these concerns, his role as both a Director of the Company and the President of Digital Diagnostics creates a conflict of interest and has decided to focus his time and energy on doing what is best for the shareholders of Digital Diagnostics. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company accrued $30,000 in licensing fees expenses to Digital Diagnostics. As of December 31, 2017, $126,032 was included in accounts payable.   The Company has also accrued interest at 3% over the prime rate, per the Licensing Agreement, of $9,802 for the remaining balance due as of December 31, 2017. The Company paid $126,032 and $75,000 during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. In March 2019, the Company received a demand notice from him however the Company believes the chances of liability to him is remote. There was no change during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
 
 
For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, $300,000 was recognized in Research and Development expenses for consulting provided by Dr. Dimitrov. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, $575,000 and $275,000 was included in accounts payable, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, $0 and $125,000, respectively was paid. There was no change during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
 
On June 28, 2017, the Company issued to two of the Company’s executive officers a promissory note in the principal amount up to $100,000, which amount may be drawn upon by the Company as bridge financing for general working capital purposes. The promissory note accrues interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum and matures on the earlier of (i) one (1) year from the date of the promissory note, and (ii) the closing the sale of the Company’s securities in a single transaction or a series of related transactions from which at least $500,000 of gross proceeds are raised (See Note 7).

General
 
On February 29, 2016, the Company consummated a share exchange, which resulted in a change in control of the Company. As part of this transaction, the Company acquired Exactus BioSolutions and its Licensing Agreement with Digital Diagnostics to develop, produce and commercialize blood diagnostic products that utilize certain intellectual property rights owned or licensed by Digital Diagnostics. The Licensing Agreement provides for Exactus BioSolutions and Digital Diagnostics to collaborate through the various steps of the product and device development process, including the development, regulatory approval and commercialization stages.
 
 
Following the Share Exchange, the Company became a life science company that planned to develop and commercialize Point-of-Care (“POC”) diagnostics for measuring proteolytic enzymes in the blood based on a proprietary detection platform (the “New Business”) through its subsidiary Exactus Biosolutions. The primary product, the FibriLyzer, would employ a disposable test “biosensor” strip combined with a portable and easy to use hand held detection unit that provides a result in less than 30 seconds.  The initial markets for the FibriLyzer are (i) the management of hyperfibrinolytic states associated with surgery and trauma, (ii) obstetrics, (iii) acute events such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke, (iv) pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis and (v) chronic coronary disease management. Exactus Biosolutions planned to follow up the FibriLyzer with similar technology, the MatriLyzer, to detect collagenase levels in the blood for the detection of the recurrence of cancer and intended to file to gain regulatory approval to sell its products in the United States, Canada and Europe prior to disputes with the licensor arising over compliance with the license and consulting agreements, and difficulty to raise capital on acceptable terms arose in order to pursue the venture. 
 
In December 2018, the Company expanded its focus to pursue opportunities in Cannabidiol (“CBD”). This decision was based in part on the passing of The Hemp Farming Act of 2018. The Act was signed into law during December 2018 and removes hemp (cannabis with less than 0.3% THC) from the Schedule I controlled substances list. Following passage, CBD derived from industrial hemp became legal in the US under federal law and in all 50 states, opening the door to develop and sell hemp-based CBD products nationwide. The Company’s goal is to rapidly establish one or more principal sources of supply and to develop wholesale and retail sales channels for CBD end-products to be sold to humans and for animal health, such as nutraceuticals, supplements and pet and farm products. The Company intends to follow regulatorily compliant pathways by adopting practices established by the FDA for CBD. 
 
On January 8, 2019 we entered into a Master Product Development and Supply Agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ceed2Med, LLC (“C2M”). C2M has provided the Company access to expertise, resources, skills and experience suitable for producing products with active phyto-cannabinoid (CBD) rich ingredients including isolates, distillates, water soluble, and proprietary formulations. Under the Development Agreement, we have been allotted a minimum of 50 and up to 300 kilograms per month, and up to 2,500 kilograms annually, of active phyto-cannabinoid (CBD) rich ingredients for resale. We expect to be able to offer tinctures, edibles, capsules, topical solutions and animal health products manufactured for us by C2M to satisfy demand for branded and white-label products that we intend to offer to sell in the future. The founders of C2M established their first CBD business in 2014. C2M will also be responsible for overseeing all farming and manufacturing activities of the Company.
 
