Summary

 

COMPANY OVERVIEW

 

Until December 13, 2014, Verde Science, Inc. was an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties in North America. On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with Innex California Inc. and General Crude Oil Company (together referred to as “Innex JV”) for the 8 properties in California and Texas. The Company funded the Innex JV $465,000 and but subsequently became in default of the Innex JV. On April 1, the Company announced that it is divesting itself of the Innex JV. On April 2, 2014, the Company announced that it was going to change its primary business focus from oil and gas to the medical marijuana business sector, and has been subsequently exploring potential opportunities.

 

On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with Innex California Inc. and General Crude Oil Company (together referred to as “Innex JV”) for the following projects (1) The Kettleman Dome Project (“KDEP”); (2) the Kettlemen Middle Dome McAdams (“KMDM”), (3) East Elk Hills (“EEH”), (4) South Tapo Canyon (“STC”); (5) Eel River; (6) the Oklahoma (“OK”), (7) the Kettledome Middledome Shallow (“KMDS” and (8) the West Side Joint Venture (“USJV”) . Under the terms of this Innex JV, the Company had the right to earn a 50% working interest in each well in which the Company funds. In order to maintain Innex JV, the Company had to fund one well in each of the aforementioned projects or risk losing the right to fund. The Company was also committed to fund Innex JV general and administrative costs of $40,000 per month. The first quarter budget of 2014 was approximately $5.77 million. The budget was delivered to the Company on March 1, 2014. Under the terms of the Innex JV, the Company was to fund the Innex JV by March 15, 2014. Consequently, the Company announced that it is divesting itself of the Innex JV.

 

On May 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown Energy, Inc. (“Hangtown”). Hangtown owns approximately 12,000 acres of oil and gas rights located in three separate oil field in South and Central California. Under this Agreement, the Company will provide 100% of the development costs for an initial program of 2 wells per project area, and was to receive 100% of the production cash flow until payback is achieved. After payback, the Company's working interest was to revert to 75% for the life of the 6 wells. Further to the initial development program the Company and Hangtown Energy will continue to develop the Project areas equally and jointly to maximize production at each site.

 

On May 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Financial Participation Agreement with Capistrano Capital, LLC (“Capistrano), whereby Capistrano funded the $1,160,000 to Hangtown, plus agreed to fund up to an additional $6,500,000 for drilling costs of the KMD17-18 well. As of September 30, 2013, the Capistrano had funded Hangtown $2,250,000. Capistrano will earn a net resource interest of 1 % for the lesser of 10 years or the life of the KMD17-18 well, and earn 135% of payments made to Hangtown for the drilling and completion of the well from the cash flow from the well. These amounts will be repaid annually over the next three years commencing with 1/3rd after 1 year of production, 1/3rd after 2 years of production, and 1/3rdafter three years of production. Should the cash flows from the wells fail to meet the repayment commitments the amount of any amounts due were to be carried forward to future years for repayment from cash flows from the well. Should the cash flow from the well fail to repay Capistrano the full amount of its advances to Hangtown, Capistrano has no recourse for the this shortfall from the Company. Should the KMD17-18 well be plugged and abandoned, Capistrano can elect to participate in a replacement well. If Capistrano chooses to participate, it will be given 72 hours to decide upon notice being received from the Company. Should Capistrano elect to participate, the same terms and conditions as per the KMD 17-18 well shall apply except that the costs of the KMD 17-18 well will be costs of the replacement well. As the Well has not been completed as of the date of this filing, no assets have been recorded by the Company.

At any time after the completion of KMD 17-18, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the capital it has contributed to Hangtown into equity of Hangtown at the greater of either $3.75 per share or the most recent per share valuation which Hangtown has accepted and received capital for. If the Company converts its interest into equity of Hangtown, the Company shall not have any rights or interest in the KMD 17-18 well or any additional wells as the Drilling and Participation Agreement will effectively terminate.

 

On December 16, 2013 we cancelled our Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown.

 

On June 12, 2013, we disposed of our operations in the ArkLaTex region for $10 plus the assumption of liabilities. We also cancelled the First Pacific Joint Venture. We recognized a gain of $128,755 on this sale in the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company retains an option to develop several properties in the ArkLaTex region.

 

Subsequent to December 16, 2013, the Company has been focusing on investments in the pharmaceutical industry focusing on the use of derivatives of cannabis to develop specific drugs. The research and development is planned to take place in Mumbai, India. Should any drugs be developed and approved, the manufacture, distribution and marketing of these drugs would be conducted from Mumbai, India.

 

The Company filed its articles of incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State on January 31, 2007. On May 26, 2012, Mr. Fitzgerald resigned as Director and President, and Charles Paul George replaced him as President and Director. On June 14, 2012, Mr. Harpreet Sangha was appointed as Director and Chairman and Mr. Chuck Bingle was appointed Director. On August 3, 2012 Mr. Chuck Bingle resigned as a Director. On January 16, 2013, Mr. Harpreet Sangha was appointed as Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Herm Rai was appointed as a Director and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. On April 1, 2014 our Chief Financial Officer and Director Hermander Rai resigned, consequently Mr. Harpreet Sanga, the Company’s President, took over the Chief Financial Officer position as well. On May 14, 2014, the Company announced that Louis Bobadilla III was appointed as a Director of the Company. On September 8, 2014 Louis Bobadilla III resigned as a director of the Company.

BANKRUPTCY OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS

 

We have not been the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings.

 

COMPETITION AND MARKETS

 

We face competition from other oil and natural gas companies in all aspects of our business, including acquisition of producing properties and oil and natural gas leases, marketing of oil and natural gas, and obtaining goods, services and labor. Many of our competitors have substantially larger financial and other resources than we have. Factors that affect our ability to acquire producing properties include available funds, available information about prospective properties and our limited number of employees.

