PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS  

Business Overview

We are a biotechnology company dedicated to improving food safety by applying the latest molecular technologies to eradicate “cross-over” (zoonotic) diseases such as Johne’s disease, Mad Cow Disease, Chronic Wasting Disease, and E.coli. Diseases of terrestrial, avian and aquatic life animals influence a number of economic and global security issues, including food for an increasing world population, access to international trade, species conservation and protection of those endangered, and economic growth in developing and re-organizing nations. Because many animal disease agents are zoonotic (transmissible between humans and animals, causing infection in both species), their management and prevention are crucial to improving public health on a global scale.  We focus on developing molecular diagnostic tests, therapeutics, and vaccines through robotic technology in the belief that better technologies and methodology need to be implemented to help control emerging diseases in animals and in humans.  We believe that, if not addressed, these diseases in animals will likely continue to cause serious and growing problems in terms of economics, human health and biodiversity.

We have developed proprietary diagnostic assays for use in the agricultural and veterinary markets. Specific assays for Chronic Wasting Disease (among elk and deer) and Mad Cow Disease (among cattle) have been developed and are available currently on a limited basis.  A Johne’s disease (predominantly dairy cattle) diagnostics is in development. We intend to shift from a research and development organization into a product marketing and revenue generating entity. Our previous strategy from inception in 2007 to July 2016 had been of research only. We focused all our energies, talent, and resources to the incubation and growth of new ideas in the realm of genetically engineered disease detection and vaccination. We feel that with recent announcements, we are positioned to move from a developmental stage to a product oriented stage company, depending on reliable funding.

We provide genetics-based diagnostics through robotic technology and are currently working on vaccine solutions to meet the growing demands of today’s veterinary industry and tomorrow’s healthcare industries. We are organized and operated both to continually apply our scientific research to more effective management of diseases and, in so doing, realize the commercial potential of molecular biotechnology.

We believe that we will require significant additional funding in order to achieve our business plan.  Over the next 12 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we will require at least $45,000,000 in additional funding.  There are no guarantees that we will be able to secure such financing, and if the financing is secured, there are no guarantees whether we can fully achieve the goals laid out in our business plan.

Our office is located at 6860 Broadway in Denver, CO 80221 and our telephone number is 303-955-0190.

About Johne’s Disease (Paratuberculosis)

Our focus includes the diagnosis and treatment of Johne’s disease. Johne’s disease is a worldwide problem of domestic animals primarily including dairy cattle, sheep and goats.  A significant public health concern is associated with Johne’s disease, which results from an infection with bacteria called Mycobacterium paratuberculosis. This organism grows very slowly, causes a gradually worsening disease condition, and is highly resistant to the infected animal’s immune defenses. Therefore, infected animals harbor the organism for years before they test positive or develop disease signs.

Major factors related to Johne’s disease include:

Worldwide Infection 

Reduction in milk production to 25%+ 

High culling rate which increases costs 

Affects trade and hinders exports 

Link between Johne’s disease and Crohn’s disease 

Reduction in quality wool production in sheep 

Highest at risk animals are young calves or pre-born 

Bacterium can survive in contaminated soil for over 1 year 

Spread in herds can occur by fecal contamination, colostrum, milk, and trans placental 

Calves can become infected by suckling on “dirty” teats 

For every one “clinical stage” in a herd there are 15-20 silently infected plus additional 6-8 carriers 


3



Stage I : Silent, subclinical, non-detectable infection. Typically, this stage occurs in all calves, heifers, and young stock less than two years of age and many adult animals exposed to small doses of disease-causing organisms. Infected animals at this early stage are rarely detected with currently available diagnostic tests, including fecal culture or serologic tests (ELISA). This stage progresses slowly over many months or years to stage II.

Stage II : Subclinical infection. Typically, this stage occurs in older heifers or adults. Animals at this stage appear healthy but are shedding adequate numbers of Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis organisms in their manure to be detected on fecal culture. Blood tests will detect some, but not all animals at this stage. Blood test (ELISA) positive animals should be confirmed positive by fecal culture.

Stage III : Clinical Johne’s disease. It is categorized as any animal with advanced infection the onset which is often associated with a period of stress such as recent calving. Cattle at this stage have intermittent, watery pea-soup manure. Animals lose weight and gradually drop in milk production, but continue to have a good appetite. Some animals appear to recover but often relapse in the next stress period. Most of these animals are shedding billions of organisms and are positive on culture. Most are positive on serologic tests (ELISA & AGID). Clinical signs often last several weeks to months before the animals are sent to slaughter in a thin, emaciated condition.  In the final and terminal aspects of stage III of the fatal disease, animals become emaciated with fluid diarrhea and develop “bottle jaw.” The carcass may not pass meat inspection for human consumption in the later phases of stage III.

About Crohn’s Disease

Crohn’s disease (also known as Crohn-Leśniowski Disease, or “Charlotte Forditis” morbus Leśniowski-Crohn, granulomatous and regional enteritis) is an inflammatory disease of the intestines that may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from anus to mouth, causing a wide variety of symptoms. It primarily causes abdominal pain, diarrhea (which may be bloody), vomiting, or weight loss, but may also cause complications outside of the gastrointestinal tract such as skin rashes, arthritis, and inflammation of the eye.

Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune disease, in which the body’s immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract, causing inflammation.  It is classified as a type of inflammatory bowel disease. There has been evidence of a genetic link to Crohn’s disease, putting individuals with siblings afflicted with the disease at higher risk. It is understood to have a large environmental component as evidenced by the higher number of cases in western industrialized nations. Males and females are equally affected. Smokers are three times more likely to develop Crohn’s disease than non-smokers. Crohn’s disease affects between 400,000 and 600,000 people in North America. Prevalence estimates for Northern Europe have ranged from 27–48 per 100,000. Crohn’s disease tends to present initially in the teens and twenties, with another peak incidence in the fifties to seventies; although, the disease can occur at any age.

Similar to Johne’s disease in cattle, no known pharmaceutical or surgical cure for Crohn’s disease currently exists for humans.  Furthermore, new discoveries of Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis have been found in human patients and we believe that individuals that are genetically predisposed could possibly be contracting the disease through digestion of Johne’s disease - infected milk.

Business Model

We have developed proprietary diagnostic assays through robotic technology for use in the agricultural and veterinary markets. Specific assays for Chronic Wasting Disease (among elk and deer) and Mad Cow Disease (among cattle) have been developed and are available currently on a limited basis. A paratuberculosis molecular robotic assay diagnostics is currently in development. As discussed above, we intend to shift from a research and development organization into a product marketing and revenue generating entity, depending on obtaining funding.  

Our animal disease assay development business is based on our Integrated Technology Platform that combines a proprietary diagnostic solution called Gene Expression System with PURIVAX, our system for analyzing large-scale recombinant DNA vaccine. The first part of this platform is the ongoing development of molecular diagnostic assays solutions via robotic technology while using real time Fluorogenic Polymerase Chain Reaction, or F-PCR, technology to detect the presence of infectious disease from the blood of live animals.  The second part of the Integrated Technology Platform is the development of therapeutic vaccines using RNA interference technology.  Interference RNA technology is a new technique that is based on the use of short RNA sequences complementary to a specific target gene. Once the RNA sequence binds to the gene, the gene is deactivated or “silenced” and no longer able to produce the specific protein. It also allows for the efficient, effective, and continuous testing, management and treatment of animal populations.  These facts distinguish the technology from any alternative testing and management methodology available to agriculture today -- all of which require the destruction of


4



individual animals and even entire herds.  Our testing and data analysis processes also allow us not only to separate infected from clean animals, but also to gain knowledge vital to development of preventative vaccines.