Whereas, in consideration for the Development Agreement, C2M was issued 8,385,691 shares of our common stock on January 8, 2019. Additionally, the Company granted immediately vested 10 year options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock to founders of C2M, with exercise price of $0.32 per share. As a result, C2M was our largest shareholder holding (inclusive of the vested options held by its founders) approximately 51% of our outstanding common stock on the date of the Development Agreement. These options were granted to two owners and a co-founder of C2M. C2M will provide personnel necessary for our growth. Utilizing C2M employees and facilities, the Company has been able to rapidly access resources and opportunities in the hemp-derived CBD industry. Emiliano Aloi of C2M became a member of our Advisory Board in January 2019 and was appointed President of the Company on March 11, 2019.
 
On March 11, 2019, with the assistance of C2M and assignment of rights, we acquired a 50.1% limited liability membership interest in Exactus One World, LLC, (“EOW”) an Oregon limited liability company, newly formed on January 25, 2019, in order to produce industrial hemp for our own use. EOW has leases starting on March 1, 2019 for approximately 200 acres of farm land in southwest Oregon for growing and processing industrial hemp, with a lease term of one year. The leases are renewable on a year-to-year basis. We acquired the 50.1% limited liability membership interest pursuant to a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) and a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). EOW will farm and process industrial hemp to be manufactured into cannabidiol (CBD) and related products.  EOW will be responsible for the Company’s initial efforts to pursue agricultural development, including farm soil preparation, planting, harvesting, transportation and drying.  We will be responsible for funding and the minority owners will be responsible for management, servicing and operating the farm properties.

 
Results of Operations
 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018:
 
Net Revenues The Company is principally engaged in the business production and selling of products made from industrial hemp. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we generated minimal revenues of $15,980 and $0, respectively, from the sale of CBD products.
 
Cost of Sales The primary components of cost of sales include the cost of the CBD product and shipping fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s cost of sales amounted to $12,600 and $0, respectively which represents purchase of CBD products from C2M. C2M is a majority stockholder of the Company.
 
Operating Expenses
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred $2,599,234 in operating expenses as compared to $1,382,695 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $1,216,539 or 88%. The increase in operating expenses consisted of the following:
 
General and administrative expenses decreased by $492,051, or 41%, from $1,196,138 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $704,087 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to decrease in contractual bonuses and stock options given to management to retain executive staff.
 
Professional and consulting fees increased by $1,768,590, or 1,585%, from $111,557 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $1,880,147 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, due to increased stock based consulting fees related with the grant of stock options and warrants to consultants.
 
Research and development decreased by $60,000, or 80%, from $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as the Company delays projects until additional funds are raised.
 
Other Expenses, net
 
Derivative gain (loss) increased by $1,874,879, or 446%, from $420,150 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $(1,454,729) for the three months ended March 31, 2019, due to the issuance of new convertible notes in 2019 and adjustments to fair value.
 
Gain on stock settlement of debt increased by $3,007,629, or 100%, from $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $3,007,619 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to the conversion of notes and interest into common and preferred shares during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
 
Interest expense increased by $255,612, or 230%, from $111,301 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $366,913 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, due to the issuance of new convertible notes in 2019, incurred penalty fees on convertible notes and the amortization of discounts related to convertible notes.
  
Net Loss
 
As a result of the foregoing, we generated a net loss from operations of $1,409,867 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to a net operating loss of $1,073,846 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a result of the discussion above.
 
As a result of the foregoing, we generated a net loss available to stockholders of $2,278,713 or $(0.12) per common share – basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to a net loss of $1,073,846 or $(0.24) per common share – basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as a result of the discussion above.
 
