Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

This annual report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “plan,” “future,” “continue, “and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations or forecasts of future events, can be affected by inaccurate assumptions, and are subject to various business risks and known and unknown uncertainties, a number of which are beyond our control. Therefore, actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this document, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

PART I

 

Item 1. BUSINESS

 

HISTORY OF OUR COMPANY

 

The Greater Cannabis Company, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed in March 2014 as a limited liability company under the name, The Greater Cannabis Company, LLC. The Company remained a wholly owned subsidiary of Sylios Corp until March 2017. The Company’s initial business plan was to concentrate on cannabis related investment and development opportunities through its online retail store, direct equity investments, joint ventures, licensing agreements or acquisitions. Our current operations are focused on our online store, GCC Superstore.

 

On July 31, 2018, the Company entered into and consummated a voluntary share exchange transaction with Green C Corporation, a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario (“Green C”) and the shareholders of Green C (the “Selling Shareholders”) pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement by and among the Company, Green C and the Selling Shareholders (the “Exchange Agreement”).

 

In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 9,411,998 shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 (the “Shares”) to the Selling Shareholders and certain individuals named below (collectively, the “Shareholder Group”) in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Green C (the “Exchange Transaction”). As a result of the Exchange Transaction, the Selling Shareholders acquired 29.67% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock, Green C became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the Company acquired 100% of the business and operations of Green C.

 

After the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement, we switched our business model in fiscal 2018 and no longer intended to pursue E-commerce, advertising, licensing (except as specified below) or direct investment operations. We are now engaged in the development and commercialization of innovative cannabinoid therapeutics using our proprietary delivery system. Our mission is to bring our products to the global market through partnerships with leading cannabis and pharmaceutical companies, for the benefit of patients and consumers.

 

From July 2018 through mid-2021, Greater Cannabis focused on commercializing its own and licensed technologies worldwide for transmucosal and transdermal delivery of legal medical or recreational cannabis (other than in the field of oral care) and cannabinoids (“CBD”) (. While part of the cannabis family, CBD, which contains less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”), the psychoactive compound that produces the “high” in marijuana, is distinguished from cannabis by its use, physical appearance and lower THC concentration (cannabis generally has a THC level of 10% or more). The Company’s initial product was an oral transmucosal patch platform which provides for loaded actives to be absorbed by the buccal mucosa into the body. Although the Company was able to launch the product and received some limited initial orders, Greater Cannabis management ultimately elected to pursue other opportunities, which they believed offered the Company greater potential for growth and ultimate profitability.

 

Accordingly, on October 19, 2021 the Company entered into a license agreement with Shaare Zedek Scientific Ltd. (“SZS”), the technology transfer arm of Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center (SZMC). The license agreement covers the license of SZS’s novel cannabinoid therapeutic focused on treatment of autism, schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Shaare Zedek Medical Center, founded in 1901, is one of the largest multidisciplinary research hospitals in Israel with 1,000 beds and over 850,000 patient visits a year. The SZMC Center for Research and Development has over 300 annual publications of investigator initiated studies in medical journals in addition to almost 160 clinical trials.

 

Accompanying the license agreement is a joint research and development agreement, which will focus on continuing the clinical program spearheaded by Dr. Adi Aran, M.D., Director of Pediatric Neurology at SZMC, Board Member of the Israeli Society for Pediatric Neurology, and co-inventor of the novel cannabinoid therapy. Dr. Aran is a world renowned expert in cannabis research and pediatric neurology and was the principal investigator of the first ever cannabis research study conducted on autistic children.

 

Dr. Aran’s pioneering study assessed safety, tolerability and efficacy of CBD based medical cannabis as an adjuvant therapy for refractory behavioral problems in children with ASD. The results provided very compelling evidence that medical cannabis is an effective therapy for children on the autism spectrum. Conditions in 80% of the children improved, with 62% of parents reporting substantial improvements. Half of the children had improved communication and 40% reported a decrease in anxiety. The same children had not shown improvement with conventional drug therapies. Dr. Aran and his team have now developed a novel combination therapy that is believed to be significantly more effective than the cannabis-only formulation that had been used in the aforementioned study. The Company will continue to further develop this therapeutic and conduct clinical studies to further substantiate its safety and efficacy beginning in neuropsychiatric disorders.

 

The clinical studies of the therapeutic are expected to require an investment of up to $1,000,000 and up to two years to finalize.