Each individual assay utilizes the proprietary Field Collection System for the collection and transportation of blood samples to our laboratory.  This system consists of two (2) tubes. A 5 milliliter (ml) red cap tube containing 1ml anticoagulant solution and a 10 ml white cap tube. One (1) ml of blood is collected from the animal and added to the red cap tube.  Ten (10ml) of milk is collected into the white cap tube. The Field Collection System allows us to maintain the integrity of each sample by the addition of specific reagents to test tubes contained in the system.  Our Field Collection System is designed to be an easy-to-use method of gathering blood samples from harvested or domesticated animals.  It ensures consistency of samples as well as increased assurance of each sample’s integrity.

To date, we have successfully developed the ability to detect Chronic Wasting Disease, a disease affecting elk and deer in North America.  The release of commercialized Field Collection Systems and laboratory diagnostic testing occurred in October of 2003 as a marketing trial.  We have also successfully developed an assay for the detection of Mad Cow Disease, a disease recently found in the United States, but which has been in Europe for many years.  The Field Collection Systems are available for purchase from us.  Chronic Wasting Disease and Mad Cow Disease are both in the family of diseases called Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy.  Johne’s disease is in the final stages of development.

We will need the approval of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or USDA, before the vaccines can be manufactured or sold.  The approval process for animal vaccines is time-consuming and expensive. We anticipate that such approval, if it is obtained, may require more than $75 million and may require more than two years for each vaccine for which approval is sought.  Currently, we do not have the capital necessary to seek approval of any of our candidate vaccines, and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary for such approval on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all.  Failure to raise the necessary capital will likely cause us to curtail or cease operations.  In addition, even if we are successful in raising the capital necessary to seek approval of any vaccine, there are no assurances that such an approval will be granted, or if granted, whether we will be able to produce and sell such vaccines following such an approval in commercial quantities or to make a profit from such production and sales.

Integrated Technology Platform

Our Integrated Technology Platform is the foundation for “fast-track” recombinant DNA, or rDNA, vaccine development. We are currently working on the development of a recombinant DNA vaccine for Johne’s disease. Johne’s disease is a chronic debilitating infectious disease of ruminants, characterized by weight loss and, particularly in cattle, by profuse diarrhea. The causal agent is a bacterium, Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. Infected animals may show no sign of the disease until years after the initial infection.  Johne’s is a slow, progressive disease with worldwide distribution.

The vaccine development is in the “in vitro” or pre-clinical stage. Our Integrated Technology Platform combines the following technologies: (1) Gene Expression System; (2) viral DNA purification technology, or PURIVAX technology; and (3) genetically engineered recombinant Adenovirus, or rAD, and recombinant Adeno Associate Virus, or rAAV, systems (vectors). This integrated technology platform yields fast-track vaccine development. Leveraging our Integrated Technology Platform, we believe that we can develop a prototype vaccine within 18 months versus the current standard of 24 to 36 months.  We estimate that the cost to bring these vaccines to market is $7-10 million. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to bring a vaccine to market and if the capital is raised, that we will be able to comply with the government regulations involved in bringing such a product to market. The Gene Expression System utilizes robotics and is based on nucleic acid extraction in conjunction with F-PCR technology to develop gene expression assays. Using Gene Expression System assays, vaccine efficacy can be measured quickly because it will be unnecessary to wait for the antibody response to measure how well the vaccine is working.  F-PCR will allow effective quantification of the precise number of viral or bacterial genetic particles before, during and after vaccine injection(s). We anticipate that the more effective the vaccine is, the stronger the decrease of the infectious disease particles will be.

Gene Expression System

Our Gene Expression System is a proprietary assay development system. To date, the system has been used to develop our Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy and Johne’s disease molecular assay. Our Gene Expression System is a gene expression system to be used in our laboratory and will be marketed for commercial sale under the trade name HERDCHECK. The core of the Gene Expression System is F-PCR. We approach the technical problems related to the use of conventional polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, in molecular diagnostics via our modular unit concept. Specifically, the modular unit consists of an Automated Nucleic Acid Workstation and a Sequence Detection System that are integrated, allowing an


5



operator to perform the entire procedure of DNA extraction and F-PCR analysis within a closed computerized system.  This system results in minimal intervention and non-post-PCR manipulation.

F-PCR is a technology based on sequence specific hybridization between a nucleic acid target and a fluorogenic probe, a short sequence of DNA chemically treated to generate light at a specific wavelength, complementary to the target sequence. The probe consists of an oligonucleotide, a short synthetic DNA molecule, with two fluorescent molecules (a reporter and quencher dye) attached to both ends of the oligonucleotide.  Due to the unique design of the Fluorogenic probe, the activity of the Taq Polymerase enzyme allows direct detection of PCR products by the release of the fluorogenic reporter during PCR. The reporter and the quencher dye are linked at the end of the probe. When the probe is intact, the proximity of the reporter dye to the quencher dye results in a suppression of the reporter fluorescence. During PCR, if the target of interest is present, the probe specifically anneals between the forward and the reverse primer site.  The nuclease activity of the Taq DNA Polymerase cleaves the probe between the reporter and the quencher only if the region binds to the target.  If the probe is not bound then no cleavage occurs. After cleavage, the shortened probe dissociates from the target and the polymerization of the DNA strand continues. This process occurs in every cycle and does not interfere with the exponential accumulation of the product.  The cleavage of the oligonucleotide between the reporter and the quencher dye results in an increase of fluorescence of the reporter that is directly proportional to the amount of the product accumulated.  The specificity of this 5’ nuclease assay results from the requirement of sequence complementary between probe and template in order for cleavage to occur.  Thus, the fluorogenic signal is generated only if the target sequence of the probe is generated by PCR.  No signal is generated by non-specific amplification.

Specific laboratory equipment is needed for our Gene Expression System.  This involves some substantial initial costs to set up the laboratory operations. The use of F-PCR represents a great advantage over other available systems because of its greater sensitivity, speed, and accuracy.

The Automated Nucleic Acid Workstation is a highly flexible robotic system that extracts and purifies acids from a variety of complex samples, preparing them for F-PCR analysis. Data management system software includes a database to manage all run phases and record sample processing.

The Sequence Detection System detects the fluorescent signal generated by the cleavage of the reporter dye during each PCR cycle.  This process confers specificity without the need of post-PCR hybridization.  Most importantly, the Sequence Detection System offers the advantage of monitoring real-time increases in fluorescence during c processing.  Specifically, monitoring real-time progress of the PCR completely changes the approach to PCR-based quantitation of DNA and RNA, most particularly, in improving the precision in both detection and quantitation of DNA and RNA targets.

We believe that we currently face limited competition in the use of F-PCR technology and the modular unit concept for commercial testing of either infectious disease in animals or food pathogen contamination.  Currently, most labs utilize conventional microbiology, immunological or conventional PCR methods for either veterinary diseases or food pathogen contamination detection.  Specific to microbiology and immunological techniques, the drawbacks of these approaches are:

1. The antibodies-based culture media used to detect the presence of infectious diseases has a low level of sensitivity; and 

2. High background due to non-specific binding of antibodies and/or culture contamination; sample preparation and storage creates artifacts; and long, cumbersome protocols necessary to perform these tests.