The availability of a ready market for and the price of any hydrocarbons produced will depend on many factors beyond our control including, but not limited to, the amount of domestic production and imports of foreign oil and liquefied natural gas, the marketing of competitive fuels, the proximity and capacity of natural gas pipelines, the availability of transportation and other market facilities, the demand for hydrocarbons, the effect of federal and state regulation of allowable rates of production, taxation, the conduct of drilling operations and federal regulation of natural gas. All of these factors, together with economic factors in the marketing arena, generally affect the supply of and/or demand for oil and natural gas and thus the prices available for sales of oil and natural gas.

 

With respect to the pharmaceutical business in which the Company is planning to enter, we face competition from other existing pharmaceutical companies in all aspects of our business, including acquisition of development of drugs from extracts of cannabis. Many of our competitors have substantially larger financial and other resources than we have. Factors that affect our ability to develop the pharmaceutical include available funds, available information about targeted pharmaceuticals and our limited number of employees.

 

The development of pharmaceuticals is a timely and costly procedure which involves animal and human testing under rigorous procedures established by the regulators of the pharmaceutical industry. Should any pharmaceuticals be developed, there is no assurances that there is a ready market for the pharmaceuticals; and or whether the price of the pharmaceuticals manufactured produced are economical. The development of the pharmaceuticals will depend on many factors beyond our control including, but not limited to, the amount of competitive pharmaceuticals developed, the acceptance of any pharmaceuticals developed by the medical industry, the cost of production of the pharmaceuticals developed, the market price of the pharmaceuticals developed, taxation, the conduct of manufacturing and research and development operations and regulations of the development of the pharmaceuticals.

 

REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

 

With respect to our oil and gas operations, proposals and proceedings that might affect the oil and gas industry are periodically presented to Congress, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”), the Minerals Management Service (“MMS”), state legislatures and commissions and the courts. We cannot predict when or whether any such proposals may become effective. This industry is heavily regulated. There is no assurance that the regulatory approach currently pursued by various agencies will continue indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except for the water quality issue described below, we currently do not anticipate that compliance with existing federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, will have a material or significantly adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. No material portion of our business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the federal government.

 

Our operations are subject to various types of regulation at the federal, state and local levels. This regulation includes requiring permits for drilling wells, maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells and regulating the location of wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the surface use and restoration of properties upon which wells are drilled, the plugging and abandoning of wells and the disposal of fluids used or generated in connection with operations. Our operations are also subject to various conservation laws and regulations. These include the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units and the density of wells which may be drilled and the unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties. In addition, state conservation laws sometimes establish maximum rates of production from oil and natural gas wells, generally prohibit the venting or flaring of natural gas and impose certain requirements regarding the ratability of production. The effect of these regulations may limit the amount of oil and natural gas we can produce from our wells in a given state and may limit the number of wells or the locations at which we can drill.

Currently, there are no federal, state or local laws that regulate the price for our sales of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil or condensate. However, the rates charged and terms and conditions for the movement of gas in interstate commerce through certain intrastate pipelines and production area hubs are subject to regulation under the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, as amended. Pipeline and hub construction activities are, to a limited extent, also subject to regulations under the Natural Gas Act of 1938, as amended. While these controls do not apply directly to us, their effect on natural gas markets can be significant in terms of competition and cost of transportation services, which in turn can have a substantial impact on our profitability and costs of doing business. Additional proposals and proceedings that might affect the natural gas and crude oil extraction industry are considered from time to time by Congress, FERC, state regulatory bodies and the courts. We cannot predict when or if any such proposals might become effective and their effect, if any, on our operations. We do not believe that we will be affected by any action taken in any materially different respect from other crude oil and natural gas producers, gatherers and marketers with whom we compete.

 

State regulation of gathering facilities generally includes various safety, environmental and in some circumstances, non-discriminatory take requirements. This regulation has not generally been applied against producers and gatherers of natural gas to the same extent as processors, although natural gas gathering may receive greater regulatory scrutiny in the future.

 

Various federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, directly impact oil and natural gas exploration, development and production operations, and consequently may impact our operations and costs. These regulations include, among others, (i) regulations by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), and various state agencies regarding approved methods of disposal for certain hazardous and non-hazardous wastes; (ii) the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, and analogous state laws, which regulate the removal or remediation of previously disposed wastes (including wastes disposed of or released by prior owners or operators), property contamination (including groundwater contamination), and remedial plugging operations to prevent future contamination; (iii) the Clean Air Act and comparable state and local requirements, which may require certain pollution controls with respect to air emissions from our operations; (iv) the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, which contains numerous requirements relating to the prevention of and response to oil spills into waters of the United States; (v) the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, which is the principal federal statute governing the treatment, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes.

 

To date, compliance with environmental laws and regulations has not required the expenditure of any material amount of money. Since environmental laws and regulations are periodically amended, we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance. To our knowledge, other than the potential water quality issue described above, there are currently no material adverse environmental conditions that exist on any of our properties and there are no current or threatened actions or claims by any local, state or federal agency, or by any private landowner against us pertaining to such a condition. Further, we are not aware of any currently existing condition or circumstance that may give rise to such actions or claims in the future.

