PART I
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
 
History
 
We were incorporated in the State of Colorado on August 31, 2006 under the name “Mountain West Business Solutions, Inc.” Until October 2009, our business was to provide management consulting with regard to accounting, computer and general business issues for small and home-office based companies.
 
In October 2009, we acquired Sunshine Biopharma, Inc., a Colorado corporation holding an exclusive license to a new anticancer drug bearing the laboratory name, Adva-27a. As a result of this transaction we changed our name to “Sunshine Biopharma, Inc." and our officers and directors resigned their positions with us and were replaced by Sunshine’s management at the time, including our current CEO, Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, and our current CFO, Camille Sebaaly each of whom remain part of our current management. Our principal business became that of a pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of our licensed Adva-27a anticancer compound. In December 2015 we acquired all issued and pending patents pertaining to our Adva-27a technology and terminated the license.
 
In July 2014, we formed a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. (“Sunshine Canada”), for the purposes of offering generic pharmaceutical products in Canada and elsewhere around the world. In April and June 2016 Sunshine Canada signed licensing agreements for four (4) generic prescription drugs for the treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer and BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia).
 
In January 2018, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Atlas Pharma Inc. (“Atlas”), a Health Canada certified company dedicated to chemical analysis of pharmaceutical and other industrial samples. See “ITEM 1. Business – Discontinued Analytical Chemistry Services Operations” for a more detailed explanation of this acquisition and its disposition in April 2019.
 
In March 2018, we formed NOX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a wholly owned Colorado corporation and assigned all of our interest in our Adva-27a anticancer compound to that company. NOX Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s mission is to research, develop and commercialize proprietary drugs, including Adva-27a.
 
In December 2018, we completed the development of a new dietary supplement which we trademarked Essential 9TM. This dietary supplement is an over-the-counter tablet comprised of the nine amino acids which the human body cannot make. Essential 9TM has been authorized for marketing by Health Canada under NPN 80089663. On March 12, 2019 Essential 9TM became available for sale on Amazon.ca and on March 23, 2019 we recorded our first revenues of Essential 9TM sales.
 
Effective February 1, 2019, we completed a 20 to 1 reverse split of our $0.001 par value Common Stock reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,713,046,242 to 85,652,400 (the “First Reverse Stock Split”). The number of authorized shares of our $0.001 par value Common Stock remained at 3,000,000,000 shares.
 
 
3
 
 
Effective April 1, 2019, we re-assigned all of our stock in Atlas back to the original owner in exchange for the Atlas related debt. See “Discontinued Analytical Chemistry Services Operations” below in this section for a more detailed explanation of this disposition.
 
In November 2019, we received Health Canada approval for a new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement. Health Canada issued NPN 80093432 through which it authorized us to manufacture and sell the new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement under the brand name Essential Calcium-Vitamin Dtm.
 
Effective April 6, 2020, we completed another 20 to 1 reverse split of our $0.001 par value Common Stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,193,501,925 to 59,675,417 (the “Second Reverse Stock Split”). The authorized capital of our Common Stock remained as previously established at 3,000,000,000 shares. Except in the paragraphs describing the reverse stock splits, all references in this Report to our Common Stock as well as the price per share of Common Stock are presented on a post First and Second Reverse Stock Splits basis.
 
Our principal place of business is located at 6500 Trans-Canada Highway, 4th Floor, Pointe-Claire, Quebec, Canada H9R 0A5. Our phone number is (514) 426-6161 and our website address is www.sunshinebiopharma.com.
 
Business Operations
 
As of the date of this Report our operations include the following:
  
Proprietary Drug Development Operations
 
Since inception, our proprietary drug development activities have been focused on the development of a small molecule called Adva-27a for the treatment of aggressive forms of cancer. A Topoisomerase II inhibitor, Adva-27a has been shown to be effective at destroying Multidrug Resistant Cancer cells including Pancreatic Cancer cells, Breast Cancer cells, Small-Cell Lung Cancer cells and Uterine Sarcoma cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Sunshine Biopharma is direct owner of all issued and pending worldwide patents pertaining to Adva-27a including U.S. Patents Number 8,236,935 and 10,272,065. See “Intellectual Property/Trademarks - Tradenames” below for more details.
 
Figure 1

Adva-27a is a GEM-difluorinated C-glycoside derivative of Podophyllotoxin (see Figure 1). Another derivative of Podophyllotoxin called Etoposide is currently on the market and is used to treat various types of cancer including leukemia, lymphoma, testicular cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, liver cancer and several other forms of cancer. Etoposide is one of the most widely used anticancer drugs. Adva-27a and Etoposide are similar in that they both attack the same target in cancer cells, namely the DNA unwinding enzyme, Topoisomerase II. Unlike Etoposide however, Adva-27a is able to penetrate and destroy Multidrug Resistant Cancer cells. Adva-27a is the only compound known today that is capable of destroying Multidrug Resistant Cancer. In addition, Adva-27a has been shown to have distinct and more desirable biological and pharmacological properties compared to Etoposide. In side-by-side studies using Multidrug Resistant Breast Cancer cells and Etoposide as a reference, Adva-27a showed markedly greater cell killing activity (see Figure 2).
 
 
Figure 2
 
 Our preclinical studies to date have shown that:
 
Adva-27a is effective at killing different types of Multidrug Resistant cancer cells, including Pancreatic Cancer Cells (Panc-1), Breast Cancer Cells (MCF-7/MDR), Small-Cell Lung Cancer Cells (H69AR), and Uterine Sarcoma Cells (MES-SA/Dx5).
 
Adva-27a is unaffected by P-Glycoprotein, the enzyme responsible for making cancer cells resistant to anti-tumor drugs.
 
Adva-27a has excellent clearance time (half-life = 54 minutes) as indicated by human microsomes stability studies and pharmacokinetics data in rats.
 
Adva-27a clearance is independent of Cytochrome P450, a mechanism that is less likely to produce toxic intermediates.
 