A major technical limitation of conventional PCR is the risk of contaminating a specimen with the products of previously amplified sequences.  Known as cross-contamination, this phenomenon represents a constant challenge to any lab using conventional PCR. Managing these challenges is cumbersome and difficult to streamline. F-PCR attempts to overcome these drawbacks by making it possible for PCR to efficiently test large numbers of samples even when major laboratory facilities are not readily available.  A novel methodology, F-PCR allows quantitative and qualitative detection of specific nucleic acid sequences in a sensitive, accurate, and rapid fashion.

PURIVAX Technology

We have developed a large-scale process for highly purified and high viral titer (viral concentration) Adenovirus and AAV genetically engineered viruses.  This technology enables us to develop Adenovirus and AAV-based recombinant DNA vaccines for zoonotic pathogens. Our PURIVAX is a purification system that dramatically improves biological purity and viral titer of recombinant Adenovirus and AAV vectors.  PURIVAX is intended to completely eliminate toxic side effects associated with Adenoviruses and AAV vectors, thereby making it possible to develop highly immunogenic and safe


6



recombinant DNA vaccines. Importantly, rDNA vaccine technology represents a powerful tool for an innovative vaccine design process known as “genetic immunization.”

rAD and rAAV vectors are the ideal candidates for a gene delivery system.  These viruses can efficiently deliver genetic material to both dividing and non-dividing cells, thereby overcoming some of the obstacles encountered with first generation retroviral vectors.

Equally important, rAD and rAAV are engineered virus genomes that contain no viral gene.  One of the key features for rAD and rAAV is their ability to infect a large variety of cells.  However, two technical challenges had to be overcome to fully utilize rAD and rAAV in the development of rDNA vaccines:

1. Lack of large scale purification system; and 

2. Low viral titer. 

Traditional technologies and first generation chromatography processes are limited both in terms of purity and yield.  Due to the limitation of these purification technologies, adequate viral titers may not be achieved.  We believe that the result is that there is currently no efficient system to deliver immunogenic genetic sequences into cells.

This is the significance of our PURIVAX, rAD and rAAV system for rDNA vaccine development.  Succinctly stated, it is designed to be able to achieve both high purity and high viral titer (up to 10e16 viral particles/eulate) based on its propriety multi-resin anion exchange chromatography system. We believe that biological contaminants such as endogenous retrovirus, bacterial, mycoplasma, non-specific nucleic acids, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and endotoxins are eliminated during the purification process.

Product Development

We provide a comprehensive Johne’s solution that allows diagnosing, treating and managing herds at risk or already infected with Johne’s disease.

Our proprietary Integrated Product Development Platform is design to prevent the spread of Johne’s disease to healthy animals and at the same time allow to better control the disease in those herds where the disease is already present.

More importantly, we believe that our platform can prevent the spread of the Mycobacterium into the food chain. An important part of this strategy is our ability to detect the presence of a low number of infected particles in milk tested for the presence of the Mycobacterium Paratuberculosis. Therefore, our platform not only is able to detect Johne’s infected animals, but can also prevent potential human infections.

Herd Guard is our comprehensive Johne’s management solution that includes a diagnostic (HerdCheck), a therapeutic (HerdSafe), and a management system (HerdSoft) to eradicate or mitigate Johne’s disease.

HerdCheck (Molecular Test)

HerdCheck is our diagnostic product. Samples are collected using a Field Collection System with includes specific collection tubes and ship to our laboratory for processing. The testing system is a high throughput and highly defined and structured testing system that is capable of more than 20,000 tests per month.  The systems uses proprietary real time PCR technology.

We have developed a molecular system for the detection of Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis in milk of infected dairy cows. Samples from milk obtaining from supermarket shelves were either “spiked’ with different concentrations of Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis or ‘naturally processed. The bacterial DNA was isolated using both, manual and robotic- based DNA extraction procedures and analyzed using the real time PCR technology. Using this methodology, we can detect between two (2) and twenty (20) bacterial particles from 10 ml of milk. We believe that our test will be very useful for early detection of Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis both in milk samples and infected cows.

We are currently evaluating several robotic systems for DNA extraction. We believe that we can further increase the sensitivity of the molecular assay by using robotic driven DNA extraction methods.

HerdSafe (Genetic Therapy)

HerdSafe is our therapeutic product. HerdSafe is the large-scale purification and recombinant based DNA vaccine using Adenovirus and AVV genetically engineered viruses.


7



We are currently developing a vaccine for Johne’s disease. Our approach for developing this vaccine is based on the use of PURIVAX technology, genetically engineered Adenoviral and AVV, and silencing RNA technology. To date, we have modified the Adenovirus by inserting a gene of the Mycobacteriun Avium Paratuberculosis bacterium responsible for triggering the infection in blood cell.

However, at the present time, we do not have sufficient financial resources to implement further development work; therefore, we will need to secure substantial funding to continue the development of the Johne’s vaccine.

HerdSoft (Software Management)

HerdSoft is our comprehensive Johne’s disease management solution which is a web-based product connected to our data center. The management system will deliver results, collect data and incorporate environmental analysis to guide the client on therapy and management of their herd to control Johne’s disease in their facility.

To date, we have developed a prototype computer program to track samples that will be received and processed in our commercial laboratory. This program will initially be used to track samples that will be sent out and received to our laboratory. We had to stop our timeline waiting for secured funding. We will then work on improving the system in order to track samples during the different phases of DNA extraction procedures. In addition, we will continue to develop a data base system to store and analyze data collected during sample analysis.

Future Development Plans

We anticipate that research and development, or R&D, will be the source for both assay development and vaccine design/development. If we are able to develop assays for different diseases, we intend to formalize the procedure into a commercial application through a series of laboratories to be owned and operated by us.  To date, we have introduced our diagnostic solution for Chronic Wasting Mad Cow Disease on a very limited basis.  We anticipate that R&D will be ongoing during the life of the Company, as this is the source for new products to be introduced to the market.  Our plan is to seek new innovations in the biotechnology field. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in developing or validating any new assays or, if we are successful in developing and validating any such assays, that we can successfully commercialize them or earn profits from sales of those assays.  Furthermore, we cannot assure you that we will be able to design, develop, or successfully commercialize any vaccines as a result of our research and development efforts.  

It is our intention to continue with the research and development and validation of the molecular tests and DNA vaccines.  Future plans include initiating validation procedures for Johne’s disease molecular test. These validation protocols will be performed in our laboratory in Colorado.

In parallel, we will continue R&D phases for the Johne’s disease vaccine. We plan initiating an experimental animal protocol to determine the safety of our vaccines. We estimate that the experimental animal protocol may take up to a year. We project to initiate the experimental animal’s studies within 18-36 months.

Research and Development

We anticipate that R&D will be the source for both assay development and vaccine design/development.  If we are able to develop assays for different diseases, we intend to formalize the procedure into a commercial application through a series of laboratories to be owned and operated by us.  To date, we have introduced our diagnostic solution for Chronic Wasting Disease and Mad Cow Disease on a very limited basis.  We anticipate that R&D will be ongoing during the life of the Company, as this is the source for new products to be introduced to the market.  Our plan is to seek new innovations in the biotechnology field.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in developing or validating any new assays or, if we are successful in developing and validating any such assays, that we can successfully commercialize them or earn profits from sales of those assays.  Furthermore, we cannot assure you that we will be able to design, develop, or successfully commercialize any vaccines as a result of our research and development efforts.