 

With respect to our proposed entry to the pharmaceutical industry, should the federal government legalize marijuana for medical use in the United States, it is possible that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) would seek to regulate it under the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1938. Additionally, the FDA may issue rules and regulations including cGMPs (certified good manufacturing practices) related to the growth, cultivation, harvesting and processing of medical marijuana. Clinical trials may be needed to verify efficacy and safety. It is also possible that the FDA would require that facilities where medical marijuana is grown be registered with the FDA and comply with certain federally prescribed regulations. In the event that some or all of these regulations are imposed, we do not know what the impact would be on the medical marijuana industry, what costs, requirements and possible prohibitions may be enforced. If we or our tenants are unable to comply with the regulations and or registration as prescribed by the FDA, we and/or our tenants may be unable to continue to operate their and our business in its current form or at all.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

We have been in the oil business and are entering into a new business, the pharmaceutical industry, and we expect to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future.

 

We were incorporated on January 31, 2007 and to date have recently been involved in the organizational activities, and acquisition of our claims. We have no way to evaluate the likelihood that our business will be successful. We have earned minimal revenues as of the date of this annual report. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by fledging pharmaceutical research and development companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the research and development required to develop new pharmaceuticals from cannabis. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to research and development including sourcing the derivative of cannabis required for the research and development; maintaining a consistent standard of the derivative of cannabis to act a basis for the research and development; the recruiting, management, and retaining of suitable staff to conduct the research and development activities; and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. Prior to completion of our research and development, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without any revenues. We expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if the research and development does not develop desired pharmaceuticals that we will not be able to continue business operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and it is doubtful that we will generate significant revenues to achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

We have yet to earn significant revenue to achieve profitability and our ability to sustain our operations is dependent on our ability to raise additional financing to complete our program if warranted. As a result, our accountant believes there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We have accrued accumulated net losses of $7,015,883 at December 31, 2014. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of our business. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors, has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds by issuing new debt or equity securities or otherwise. If we fail to raise sufficient capital when needed, we will not be able to complete our business plan. As a result we may have to liquidate our business and you may lose your investment. You should consider our auditor's comments when determining if an investment in our company is suitable.

 

Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in pharmaceutical industry or with oil and gas ventures, we face a high risk of business failure.

 

You should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by research and development companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the research and development on the pharmaceuticals that we plan to develop. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to obtaining a consistent supply of derivatives from cannabis, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. If the results of our research and development program do not reveal viable commercialization options, we may decide to abandon our venture into the pharmaceutical industry. Our ability to continue in the research and development of pharmaceuticals will be dependent upon our possessing adequate capital resources when needed. If no funding is available, we may be forced to abandon our operations.

 

Because of the inherent dangers involved in pharmaceutical industry, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business.

 

The research and development of drugs involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. At the present time we have no insurance to cover against these hazards. The payment of such liabilities may result in our inability to complete our planned program and/or obtain additional financing to fund our program.

 

As we undertake the research and development activities, we will be subject to compliance with government regulation that may increase the anticipated cost of our program.

 

There are several governmental regulations that materially research and development activities using the derivatives of cannabis. We will be subject to regulations and laws as we carry out our program. We will require licences to grow and develop the derivatives of cannabis required for our research and development activities in India. We will require secured facilities to conduct the research and development activities. Should any pharmaceuticals be developed, we will have restrictive government regulations governing the testing of the pharmaceuticals which may involve the use of animals and the use of humans if successful with the animals the cost of complying with the regulatory laws could be cost prohibitive. Regulations will control all aspects of the research and development activities. There is a risk that new regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from carrying out our research and development.

 

Given the unlikely development of pharmaceutical drugs, based on consumer demand, the growth and demand for pharmaceutical developed may be negligible resulting in limited revenues to the company.

 

Our success will be dependent on not only the development of pharmaceuticals, and the acceptance of these potential pharmaceuticals by the medical industry. If consumer demand is not existent our potential revenues may be significantly affected. This could limit our ability to generate revenues and our financial condition and operating results may be harmed.

 

 
10

 

Because we have no operating history in the cannabis industry, we may not succeed. 

 

While our CEO, Harp Sangha, has experience in real estate transactions and in the public markets, we have no specific operating history or experience in procuring, building out or leasing real estate for agricultural purposes, specifically marijuana grow facilities, or with respect to any other activity in the cannabis industry. Moreover, we are subject to all risks inherent in a developing a new business enterprise. Our likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with establishing a new business and the competitive and regulatory environment in which we operate. For example, the medical marijuana industry is new and may not succeed, particularly should the federal government change course and decide to prosecute those dealing in medical marijuana. If that happens there may not be an adequate market for our properties or other activities we propose to engage in.

 

You should further consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stages. For example, unanticipated expenses, delays and or complications with build outs, zoning issues, legal disputes with neighbors, local governments, communities and or tenants. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating strategies. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and could impair the value of our common stock to the point investors may lose their entire investment.

 

Because we may be unable to identify and/or successfully develop or acquire assets which are suitable for our business, our financial condition may be negatively affected.

 

Our business plan involves the identification and the successful pharmaceutical applications utilizing cannabis. We do not know whether we will be successful in identifying or successfully developing or acquiring assets of economic value.

 

Because our business is dependent upon continued market acceptance by consumers, any negative trends will adversely affect our business operations.

 

We are substantially dependent on continued market acceptance and proliferation of consumers of medical marijuana. We believe that as marijuana becomes more accepted the stigma associated with marijuana use will diminish and as a result consumer demand will continue to grow. And while we believe that the market and opportunity in the marijuana space continues to grow, we cannot predict the future growth rate and size of the market. Any negative outlook on the cannabis industry will adversely affect our business operations. 

 

In addition, it is believed by many that large well-funded businesses may have a strong economic opposition to the cannabis industry. We believe that the pharmaceutical industry clearly does not want to cede control of any product that could generate significant revenue. For example, should cannabis based pharmaceuticals displace other drugs or encroach upon the pharmaceutical industry’s products. The pharmaceutical industry is well funded with a strong and experienced lobby that eclipses the funding of the medical marijuana movement. Any inroads the pharmaceutical industry could make in halting the impending cannabis industry could have a detrimental impact on our proposed business. 