 

The Company’s business plan is to (i) conduct clinical studies on and commercialize the cannabinoid-based therapeutic and (ii) concentrate on cannabis related investment and development opportunities through direct equity investments, joint ventures, licensing agreements or acquisitions.

 

Our principal executive office is located at The Greater Cannabis Company, Inc., 2833 Smith Avenue Suite 333, Baltimore, MD 21209, and our telephone number is (443) 738-4051.

 

Competition

 

There are a number of other companies operating in the cannabis space. Such companies range from producers of cannabis plants to makers of cannabis-based edible products to developers of different methods of cannabis delivery. Known competitors in our space include Jazz Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: JAZZ) and Zynerba Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ZYNE).

Research and Development

 

The Company is involved in additional research and development of innovative cannabinoid based therapeutics. The Company expects to develop new formulations around cannabinoid therapeutics and intends to file more patents to protect the intellectual property resulting from that R&D. To support these efforts, the Company will allocate additional funds of approximately $250,000 from financing proceeds to research and development, sample productions and preclinical studies.

 

Government Regulation

 

Cannabis is currently a Schedule I controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”) and is, therefore, illegal under federal law. Even in those states in which the use of cannabis has been legalized pursuant to state law, its use, possession or cultivation remains a violation of federal law. A Schedule I controlled substance is defined as one that has no currently accepted medical use in the United States, a lack of safety for use under medical supervision and a high potential for abuse. The U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) defines Schedule I controlled substances as “the most dangerous drugs of all the drug schedules with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence.” If the federal government decides to enforce the CSA in Colorado with respect to cannabis, persons that are charged with distributing, possessing with intent to distribute or growing cannabis could be subject to fines and/or terms of imprisonment, the maximum being life imprisonment and a $50 million fine.

 

Notwithstanding the CSA, as of the date of this filing, 33 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories of Guam and Puerto Rico allow their residents to use medical cannabis and 11 states have legalized recreational marijuana. Such state and territorial laws are in conflict with the federal CSA, which makes cannabis use and possession illegal at the federal level.

 

In light of such conflict between federal laws and state laws regarding cannabis, the previous administration under President Obama had effectively stated that it was not an efficient use of resources to direct federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state-designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical cannabis. For example, the prior DOJ Deputy Attorney General of the Obama administration, James M. Cole, issued a memorandum (the “Cole Memo”) to all United States Attorneys providing updated guidance to federal prosecutors concerning cannabis enforcement under the CSA (see “-The Cole Memo”). In addition, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) provided guidelines (the “FinCEN Guidelines”) on February 14, 2014, regarding how financial institutions can provide services to cannabis-related businesses consistent with their Bank Secrecy Act obligations).

Cole Memo

 

Because of the discrepancy between the laws in some states, which permit the distribution and sale of medical and recreational cannabis, from federal law that prohibits any such activities, DOJ Deputy Attorney General James M. Cole issued the Cole Memo concerning cannabis enforcement under the CSA. The Cole Memo guidance applies to all of the DOJ’s federal enforcement activity, including civil enforcement and criminal investigations and prosecutions, concerning cannabis in all states.

 

The Cole Memo reiterates Congress’s determination that cannabis is a dangerous drug and that the illegal distribution and sale of cannabis is a serious crime that provides a significant source of revenue to large-scale criminal enterprises, gangs, and cartels. The Cole Memo notes that the DOJ is committed to enforcement of the CSA consistent with those determinations. It also notes that the DOJ is committed to using its investigative and prosecutorial resources to address the most significant threats in the most effective, consistent, and rational way. In furtherance of those objectives, the Cole Memo provides guidance to DOJ attorneys and law enforcement to focus their enforcement resources on persons or organizations whose conduct interferes with any one or more of the following important priorities (the “Enforcement Priorities”) in preventing:

 

  the distribution of cannabis to minors;
     
  revenue from the sale of cannabis from going to criminal enterprises, gangs, and cartels;
     
  the diversion of cannabis from states where it is legal under state law in some form to other states;
     
  state-authorized cannabis activity from being used as a cover or pretext for the trafficking of other illegal drugs or other illegal activity;
     
  violence and the use of firearms in the cultivation and distribution of cannabis;
     
  drugged driving and the exacerbation of other adverse public health consequences associated with cannabis use;
     
  the growing of cannabis on public lands and the attendant public safety and environmental dangers posed by cannabis production on public lands; and
     
  cannabis possession or use on federal property.