Marketing Strategy

Our goal is to focus on international markets, primarily the Pacific Rim and Europe, for the commercialization of our animal testing platform. We have no plans to offer any veterinary services in the United States.

Our marketing approach is to align ourselves with both, the private sector and government agencies.


8



Commercial Diagnostic Testing

In the event that we are able to develop assays for the detection of diseases in animals, we intend to establish a series of diagnostic testing laboratories geographically proximate to the primary sources of individual diseases and/or according to specific available operating efficiencies.  The specific number of labs to be built and operated will be based on assay demand (demand facilitated by the number of specific disease assays we develop), our ability to obtain the capital to build the labs, and our ability to successfully manage them from our principal office.  We are in negotiations to establish one diagnostic testing laboratory outside of our Colorado facility.

Licensing

Through our licensing division, we intend to manage the marketing and sale of the vaccines developed by our R&D. As we do not intend to be a vaccine manufacturer, we plan to use our licensing division to license the technology related to any vaccines that may be developed and to manage the revenue potential available from the successful development and validation of specific vaccines.  We cannot provide any assurance that we will develop any vaccines or that, if they are developed, we will be able to license them successfully or that any such license will produce significant revenues.

Intellectual Property

We do not own any patents on any of our technology and have not filed any applications for patents in any country.  We cannot give any assurance that we will be able to file any patent applications or that, if we file one or more applications for patents, any patents will issue or that, if issued, the claims granted in any such patents will afford us adequate protection against competitors with similar technology.

We believe that we own common law proprietary rights with respect to our technology and intend to use our best efforts to protect such rights through confidentiality agreements.

We also depend upon the skills, knowledge, and experience of our scientific and technical personnel, none of which is patentable.  To help protect our proprietary know-how, which is not patentable, and for inventions for which patents may be difficult to endorse, we rely on trade secret protection to shield our interests.

Competition

We face competition from many companies, universities, and research institutions in the United States and abroad.  Virtually all of our competitors have substantially greater resources, experience in product commercialization, and obtaining regulatory approvals for their products, operating experience, research and development, marketing capabilities, and manufacturing capabilities that we do.  We will face competition from companies marketing existing products or developing new products for diseases targeted by our technologies.  The development of new products for those diseases for which we are attempting to develop products could render our product candidates noncompetitive and obsolete.  

Our current competitors include primarily, IDEXX Laboratories, Inc., and academic and government institutions are also carrying out a significant amount of research in the field of veterinary health, particularly in the field of Johne’s disease.  We anticipate that these institutions will become more aggressive in pursuing patent protection and negotiating licensing arrangements to collect royalties for use of technology that they have developed and to market commercial products similar to those that we seek to develop, either on their own or in collaboration with competitors.  Any resulting increase in the cost or decrease in the availability of technology or product candidates from these institutions may affect our business.

Competition with respect to our veterinary technologies and potential products is and will be based, among other things, on effectiveness, safety, reliability, availability, price, and patent protection.  Another important factor will be the timing of market introduction of products that we may develop and for which we may receive regulatory approval. Accordingly, the speed with which we can develop products, complete the required animal studies or trials and approval processes and ultimately supply commercial quantities of the products to the market is expected to be an important competitive factor. Our competitive position will also depend upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, to obtain patent protection or otherwise develop propriety products or processes, and to secure sufficient capital resources for the often-substantial period between technological conception and commercial sales.

Several attempts have been made to develop technologies that compete with F-PCR.  To our knowledge none of these technologies have resulted to date in any product available on the market.  The field of biotechnology is very dynamic.  The possibility that more advanced technologies could be developed into products that may compete with ours is very strong.  However, it is very difficult to predict the length of time necessary for this scenario to take place.


9



Manufacturing

We do not manufacture any products. We do not intend to establish a manufacturing facility to manufacture any products that we may develop anywhere in the world. 

Product Liability

The testing, manufacturing, and marketing of our proposed products involves an inherent risk of product liability attributable to unwanted and potentially serious health effects in animals that may receive any vaccines that we may develop and market.  To the extent we elect to test, manufacture, or market veterinary vaccines and other products, we will bear the risk of product liability directly.  We do not currently have product liability insurance.  There is no guarantee that we can obtain product liability insurance at a reasonable cost, or at all, or that the amount of such insurance will be adequate to cover any liability that we may be exposed to.  In the absence of such insurance, one or more product liability lawsuits against us can be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business and could result in our ceasing operations.

Government Regulation

Our unique approach to the testing for various animal diseases allows us to begin commercialization of our diagnostic tests without the need for a long and enduring approval process from the USDA. USDA approval will be required for commercialization of animal vaccines.  However, it is our intention not to seek, in the foreseeable future, any approval either from the USDA or the U.S. Food & Drug Administration for any of the products we develop both, diagnostic or therapeutic. It is our intention to perform any validation or clinical trials of our product abroad and primarily in Europe and Pacific Rim where our commercial operation will also be located. Our commercial laboratories will require a validation study to be performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system. Validation studies will be performed according to each country’s guidelines. We have submitted an application outlining a protocol for animal studies. It is expected that validation studies will be conducted in collaboration with each country’s government guidelines over the next 18-36 month period.

Employees

As of December 31, 2017, we had a total of two full-time employees who devoted substantial effort on our behalf.  None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining unit.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS  

Investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of the following risks, together with all other information set forth in this report, including the financial statements and the related notes, before making a decision to buy our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have a history of operating losses.

We have generated no revenues to date from our operations. Historically, we have had net operating losses each year since our inception. Additionally, even if we are able to commercialize our technology or any products, it is not certain that will result in revenues or profitability.

We have a limited operating history on which investors may evaluate our operation and prospects for profitable operations.

If we continue to suffer losses, as we have in the past, investors may not receive any return on their investments. Our prospects must be consider speculative in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. A substantial risk is involved in investing in the Company because we have fewer resources than established companies.

There is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have had negligible revenues since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $26,571,461 and negative working capital of $7,225,628 as of December 31, 2017. Because of these circumstances, we will require additional working capital to develop business operations. There is no assurance that we will reach a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the foreseeable future.  Additionally, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional


10



financing necessary to support our operating expense requirements. If financing is available, it may involve issuing securities senior to our common stock.  In addition, in the event we do not raise additional capital from conventional sources, such as our existing investors or commercial banks, there is a likelihood that our growth will be restricted and we may be forced to curtail or cease the implementation of our business plan.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on recoverability and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

If we fail to attract significant additional capital, we may be unable to continue developing our products.

From the beginning of our operation, we have obtained limited funding to implement our business strategy. We believe that we will require significant additional funding in order to achieve our business plan.  Over the next 12 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we will require at least $45,000,000 in additional funding.  There are no guarantees that we will be able to secure such financing, and if the financing is secured, there are no guarantees whether we can fully achieve the goals laid out in our business plan. In addition, in the event we do not raise additional capital from conventional sources, such as our existing investors or commercial banks, there is a likelihood that our growth will be restricted and we may be forced to curtail or cease the implementation of our business plan.

We may not be able to raise the required capital to conduct our operations and develop and commercialize our products.

We require substantial additional resources in order to conduct our operations and develop and commercialize our products and run our facilities. We will need significant additional funds or a collaborative partner, or both, finance research and development activities of our potential products. Accordingly, we are continuing to pursue additional sources of financing. Additional financing through strategic collaborations, public or private equity financing sources may not be available on accepted terms. Additionally, equity financing could result in significant dilution to our stockholders. Further, if additional funds are obtained through arrangements with collaborative partners, these arrangements may require us to relinquish rights to some of our technologies, or products that we would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize on our own. If sufficient capital is not available, we may be required to cease operations or at a minimum delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our programs or potential products – either of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or business prospect.