 

Because marijuana is illegal under federal law, we could be subject to criminal and civil sanctions for engaging in activities that violate those laws.

 

The U.S. Government classifies marijuana as a schedule-I controlled substance. As a result, marijuana is an illegal substance under federal law. Even in those jurisdictions in which the use of medical marijuana has been legalized at the state level, its prescription is a violation of federal law. The United States Supreme Court has ruled in United States v. Oakland Cannabis Buyers' Coop. and Gonzales v. Raichthat it is the federal government that has the right to regulate and criminalize cannabis, even for medical purposes. Therefore, federal law criminalizing the use of marijuana pre-empts state laws that legalizes its use for medicinal purposes. 

 

 
11

 

As of November 12, 2014, 22 states and the District of Columbia allow its citizens to use medical marijuana. Additionally, voters in the states of Colorado, Alaska, Oregon and Washington approved ballot measures to legalize cannabis for adult use. The state laws are in conflict with the federal Controlled Substances Act, which makes marijuana use and possession illegal on a national level. The Obama administration has effectively stated that it is not an efficient use of resources to direct law federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state-designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical marijuana. However, there is no guarantee that the administration will not change its stated policy regarding the low-priority enforcement of federal laws. Additionally, any new administration that follows could change this policy and decide to enforce the federal laws strongly. Any such change in the federal government's enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial damage to us and our shareholders. 

 

We will require medical marijuana for our research facilities. Consequently we will be required to follow the strict guidelines required by regulation for the management of our facilities.

 

Laws and regulations affecting the regulated marijuana industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our proposed operations, and we cannot predict the impact that future regulations may have on us.

 

Local, state and federal medical marijuana laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on its operations. In addition, it is possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our proposed business. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.

 

FDA regulation of marijuana and the possible registration of facilities where medical marijuana is grown could negatively affect the cannabis industry which would directly affect our financial condition. 

 

Should the federal government legalize marijuana for medical use, it is possible that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) would seek to regulate it under the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1938. Additionally, the FDA may issue rules and regulations including cGMPs (certified good manufacturing practices) related to the growth, cultivation, harvesting and processing of medical marijuana. Clinical trials may be needed to verify efficacy and safety. It is also possible that the FDA would require that facilities where medical marijuana is grown be registered with the FDA and comply with certain federally prescribed regulations. In the event that some or all of these regulations are imposed, we do not know what the impact would be on the medical marijuana industry, what costs, requirements and possible prohibitions may be enforced. If we or our tenants are unable to comply with the regulations and or registration as prescribed by the FDA, we and/or our tenants may be unable to continue to operate their and our business in its current form or at all. 

 

Because our business model depends upon the availability of private financing, any change in our ability to raise money will adversely affect our financial condition. 

 

Our ability to operate laboratory and manufacturing facilities, engage in the business activities that we have planned and achieve positive financial performance depends, in large measure, on our ability to obtain financing in amounts and on terms that are favorable. The capital markets in the United States have recently undergone a turbulent period in which lending was severely restricted. Although there appears to be signs that financial institutions are resuming lending, the market has not yet returned to its pre-2008 state. Obtaining favorable financing in the current environment remains challenging.

 

 
12

 

Because we are liable for hazardous substances on our properties, environmental liabilities are possible and can be costly. 

 

Federal, state and local laws impose liability on a landowner for releases or the otherwise improper presence on the premises of hazardous substances. This liability is without regard to fault for, or knowledge of, the presence of such substances. A landowner may be held liable for hazardous materials brought onto a property before it acquired title and for hazardous materials that are not discovered until after it sells the property. Similar liability may occur under applicable state law. Sellers of properties may make only limited representations as to the absence of hazardous substances. If any hazardous materials are found within our properties in violation of law at any time, we may be liable for all cleanup costs, fines, penalties and other costs. This potential liability will continue after we sell the properties and may apply to hazardous materials present within the properties before we acquire the properties. If losses arise from hazardous substance contamination which cannot be recovered from a responsible party, the financial viability of the properties may be adversely affected. It is possible that we will purchase properties with known or unknown environmental problems which may require material expenditures for remediation. 

 

If we are found non-compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, we will be subject to significant liabilities. 

 

If any of our properties are not in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (the “ADA”), we may be required to pay for any required improvements. Under the ADA, public accommodations must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The ADA requirements could require significant expenditures and could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. We cannot assure that ADA violations do not or will not exist at any of our properties.

 

Because our current officers and directors have other business interests, they may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operations, causing our business to fail.

 

Our current officers and directors currently devotes up to 10 hours per week providing services to the company. While they presently possess adequate time to attend to our interest, it is possible that the demands on them from other obligations could increase, with the result that they would no longer be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business. This could negatively impact our business development.

 

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL CAPITAL THAT WE MAY REQUIRE TO IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN. THIS WOULD RESTRICT OUR ABILITY TO GROW.

 

The proceeds from our private offerings completed in 2007 and funds borrowed since this private offering, provide us with a limited amount of working capital and is not sufficient to fund our proposed operations. We will require additional capital to continue to operate our business and our proposed operations. We may be unable to obtain additional capital as and when required.

 

Future acquisitions and future development, production and marketing activities, as well as our administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses and general overhead expenses, as well as legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.

 

We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. If we do not succeed in raising additional capital, the capital we have received to date may not be sufficient to fund our operations going forward without obtaining additional capital financing.

 

Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity may dilute your ownership percentage. This could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities because our assets would be owned by a larger pool of outstanding equity. The terms of securities we issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable to our new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, and issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have a further dilutive effect.