Adva-27a is an excellent inhibitor of Topoisomerase II with an IC50 of only 13.7 micromolar (this number has recently been reduce to 1.44 micromolar as a result of resolving the two isomeric forms of Adva-27a).
 
Adva-27a has shown excellent pharmacokinetics profile as indicated by studies done in rats.
 
Adva-27a does not inhibit tubulin assembly.

These and other preclinical data have been published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, a peer-reviewed International Journal of Cancer Research and Treatment. The publication which is entitled “Adva-27a, a Novel Podophyllotoxin Derivative Found to Be Effective Against Multidrug Resistant Human Cancer Cells” [ANTICANCER RESEARCH 32: 4423-4432 (2012)] is available on our website at www.sunshinebiopharma.com.
 
We have been delayed in our clinical development program due to lack of funding. Our fund raising efforts are continuing and as soon as adequate financing is in place we will continue our clinical development program of Adva-27a by conducting the following next sequence of steps:
 
GMP Manufacturing of 2 kilogram for use in IND-Enabling Studies and Phase I Clinical Trials
IND-Enabling Studies
Regulatory Filing (Fast-Track Status Anticipated)
Phase I Clinical Trials (Pancreatic Cancer Indication)
 
Adva-27a’s initial indication will be Pancreatic Cancer for which there are currently little or no treatment options available. We are planning to conduct our clinical trials at McGill University’s Jewish General Hospital in Montreal, Canada. All aspects of the clinical trials in Canada will employ FDA standards at all levels.
 
According to the American Cancer Society, nearly 1.5 million new cases of cancer are diagnosed in the U.S. each year.  While particularly effective against Multidrug Resistant Cancer, we believe Adva-27a can potentially treat all cancer types as it is general chemotherapy drug. We believe that upon successful completion of Phase I Clinical Trials we may receive one or more offers from large pharmaceutical companies to buyout or license our drug.  However, there are no assurances that our Phase I Trials will be successful, or if successful, that any pharmaceutical companies will make an acceptable offer to us.  In the event we do not consummate such a transaction, we will require significant capital in order to manufacture and market our new drug on our own. The following, Figure 3, is a space-filling molecular model of our Adva-27a.

Generic Pharmaceuticals Operations
 
In 2016, our Canadian wholly owned subsidiary, Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. (“Sunshine Canada”), signed Licensing Agreements with a major pharmaceutical company for four prescription generic drugs for the treatment of Breast Cancer, Prostate Cancer and Enlarged Prostate. We have since been working towards commencement of marketing of these pharmaceutical products under our own, Sunshine Biopharma, label. These four generic products are as follows:
 
 
6
 
 
Anastrozole (brand name Arimidex® by AstraZeneca) for treatment of Breast Cancer;
Letrozole (brand name Femara® by Novartis) for treatment of Breast Cancer;
Bicalutamide (brand name Casodex® by AstraZeneca) for treatment of Prostate Cancer;
Finasteride (brand name Propecia® by Merck) for treatment of BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia)
 
Sunshine Canada is currently in the process of securing a Drug Identification Number (“DIN”) for each of these products from Health Canada. We are also required to obtain a Drug Establishment License (“DEL”) from Health Canada. Upon receipt of the DEL and DIN’s, we will be able to accept orders for our own label SBI-Anastrozole, SBI-Letrozole, SBI-Bicalutamide and SBI-Finasteride. We cannot estimate the timing for our obtaining either the DIN’s or the DEL due to variables involved that are out of our control. Figure 4 shows our 30-Pill blister pack of Anastrozole.
 
 
Figure 4
 
We currently have a number of additional generic pharmaceuticals under review for in-licensing. While no assurances can be provided that we will acquire the rights to any additional generic drugs, we believe that a larger product portfolio will provide us with more opportunities and a greater reach into the marketplace.
  
Various publicly available sources indicate that the worldwide sales of generic pharmaceuticals are approximately $200 billion per year. In the United States and Canada, the sales of generic pharmaceuticals are approximately $50 billion and $5 billion, respectively. The generic pharmaceuticals business is fairly competitive and there are several multinational players in the field including Teva (Israel), Novartis - Sandoz (Switzerland), Hospira (USA), Mylan (Netherlands), Sanofi (France), Fresenius Kabi (Germany) and Apotex (Canada). While no assurances can be provided, with our offering of Canadian approved products we believe that we will be able to access at least a small percentage of the generic pharmaceutical marketplace.
 
Dietary Supplements Operations
 
In 2018, we completed the development of Essential 9, the first in a line of essential micronutrients products that we are planning to launch. On December 14, 2018, Health Canada issued NPN 80089663 through which it authorized Sunshine Biopharma Inc. to manufacture and sell the Essential 9 product. Our Essential 9tm dietary supplement tablets contain a balanced formula of the 9 essential amino acids that the human body cannot make. Essential Amino Acids are 9 out of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis. Proteins are involved in all body functions – From the musculature and immune system to hormones and neurotransmitters. Like vitamins, Essential Amino Acids cannot be made by the human body and must be obtained through diet. Deficiency in one or more of the 9 Essential Amino Acids can lead to loss of muscle mass, fatigue, weight gain and reduced ability to build muscle mass in athletes. Sunshine Biopharma’s Essential 9tm provides all 9 Essential Amino Acids in freeform and in the proportions recommended by Health Canada. Essential 9 is currently available on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. Figure 5 shows our 60-Tablet Essential 9 product.

Figure 5
 
In November 2019, we received Health Canada approval for another dietary supplement, a new Calcium-Vitamin D tablets. Health Canada issued NPN 80093432 through which it authorized us to manufacture and sell the new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement under the brand name Essential Calcium-Vitamin D.
 