We may be unable to compete against other more establish biotech of pharmaceutical companies.

We operate in a very competitive and difficult area. Biotechnology business is notoriously challenging and risky. We compete with other more established and better funded companies in the United States and overseas that are involved in the development of similar products. Several of these companies have significantly greater financial resources as well as greater production and marketing capabilities. The field of biotechnology requires extensive research and development.  Better funded competitors may be able to develop and market superior or less expensive products which will make our products less valuable or unmarketable.

We depend on new and rapidly evolving technologies.

We are engaged in activities in the biotechnology field, which is characterized by extensive research effort and rapid technological progress. If we fail to anticipate or respond adequately to technological developments, our ability to operate profitably could suffer. We cannot assure that research and discoveries by other biotechnology, agriculture, pharmaceutical or other companies will not render our technologies or products uneconomical or result in products superior to those we develop, depend on new and evolving technologies. If these technologies do not produce satisfactory results, our business may be harmed.

Rapid growth may place significant demands on our resources.

We expect noteworthy expansion of our operations, funding permitting, moving forward. Our anticipated future growth will place a substantial demand on our managerial, operational and financial resources due to:

the need to manage relationships with various strategic partners and other third parties; 

difficulties in hiring and retaining skilled personnel necessary to support our business; 

the need to train and manage a growing employee base; and 

pressures for the continued development of our financial and information management systems. 


11



If we have not made adequate allowances for the costs and risks associated with this expansion or if our systems, procedures, or controls are not adequate to support our operations, our business could be harmed.

If a loss of key personnel will occur this event could adversely affect the Company.

We depend to a large part on the efforts and continued employment of Antonio Milici, M.D., Ph.D., our President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  The loss of Dr. Milici will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations (if any) and financial condition.  In addition, the loss of Dr. Milici may force us to seek a replacement who may have less experience, fewer contacts, or less understanding of the business.  Further, we may be unable to find a suitable replacement for Dr. Milici, which could force us to curtail our operations and/or cause any investment in the Company to become worthless.  We have an employment agreement with Dr. Milici, which ends on January 31, 2022.

If we fail to attract and retain additional highly skilled personnel, our operations will suffer.

Finding qualified personnel in the biotechnology industry is very challenging. Smaller biotechnology companies are always at a disadvantage because of its limited financial resources. We are in the process of hiring additional qualified scientific and engineering personnel in order to start escalating our scientific strength in R&D and commercial operations.

We will rely on third parties for sale, distribution and manufacturing.

We do not have any “in house” sale, distribution or manufacturing capabilities. The success of our operations will depend on the establishment and success of marketing relationships with sale, distribution and manufacturing entities.

Over the last year, we have narrowed our potential product development to focus on the molecular testing of Johne’s disease.

Due to the increase cost of R&D and the very challenging economic environment, we have decided to concentrate our efforts in the development of a commercial platform for the diagnostic of Johne’s disease. As a result, our success depends entirely on being able to commercialize our product. If we are unable to achieve this goal, our operations could greatly suffer and any investment in the Company could be lost.

Our technology is not protected by patents.

Our technology and know-how is not patented. We rely on trade secrets to protect our intellectual property. We cannot assure, however, that these trade secrets will provide meaningful protection for our intellectual property. Furthermore, in absence of patent protection, competitors who independently develop substantially equivalent technology may harm our business.  

We may not be able to comply with government regulations.

We are subject to or affected by laws and regulations that govern, for example, the vaccination of animals for certain diseases.  The failure to comply with these laws and regulations, or to obtain applicable governmental approvals, could result in the imposition of penalties, cause delays in, or make impossible, the marketing of our products and services.

We may not obtain foreign regulatory approval to market any of our products.

If we fail to obtain regulatory approval of any of our products, we will not be permitted to market our products and may be forced to cease operations.

We have limited government regulatory experience.

We have never successfully undertaken a clinical trial for animal testing. Our experience in this area is limited. We have never obtained regulatory approvals for any of our products.  As such, we may be unable to ever successfully undertake a clinical trial of our products, and may be forced to curtail or modify our current business plan.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to develop or maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results and prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial statements, which would harm the trading price of our common shares.

Companies that file reports with the SEC, including us, are subject to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX 404. SOX 404 requires management to establish and maintain a system of internal control over financial


12



reporting and annual reports on Form 10-K filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, to contain a report from management assessing the effectiveness of a company’s internal control over financial reporting. Separately, under SOX 404, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, public companies that are large accelerated filers or accelerated filers must include in their annual reports on Form 10-K an attestation report of their regular auditors attesting to and reporting on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting. Non-accelerated filers and smaller reporting companies, like us, are not required to include an attestation report of their auditors in annual reports.

A report of our management is included under “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.” We are a smaller reporting company and, consequently, are not required to include an attestation report of our auditor in our annual report. However, if and when we become subject to the auditor attestation requirements under SOX 404, we can provide no assurance that we will receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors.

During its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, management identified material weaknesses. These material weaknesses were associated with our lack of proper segregation of duties in certain areas of our financial reporting process. We are undertaking remedial measures, which measures will take time to implement and test, to address these material weaknesses. There can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to remedy the material weaknesses identified or that additional material weaknesses or other control or significant deficiencies will not be identified in the future. If we continue to experience material weaknesses in our internal controls or fail to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, such circumstances could cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements, or adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and, if required, annual auditor attestation reports. Each of the foregoing results could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and lead to a decline in our stock price.  

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

 Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “GTHR.” The OTC Pink Market is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Pink Market may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. We plan to list our common stock as soon as practicable. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of any stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain any such listing.

We cannot predict the extent to which an active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. If an active public trading market does not develop or cannot be sustained, you may be unable to liquidate your investment in our common stock.

At present, there is minimal public trading in our common stock. We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained due to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company that is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors, and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares of common stock until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that an active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. If such a market cannot be sustained, you may be unable to liquidate your investment in our common stock.

Our common stock may be subject to significant price volatility which may have an adverse effect on your ability to liquidate your investment in our common stock.

The market for our common stock may be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The potential volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, our shares of common stock may be sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our shares of common stock are sold on the market without commensurate


13



demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer that could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, an investment in us is a speculative or “risky” investment due to our lack of meaningful profits to date and uncertainty of future profits. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer.

We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is a “penny stock” and is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market, thus possibly making it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

We have never paid cash dividends on our stock and do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

We have paid no cash dividends on any class of our stock to date and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the near term. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board deems relevant.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and result of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains certain forward-looking information. See “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for certain information concerning those forward looking statements. Our financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.

Overview

We are a biotechnology company dedicated to improving food safety by applying the latest molecular technologies to eradicate “cross-over” (zoonotic) diseases such as Johne’s disease, Mad Cow Disease, Chronic Wasting Disease, and E.coli. We focus on developing molecular diagnostic tests, therapeutics, and vaccines through robotic technology in the belief that better technologies and methodology need to be implemented to help control emerging diseases in animals and in humans.  