  

 
13

 

Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both generally and in the pharmaceutical industry in particular), our status as a new enterprise without a demonstrated operating history, the location of our proposed research and development facilities or the attraction and subsequent retention of key management. Further, if we are unable to develop a suitable pharmaceutical drug, or if competitive pharmaceutical companies develop a similar drug, then our potential revenues will be minimal, and such may increase our requirements for capital or make capital difficult to raise. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, we may be required to cease our operations.

 

We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial condition.

 

AMENDMENTS TO CURRENT LAWS AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING OUR PROPOSED OPERATIONS COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE IMPACT ON OUR PROPOSED BUSINESS.

 

Our business will be subject to substantial regulation under state and federal laws relating to the research and development of pharmaceutical drugs; and if successful in developing a targeted pharmaceutical, the manufacture and marketing of the pharmaceutical drug. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of research and development activities involving cannabis could have a material adverse impact on our proposed business. In addition, there can be no assurance that income tax laws and other regulations and government programs related to the pharmaceutical industry generally, will not be changed in a manner which may adversely affect us and cause delays, inability to complete or abandonment of properties.

 

Permits, leases, licenses, and approvals are required from a variety of regulatory authorities at various stages of the testing of proposed pharmaceuticals. There can be no assurance that the Company will meet the various government approvals sought.

 

INCREASES IN OUR OPERATING EXPENSES WILL IMPACT OUR OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

 

Research and Development costs, testing, production, marketing (including distribution costs) and regulatory compliance costs (including taxes) will substantially impact the net revenues we derive any pharmaceutical which we may or may not develop. These costs are subject to fluctuations and variation in different locales in which we will operate, and we may not be able to predict or control these costs. If these costs exceed our expectations, this may adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, we may not be able to earn net revenue at our predicted levels, which may impact our ability to satisfy our obligations.

 

PENALTIES WE MAY INCUR COULD IMPAIR OUR BUSINESS.

 

Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, could require us to forfeit property rights, and may affect the value of our assets. We may also be required to take corrective actions, such as installing additional equipment or taking other actions, each of which could require us to make substantial capital expenditures. We could also be required to indemnify our employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them. As a result, our future business prospects could deteriorate due to regulatory constraints, and our profitability could be impaired by our obligation to provide such indemnification to our employees.

 

CHALLENGES TO TITLE TO ANY PRODUCTS DEVELOPED MAY IMPACT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

 

If we fail to protect any intellectual property developed by our research and development activities through patents, third parties may claim title to our intellectual property. Obtaining patents to intellectual property can incur substantial expense. While we intend to protect any intellectual property, title defects may exist. In addition, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance for title defects, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all. If title defects do exist, it is possible that we may lose all or a portion of our right, title and interests in and to the intellectual properties to which the title defects relate.

  

THE LIMITED TRADING OF OUR COMMON STOCK ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD MAY IMPAIR YOUR ABILITY TO SELL YOUR SHARES.

 

There have been thin volumes of trading of our common stock. The lack of trading of our common stock and the low volume of any future trading may impair your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. Such factors may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or technologies by using common stock as consideration.

 

 
14

 

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY VOLATILE AND SUBJECT TO WIDE FLUCTUATIONS.

 

Assuming we are able to establish an active trading market for our common stock, the market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:

 

 *

dilution caused by our issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms of equity securities, which we expect to make in connection with future capital financings to fund our operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies;

   

 *

announcements of acquisitions, discoveries or other business initiatives by our competitors;

   

 *

fluctuations in revenue if any, from our business;

   

 *

changes in the market for pharmaceuticals or in the capital markets generally;

   

 *

quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;

   

 *

changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and in other industries;

   

 *

changes in analysts' estimates affecting us, our competitors or our industry;

   

 *

changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry;

   

 *

additions and departures of key personnel;

   

 *

fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets; and

 

These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singly or in the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and our results of operations and financial condition.

  

OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY, AND THESE FLUCTUATIONS MAY CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.

 

Our operating results will likely vary in the future primarily as the result of fluctuations in our revenues and operating expenses, expenses that we incur, and other factors. If our results of operations do not meet the expectations of current or potential investors, the price of our common stock may decline.

 

 
15

 

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

 

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all. Investors cannot be assured of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment in the common stock.

 

APPLICABLE SEC RULES GOVERNING THE TRADING OF "PENNY STOCKS" WILL LIMIT THETRADING AND LIQUIDITY OF OUR COMMON STOCK, WHICH MAY AFFECT THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

Our common stock is presently considered to be a "penny stock" and is subject to SEC rules and regulations which impose limitations upon the manner in which such shares may be publicly traded and regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks." Penny stocks generally are 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). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules which may increase the difficulty investors may experience in attempting to liquidate such securities.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results are likely to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons.

The 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 quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) 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 Securities' laws; (c) 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; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) 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 (d) 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 suitably written statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, if our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

Forward Looking Statements

 

This section of this report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of our report.

Results of Operations

 

On April 2, 2014, the Company announced that it was going to change its primary business focus from oil and gas to the medical marijuana business sector, and has been subsequently exploring potential opportunities.

 

On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with Innex California Inc. and General Crude Oil Company (together referred to as “Innex JV”) for the following projects (1) The Kettleman Dome Project (“KDEP”); (2) the Kettlemen Middle Dome McAdams (“KMDM”), (3) East Elk Hills (“EEH”), (4) South Tapo Canyon (“STC”); (5) Eel River; (6) the Oklahoma (“OK”), (7) the Kettledome Middledome Shallow (“KMDS” and (8) the West Side Joint Venture (“USJV”) . Under the terms of this Innex JV, the Company has the right to earn a 50% working interest in each well in which the Company funds. In order to maintain Innex JV, the Company must fund one well in each of the aforementioned projects or risk losing the right to fund. The Company must also fund Innex JV general and administrative costs of $40,000 per month.