 

4

 

 

We intend to conduct rigorous due diligence to verify the legality of all activities that we engage in and ensure that our activities do not interfere with any of the Enforcement Priorities set forth in the Cole Memo.

 

The Cole Memo is meant only as a guide for United States Attorneys and does not alter in any way the Department of Justice’s authority to enforce Federal law, including Federal laws relating to cannabis, regardless of state law.

 

Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018

 

The federal Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018, signed into law on December 20, 2018, along with the Agricultural Act of 2014, the corresponding Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 provisions (as extended by resolution into 2018) and related state law, provide for the cultivation, processing, manufacturing and sale of hemp-derived products, as part of agricultural pilot programs and/or state plans adopted by individual states, including Colorado. However, there can be no assurance that new legislation or regulations may be introduced at either the federal and/or state level which, if passed, would impose substantial new regulatory requirements on the manufacture, packaging, labeling, advertising and distribution and sale of hemp-derived products. New legislation or regulations may require the reformulation, elimination or relabeling of certain products to meet new standards and revisions to certain sales and marketing materials and it is possible that the costs of complying with these new regulatory requirements could be material.

 

FDA

 

The use of our technology may be subject to pre-approval by the FDA for certain applications, or equivalent regulatory body approval in other jurisdictions. If so, obtaining FDA and other approvals will require a substantial investment of funds and may take years. In such case, we intend to rely on our sublicensees or strategic partners to fund and undertake any required approval process. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully obtain any such required regulatory approvals needed to enter certain markets or market our technology for certain applications.

 

We also may be required to comply with FDA and other federal, state and foreign regulations regarding safety, dosing and other similar matters.

 

Employees

 

We have one person providing us services on a full-time basis, our chief executive officer.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, disclosure of this Item is not required.

 

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

 

None

 

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

 

We currently lease office space at 15 Walker Street, Suite 101, Baltimore, Maryland 21208 from our chief executive officer, Aitan Zacharin, for no consideration. Our lease with Mr. Zacharin is terminable at will.

We believe that our facilities are adequate for our current needs and that, if required, we will be able to expand our current space or locate suitable new office space and obtain a suitable replacement for our executive and administrative headquarters.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We know of no pending proceedings to which any director, member of senior management, or affiliate is either a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us.

 

None of our executive officers or directors have (i) been involved in any bankruptcy proceedings within the last five years, (ii) been convicted in or has pending any criminal proceedings (other than traffic violations and other minor offenses), (iii) been subject to any order, judgment or decree enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activity or (iv) been found to have violated any Federal, state or provincial securities or commodities law and such finding has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

PART II

 

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMPANY’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

 

Market Information

 

Our shares of common stock have been quoted on the OTCQB tier of the over-the-counter market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. under the symbol “GCAN” since August 2018. Such market is extremely limited. We can provide no assurance that our shares of common stock will be continued to be quoted on the OTC or another exchange, or if traded, that the current public market will be sustainable.

 

Holders of Record

 

On the date of this annual report, there were 337 holders of record of our common stock, as reported by the Company’s transfer agent. In computing the number of holders of record, each broker-dealer and clearing corporation holding shares on behalf of its customers is counted as a single stockholder and accordingly, the Company believes that the number of beneficial owners of its common stock is significantly higher.

 

Dividends

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock nor do we anticipate paying any in the foreseeable future. Furthermore, we expect to retain any future earnings to finance our operations and expansion. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

 

Equity Compensation Plans

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

 

Results of Operations

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company generated $0 in annual revenue compared to $12,630 in 2021.

 

Cost of sales was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $12,655 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Our operating expenses in the year ended December 31, 2022 amounted to $174,535 as compared to $343,121 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Our net loss in the year ended December 31, 2022 was $357,768 as compared to the net loss of $602,226 during the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The amounts presented in the financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or our financial position. Amounts shown for costs and expenses reflect historical cost and do not necessarily represent replacement cost. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had $270,030 cash on hand at December 31, 2022, compared to 377,520 at December 31, 2021.

 

At December 31, 2022, we had $243,437 in principal amount of outstanding convertible notes.

 

Please see NOTE E - NOTES PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES for further information.

 

The proceeds from loans, convertible debentures as well as cash on hand is being used to fund the operations of our current operations.

 

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

   31-Dec-22   31-Dec-21 
Net cash (used in) operating activities  $(107,490)  $(235,433)
Net cash (used in) investing activities   -    - 
Net cash provided by financing activities   -    500,000 
Net increase (decrease) in cash  $(107,490)  $264,567 

 

Trends

 

The factors that will most significantly affect our future operating results, liquidity and capital resources will be:

 

  Government regulation of the marijuana industry;
  Revision of Federal banking regulations for the marijuana industry; and
  Legalization of the use of marijuana for medical or recreational use in other states.