Vitamin D is a group of steroid-like molecules responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, magnesium, and phosphate. They are also involved in multiple other biological functions, including promoting the healthy growth and remodeling of bone, cell growth, neuromuscular and immune functions, and reduction of inflammation. The most important compounds in this group are Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Sunshine Biopharma’s Essential Calcium-Vitamin D tablets contain both of these compounds as well as Calcium for optimum health benefits. We anticipate that Essential Calcium-Vitamin D will be available on Amazon.ca in the third quarter of 2020.
 
Discontinued Analytical Chemistry Services Operations
 
On January 1, 2018, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Atlas Pharma Inc. (“Atlas”), a privately held Canadian company providing analytical chemistry testing services (“Atlas Business”). The purchase price for the shares was $848,000 Canadian ($676,748 US). The purchase price included a cash payment of $100,500 Canadian ($80,289 US), plus the issuance of 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $238,000, and a promissory note in the principal amount of $450,000 Canadian ($358,407 US), with interest payable at the rate of 3% per annum (“Atlas Note”).
 
Effective April 1, 2019, we disposed of Atlas by re-assigning all of our stock in Atlas back to the original owner in exchange for the Atlas Note. As a consequence of the sale, the operating results and the assets and liabilities of the discontinued Atlas Business are presented separately in the Company's financial statements as Discontinued Operations. In additions, prior period balances have been reclassified to present the operations of the Atlas Business as Discontinued Operations.
 
Intellectual Property/Trademarks-Tradenames
 
We are the exclusive owner of all worldwide rights pertaining to Adva-27a covered by PCT/FR2007/000697 and PCT/CA2014/000029.  The patent applications filed under PCT/FR2007/000697 have been issued in Europe, Canada, the United States (US Patent Number 8,236,935) and India.  The patent application filed in the U.S. under PCT/CA2014/000029 has recently been issued (US Patent Number 10,272,065). The remaining international patent applications filed under the same PCT are still pending.

In 2016 we signed Licensing Agreements with a major pharmaceutical company for four (4) prescription generic drugs for the treatment of Breast Cancer, Prostate Cancer and Enlarged Prostate. These agreements give us the right to register the four (4) generic products, Anastrozole, Letrozole, Bicalutamide and Finasteride in Canada under our own label and obtain a DIN for each in order to be able to place them on the market.
 
In 2018 we completed the development of Essential 9, our first dietary supplement. On December 14, 2018, Health Canada issued NPN 80089663 through which it authorized Sunshine Biopharma Inc. to manufacture and sell the Essential 9 product. We are currently preparing the necessary documents for registration of our Essential 9tm trademark in the United States.
 
In November 2019, we received Health Canada approval for another dietary supplement, a new Calcium-Vitamin D tablets. Health Canada issued NPN 80093432 through which it authorized us to manufacture and sell the new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement under the brand name Essential Calcium-Vitamin D.
  
Government Regulations
 
All of our business operations, including the Proprietary Drug Development Operations, the Generic Pharmaceutical Operations, and Dietary Supplements Operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations.
 
In the U.S, the Federal Government agency responsible for regulating drugs and dietary supplements is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The Canadian counterpart to the FDA is Health Canada. Both the FDA and Health Canada have similar requirements for drugs and supplements to be approved for marketing. In Canada, drugs and dietary supplements are authorized through the issuance by Health Canada of a Drug Identification Number (DIN) and a Natural Product Number (NPN) on a per product basis, respectively. In both the U.S. and Canada, the quality standards for brand name drugs and generic drugs are the same. In addition, the ingredients, manufacturing processes and facilities for all drugs and supplements must meet the guidelines for Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”). Moreover, all drug manufacturers must perform a series of tests, both during and after production, to show that every drug batch made meets the regulatory requirements for that product.
  
In connection with our development of the new chemical entity, Adva-27a, we will be subject to significant regulations in the U.S. in order to obtain approval of the FDA to offer our product on the market.  The approximate procedure for obtaining FDA approval involves an initial filing of an IND application following which the FDA would review and give the go ahead for the drug developer to proceed with Phase I clinical (human) trials.  Following completion of Phase I, the results are filed with the FDA and a request is made to proceed to Phase II.  Similarly, following completion of Phase II the data are filed with the FDA and a request is made to proceed to Phase III.  Following completion of Phase III, a request is made for marketing approval.  Depending on various issues and considerations, the FDA could provide limited marketing approval for “compassionate-use” if the drug treats terminally ill patients with limited other treatment options available.  As of the date of this Report we have not made any filings with the FDA or other regulatory bodies in other jurisdictions.  We have however had discussions with clinicians at the McGill University’s Jewish General Hospital in Montreal where we plan to undertake our Phase I study for pancreatic cancer and they believe that Health Canada is likely to grant us a so-called “fast-track” process on the basis of the terminal nature of the cancer type we will be treating.  There are no assurances this will occur.
 
 
9
 
 
Employees
 
As of the date of this Report we have a total of three (3) employees, comprised of our management team. We anticipate that if we receive financing we will need additional employees in all three areas of our operations including accounting, regulatory affairs, marketing, sales and laboratory personnel.
 
Competition
 
In the area of proprietary anticancer drug development, we are competing with large publicly and privately held companies engaged in developing new cancer therapies. There are numerous other entities engaged in this business that have greater resources, both financial and otherwise, than the resources presently available to us.  Nearly all major pharmaceutical companies including Merck, Amgen, Roche, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Novartis, to name a few, have on-going anticancer drug development programs and some of the drugs they may develop could be in direct competition with our own.  Also, a number of small companies are also working in the area of cancer therapy and could develop drugs that may be in competition with ours.  However, none of these competitor companies can use molecules similar to ours as they would be infringing our patents.
 
The generic pharmaceuticals business is fairly competitive and there are many players in the field including several multinationals such as Teva (Israel), Novartis - Sandoz (Switzerland), Hospira (USA), Mylan (Netherlands), Sanofi (France), Fresenius Kabi (Germany) and Apotex (Canada) with annual sales in the range of approximately $2 billion to over $10 billion. With our offering of Canadian approved generic products, we believe that we will be able to access a small percentage of the generic pharmaceuticals market.
 