 

The first quarter budget was approximately $5.77 million. The budget was delivered to the Company on March 1, 2014. Under the terms of the Innex JV, the Company was to fund the Innex JV by March 15, 2014. On April 1, the Company announced that it is divesting itself of the Innex JV.

 

On May 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown Energy, Inc. (“Hangtown”). Hangtown owns approximately 12,000 acres of oil and gas rights located in three separate oil field in South and Central California. Under this Agreement, the Company will provide 100% of the development costs for an initial program of 2 wells per project area, and was to receive 100% of the production cash flow until payback is achieved. After payback, the Company's working interest was to revert to 75% for the life of the 6 wells. Further to the initial development program the Company and Hangtown Energy will continue to develop the Project areas equally and jointly to maximize production at each site.

 

On May 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Financial Participation Agreement with Capistrano Capital, LLC (“Capistrano), whereby Capistrano funded the $1,160,000 to Hangtown, plus agreed to fund up to an additional $6,500,000 for drilling costs of the KMD17-18 well. As of September 30, 2013, the Capistrano had funded Hangtown $2,250,000. Capistrano will earn a net resource interest of 1 % for the lesser of 10 years or the life of the KMD17-18 well, and earn 135% of payments made to Hangtown for the drilling and completion of the well from the cash flow from the well. These amounts will be repaid annually over the next three years commencing with 1/3rd after 1 year of production, 1/3rd after 2 years of production, and 1/3rd after three years of production. Should the cash flows from the wells fail to meet the repayment commitments the amount of any amounts due will be carried forward to future years for repayment from cash flows from the well. Should the cash flow from the well fail to repay Capistrano the full amount of its advances to Hangtown, Capistrano has no recourse for the this shortfall from the Company. Should the KMD17-18 well be plugged and abandoned, Capistrano can elect to participate in a replacement well. If Capistrano chooses to participate, it will be given 72 hours to decide upon notice being received from the Company. Should Capistrano elect to participate, the same terms and conditions as per the KMD 17-18 well shall apply except that the costs of the KMD 17-18 well will be costs of the replacement well. As the Well has not been completed as of the date of this filing, no assets have been recorded by the Company.

 

At any time after the completion of KMD 17-18, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the capital it has contributed to Hangtown into equity of Hangtown at the greater of either $3.75 per share or the most recent per share valuation which Hangtown has accepted and received capital for. If the Company converts its interest into equity of Hangtown, the Company shall not have any rights or interest in the KMD 17-18 well or any additional wells as the Drilling and Participation Agreement will effectively terminate.

 

 
19

 

On December 16, 2013 cancelled its Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown.

 

On September 12, 2013, the Company returned the balance of the trust funds held on behalf of First Pacific as First Pacific informed the Company that it will not be completing the $800,000 financing. Consequently, the Company returned the $232,500 held by its lawyers to First Pacific, and wrote down the $250,000 Deferred Gain. This resulted in a net gain of $17,500 on the sale of its oil leases. In addition, the Company paid the operator an additional $11,729 for disposal fees related to the lease; total cash paid as a result of the sale is $244,229. Due to the sale of the leases, the Asset Retirement Obligation balance of $122,484 as also removed from the books. The net effect of the transaction resulted in a gain on the sale of leases of $128,255 in 2013. On May 24, 2011, the Company entered into a Farm-Out Agreement with First Pacific Oil and Gas Ltd. (“First Pacific”). Under this Agreement First Pacific has acquired the right to earn 50% of the Company’s working interest in its existing 12 hydrocarbon wells located in Southern Arkansas. Under this Agreement First Pacific has paid the Company $250,000; and will pay $800,000 on or before September 30, 2013. The Company retained a 50% working interest. First Pacific was to earn its working interest upon improvements of the existing hydrocarbon wells being completed with the final $800,000 investment.

 

We have generated limited revenues to date with $0 in 2014. In the discontinued operations with respect to First Pacific, in the year ending December 31, 2013 we generated $132,024. Our net income from discontinued operations was $139,980 in 2013.

 

We incurred net loss from continuing operations of $2,147,479 for the year ending December 31, 2014 as compared to $938,121 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Consulting fees were $1,740,087 (mostly due to shares and warrants being issued to consultants valued at $1,611,413 during the year) as compared to 2013 where Consulting fees were $707,281 (mostly due to 1,500,000 shares being issued to consultants valued at $513,750 during the year). Professional fees were down to $78,045 versus 2013 where the professional fees were $160,850 due to the disposition of the Arklatex assets, the Hangtown Agreement, and the Innex JV.

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have only begun generating revenues and there is no assurance we will ever reach profitability. We have generated minimal revenues to date.

 

The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash balance at December 31, 2014 was $128 with outstanding liabilities of $794,638 as compared with a cash balance at December 31, 2013 of $203 with outstanding liabilities of $507,753. Management believes our current cash balance will be unable to sustain operations for the next 12 months. We will be forced to raise additional funds by issuing new debt or equity securities or otherwise. If we fail to raise sufficient capital when needed, we will not be able to complete our business plan.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Our cash balance is $128 and $203 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We believe our cash balance is insufficient to fund our levels of operations for the next twelve months. As a result we will be forced to raise additional funds by issuing new debt or equity securities or otherwise. If we fail to raise sufficient capital when needed, we will not be able to complete our business plan.