We have developed proprietary diagnostic assays for use in the agricultural and veterinary markets. Specific assays for Chronic Wasting Disease (among elk and deer) and Mad Cow Disease (among cattle) have been developed and are available currently on a limited basis.  A Johne’s disease (predominantly dairy cattle) diagnostics is in development. We intend to shift from a research and development organization into a product marketing and revenue generating entity. Our previous strategy from inception in 2007 to July 2016 had been of research only. We focused all our energies, talent, and resources to the incubation and growth of new ideas in the realm of genetically engineered disease detection and vaccination. We feel that with recent announcements, we are positioned to move from a developmental stage to a product oriented stage company, depending on reliable funding.

We provide genetics-based diagnostics through robotic technology and are currently working on vaccine solutions to meet the growing demands of today’s veterinary industry and tomorrow’s healthcare industries. We are organized and operated both to continually apply our scientific research to more effective management of diseases and, in so doing, realize the commercial potential of molecular biotechnology.

We have not generated significant operating revenue as of December 31, 2017.  Our ability to generate substantial operating revenue will depend on our ability to develop and obtain approval for molecular assays and developing therapeutic vaccines for the detection and prevention of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases, and diseases affecting human health.

Going Concern

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe 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. We have had negligible revenues since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $26,571,461 and negative working capital of $7,225,628 as of December 31, 2017.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on recoverability and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

If we are unable to obtain additional working capital, our business may fail. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than operations. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flow from limited operations, augmented by cash proceeds from financing activities, short-term borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. We must raise cash to implement our projected plan of operations

Such decrease was primarily due to decreased rent, professional fees and insurance fees.    

Payroll expenses . Our total payroll expenses increased by $57,249 to $243,249 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $186,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 consisted of interest expense and a write off of vendor receivables of $39,310, while other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 consisted of interest expense in the amount of $55,705 and a loss on disposal of asset in the amount of $13,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $167,653. We have historically financed activities with cash from the private placement of equity and debt securities and advances from related parties.

Our current cash balance is not sufficient to fund our business objectives and we will need significant additional capital over the next 12-18 months in order to fund our planned operations.  Specifically, we intend to spend significant funds on validating and testing our products, seeking necessary regulatory approvals and focusing on international expansion.  Over the next 12 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we believe that we will require at least $40,000,000.  We will attempt to raise these funds by means of one or more private offerings of debt or equity securities or both.  We may not be able to secure the financing that we believe is necessary to implement our strategic objectives and, even if additional financing is secured, we may not achieve our strategic objectives.  As of the date of this report, we do not have any firm commitments from any investors for any additional funding.

Our longer-term working capital and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including revenue and profit generation, pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, the timing and cost of obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending, and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, competing technological and market developments, collaborative arrangements.  Additional capital will be required in order to attain such goals.  Such additional funds may not become available on acceptable terms and we cannot give any assurance that any additional funding that we do obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs in the long term.  

Failure to obtain capital to fund short-term and long-term needs will likely result in the curtailment of our operations or cessation of certain aspects of our business strategy.

Convertible Notes

During fiscal 2016, we borrowed money from investors and issued convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $108,500 due on demand and bearing interest at an annual rate of 8%.  The notes are convertible into shares our common stock at a conversion price of $0.01 to $0.05 per share. As December 31, 2017 and 2016, the outstanding principal and interest on these notes was $596,683 and $557,566, respectively.

Related Party Loans

From time to time, certain directors, officers and stockholders have made loans to the Company.  

As December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has outstanding loan payables to Antonio Milici, its Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and stockholder, in the amounts of $693,155 and $676,796, respectively. This loan is unsecured, due on demand, and bears interest at 2.41%.

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has outstanding loan payables to Tannya Irizarry, its Chief Administrative Officer and stockholder, in the amounts of $101,172 and $90,356, respectively. This loan is unsecured, due on demand, and bears interest at 8%.

Investment Agreement

In March 2018, we entered into a Milestones Investment Agreement with FOGT, LLC, pursuant to which FOGT, LLC has agreed to invest and purchase up to $5 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pending completion of certain milestones. To date, FOGT, LLC has invested $550,000 and we agreed to issue 5,500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. FOGT, LLC has agreed to invest additional amounts as follows: (i) $1,200,000 upon the Company effecting all filings with the SEC as required pursuant to the Exchange Act; (ii) $1,500,000 upon completion of design, assembly and validation of an advanced robotic system; and (iii) $1,750,000 upon entering into a commercial agreement with a government organization or private entity. We may be unable to satisfy these conditions negating any additional financing pursuant to this agreement.

Capital Expenditures

Our operations require capital expenditures primarily for lab equipment and software development.  Capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were $26,400 and $0, respectively. Capital expenditures for 2017 consisted of a vehicle purchase.

Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our management will closely monitor price changes in our industry and continually maintain effective cost control in operations.

Seasonality

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to significant seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

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 or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles GAAP requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a


23



result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Property and Equipment, Net . Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or lease terms.  

Impairment of Long-Lived Asset . We review the recoverability of long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

Stock-Based Compensation . Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation. The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. We account for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments . The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting standards Codification and created a new Topic 842, Leases  (the “New Lease Standard”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840,  Leases . The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. We have not finalized our assessment but believe this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.   The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for our operating lease which commenced in 2018.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES  

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures 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 rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,


24



including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of 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, 2017. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that, because of the material weaknesses described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that:

(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; 

(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and 

(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. In making this evaluation, management used the framework established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Based on our evaluation, we determined that, as of December 31, 2017, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the following material weaknesses.

Due to our small size, we do not have a proper segregation of duties in certain areas of our financial reporting process.  The areas where we have a lack of segregation of duties include cash receipts and disbursements, approval of purchases and approval of accounts payable invoices for payment. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  

In order to cure the foregoing material weakness, we will look to increase our personnel resources as funds become available.  Management believes that hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise will remedy the lack of segregation of duties weakness.

We intend to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses discussed above as soon as practicable but we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. Designing and implementing an effective disclosure controls and procedures is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to devote significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that adequately satisfies our reporting obligations. The remedial measures that we intend to take may not fully address the material weaknesses that we have identified, and material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures may be identified in the future. Should we discover such conditions, we intend to remediate them as soon as practicable. We are committed to taking appropriate steps for remediation, as needed.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.

AND SUBSIDIA RY

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2017 and 2016


F-2



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of GeneThera, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of GeneThera, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has significant accumulated deficits and intends to fund operations through new financing which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

To the shareholders and the board of directors of GeneThera, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of GeneThera, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2017, the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GeneTh era, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2017

 

 

Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

The consolidated financial statements include GeneThera, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GeneThera, Inc. (Colorado) (collectively, the “Company”).  The Company has a long standing research collaboration with GTI Research. GTI Research is assisting the Company in managing the robotic technology project. The Company’s CEO is also collaborating with this project in order for the Company’s research and development to finally become commercial in order to generate revenues.

The Company is a biotechnology company that develops molecular assays for the detection of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases and genetically modified organisms.

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 and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents  

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, it is a controlled subsidiary. Intercompany accounts are eliminated upon consolidation.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or lease terms.  

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

Revenue Recognition

There were no revenues during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 –  Compensation – Stock Compensation . The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based


F-9



awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 740 - Income Taxes . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are presented in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 –  Earnings per Share , and are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. As the Company is in a loss position, any calculation of the dilutive effects of the Company’s convertible securities would reduce the loss per share amount, and, as such, the Company will not perform the calculation. The weighted average potentially dilutive shares underlying the Company’s convertible securities excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as they would be anti-dilutive were 179,976,248 and 170,285,510 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Leases .   In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and created a new Topic 842,  Leases  (the “New Lease Standard”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840,  Leases . The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. The Company has not finalized its assessment but believes this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.   The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for the Company’s operating lease which commenced in 2018.