Similarly, our Essential 9 and Essential Calcium-Vitamin Dtm together with our other planned line of dietary supplement products fall directly within a very crowded and highly competitive product sector. As of the date of this Report, Essential 9 is the only Essential Amino Acid product that comprises all 9 essential amino acids in tablet form. We believe this will provide us with a competitive advantage, at least for the near future.
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
We are a smaller reporting company and not required to include this disclosure in this Report.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
 
None.
 
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
 
Our principal place of business is located at 6500 Trans-Canada Highway, 4th Floor, Pointe-Claire, Quebec, Canada H9R 0A5. We pay a monthly fee of $227 (Canadian), including applicable taxes for use of the available space and services. We are not party to a lease agreement in connection with this service. Additional office space and conference rooms are available to us on a pay-per-use basis. Our arrangement in connection with this office has no short-term or long-term asset or liability value.
 
We believe that our existing facilities and equipment are adequate. We continuously review our anticipated requirements for facilities and equipment, and on the basis of such reviews, may from time to time acquire additional facilities or equipment, or dispose of some of the existing space or equipment.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
  
In June 2018 we filed an action in the Superior Court of the Province of Quebec in the District of Montreal (Canada) against one of our existing shareholders residing in Quebec City (Canada) arising out of a possible equity investment intended to be completed by August 2018. The complaint alleges among other things, claims of misrepresentations and misleading conduct resulting in damages to us in an amount of approximately $200,000 Canadian (approximately $154,000 US). On April 1, 2019, a note payable held by the defendant having a face value of $100,000 Canadian (approximately $76,000 US) became due and payable. We have elected not to pay the amount due and to petition the courts to link this matter to the ongoing litigation. On March 6, 2020, the Superior Court in the District of Montreal granted our motion and the two proceedings were linked. A date for the hearings to commence was subsequently set for April 7, 2020, however due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic, the date has been postponed until further notice.
 
To the best of our management’s knowledge and belief, there are no other material claims that have been brought against us nor any claims threatened.

As of April 29, 2020, the closing bid price of our Common Stock was $0.0017 per share.
 
Trading volume in our Common Stock varies between a few hundred thousand shares to several million shares per day.  As a result, the trading price of our Common Stock is subject to significant fluctuations.
 
The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission” or “SEC”) has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.  Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
 
 
12
 
 
As of the date of this Report, our Common Stock is defined as a “penny stock” under the Securities and Exchange Act.  It is anticipated that our Common Stock will remain a penny stock for the foreseeable future.  The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his/her investment.  Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange Act.  Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.
 
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
 
contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
 
contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended;
 
contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
 
contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
 
defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and
 
contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation;
 
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, to the customer:
 
the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
 
the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
 
the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
 
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
 
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.  These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules.  Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities.
 
Holders
 
We had 147 holders of record of our Common Stock as of the date of this Report, not including those persons who hold their shares in “street name.”
 
Our CEO, Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, holds all 500,000 shares of our Series “B” Preferred Stock issued in 2015.

Dividends
 
We have not paid any dividends since our incorporation and do not anticipate the payment of dividends in the foreseeable future. At present, our policy is to retain earnings, if any, to develop and market our products.  The payment of dividends in the future will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, capital requirements, and operating financial conditions.

Overview and History
 
We were incorporated in the State of Colorado on August 31, 2006 under the name “Mountain West Business Solutions, Inc.” Until October 2009, our business was to provide management consulting with regard to accounting, computer and general business issues for small and home-office based companies.
 
In October 2009, we acquired Sunshine Biopharma, Inc., a Colorado corporation holding an exclusive license to a new anticancer drug bearing the laboratory name, Adva-27a. As a result of this transaction we changed our name to “Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. and our officers and directors resigned their positions with us and were replaced by Sunshine’s management at the time, including our current CEO, Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, and our current CFO, Camille Sebaaly each of whom remain part of our current management. Our principal business became that of a pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of our licensed Adva-27a anticancer compound. In December 2015 we acquired all issued and pending patents pertaining to our Adva-27a technology and terminated the license.
 
 
14
 
 
In July 2014, we formed a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. (“Sunshine Canada”), for the purposes of offering generic pharmaceutical products in Canada and elsewhere around the world. In April and June 2016 Sunshine Canada signed licensing agreements for four (4) generic prescription drugs for the treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer and BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia).
 
In January 2018, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Atlas Pharma Inc., a Health Canada certified company dedicated to chemical analysis of pharmaceutical and other industrial samples. See “ITEM 1. Business – Discontinued Analytical Chemistry Services Operations” for a more detailed explanation of this acquisition and its disposition in April 2019.
 
In March 2018, we formed NOX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a wholly owned Colorado corporation and assigned all of our interest in our Adva-27a anticancer compound to that company. NOX Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s mission is to research, develop and commercialize proprietary drugs, including Adva-27a.
 
In December 2018, we launched our first over-the-counter Essential Brand product, Essential 9, a dietary supplement comprised of the nine amino acids which the human body cannot synthesize. Essential 9 has been authorized for marketing by Health Canada under NPN 80089663.
 
Effective February 1, 2019, we completed a 20 to 1 reverse split of our $0.001 par value Common Stock reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,713,046,242 to 85,652,400 (the “First Reverse Stock Split”). Our authorized capital of Common Stock remained as previously established at 3,000,000,000 shares.
 
Effective April 1, 2019, we re-assigned all of our stock in Atlas back to the original owner in exchange for the Atlas related debt. See “ITEM 1. Business – Discontinued Analytical Chemistry Services Operations” for a more detailed explanation of this disposition.
 
In November 2019, we received Health Canada approval for a new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement. Health Canada issued NPN 80093432 through which it authorized us to manufacture and sell the new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement under the brand name Essential Calcium-Vitamin D.
 