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Since our inception in 2008, we have generated losses from operations. As of March 31, 2019, our accumulated deficit was $12,816,605.  As of March 31, 2019, we had $1,172,915 of cash. These funds will not be sufficient to enable us to complete the development of any potential products, including the FibriLyzer and related technology and also the development of our business production and selling of products made from industrial hemp. Accordingly, we will need to obtain further funding through public or private equity offerings, debt financing, collaboration arrangements or other sources. The issuance of any additional shares of common stock, preferred stock or convertible securities could be substantially dilutive to our shareholders. In addition, adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital, we will be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our research and development programs and may not be able to continue as a going concern.
 
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $1,833,755, due to our net loss of $1,409,867, offset by non-cash charges related to convertible loan notes derivative gain (loss) of $1,454,729, amortization of debt discounts of $339,806, amortization of intangible assets of $52,688, and stock-based compensation of $2,005,861 offset by $3,007,629 for a debt settlement gain. Net changes in assets and liabilities totaled of $1,269,344, which is primarily attributable to increases in inventory of $422,819, advance to supplier- related party of $1,017,225 and accounts payable of $233,560. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $295,280. We recorded a net loss for the three month period of $1,073,846. Increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses increased cash by $882,456. Other items in uses of funds from operations included non-cash charges of derivative gain, amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, loss on debt settlement in stock, and interest expense which collectively totaled $67,548.
 
Net cash used in investing activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $328,500. We paid cash for the purchase of membership interest in subsidiary for $300,000 pursuant to a Purchase Agreement and purchase of equipment for $28,500.
  
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $3,333,210, due to proceeds from sale of our common stock of $3,309,653, net proceeds the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes $221,129 offset by note repayments of $197,572.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $173,000 due to proceeds from our issuance of shares of Series D Preferred Stock of $50,000, the issuance of promissory notes, and convertible loan notes $148,000 offset by convertible loan payments of $25,000.
  
Going Concern
  
The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have concluded that the circumstances described above continue to raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of March 31, 2019.
 


 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2019, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
In the normal course of business, we may be confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims or the actions of various regulatory agencies. We consult with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess the claim. If, in our opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in our financial statements. After consultation with legal counsel, we do not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently pending or threatened lawsuits and claims will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
  
Critical Accounting Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements
 
Critical Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
 
Application of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may, therefore, not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
  
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Currently, share-based payment arrangements to nonemployees are accounted for under ASC 718 while nonemployee share-based payments issued for goods and services are accounted for under ASC 505-50. Before the amendment, the major difference for the Company (but not limited to) was the determination of measurement date which generally is the date on which the measurement of equity classified share-based payments becomes fixed. Equity classified share-based payments for employees was fixed at the time of grant and equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are no longer measured at the earlier of the date which a commitment for performance by the counterparty is reached or the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. They are now measured at the grant date of the award which is the same as share-based payments for employees. The Company adopted the requirements of the new rule in the first quarter of 2019.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (ASU 2017-04). The standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments of ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity will recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, but the loss cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the calendar year ending December 31, 2020. The amendments require a prospective approach to adoption and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
 
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. The standard requires a financial asset (including trade receivables) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Thus, the income statement will reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly-recognized financial assets as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This standard will be effective for the calendar year ending December 31, 2020. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, which amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Part I of ASU No. 2017-11, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
We have reviewed the FASB issued ASU accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation’s reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration.
 
ITEM 3. QU A NTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PR O CEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are 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 information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the Company’s principal executive and financial officers, have conducted an evaluation of the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
Our CEO and CFO believe that as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The conclusion was due to the presence of the following material weaknesses in disclosure controls and procedures due to our small size and limited resources: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both U.S. GAAP and SEC Guidelines; (iii) inadequate security and restricted access to computer systems including insufficient disaster recovery plans; and (iv) no written whistleblower policy.
 
Our CEO and CFO plan to review and implement appropriate disclosure controls and procedures to remediate these material weaknesses, including (i) appointing additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; (ii) adopting sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting and a whistle blower policy; and (iii) implementing sufficient security and restricted access measures regarding our computer systems and implement a disaster recovery plan.
 
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