 

Other than the foregoing, we do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on:

 

  revenues or expenses;
  any material increase or decrease in liquidity; or
  expected sources and uses of cash.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The SEC issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies” suggesting that companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In Financial Reporting Release No. 60, the SEC has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, we have identified the following significant policies as critical to the understanding of our financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. Our management expects to make judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Greater Cannabis Company, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Greater Cannabis Company, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2022, the related statements of operations, stockholder’s deficit, and cash flows, for the period ended December 31, 2022, 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, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Material Uncertainty Relating to Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the company will continue as a going concern as disclosed in Note 3 to the financial statement, the Company has continuously incurred a net loss of $(360,268) for the year ended December 31, 2022, working capital deficit of (555,247) and an accumulated deficit of $(4,292,902) as at December 31, 2022. The continuation of the Company as a going concern through December 31, 2022, is dependent upon improving the profitability and the continuing financial support from its stockholders. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due.

 

These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

THE GREATER CANNABIS COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

 

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Operations

 

The Greater Cannabis Company, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed in March 2014 as a limited liability company under the name, The Greater Cannabis Company, LLC. The Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Sylios Corp (“Sylios”) until March 10, 2017.

 

On July 31, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock of Green C Corporation (“Green C”) in exchange for 9,411,998 newly issued shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Exchange”). Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 50 shares of common stock and is entitled to vote 50 votes per share on all matters as a class with holders of common stock. Since after the Exchange was consummated, the former shareholders of Green C and their designees owned approximately 94% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of the Company, Green C is the acquirer for accounting purposes. Prior to the Exchange, the Company had no assets and nominal business operations. Accordingly, the Exchange has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer, Green C, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the assets, liabilities and operations of Green C from its inception on December 21, 2017 to July 31, 2018 and combined with the Company thereafter.

 

Green C was incorporated on December 21, 2017 under the laws of the Province of Ontario Canada with its principal place of business in North York, Ontario.

 

Green C was the owner of an exclusive, worldwide license for an eluting transmucosal patch platform (“ETP”) for non-invasive drug delivery in the cannabis field as further described in the exclusive license agreement dated June 21, 2018 with Pharmedica Ltd. (see Note J).

 

After the consummation of the above-described transactions, the Company switched its business model in fiscal 2018 and no longer intended to pursue E-commerce, advertising, licensing (except as specified below) or direct investment operations. Instead, the Company is now engaged in the development and commercialization of innovative cannabinoid therapeutics.

 

From July 2018 through mid-2021, the Company focused on commercializing its own and licensed technologies worldwide for transmucosal and transdermal delivery of legal medical or recreational cannabis (other than in the field of oral care) and cannabinoids. The Company’s initial product was an oral transmucosal patch platform which provides for loaded actives to be absorbed by the buccal mucosa into the body. Although the Company was able to launch the product and received some limited initial orders, the Company’s management ultimately elected to pursue other opportunities which they believed offered the Company greater potential for growth and ultimate profitability.

 

Accordingly, on October 19, 2021 the Company entered into a license agreement with Shaare Zedek Scientific Ltd. (“SZS”), the technology transfer arm of Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center (SZMC). The license agreement covers the license of SZS’s novel cannabinoid therapeutic focused on treatment of autism, schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and other neuropsychiatric disorders.

 

Accompanying the license agreement is a joint research and development agreement, which will focus on continuing the clinical program spearheaded by Dr. Adi Aran, M.D. Director of Pediatric Neurology at SZMC, Board Member of the Israeli Society for Pediatric Neurology, and co-inventor of the novel cannabinoid therapy.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Greater Cannabis Company, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary Biocanrx, Inc.

 

F-7

 

 

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Investments having an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash are considered to be cash equivalents. For the period presented, the Company had no in cash equivalents.

