PEPTIDE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Peptide Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “Peptide”), was incorporated in the State
of Nevada, United States of America, on November 18, 2005.
The Company’s business is to develop and market
proprietary skincare products which will be sold online. The majority of manufacturing, distribution, marketing, and
sales operations will be outsourced , however, strategic planning and development will be performed internally by the
Company.
NOTE 2 –
BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company
prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating
results for the three months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending March 31, 2020. Notes to the unaudited interim financial statements that would substantially duplicate
the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2019 have been omitted. This
report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2019 included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
NOTE 3 –
GOING CONCERN
These
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred
losses from operations and had an accumulated deficit of $1,306,030 as of June 30, 2019. The Company also has excess
liabilities over assets of $401,954. These factors raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern.
6
Management’s
plans are to actively seek capital to enable the Company to add new products and/or services to ultimately achieve
profitability. However, management cannot provide assurance that they can raise sufficient capital and whether the
Company will ultimately achieve profitability, become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity
capital. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the near future or meet financing requirements,
management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, seek additional capital on less favorable terms,
and/or pursue other remedial measures.
These
financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company become unable to continue as a
going concern.
NOTE 4 –SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
Revenue will be recognized on a gross basis upon shipment or upon receipt of products by the
customer, depending on the agreed-upon terms, provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance;
persuasive evidence of an agreement exists documenting the specific terms of the transaction; the sales price is fixed
or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. Management will assess the business environment, the
customer’s financial condition, historical collection experience, accounts receivable aging, and customer disputes to
determine whether collectability is reasonably assured. If collectability is not considered reasonably assured at the
time of sale, the Company does not recognize revenue until collection occurs. The Company plans to begin recognizing
revenue by the second quarter of this fiscal year.
Website
Expenditures
related to the planning and operation of the Company’s website are expensed as incurred. Expenditures related to the
website application and infrastructure development are capitalized and depreciated over the website’s estimated useful
life of three (3) years. Amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $1,429 and $1,330,
respectively.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
The Financial
Accounting Standards Board issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) to amend the authoritative literature in the
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of the
ASC. The Company believes those updates issued-to-date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical
corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company, or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the
Company.
NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company’s former Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) advanced $2 and $312 to the Company during the
three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, to pay for operating expenses. The advances are due on demand
and carry no interest. The related party advances totaled $130,992 and $130,990 as of June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019,
respectively. Concerning the related party advances the Company will begin to accrue interest at 10% per annum beginning
July 1, 2019.
NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE
During the year ended March 31, 2019, Black Star Holdings Ltd., a shareholder of the Company, was
issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $70,000. The note is unsecured and bears interest at 10 percent,
per annum. Repayment of this note is due no later than February 19, 2021. On April 15, 2019, Black Star Holdings Ltd.

unsecured and bears interest at 10 percent, per annum. Repayment of the note is due no later than April 15, 2021.
Interest expense was $3,127 during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND
CONTINGENCIES
The Company is
not currently involved with and does not have knowledge of any pending or threatened litigation against the Company or
any of its officers.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In this
Quarterly Report, “Company,” “our company,” “us,” and “our” refer to Peptide Technologies, Inc., unless the context
requires otherwise.
Forward-Looking Statements
The following
information contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the
happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use
of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “predict,”
“probable,” “possible,” “should,” “continue,” or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those
terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the
basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results,
however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those
forward-looking statements.
Business of Issuer
The business of Peptide Technologies, Inc., (the
“Company” or “Peptide”), is to develop and market skincare products. The Company does business as Eternelle Skincare
Products. Peptides, and the use of collagen, are the latest innovation in skincare as science has proven
that the use of both peptides and collagen can help manage wrinkles in skin and reverse the signs of aging.
Using proprietary peptide/collagen blends, the Company is developing a number of skincare products that demonstrate
strong efficacy in providing youthful, healthy skin and significant anti-aging benefits to both women and men.
Our skincare products will address various skincare
needs. These products include moisturizers and serums for the face and around the eyes.
1.

uneven skin tone that addresses regulating the production of melanin. This potent hydroquinone-free formula prevents and
corrects skin discoloration caused by UV damage and daily environmental stressors, post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation
and melasma. Uniquely created with a blend of potent skin lighteners and brighteners including Arbutin, Licorice,
Azelaic Acid, and multiple forms of Vitamin C to inhibit and regulate melanin formation to normalize and correct pigment
production while evening out skin tone and encouraging collagen synthesis.
|
2.
|
Volumizing Antioxidant Serum Vitamin C+ Collagen Booster

Vitamin C antioxidant hydra-serum created to resist and restore damage from aging, sun, stress and environmental
exposure. It neutralizes free radicals in the skin and prevents the breakdown of collagen. It provides the highest
clinically-tested percentage of stable Vitamin C, Ferulic Acid, Emblica, Vitamin E and Vitamin B5 to deliver the