Effective April 6, 2020, we completed another 20 to 1 reverse split of our $0.001 par value Common Stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,193,501,925 to 59,675,417 (the “Second Reverse Stock Split”). The authorized capital of our Common Stock remained as previously established at 3,000,000,000 shares. Except in the paragraphs describing the reverse stock splits, all references in this Report to our Common Stock as well as the price per share of Common Stock are presented on a post First and Second Reverse Stock Splits basis. 
 
Our principal place of business is located at 6500 Trans-Canada Highway, 4th Floor, Pointe-Claire, Quebec, Canada H9R 0A5. Our phone number is (514) 426-6161 and our website address is www.sunshinebiopharma.com.
 
We have never been subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
 
Going Concern
 
Our financial statements accompanying this Report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. We have a minimal operating history and minimal revenues or earnings from operations. We have no significant assets or financial resources. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues for the immediate future.  See “ITEM 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Results Of Operations
 
Comparison of Results of Operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
 
During our fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 we generated revenues of $21,121 from our Dietary Supplements Operations. The direct cost for generating these revenues was $11,050. We did not generate any revenues in 2018 or prior thereto.
 
General and administrative expenses for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 were $651,707, compared to $1,164,290 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, a decrease of $512,583. The expense categories that saw a decrease included accounting and legal fees, which decreased by $70,508, office expenses by $9,750 and executive compensation by $477,963. The general and administrative categories that saw an increase were consulting fees by $43,842 and research and development by $2,404. The increase in consulting fees was largely due to fees related to expansion of our Dietary Supplements Operations.
 
We also incurred $115,906 in interest expense and $314,752 in losses from debt conversion during the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $143,463 in interest expense and $871,726 in losses from debt conversion during the similar period in 2018. The decrease in interest expense and losses from debt conversion in 2019 was due to a decrease in issuance of convertible debt instruments.
  
As a result, we incurred a net loss of $1,660,291 (approximately $0.15 per share) for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to a net loss of $2,156,155 (approximately $0.71 per share) during the year ended December 31, 2018.
  
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $40,501.
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $498,255 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $501,806 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.  We anticipate that our cash requirements for our operations will increase in the future before we reach profitability levels. 
 
Cash flows used in investing activities were $15,276 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.  For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, cash flows used in investing activities were $18,590 arising primarily out of the purchase of computer and related equipment.  Net cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $442,255 in 2019, compared to $527,640 during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

We relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to issue the respective shares. We did not generate any proceeds from the issuance of these shares.
 
We are not generating significant revenue from our operations, and our ability to implement our business plan as set forth herein will depend on the future availability of financing.  Such financing will be required to enable us to further develop our proprietary drug development program, generic pharmaceuticals business, and dietary supplements development and sales operations.  We intend to raise funds through private placements of our Common Stock and/or debt financing. We estimate that we will require approximately $6 million ($1 million for the Generic Pharmaceuticals and Dietary Supplements operations and $5 million for the Proprietary Drug Development program) to fully implement our business plan in the future and there are no assurances that we will be able to raise this capital.
  
We are currently in discussion with various investment groups for financing. There are no assurances that we will be successful in raising any funds.
 
Our cost to continue operations are expected to increase as we move forward with implementation of our business plan.  We do not have sufficient funds to cover the anticipated increase in the relevant expenses.  We need to raise additional funds in order to continue our existing operations and planned expansions.

Inflation
 
Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Critical Accounting Estimates
 
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
  
Leases
 
We follow the guidance in ASC 842 “Accounting for Leases,” as amended, which requires us to evaluate the lease agreements we enter into to determine whether they represent operating or capital leases at the inception of the lease. Our Company is not party to any lease agreements. Our corporate offices in Pointe-Claire, Quebec (Canada) are on a month-to-month, pay-per-use basis. Our arrangement in connection with this office has no short-term or long-term asset or liability value.
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
 
In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842), to provide guidance on recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements, specifically differentiating between different types of leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from all leases. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous GAAP. There continues to be a differentiation between finance leases and operating leases. However, the principal difference from previous guidance is that the lease assets and lease liabilities arising from operating leases should be recognized in the balance sheet. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Our Company is not party to any lease agreements. Our corporate offices in Pointe-Claire, Quebec (Canada) are on a month-to-month, pay-per-use basis. Our arrangement in connection with this office has no short-term or long-term asset or liability value.
  
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Sunshine Biopharma, Inc.:
 
Opinion on the Financial Statements
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, 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 December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
 
Going Concern Uncertainty
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
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 audits. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 
Our audits 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 audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Sunshine Biopharma, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
 
Note 1 – Description of Business
 
Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated under the name Mountain West Business Solutions, Inc. on August 31, 2006 in the State of Colorado. Until October 2009, the Company was operating as a business consultancy firm. Effective October 15, 2009, the Company acquired Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. in a transaction classified as a reverse acquisition. Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. was holding an exclusive license to a new anticancer drug bearing the laboratory name, Adva-27a. Upon completion of the reverse acquisition transaction, the Company changed its name to Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. and began operating as a pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of the licensed Adva-27a anticancer drug.
 
In July 2014, the Company formed a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. (“Sunshine Canada”) for the purposes of offering generic pharmaceutical products in Canada and elsewhere around the world. Sunshine Canada has signed licensing agreements for four (4) generic prescription drugs for treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer and BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia).
 
On January 1, 2018, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Atlas Pharma Inc. (“Atlas”), a Canadian privately held analytical chemistry company. The purchase price for the shares was Eight Hundred Forty-Eight Thousand Dollars $848,000 Canadian ($676,748 US). The purchase price included a cash payment of $100,500 Canadian ($80,289 US), plus the issuance of 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $238,000, and a promissory note (“Atlas Debt”) in the principal amount of $450,000 Canadian ($358,407 US), with interest payable at the rate of 3% per annum.
 