Note 2 – Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,571,461 and negative working capital of $7,225,628 as of December 31, 2017. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

On September 23, 2010, a judgement was issued against the Company in the case of Liberty Acquisitions v. the Company in the Jefferson County Court in the State of Colorado in the amount of $3,300. The Company has not satisfied the judgment.

Beginning in November 2010 and through July 2011, Gold X Change, Inc. (“GXC”) invested approximately $132,000 in the aggregate in the Company’s convertible notes. In July 2011, a dispute arose between the Company and GXC as to the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes.  In order to resolve this dispute, the Company and GXC agreed to issue a total of 24 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the name of GXC; provided that GXC deposit such shares into an escrow account with an escrow agent.  Under the terms of the escrow agreement, these shares would only be released to GXC if GXC invested a an additional $1 million into the Company within one year, which ended on September 30, 2012.  During the one year period, GXC only invested $880,162.  As a result of GXC’s failure to invest the full $1 million within the one year time period as required by the escrow agreement, GXC was in default under the escrow agreement and the 24 million shares were cancelled. The $880,162 paid by GXC to the Company was deemed to be the cost of the 1,189,300 shares of the Company’s common stock that was already held by GXC.

As per the Summons, the plaintiff claimed $364,968.69 in past due rent. As per our accounting records, the Company had $242,000 with the offer to purchase such property at $1,850,000 plus scheduled payments for the past due rent. The owner’s bank did not allow him to sell the property to the Company and/or anyone. We went to mediation. The owner’s legal team and our legal team settled for $115,000 with the contingency to pay the goodwill amount of $15,000 by September 12, 2015. We did. The Company has an additional six months to complete the remaining $100,000 settlement. If not paid off prior to August 12, 2016, there will be no discount and the Company shall owe the judgment balance in the amount of $325,885. The mediator, a retired judge, found in our favor. Therefore, the settlement was agreed upon by both parties. The Company did not pay the settlement agreement as of the due date and default interest at 18% is being accrued on the outstanding judgment balance.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent; eliminating the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax and changing how existing Alternative Minimum Tax credits can be realized; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; and changing limitations on the deductibility of certain executive compensation.

In December 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses situations where the accounting is incomplete for the income tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 directs taxpayers to consider the impact of the act as “provisional” when the Company does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) to finalize the accounting for the change in tax law. Companies are provided a measurement period of up to one year to obtain, prepare, and analyze information necessary to finalize the accounting for provisional amounts or amounts that cannot be estimated.

The Company remeasured its deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017, which resulted in an increase in deferred tax assets and corresponding valuation allowance increase of $1,765,769.

Note 10 – Subsequent Events

Voting . On any matter presented to stockholders for their action or consideration, each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter.

However, so long as at least 50% of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock originally issued remains outstanding, the Company may not, without the affirmative vote or the written consent of the holders of at least 51% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, (i) create, authorize or issue any equity security, or any security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security, unless such security is junior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in terms of dividend and liquidation preference; or (ii) increase the total number of authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. 

Conversion. Each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may, at holder’s option and at any time, convert any or all such shares into shares of common stock.

In addition, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of common stock, at the then applicable Conversion Rate, upon the earlier of (i) the closing of a public offering of equity or equity equivalent securities resulting in minimum gross proceeds to the Company of $20 million and (ii) upon the Company’s common stock trading at or above $6.00 per share for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days; provided that prior to the event specified by (ii) above, the Company shall have (y) an effective registration statement on file with the SEC registering the resale of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (ii) obtained the approval for listing the common stock on any national securities exchange.  The Conversion Rate is subject to customary adjustments as described in the Series A Certificate of Designation. 

Redemption. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is not redeemable.

Voting . On any matter presented to stockholders for their action or consideration, each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast 20 votes per share. Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Series B Certificate of Designation, the holders shall vote together with the holders of shares of common stock as a single class. However, so long as at least 50% of the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock originally issued remains outstanding, the Company may not, without the affirmative vote or the written consent of the holders of at least 51% of the then outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, (i) create, authorize or issue any equity security, or any security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security, unless such security is junior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, in terms of dividend and liquidation preference; or (ii) increase the total number of authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. 

Conversion. Each holder of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may, at holder’s option and at any time, convert any or all such shares into shares of common stock.

Redemption. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is not redeemable.  

Conversion of Convertible Notes

During 2018, the Company has received conversion notices on convertible notes totaling $68,460, plus accrued interest which will be converted into shares of the Company's common stock at conversion prices between $0.015 and $0.03.

GeneThera, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Consolid ated Financial Statements

September 30, 2017

 

 

Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

The consolidated financial statements include GeneThera, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GeneThera, Inc. (Colorado) (collectively, the “Company”).  The Company has a long standing research collaboration with GTI Research. GTI Research is assisting the Company in managing the robotic technology project. The Company’s CEO is also collaborating with this project in order for the Company’s research and development to finally become commercial in order to generate revenues.

The Company is a biotechnology company that develops molecular assays for the detection of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases and genetically modified organisms.

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 and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents  

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, it is a controlled subsidiary. Intercompany accounts are eliminated upon consolidation.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or lease terms.  

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

Revenue Recognition

There were no revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 –  Compensation – Stock Compensation . The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based


F-21



awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 740 - Income Taxes . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are presented in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 –  Earnings per Share , and are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. As the Company is in a loss position, any calculation of the dilutive effects of the Company’s convertible securities would reduce the loss per share amount, and, as such, the Company will not perform the calculation. The weighted average potentially dilutive shares underlying the Company’s convertible securities excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as they would be anti-dilutive were 179,450,939 and 170,285,510 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Leases .   In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and created a new Topic 842,  Leases  (the “New Lease Standard”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840,  Leases . The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. The Company has not finalized its assessment but believes this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.   The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for the Company’s operating lease which commenced in 2018.

Note 2 – Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,688,894 and negative working capital of $7,604,661 as of September 30, 2017. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 – Accrued Expenses

The following is the breakdown of the Company’s accrued expenses as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

F-24



of shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes.  In order to resolve this dispute, the Company and GXC agreed to issue a total of 24 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the name of GXC; provided that GXC deposit such shares into an escrow account with an escrow agent.  Under the terms of the escrow agreement, these shares would only be released to GXC if GXC invested a an additional $1 million into the Company within one year, which ended on September 30, 2012.  During the one year period, GXC only invested $880,162.  As a result of GXC’s failure to invest the full $1 million within the one year time period as required by the escrow agreement, GXC was in default under the escrow agreement and the 24 million shares were cancelled.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent; eliminating the corporate Alternative


F-25



Minimum Tax and changing how existing Alternative Minimum Tax credits can be realized; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; and changing limitations on the deductibility of certain executive compensation.

In December 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses situations where the accounting is incomplete for the income tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 directs taxpayers to consider the impact of the act as “provisional” when the Company does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) to finalize the accounting for the change in tax law. Companies are provided a measurement period of up to one year to obtain, prepare, and analyze information necessary to finalize the accounting for provisional amounts or amounts that cannot be estimated.

GeneThera, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited C onsolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017

 

 

Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

The consolidated financial statements include GeneThera, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GeneThera, Inc. (Colorado) (collectively, the “Company”).  The Company has a long standing research collaboration with GTI Research. GTI Research is assisting the Company in managing the robotic technology project. The Company’s CEO is also collaborating with this project in order for the Company’s research and development to finally become commercial in order to generate revenues.