 

Income Taxes

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 - Income Taxes, the provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method. The asset and liability method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts on the financial statements. The resulting deferred tax assets or liabilities are adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

We expect to recognize the financial statement benefit of an uncertain tax position only after considering the probability that a tax authority would sustain the position in an examination. For tax positions meeting a “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount to be recognized in the financial statements will be the benefit expected to be realized upon settlement with the tax authority. For tax positions not meeting the threshold, no financial statement benefit is recognized. As of December 31, 2022, we had no uncertain tax positions. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as general and administrative expenses. We currently have no foreign federal or state tax examinations nor have we had any foreign federal or state examinations since our inception. To date, we have not incurred any interest or tax penalties.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We follow ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing US GAAP that requires the use of fair value measurements that establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC Topic 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

 

F-8

 

 

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

 

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. Except for derivative liabilities, we had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We evaluate convertible notes payable, stock options, stock warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.

 

The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or other expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

 

Long-lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets are periodically reviewed for impairment. We test for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Impairment evaluations involve management’s estimates on asset useful lives and future cash flows. Actual useful lives and cash flows could be different from those estimated by management which could have a material effect on our reporting results and financial positions. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

 

F-9

 

 

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services

 

Issuances of our common stock or warrants for acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete.

 

Although situations may arise in which counter performance may be required over a period of time, the equity award granted to the party performing the service may be fully vested and non-forfeitable on the date of the agreement. As a result, in this situation in which vesting periods do not exist if the instruments are fully vested on the date of agreement, we determine such date to be the measurement date and will record the estimated fair market value of the instruments granted as a prepaid expense and amortize such amount to expense over the contract period. When it is appropriate for us to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is measured at the then-current fair values.

 

Related Parties

 

A party is considered to be related to us if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with us. Related parties also include our principal owners, our management, members of the immediate families of our principal owners and our management and other parties with which we may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties, or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests, is also a related party.

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, in accordance with the following five-step process:

 

  Identify the contract(s) with a customer
  Identify the performance obligations
  Determine the transaction price
  Allocate the transaction price
  Recognize revenue when the performance obligations are met

 

During the periods presented, all revenue was from sales of cannabis products. The Company has determined the sole performance obligation to be the delivery of the purchased goods to the customers, and as such, recognizes revenue at the time the customer takes possession.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. For the periods presented, we had no advertising costs.

 

Loss per Share

 

We compute net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260. The ASC specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for loss per share for entities with publicly held common stock.

 

Basic loss per share amounts is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net loss per share are excluded from the calculation. For the periods presented, the Company excluded 470,599,900 shares relating to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (see Note H), shares relating to convertible notes payable to third parties (Please see NOTE F - NOTES PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES for further information) and shares relating to outstanding warrants (Please see NOTE H - CAPITAL STOCK AND WARRANTS for further information) from the calculation of diluted shares outstanding as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)”. This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. As well as amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. In addition, this ASU improves and amends the related EPS guidance. This standard is effective for us on July 1, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is either a modified retrospective method or a fully retrospective method of transition. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on our financial statements.

 

On July 13, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-11. Among other things, ASU 2017-11 provides guidance that eliminates the requirement to consider “down round” features when determining whether certain financial instruments or embedded features are indexed to an entity’s stock and need to be classified as liabilities. ASU 2017-11 provides for entities to recognize the effect of a down round feature only when it is triggered and then as a dividend and a reduction to income available to common stockholders in basic earnings per share. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

 

F-11

 

 

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and address how an entity should assess whether it is the principal or the agent in contracts that include three or more parties. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2014-09 (discussed above). ASU 2016-08 has had no impact on our Financial statements for the periods presented.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, to clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: 1) identifying performance obligations, and 2) the licensing implementation guidance. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2014-09 (discussed above). ASU 2016-10 has had no impact on our financial statements for the periods presented.

 

Other standards not presented are not deemed to be material.

 

 

NOTE B - GOING CONCERN

 

Under ASC 205-40, we have the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about our ability to meet our future obligations as they become due within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. As required by this standard, our evaluation shall initially not take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of our plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued.

 

In performing the first step of this assessment, we concluded that the following conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations as they become due. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $270,030, total current liabilities of $825,277, and negative working capital of $555,247. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we incurred a net loss of $360,268 and used $107,490 cash from operating activities. We expect to continue to incur negative cash flows until such time as our business generates sufficient cash inflows to finance our operations and debt service requirements.

 

In performing the second step of this assessment, we are required to evaluate whether our plans to mitigate the conditions above alleviate the substantial doubt about our ability to meet our obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Our future plans include securing additional funding sources.