In March 2018, the Company formed NOX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a wholly owned Colorado corporation and assigned all of the Company’s interest in the Adva27a anticancer drug to that company. NOX Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s mission is to research, develop and commercialize proprietary drugs including Adva-27a.
 
In December 2018, the Company launched its first over-the-counter product, Essential 9, a dietary supplement comprised of the nine essential amino acids that the human body cannot synthesize. Essential 9 has been authorized for marketing by Health Canada under NPN 80089663.
 
Effective February 1, 2019, the Company completed a 20 to 1 reverse split of its $0.001 par value Common Stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,713,046,242 to 85,652,400 (the “First Reverse Stock Split”). The Company’s authorized capital of Common Stock remained as previously established at 3,000,000,000 shares.
 
Effective April 1, 2019, the Company re-assigned all of its stock in Atlas back to the original owner in exchange for the Atlas Debt. The loss on the disposition was $580,125. See “Note 12 – Acquisition and Disposition of Atlas Pharma Inc.” below for a more detailed explanation of this disposi
 
In November 2019, the Company received Health Canada approval for a new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement. Health Canada issued NPN 80093432 through which it authorized the Company to manufacture and sell the new Calcium-Vitamin D supplement under the brand name Essential Calcium-Vitamin D.
 
Effective April 6, 2020, the Company completed another 20 to 1 reverse split of its $0.001 par value Common Stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock from 1,193,501,925 to 59,675,417 (the “Second Reverse Stock Split”). The number of authorized Common Shares remained as previously established at 3,000,000,000 post-second split.
 
The Company's financial statements reflect both the First and Second Reverse Stock Split on a retroactive basis and represent the consolidated activity of Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. and NOX Pharmaceuticals Inc.) herein collectively referred to as the "Company". During the last twelve month period the Company has continued to raise money through the issuance of convertible debt.
 
 
F-6
 
 
The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s proprietary drug development program and other business activities.
 
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist the reader in understanding the Company's financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 more significant estimates and assumptions made by management are valuation of equity instruments, depreciation of property and equipment, and deferred tax asset valuation. Actual results could differ from those estimates as the current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
For the Balance Sheets and Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of 90 days or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company had a cash balance of $40,501 and $110,534 as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At times such cash balances may be in excess of the FDIC limit of $250,000 or the equivalent in Canada.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Property and equipment is reviewed for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may exceed future undiscounted cash inflows. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had not identified any such impairment. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations when incurred and improvements and renewals are capitalized.
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated methods for tax purposes. Their estimated useful lives are as follows:
 
Office Equipment:
5-7 Years
Laboratory Equipment:
5 Years
Vehicles:
5 Years
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS – PATENTS
 
The cost of patents acquired is capitalized and is amortized over the remaining life of the patents.
 
The Company evaluates recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that intangible assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of cost significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it.
 
 
F-7
 
 
The Company’s management determined that the expected cash flows would be less than the carrying amount of certain intangible assets; therefore an impairment loss was recognized in 2016. The impairment loss was calculated as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible assets exceeded fair value.
 
EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
The Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 260 regarding earnings / loss per share, which provides for calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings / loss per share. Basic earnings / loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income / loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings / loss per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings / loss per share.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
In accordance with ASC 740 – Income Taxes, the provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method. The liability method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts on the financial statements. The resulting deferred tax assets or liabilities have been adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
The Company expects to recognize the financial statement benefit of an uncertain tax position only after considering the probability that a tax authority would sustain the position in an examination. For tax positions meeting a "more-likely-than-not" threshold, the amount to be recognized in the financial statements will be the benefit expected to be realized upon settlement with the tax authority. For tax positions not meeting the threshold, no financial statement benefit is recognized. As of December 31, 2019 the Company had no uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as general and administrative expenses. The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations nor has it had any federal or state examinations since its inception. To date, the Company has not incurred any interest or tax penalties.
 
For Canadian and US tax purposes, the Company’s 2016 through 2018 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under the normal three-year statute of limitations.
 
FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY
 
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of the Company which is operating in the United States. The functional currency for the Company's Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar.
 
The Company translates its Canadian subsidiary's financial statements into U.S. dollars as follows:
 
Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date.
Income statement accounts are translated using the weighted average exchange rate for the period.
 
The Company includes translation adjustments from currency exchange and the effect of exchange rate changes on intercompany transactions of a long-term investment nature as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. There are currently no transactions of a long-term investment nature, nor any gains or losses from non U.S. currency transactions.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISKS
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions.
 
 
F-8
 
 
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company applies the provisions of accounting guidance, FASB Topic ASC 825, Financial Instruments. ASC 825 requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the fair value of cash, accounts receivable and notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other payables approximated carrying value due to the short maturity of the instruments, quoted market prices or interest rates which fluctuate with market rates.
 
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
 
Level 1 – Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
 
Level 2 – Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 
Level 3 – Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
 
The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared.
 
NOTES PAYABLE
 
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
 
ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVES LIABILITIES
 
The Company evaluates stock options, stock warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or other expense.
 
Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. The Company determined that none of the Company’s financial instruments meet the criteria for derivative accounting as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

EQUITY INSTRUMENTS ISSUED TO NON-EMPLOYEES FOR AQUIRING GOODS OR SERVICES
 
Issuances of the Company’s common stock or warrants for acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete. When it is appropriate for the Company to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is measured at the then-current fair values at each of those interim financial reporting dates.
 
NONCASH EQUITY TRANSACTIONS
 
Shares of equity instruments issued for noncash consideration are recorded at the estimated fair market value of the consideration granted based on the estimated market value of the equity instrument, or at the estimated value of the goods or services received whichever is more readily determinable.
 
RELATED PARTIES
 
A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.
 
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
General and administrative expenses consisted of professional service fees, rent and utility expenses, meals, travel and entertainment expenses, and other general and administrative overhead costs. Expenses are recognized when incurred.
 