 

Our auditor has issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have generated minimal revenues to date. There is no assurance we will ever reach profitability.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors
Verde Science, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Verde Science, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the each of the twelve month periods then ended, These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Verde Science, Inc. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and maintains a working capital deficit. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. See Note 1 to the financial statements for further information regarding this uncertainty.

Footnotes to the Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

 

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND HISTORY – Verde Science, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") was incorporated on January 31, 2007 by filing Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State. The Company was formed to engage in the exploration of resource properties. On January 31, 2012, the Company changed its name from Avro Energy, Inc. to Rango Energy, Inc. On April 2, 2014, the Company announced that it was entering into the pharmaceutical industry focusing on the use of derivatives of cannabis to develop specific drugs. On May 7, 2014, the Company changed its name from Rango Energy, Inc. to Verde Science, Inc.

 

On May 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown Energy, Inc. (“Hangtown”). Hangtown owns approximately 12,000 acres of oil and gas rights located in three separate oil field in South and Central California. Under this Agreement, the Company will provide 100% of the development costs for an initial program of 2 wells per project area, and will receive 100% of the production cash flow until payback is achieved. After payback, the Company's working interest will revert to 75% for the life of the 6 wells. Further to the initial development program the Company and Hangtown Energy will continue to develop the Project areas equally and jointly to maximize production at each site. On December 16, 2013 the Company cancelled its Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown.

 

On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with Innex California Inc. and General Crude Oil Company (together referred to as “Innex JV”) for the following projects (1) The Kettleman Dome Project (“KDEP”); (2) the Kettlemen Middle Dome McAdams (“KMDM”), (3) East Elk Hills (“EEH”), (4) South Tapo Canyon (“STC”); (5) Eel River; (6) the Oklahoma (“OK”), (7) the Kettledome Middledome Shallow (“KMDS” and (8) the West Side Joint Venture (“USJV”) . Under the terms of this Innex JV, the Company has the right to earn a 50% working interest in each well in which the Company funds. In order to maintain Innex JV, the Company must fund one well in each of the aforementioned projects or risk losing the right to fund. The Company must also fund Innex JV general and administrative costs of $40,000 per month.

 

The first quarter of 2014 budget was approximately $5.77 million. The budget was delivered to the Company on March 1, 2014. Under the terms of the Innex JV, the Company was to fund the Innex JV by March 15, 2014. On April 1, the Company announced that it is divesting itself of the Innex JV. On April 2, 2014, the Company announced that it was changing its business and have developed a business plan which involves the development of pharmaceutical drugs utilizing cannabis resin.

 

GOING CONCERN - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company suffered reoccurring net losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred an accumulated loss of $7,015,883 as of December 31, 2014 and has generated revenues of $744,939 over the same period in discontinued operations. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of acquisitions. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

RESOURCE PROPERTIES – Company has followed the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas properties.

 

Unproved oil and gas properties are periodically assessed and any impairment in value is charged to exploration expense. The costs of unproved properties, which are determined to be productive are transferred to proved resource properties and amortized on an equivalent unit-of-production basis. Exploratory expenses, including geological and geophysical expenses and delay rentals for unevaluated resource properties, are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs are charged as expenses until it is determined that the company has proven oil and gas reserves.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION -These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

 

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate our estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents. We had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2014 or 2013, respectively.

 

INCOME TAXES - Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

 

COMPREHENSIVE LOSS - ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.

 

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION - ASC 718, Stock-based compensation, establishes standards for the reporting and display of stock based compensation in the financial statements.

 

 
28

 

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

  

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of December 31, 2014 and 2013:

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update which adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The update requires entities to disclose additional information about reclassification adjustments, including changes in accumulated other comprehensive income balances by component and significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The update was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2013. The update primarily impacted our disclosures and did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In July 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or portion thereof, in the statement of financial position as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward or a tax credit carryforward, with certain exceptions related to availability. The update was effective in the first quarter of 2014. The update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provides new guidance that requires share-based compensation to meet a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation costs should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements of development stage entities. The amendments in this update remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, thereby improving financial reporting by eliminating the cost and complexity associated with providing that information. The amendments in this Update also eliminate an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, Consolidation, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The amendments to eliminate that exception simplify U.S. GAAP by reducing avoidable complexity in existing accounting literature and improve the relevance of information provided to financial statement users by requiring the application of the same consolidation guidance by all reporting entities. The elimination of the exception may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a reporting entity that has an interest in an entity in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 should be applied retrospectively except for the clarification to Topic 275, which shall be applied prospectively. For public companies, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The early adoption of ASU 2014-10 is permitted which removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard that requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the standard (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The standard in this Update is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In November 2014, the FASB issued new guidance for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. That is, an entity will continue to evaluate whether the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative feature are clearly and closely related to those of the host contract, among other relevant criteria. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. The effects of initially adopting the amendments in this Update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to existing hybrid financial instruments issued in the form of a share as of the beginning of the fiscal year for which the amendments are effective. Retrospective application is permitted to all relevant prior periods. The adoption of ASU 2014-16 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In November 2014, the FASB issued guidance to provide an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. After the effective date, an acquired entity can make an election to apply the guidance to future change-in-control events or to its most recent change-in-control event. However, if the financial statements for the period in which the most recent change-in-control event occurred already have been issued or made available to be issued, the application of this guidance would be a change in accounting principle. The amendments in this Update are effective on November 18, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-17 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 3. DISCOUNTINUED OPERATIONS

 

The Company is discontinuing its activities in the oil and gas industry and focusing its activities on the marijuana consulting industry.