 

There is no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available through external sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material effect on the business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing shareholders. We have therefore concluded there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern through March 2024.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE C- NOTE RECEIVABLE

 

On June 10, 2020, in anticipation of developing a CBD business with Kol Tuv Ventures, LLC (the “Borrower”) (see Note D), the Company agreed to lend the Borrower USD $50,000 to be repaid either (a) out of available cash as soon as practicable, including from sales of Bob Ross cosmetic products, or (b) on the date that is 18 months from the date thereof, whichever is earlier (the “Maturity Date”). The Loan shall not bear interest except to the extent that any part of the Loan remains outstanding as at the Maturity Date, in which case the following sentence applies. From the date after the Maturity Date and onward, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall bear interest at a rate of 2% per annum. Any payment of cash to be made by Borrower to Lender shall be applied first to outstanding principal and second to any accrued, but unpaid, interest. As of December 31, 2021, the Company recorded an allowance of doubtful account in the full amount of $36,750.

 

NOTE D – RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT

 

On January 30, 2020, the Company executed a Right of First Refusal Agreement with an entity engaged in the business of cosmetics, health, and well-being. The Agreement provided for the Company to pay Kol Tuv Ventures, LLC (“KTV”), $25,000 on January 30, 2020 (which was paid January 30,2020) and to make other investments in opportunities to be pursued by KTV and/or payments to KTV to enable KTV to pursue and secure Cannabidiol (“CBD”) opportunities. The Agreement provides the Company an exclusive right of first refusal to participate in all CBD opportunities to be pursued by KTV for a term of five years. The $25,000 cost for this Agreement is being amortized over the five year term of the Agreement.

The Conversion Price shall be, equal to 70% of the average closing price of our common stock for the five prior trading days prior to the date that a registration statement in respect of the shares into which is the FF Note is convertible is declared effective. The FF Note contains other customary terms found in like instruments for conversion price adjustments. In the case of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), the FF Note shall become immediately due and payable in an amount (the “Default Amount”) equal to the principal amount then outstanding plus accrued interest (including any Default Interest) through the date of full repayment multiplied by one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) and interest shall accrue at the rate of Default Interest.

December 31,

2021

 

Convertible Promissory Note dated March 15, 2021 and June 30, 2021 payable to FirstFire Global Opportunities Fund, LLC. Please see NOTE F – NOTES PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES for further information (i):

Due March 11, 2022

  $-   $- 
           
Total derivative liability  $-   $- 

 

The Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) contain a variable conversion feature based on the future trading price of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes is indeterminate.

 

The fair value of the derivative liability is measured at the respective issuance dates and quarterly thereafter using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used for the calculation of the derivative liability of the Notes at December 31, 2020 were (1) stock price of $.003 per share, (2) conversion price of $.00169 per share, (3) term of 0 days, (4) expected volatility of 142.94%, and (5) risk free interest rate of 0%. Assumptions used for the calculation of the derivative liability of the Notes at March 31, 2021 were (1) stock price of $.0011 per share, (2) conversion price of $.0071 per share, (3) term of 345 days, (4) expected volatility of 142.94%, and (5) risk free interest rate of .07%. As of June 30, 2021, the note no longer carries variable conversion features and as such, the derivative was reduced to zero.

 

(i)As discussed in Note A above, warrants with “down round” features (and do not contain variable conversion features) are not subject to derivative liability treatment effective January 1, 2019.

 

NOTE H - CAPITAL STOCK AND WARRANTS

NOTE J - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Pharmedica Exclusive License Agreement

 

On June 21, 2018, Green C executed an Exclusive License Agreement with Pharmedica, Ltd. (“Pharmedica”), an Israeli company, to exploit certain Pharmedica intellectual property for the development and distribution of a certain Licensed Product involved in the transmucosal delivery of medicinal or recreational cannabis. The agreement provides for Green C payments to Pharmedica of a $100,000 license fee (which was paid by 2591028 Ontario Limited, an entity affiliated with Green C’s Chief Executive Officer, on June 26, 2018) and annual royalties at a rate of 5% of the Net Sales of the Licensed Product subject to a Minimum Annual Royalty of $50,000. The agreement also provides for certain milestones to be accomplished by Green C in order for Green C to retain the license. Green C and Pharmedica each may terminate the agreement upon the occurrence of a material breach by the other party of its obligations under the agreement and such other party’s failure to remedy such breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the other party within thirty (30) days after being requested in writing to do so.

 

The Company generated only minimal revenues from this asset through December 31, 2019 and did not pay the Year 1 Minimum Annual Royalty of $50,000 due to Pharmedica. Accordingly, we recorded an impairment charge of $69,749 at December 31, 2019 and reduced the $69,749 remaining carrying value of this intangible asset to $0.