BASIC AND DILUTED NET GAIN (LOSS) PER SHARE
 
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement.
 
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net (loss) by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the two-class method, whichever is more dilutive. As the Company incurred net losses for the year ended December 31, 2019 no potentially dilutive securities were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the impact would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Therefore, basic and dilutive net (loss) per share were the same as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
 
COMMON STOCK
 
The Company completed a 20 to 1 reverse stock split of the $0.001 par value Common Stock effective February 1, 2019. The Company completed an additional 20 to 1 reverse stock split of the $0.001 par value Common Stock effective April 6, 2020. All shares and share prices in this Report have been restated to reflect both of these reverse splits.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
As of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 201409, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606). Under the new guidance, an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. A five-step model has been introduced for an entity to apply when recognizing revenue. The new guidance also includes enhanced disclosure requirements. The guidance was effective January 1, 2018 and was applied on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. All of the revenues of the Company are the Company's wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, which sells dietary supplements through Amazon.com and Amazon.ca.
 
In Canada, governmental regulations require that companies recognize revenues upon completion of the work by issuing an invoice and remitting the applicable sales taxes (GST and QST) to the appropriate government agency. The Company’s wholly owned Canadian subsidiary's revenue recognition policy is in compliance with these local regulations.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In January 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-01, LEASES (TOPIC 842): LAND EASEMENT PRACTICAL EXPEDIENT FOR TRANSITION TO TOPIC 842. In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016- 02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing transactions. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on the financial statements.

DATE OF MANAGEMENT’S REVIEW
 
Subsequent events have been evaluated through April 30, 2020, which is the date the Financial Statements were available to be issued.
 
Note 3 – Going Concern
 
In the course of its life, the Company has had limited operations and Working Capital deficit. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes it can raise capital through equity sales and borrowing to fund its operations. Management believes this will contribute toward its subsequent profitability. The accompanying Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $13,581,556 and $12,156,898 respectively, in unused federal net operating loss carryforwards, which begin to expire principally in the year 2029. A deferred tax asset at each date of approximately $349,896 and $388,098 resulting from the loss carryforwards has been offset by a 100% valuation allowance. The change in the valuation allowance for the period ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was approximately $(38,202) and $(878,965), respectively.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures  Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operations Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
 
These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Based on this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2019, at reasonable assurance level, for the following reasons:
 
ineffective control environment and lack of qualified full-time CFO who has SEC experience to focus on our financial affairs;
 
lack of qualified and sufficient personnel, and processes to adequately and timely identify making any and all required public disclosures;
 
deficiencies in the period-end reporting process and accounting policies;
 
inadequate internal controls over the application of new accounting principles or the application of existing accounting principles to new transactions;
 
inadequate internal controls relating to the authorization, recognition, capture, and review of transactions, facts, circumstances, and events that could have a material impact on the company’s financial reporting process;
 
deficient revenue recognition policies;
 
inadequate internal controls with respect to inventory tracking and transactions; and
 
improper and lack of timely accounting for accruals such as prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
 
Our Board of Directors has assigned a priority to the short-term and long-term improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. We are reviewing various potential solutions to remedy the processes that would eliminate the issues that may arise due to the absence of separation of duties within the financial reporting functions. Additionally, the Board of Directors will work with management to continuously review controls and procedures to identified deficiencies and implement remediation within our internal controls over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures.

We believe that our financial statements presented in this annual report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.
 
Inherent Limitations – Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting – There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which were identified in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
 
Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act.  Those rules define internal control over financial reporting as a process 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 and includes those policies and procedures that: 
 
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
 
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
 
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or 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 December 31, 2019. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
 
Based on an assessment carried out in December 2019, management believes that, as of December 31, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting were ineffective based in part on the issues discussed above.

Section 3
 
3.0            
Conflict of Interest
 
Definition
 
Any position, circumstance, or situation where an employee’s personal interest conflicts, is perceived to conflict, or could potentially conflict, in any way with the interests of the Company.
 
Guiding Principles for avoiding Conflict of Interest
 
● 
Business decisions must be based on merit ensuring that the best interest of the Company is kept primary.
● 
Whether direct or indirect, there shall be no personal advantage derived from having made a business decision on behalf of the Company.
● 
Situations that may result in, or may be perceived to result in, a conflict of interest between an employee’s personal interest and those of the Company should be summarily avoided.
● 
Abstain from any decision or situation that may influence a decision related to the Company that could result in any real or perceived financial or other advantage for an employee, his or her family members, or friends.
● 
In most instances, common sense and integrity will identify the best course of action; however, should there be a circumstance, situation or position that causes even the slightest doubt on course to the decision to be made, err on the side of caution and refer the circumstance, situation or position to the Company Compliance Officer.
 
Declaring Actual, Perceived, or Potential Conflict of Interest
 
The responsibility to declare any actual, perceived or potential conflict of interest must be submitted in writing to the department manager or the Company Compliance Officer by the employee(s) involved. To assist employees in the declaration process, a specific declaration form, (Form 009) has been created and is available from the Company Compliance Officer as well as the manager of each department.
 
If in doubt about any circumstance, situation, or position, it is recommended that a form be completed and provided to the manager of the department, or the Company Compliance Officer to assist in determining the appropriate course of action.
 
3.1 
Political Participation
 
As a private citizen, an employee may participate in levels of recognized political activity during non-working hours provided these obligations do not conflict or negatively impact an employee’s duties and responsibilities as an employee of the Company. Participation must always be kept separate from the association with the Company.
 
Prior to participating as a candidate in a federal, state, provincial, or municipal election, an employee must notify his immediate supervisor in writing, no less than two (2) months prior to any election. An employee may be requested to apply for an unprotected leave of absence from his job without pay as a result.
 
It will be considered a violation of the Code should an employee use any supplies, facilities, tools, or other Company assets to support political activities.
 