Innex Drilling and Participation Agreement

 

On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement with Innex California Inc. and General Crude Oil Company (together referred to as “Innex JV”) for the following projects (1) The Kettleman Dome Project (“KDEP”); (2) the Kettlemen Middle Dome McAdams (“KMDM”), (3) East Elk Hills (“EEH”), (4) South Tapo Canyon (“STC”); (5) Eel River; (6) the Oklahoma (“OK”), (7) the Kettledome Middledome Shallow (“KMDS” and (8) the West Side Joint Venture (“USJV”) . Under the terms of this Innex JV, the Company has the right to earn a 50% working interest in each well in which the Company funds. In order to maintain Innex JV, the Company must fund one well in each of the aforementioned projects or risk losing the right to fund. The Company must also fund Innex JV general and administrative costs of $40,000 per month.

 

The first quarter budget was approximately $5.77 million. The budget was delivered to the Company on March 1, 2014. Under the terms of the Innex JV, the Company was to fund the Innex JV the budget requirements by March 15, 2014. During the quarter the Company made lease payments totalling $465,000 to the Innex JV.

Hangtown Drilling and Participation Agreement

 

On May 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown Energy, Inc. (“Hangtown”). Hangtown owns approximately 12,000 acres of oil and gas rights located in three separate oil field in South and Central California. Under this Agreement, the Company will provide 100% of the development costs for an initial program of 2 wells per project area, and was to receive 100% of the production cash flow until payback is achieved. After payback, the Company's working interest was to revert to 75% for the life of the 6 wells. Further to the initial development program the Company and Hangtown Energy will continue to develop the Project areas equally and jointly to maximize production at each site.

 

On May 31, 2013, the Company entered into a Financial Participation Agreement with Capistrano Capital, LLC (“Capistrano), whereby Capistrano funded the $1,160,000 to Hangtown, plus agreed to fund up to an additional $6,500,000 for drilling costs of the KMD17-18 well. As of September 30, 2013, the Capistrano had funded Hangtown $2,250,000. Capistrano will earn a net resource interest of 1 % for the lesser of 10 years or the life of the KMD17-18 well, and earn 135% of payments made to Hangtown for the drilling and completion of the well from the cash flow from the well. These amounts will be repaid annually over the next three years commencing with 1/3rd after 1 year of production, 1/3rd after 2 years of production, and 1/3rd after three years of production. Should the cash flows from the wells fail to meet the repayment commitments the amount of any amounts due will be carried forward to future years for repayment from cash flows from the well. Should the cash flow from the well fail to repay Capistrano the full amount of its advances to Hangtown, Capistrano has no recourse for this shortfall from the Company. Should the KMD17-18 well be plugged and abandoned, Capistrano can elect to participate in a replacement well. If Capistrano chooses to participate, it will be given 72 hours to decide upon notice being received from the Company. Should Capistrano elect to participate, the same terms and conditions as per the KMD 17-18 well shall apply except that the costs of the KMD 17-18 well will be costs of the replacement well. As the Well has not been completed as of the date of this filing, no assets have been recorded by the Company.

 

At any time after the completion of KMD 17-18, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the capital it has contributed to Hangtown into equity of Hangtown at the greater of either $3.75 per share or the most recent per share valuation which Hangtown has accepted and received capital for. If the Company converts its interest into equity of Hangtown, the Company shall not have any rights or interest in the KMD 17-18 well or any additional wells as the Drilling and Participation Agreement will effectively terminate.

 

On December 16, 2013 the Company cancelled its Drilling and Participation Agreement with Hangtown.

First Pacific Oil and Gas Ltd. Joint Venture

 

On May 24, 2011, the Company entered into a Farm-Out Agreement with First Pacific Oil and Gas Ltd. (“First Pacific”). Under this Agreement First Pacific has acquired the right to earn 50% of the Company’s working interest in its existing 12 hydrocarbon wells located in Southern Arkansas. Under this Agreement First Pacific has paid the Company $250,000; and will pay $800,000 on or before September 30, 2013. The Company retains a 50% working interest. First Pacific will earn its working interest upon improvements of the existing hydrocarbon wells being completed with the final $800,000 investment.

On September 12, 2013, the Company returned the balance of the trust funds held on behalf of First Pacific as First Pacific informed the Company that it will not be completing the $800,000 financing. Consequently, the Company returned the $232,500 held by its lawyers to First Pacific, and wrote down the $250,000 Deferred Gain. This resulted in a net gain of $17,500 on the sale of its oil leases. In addition, the Company paid the operator an additional $11,729 for disposal fees related to the lease; total cash paid as a result of the sale is $244,229.

NOTE 9. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

 

The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 410—Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations. Under these standards, the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. If a reasonable estimate of fair value cannot be made in the period the asset retirement obligation is incurred, the liability is recognized when a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. If a tangible long-lived asset with an existing asset retirement obligation is acquired, a liability for that obligation shall be recognized at the asset's acquisition date as if that obligation were incurred on that date. In addition, a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation is recorded if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated.

 

During 2013 due to the sale of the Company’s Arklatex mineral leases and oil well, the asset retirement obligation was reduced to $Nil.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), 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 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 using the criteria established in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").

 

 
38

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.

 

1)

We do not have an Audit Committee – While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over the Company’s financial statement. Currently the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee, and does not include a member that is considered to be independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over management’s activities.

 

2)

We did not maintain appropriate cash controls – As of December 31, 2014, the Company has not maintained sufficient internal controls over financial reporting for the cash process, including failure to segregate cash handling and accounting functions, and did not require dual signature on the Company’s bank accounts. Alternatively, the effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that the Company had limited transactions in their bank accounts.

   

3)

We did not implement appropriate information technology controls – As of December 31, 2014, the Company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.

 

Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.

 

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation we conducted of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

(1)

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on April 1, 2015.