 

On September 2, 2020, Green C notified Pharmedica of Green C’s termination of the Exclusive License Agreement and Green C’s intention to wind up Green C.

 

On September 17, 2020, Pharmedica notified Green C of Pharmedica’s acceptance of Green C’s proposal to terminate the license agreement and Pharmedica’s intention not to burden Green C further. Accordingly, we recorded “Forgiveness of Royalty Payable” other income of $50,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2020 and reduced the $50,000 “Accrued Royalties” liability balance to $0.

 

Sub-License Agreement with Symtomax Unipessoal Lda

 

On July 15, 2019, the Company executed a Sub-License Agreement with Symtomax Unipessoal Lda (“Symtomax”).

The agreement provides for Symtomax payments of royalties to the Company (payable monthly) ranging from 10% to 17% of Symtomax sales of eluting patches developed from Company technology.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, Aitan Zacharin, who is our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as of December 31, 2018, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer has concluded that, based on the material weaknesses discussed below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, Aitan Zacharin, the Company’s chief executive officer, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

 

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting 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 the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2018. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment under those criteria, management has determined that, as of December 31, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

 

Our internal controls are not effective for the following reasons: (i) there is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives as management is comprised of only two persons, one of which is the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer and, (ii) the Company does not have an audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

 

In order to mitigate the foregoing material weakness, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

 

We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.

 

Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not “large accelerated filers” nor “accelerated filers” under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, there was no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Professional History of Aitan Zacharin

 

Mr. Zacharin is an experienced executive with broad knowledge in building and managing technology, biopharmaceutical, healthcare and consumer products businesses. Mr. Zacharin has founded a number of companies, and has seen them through successful listings in the public markets, with collective valuations of over $1 billion. Mr. Zacharin has been advising and investing in early to mid-stage startups, and assisting them with development, capitalization, accelerating growth, and turnaround strategies. He specializes in strategic acquisitions, structuring complex transactions, reverse mergers, and brings domestic and international experience in operations, accounting, audit preparation, due diligence, capital raising and restructuring, debt financing, and mergers and acquisitions. In 2012 he co-founded Fuse Science, an innovative biotechnology company and was responsible for growth of the business from its conceptual stage to a publicly traded CPG and biotech business with multiple subsidiaries. He structured pivotal deals with key partners, which led to the company successfully raising over $20 million to commercialize its products, including brand ambassador agreements with 26 sports celebrities, including world renowned athlete Tiger Woods. He successfully exited from the company, which had reached a $110 million valuation. In 2014, Mr. Zacharin was appointed to the Board of Directors for Mediconecta, the largest telehealth Company in Latin America serving millions of patients with on-demand, high quality healthcare. Within six months, Mr. Zacharin facilitated and negotiated an eight figure buyout offer from Teladoc (NASDAQ: TDOC), the world’s largest telehealth company, just prior to its IPO. In 2015, Mr. Zacharin became the managing partner of Secure Hosting LLC, a blockchain mining company with a co-location mining farm in North Carolina. After two years of scaling out the operations to nearly $15,000,000 in assets, he successfully structured the sale of the company to a leading publicly traded blockchain mining company. In 2017, Mr. Zacharin founded GCANRx (OTC: GCAN), a publicly traded biopharmaceutical company focused on repurposing a highly bioavailable transmucosal drug delivery system that had previously been commercialized in partnership with Novartis. Mr. Zacharin repurposed the platform technology for use in cannabinoid therapeutics. He then negotiated a worldwide exclusive license from Shaare Zedek Scientific, the licensing arm of one of Israel’s largest research hospitals, for a cannabinoid-based therapeutic used in treating neuropsychiatric disorders. The therapeutic was invented by world-renowned cannabis researcher, Dr. Adi Aran, M.D. The Company is currently in the final stages of regulatory approval for a 100 patient Phase 2 clinical study for the treatment of autism related spectrum disorders. In 2018, Mr. Zacharin became a shareholder in sports technology company, Slinger (NASDAQ: CNXA). The company manufactures an innovative, patented sports product called the Slinger Bag, which raised $1 million through a highly successful Kickstarter campaign. Mr. Zacharin was tasked by the founder to take the company public. The Company was led by the past- CEO of global tennis company Prince. Within the first 18 months of operations the company grew to a global footprint of 65 countries, signed $250 million in distribution agreements, and achieved a market cap of over $400 million. Throughout the growth of the company, Mr. Zacharin served as the head of investor relations and was instrumental in raising the company over $27 million from leading Wall Street investors, and overseeing the IR strategy, which led to the stock rising over 1,700% from its listing price. Mr. Zacharin was actively involved in Slinger’s acquisition of three companies, most notably a Softbank and Verizon Ventures backed artificial intelligence sports company for $100 million. Mr. Zacharin led the effort of putting together a team, which successfully uplisted the Company from the OTC Markets to the Nasdaq. In 2019, Mr. Zacharin joined an investor group who acquired Solstice Sunglasses, the second largest sunglasses retailer in the US, to list the company’s shares on the public markets. Mr. Zacharin led the merger of Solstice with a public vehicle, which enabled a multi-million dollar round of financing for the retailer. In 2020, Mr. Zacharin identified, structured and facilitated the acquisition of a luxury, multi-state substance abuse facility. Mr. Zacharin secured financing for the $18 million acquisition with a combination of investments from high net worth individuals and a loan facility from a speciality banking lender. The company subsequently purchased two additional drug rehab portfolios, and grew to become a leading multi-state operator in the drug rehabilitation industry. In 2021, Mr. Zacharin became the co-founder and CEO of PlasmaCure, a groundbreaking medical device company focused on R&D and commercialization of an oncology treatment licensed from GW University. Mr. Zacharin holds dual degrees from the University of South Florida. He serves in an executive capacity to two publicly listed companies, and maintains various board non-profit board appointments.