 
4
 
3.2            
Non-Profit and Professional Organizations
 
The Company recognizes that employees may have an interest in contributing in a positive way to non-profit and professional organizations through active participation in a wide variety of organizations. However, this participation must not at any time interfere with individual performance of job duties during working hours.
 
● 
For those employees wishing to participate in non-profit or professional organizations, the employee’s immediate supervisor must pre-approve such participation.
● 
Should an employee be afforded the opportunity to act as a spokesperson for any organization, professional or otherwise, it must be made clear that the employee is speaking on behalf of that organization, or himself, but not as a spokesperson, agent, or representative of the Company.
 
3.3 
Outside Business Activities
 
Acting in a Director or Officer Capacity of an Organization
 
You may not act in the capacity of a Director or Officer of an organization that:
 
● Competes directly or indirectly with the Company;
● Purchases goods or services from the Company; or
● Supplies goods or services to the Company
 
Exceptions to Section 3.3 of the Code must have written pre-approval from the Board of Directors of the Company.
 
Services Performed for Another Organization
 
Employees may choose to provide services for compensation to additional organizations during non-working hours of the Company as they desire.
 
However,
 
● 
Prior to providing said services for an organization other than the Company, you must obtain written approval from the Company Compliance Officer and your immediate supervisor if the services to be provided conflict, appear to conflict, or may conflict in the future with your ability to perform your duties as an employee of the Company.
● 
The approval process is initiated by the employee by completing the appropriate request for approval form (Form 010), and submitting this to their immediate supervisor.
● 
Immediate supervisors will then be responsible to provide appropriate comments where required and to submit the completed form to the Company Compliance Officer.
● 
Failure by an employee to disclose information pertaining to the provision of services to another organization that conflicts, appears to conflict, or may conflict in the future, with an employees’ ability to perform their duties as an employee of the Company will not be an acceptable excuse for failing to meet minimum performance standards of their job duties.
 
 
5
 
 
Set out below is a list of rules to be considered by those employees wishing to provide services to another organization.
 
The absence of a specific rule in this list shall not be considered as a rule condonable by the Company on the premise that it was not identified in this list.
 
Never:
 
● 
Perform services for the other organization during Company work hours.
● 
Permit customers or colleagues from the other organization to contact you at the Company.
● 
Use any Company resources, supplies, facilities, tools, personnel, or intellectual property in the course of providing service to the other organization.
● 
Participate in an organization that offers products and/or services that could be perceived as competing for business with the Company.
● 
Perform services for a supplier of the Company.
● 
Sell products or services of a supplier of the Company.
● 
Perform services that currently or in future, may have the potential to provide current or future competitors with a competitive advantage over the Company.
● 
Promote the products and/or services of the other organization during your working hours at the Company.
● 
Perform services for an organization that competes with the Company.
● 
Perform services for an organization currently providing services for the Company or any competitors of the organization.
● 
Participate in or in any way influence the Company’s decisions to purchase goods and/or services that relate to an employment interest or business interest that may benefit an employee directly or indirectly.
● 
Perform services for an organization that would by definition result in a conflict of interest as defined by the Code.
 
3.4            
Financial Interest
 
Employees and their families (families will include spouse, children, or spouse equivalent residing together as a family) shall not own, control or direct a material financial interest (greater than 5%) in a contractor, competitor, supplier, or in any business enterprise which currently or in future may, conduct business with the Company.
 
This would include those situations when, although an employee of the Company may not directly hold the investment, the employee does have the ability to control or direct the investment.
 
Section 4
 
4.0            
Business Gifts and Hospitality
 
Employees must be judicious in the offering or acceptance of gifts and/or hospitality to or from a person or entity with which the Company currently does or seeks to do business in the future.
 
Accepting gifts and/or hospitality may compromise or appear to compromise an employees’ ability to make business decisions that are in the best interest of the Company. However, on occasion, it may be acceptable to give or receive a business related gift or hospitality when there is a business benefit to the Company.
 
 
6
 
 
Employees must consult their immediate supervisor, the department manager or the Company Compliance Officer for advice on the appropriateness of accepting or offering gifts and/or hospitality.
 
Gifts having a monetary value such as cash, gift certificates, loans, services, and discounts are not permitted. Gifts such as unsolicited advertising mementos of nominal value would generally be acceptable. Depending on the circumstances, unacceptable gifts should be returned with thanks and clarification of the Code.
 
These requirements do not change during traditional gift-giving seasons.
 
4.1            
Accepting/Offering Gifts or Hospitality
 
General Guideline
 
Prior to offering or accepting anything from a person or entity with which the Company currently does or seeks to do business in the future, the employee should ask himself:
 
● 
Is the value of the item nominal, e.g. a pen or a fridge magnet?
● 
What will the business benefit be to the Company versus the employee?
● 
Is the value and the reason for the gift or hospitality appropriate considering the situation, the people involved, and the employee’s role or function within the Company?
● 
Could it compromise or be perceived to compromise the employee’s ability to make a decision in the best interest of the Company?
● 
Would the employee be uncomfortable discussing the situation with his immediate supervisor, peers, or family?
● 
Could this be considered to be a form of bribe or kickback?
 
For all situations regarding the offering of gifts and hospitality on behalf of the Company, employees at all levels must receive appropriate approval prior to the provision of said gifts and/or hospitality. An employee should consult his immediate supervisor, department manager or the Company Compliance Officer for the Provision of Gifts/Hospitality Approval Form (Form 011).
 
Never offer, ask for, or receive:
 
● 
Any form of bribe, kickback or any other form of monetary or material gift or hospitality that may be perceived to be a bribe or kickback.
● 
Any gift, gratuity, entertainment, hospitality, or any other benefit that may compromise or be perceived to compromise the ability to make business decisions in the best interest of the Company.

Section 5
 
5.0            
Proprietary Confidential Information (“PCI”)
 
Employees are responsible to the Company to ensure maximum effort is afforded in keeping PCI confidential. This effort is necessary to:
 
● 
Safeguard assets;