Peptide Eye Restore Serum Micro Circulation Booster

targeted light-weight eye treatment that hydrates and soothes the delicate eye area for diminishing the look of dark
circles, puffiness, fatigue and fine lines and contains proven multi-functioning peptides to effectively treat these
symptoms.
|
5.
|
Peptide Eye Repair Complex Cellular Collagen Youth Serum
- The second step
in a highly concentrated peptide-based eye complex that effectively combats the signs & symptoms of chronological
aging while deeply hydrating and nourishing the delicate eye area. Our proprietary combination of peptides effectively
works to repair cellular communication and boost the synthesis of Collagen I, III, & IV for a visible reduction in
the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around crow’s feet.
|
Our Company has developed its proprietary skincare formulations, and we will use internationally
recognized experts in the manufacturing of specialized, professional quality products that meet the demands of day and
resort spa, medical spa, and eco spa markets.
The Company has identified a cosmetic and skincare
manufacturer and has agreed upon product formulations, the design and sourcing of packaging, and product costs. The
Company does not intend to enter into a long-term master supply agreement with the manufacturer. Rather, orders will be
placed through individual purchase orders as needed. With profound knowledge and expertise in cosmetic chemistry and
professional skincare, this manufacturer has established itself as a leader in cutting edge formulations and product
innovation in the field of skincare.
This manufacturer offers custom product formulation
and manufacturing, allowing our Company to develop proprietary blends in order to privately brand our collection.
This supplier manufactures
products in accordance with Good Manufacturing Procedures (GMP). It also follows the recommendations of the United
States Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada and also adheres to the Quality Assurance Guidelines of the
Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association. These guidelines enable us to guarantee the consistency and quality of
our products from batch to batch. The manufacturer performs toxicity, microbiological, temperature, and stability tests
on all formulations. They do not test on animals, and they select all botanicals for freshness, purity of source,
quality, and potency. Every product will be researched and tested by the supplier’s manufacturing team before it is
approved for sale.
Our plan is to build a
state-of-the-art online store with a direct marketing and sales funnel aimed at targeted channels, using internet,
social media, and content marketing. The Company’s marketing approach uses vetted channels that encompass several steps
to gauge performance data from marketing tests against other campaigns in real-time with the ability to modify content
delivery to targeted consumers immediately. The Company will engage a team with proprietary algorithmic software to
assist in making these marketing decisions. Management believes this will provide the Company a distinct advantage over
other companies that outsource marketing and advertising efforts to third parties.
The skincare space is
well-suited for direct-to-consumer sales, and there are several channels that the Company will leverage to introduce its
unique branding and creative advertising assets. Creating brand visibility, along with the back-end support to process
orders, is one of the Company’s key strengths over smaller competitors in the space. In addition, the Company will
create a brand that allows visibility and awareness to be molded organically, thereby increasing the brand’s value
quickly.
This includes, but is
not limited to, developing our catalog of products, developing proprietary skincare formulations, pricing our products,
deciding which markets to target, deciding which influencers to engage in marketing campaigns, developing sales channels
such as our e-commerce sites, determining which marketing initiatives to pursue, and selecting strategic partners and
suppliers to advance our business plan.
We expect to launch our
products and begin recognizing revenue by the second quarter of this fiscal year.
Financial
Results and Trends
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
At present, the Company has no revenue. Net loss increased from $18,573 for the three months ended
June 30, 2018 to $32,269 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 due to higher interest and sales and marketing
expenses.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The Company
requires significant cash to launch its business and reduce its payables. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity and
capital resources have been notes payable, which are not sufficient prospectively. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We are actively seeking to raise additional debt
and/or equity capital to add new products and/or services to commence material operations. If the Company is unable to
raise additional capital in the near future or meet financing requirements, the Company may need to curtail or alter its
plan of operation.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain
disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports
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 (the “SEC”) rules and forms and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for
timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures
were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures would meet their objectives.
As required by
SEC Rule 13a-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer need to carry out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered
by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting. Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d(f) under the Exchange Act)
is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets, (b) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
GAAP, (c) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with appropriate
authorization of management and the Board of Directors, and (d) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Internal controls for Peptide Technologies Inc. were presented and accepted by the
Board as of February 23, 2019. In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10- Q
, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have not yet concluded that our internal controls and
procedures over financial reporting were effective as of June 30, 2019.
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of any
control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Limitations inherent in
any control system include the following:
|
●
|
Judgments in decision-making can be faulty,
and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Controls can be circumvented by
individuals, acting alone or in collusion with others, or by management override;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
The design of any system of controls is
based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any
design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions;
|
11
|
●
|
Over time, controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or
procedures; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
The design of a control system must reflect
the fact that resources are constrained, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their
costs.
|
Because of the
inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control
issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