Audit Committee and Financial Expert

 

We do not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert. Our corporate financial affairs are simple at this stage of development and each financial transaction can be viewed by any officer or Director at will. We will form an audit committee if it becomes necessary as a result of growth of the Company or as mandated by public policy.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We do currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial and accounting officers.

 

Potential Conflicts of Interest

 

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent Directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our Board of Directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest, in that our Directors who are also our officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our Directors or officers.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

We have not entered into any transactions in which any of our directors, executive officers, or affiliates, including any member of an immediate family, had or are to have a direct or indirect material interest.

 

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

The following table sets forth certain information, as of April 24, 2018, with respect to any person (including any “group”, as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) who is known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities, and as to those shares of our equity securities beneficially owned by each of our directors and executive officers and all of our directors and executive officers as a group. Unless otherwise specified in the table below, such information, other than information with respect to our directors and executive officers, is based on a review of statements filed with the Securities and Exchange commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Sections 13 (d), 13 (f), and 13 (g) of the Exchange Act with respect to our common stock. As of April 24, 2018, there were 29,380,969 shares of our common stock outstanding.

 

The number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each person is determined under the rules of the Commission and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which such person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares which the individual has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days after the date hereof, through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right. Unless otherwise indicated, each person has sole investment and voting power (or shares such power with his or her spouse) with respect to the shares set forth in the following table. The inclusion herein of any shares deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares.

 

The following table lists, as at the date hereof, the number of shares of common stock of our Company that are beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to our Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each officer and director of our Company; and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership” concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

 

Name of Beneficial Owner  Common Stock
Beneficially Owned(1)
   Percentage of
Common Stock (1)(2)
 
Aitan Zacharin (3)(4)   74,166,650    10.01%

Sigalush Ventures LLC (4)   74,166,650    10.01%
Officers and directors as a Group (3)   74,166,650    10.01%

 

(1) Beneficial Ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants, convertible debt or convertible preferred shares currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days of December 31, 2022 are deemed outstanding for computing percentage of the person holding such option or warrant but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Percentages are based on a total of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, 2022, which was 732,638,436 and the shares issuable upon exercise of options, warrants exercisable, preferred stock and debt convertible on or within 60 days of december 31, 2022.

 

(2) The number of common shares outstanding used in computing the percentages is 732,638,436

 

(3) The shares included under “Officers and Directors as a Group” include those held by Aitan Zacharin, the Company’s chief executive officer. Mr. Zacharin holds 1,695,333 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 50 shares of common stock.

 

(4) These individuals are persons who received shares of Series A Preferred Shares in connection with the reverse merger described in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K dated August 3, 2018. Each of the persons who received Series A Preferred Shares agreed not to request or effect any conversions of any shares until the Company has increased its authorized shares from 500,000,000 to the greater of (i) (no less than) 600,000,000 or such number of shares as is necessary to accommodate the conversion of all Series A Preferred Shares and the then number of shares of common stock outstanding.