The Company is a biotechnology company that develops molecular assays for the detection of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases and genetically modified organisms.

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 and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents  

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, it is a controlled subsidiary. Intercompany accounts are eliminated upon consolidation.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or lease terms.  

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

Revenue Recognition

There were no revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 –  Compensation – Stock Compensation . The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based


F-33



awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 740 - Income Taxes . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are presented in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 –  Earnings per Share , and are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. As the Company is in a loss position, any calculation of the dilutive effects of the Company’s convertible securities would reduce the loss per share amount, and, as such, the Company will not perform the calculation. The weighted average potentially dilutive shares underlying the Company’s convertible securities excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as they would be anti-dilutive were 178,391,674 and 170,285,510 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Leases .   In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and created a new Topic 842,  Leases  (the “New Lease Standard”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840,  Leases . The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. The Company has not finalized its assessment but believes this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.   The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for the Company’s operating lease which commenced in 2018.

Note 2 – Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,543,019 and negative working capital of $7,458,785 as of June 30, 2017. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 – Accrued Expenses

The following is the breakdown of the Company’s accrued expenses as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

F-36



of shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes.  In order to resolve this dispute, the Company and GXC agreed to issue a total of 24 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the name of GXC; provided that GXC deposit such shares into an escrow account with an escrow agent.  Under the terms of the escrow agreement, these shares would only be released to GXC if GXC invested a an additional $1 million into the Company within one year, which ended on September 30, 2012.  During the one year period, GXC only invested $880,162.  As a result of GXC’s failure to invest the full $1 million within the one year time period as required by the escrow agreement, GXC was in default under the escrow agreement and the 24 million shares were cancelled. The $880,162 paid by GXC to the Company was deemed to be the cost of the 1,189,300 shares of the Company’s common stock that was already held by GXC.

As per our accounting records, the Company had $242,000 with the offer to purchase such property at $1,850,000 plus scheduled payments for the past due rent. The owner’s bank did not allow him to sell the property to the Company and/or anyone. We went to mediation. The owner’s legal team and our legal team settled for $115,000 with the contingency to pay the goodwill amount of $15,000 by September 12, 2015. We did. The Company has an additional six months to complete the remaining $100,000 settlement. If not paid off prior to August 12, 2016, there will be no discount and the Company shall owe the judgment balance in the amount of $325,885. The mediator, a retired judge, found in our favor. Therefore, the settlement was agreed upon by both parties. The Company did not pay the settlement agreement as of the due date and default interest at 18% is being accrued on the outstanding judgment balance.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent; eliminating the corporate Alternative


F-37



Minimum Tax and changing how existing Alternative Minimum Tax credits can be realized; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; and changing limitations on the deductibility of certain executive compensation.

In December 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses situations where the accounting is incomplete for the income tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 directs taxpayers to consider the impact of the act as “provisional” when the Company does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) to finalize the accounting for the change in tax law. Companies are provided a measurement period of up to one year to obtain, prepare, and analyze information necessary to finalize the accounting for provisional amounts or amounts that cannot be estimated.

However, so long as at least 50% of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock originally issued remains outstanding, the Company may not, without the affirmative vote or the written consent of the holders of at least 51% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, (i) create, authorize or issue any equity security, or any security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security, unless such security is junior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in terms of dividend and liquidation preference; or (ii) increase the total number of authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

be distributed among the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the common stock, collectively, as one class.

Voting . On any matter presented to stockholders for their action or consideration, each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast 20 votes per share. Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Series B Certificate of Designation, the holders shall vote together with the holders of shares of common stock as a single class.

Conversion. Each holder of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may, at holder’s option and at any time, convert any or all such shares into shares of common stock.

Redemption. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is not redeemable.

During 2018, the Company has received conversion notices on convertible notes totaling $68,460, plus accrued interest which will be converted into shares of the Company's common stock at conversion prices between $0.015 and $0.03.

GeneThera, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Cons olidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2017

 

 

Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

The consolidated financial statements include GeneThera, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GeneThera, Inc. (Colorado) (collectively, the “Company”).  The Company has a long standing research collaboration with GTI Research. GTI Research is assisting the Company in managing the robotic technology project. The Company’s CEO is also collaborating with this project in order for the Company’s research and development to finally become commercial in order to generate revenues.

The Company is a biotechnology company that develops molecular assays for the detection of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases and genetically modified organisms.

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 and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents  

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, it is a controlled subsidiary. Intercompany accounts are eliminated upon consolidation.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or lease terms.  

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

Revenue Recognition

There were no revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 –  Compensation – Stock Compensation . The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based


F-45



awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 740 - Income Taxes . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are presented in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 –  Earnings per Share , and are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. As the Company is in a loss position, any calculation of the dilutive effects of the Company’s convertible securities would reduce the loss per share amount, and, as such, the Company will not perform the calculation. The weighted average potentially dilutive shares underlying the Company’s convertible securities excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as they would be anti-dilutive were 175,213,497 and 170,285,510 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Leases .   In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and created a new Topic 842,  Leases  (the “New Lease Standard”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840,  Leases . The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. The Company has not finalized its assessment but believes this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.   The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for the Company’s operating lease which commenced in 2018.

Note 2 – Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,390,398 and negative working capital of $7,306,165 as of March 31, 2017. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 – Accrued Expenses

The following is the breakdown of the Company’s accrued expenses as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

F-48



of shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes.  In order to resolve this dispute, the Company and GXC agreed to issue a total of 24 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the name of GXC; provided that GXC deposit such shares into an escrow account with an escrow agent.  Under the terms of the escrow agreement, these shares would only be released to GXC if GXC invested a an additional $1 million into the Company within one year, which ended on September 30, 2012.  During the one year period, GXC only invested $880,162.  As a result of GXC’s failure to invest the full $1 million within the one year time period as required by the escrow agreement, GXC was in default under the escrow agreement and the 24 million shares were cancelled. The $880,162 paid by GXC to the Company was deemed to be the cost of the 1,189,300 shares of the Company’s common stock that was already held by GXC.

As per our accounting records, the Company had $242,000 with the offer to purchase such property at $1,850,000 plus scheduled payments for the past due rent. The owner’s bank did not allow him to sell the property to the Company and/or anyone. We went to mediation. The owner’s legal team and our legal team settled for $115,000 with the contingency to pay the goodwill amount of $15,000 by September 12, 2015. We did. The Company has an additional six months to complete the remaining $100,000 settlement. If not paid off prior to August 12, 2016, there will be no discount and the Company shall owe the judgment balance in the amount of $325,885. The mediator, a retired judge, found in our favor. Therefore, the settlement was agreed upon by both parties. The Company did not pay the settlement agreement as of the due date and default interest at 18% is being accrued on the outstanding judgment balance.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent; eliminating the corporate Alternative


F-49



Minimum Tax and changing how existing Alternative Minimum Tax credits can be realized; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; and changing limitations on the deductibility of certain executive compensation.

In December 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses situations where the accounting is incomplete for the income tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 directs taxpayers to consider the impact of the act as “provisional” when the Company does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) to finalize the accounting for the change in tax law. Companies are provided a measurement period of up to one year to obtain, prepare, and analyze information necessary to finalize the accounting for provisional amounts or amounts that cannot be estimated.
